But amidst this storm , another individual found themselves in
The principal and middle school teachers were under siege from of the spotlight – Gellan .

“ Hey , Carllim , did you hear ? That girl from your family — you know , not your s School , ” one boy snerrell ,
“ Man , they say it was bad – books thrown at her , water splashed , red ink poured on her chair .
And her desk ? Carved up with nasty words .
I don’t even wanna repeat them .
”
Another boy chimed in “ So , did you know about this , Calan ? Oh , and get this .
I caught our homeroom teacher watching the memory broadcast today.
I snuck a peck , and – wow .
That woman was so ugly , no wonder they bullied her .
”
At first , Caellan remained indifferent , his emotions Hat , But the last comment struck a nerve .
Before he realized it , his fist had landed squarely on The boy’s face .
“ Od What the hell , Carlland ? Why’d you hit me ? ”
Carllan glanced at his clenched Est , confused by his own reaction .
Caellan said , “ Ich , don’t ask stupid questions .
I’m heading home ”
Just as he turned to leave , a girl nearby let out a stariled gasp .
The girl said , “ Oh my god ! Elysia .
.
Elysia tried to kill herself ? Not She cant – she can’t be dead ! “
The girl had deadly been secretly watching the broadcast during class .
She barely had time to wipe the tears from her eyes before Caellan snatched .
her phone

smet Caellan’s intense gaze , her courage faltered .
Give that back she protested , attempting to reclaim it .
as her eyes met
Normally , she wouldn’t dare challenge fum – the school’s infamous bully , known for his ruthless punches .
But today , the thought of what Elysia hal endured gave her unexpected strength .
The girl said .
“ If you’re so tough , why not watch it on the classroom’s multimedia system ‘ Or better yet , get your fifty confiscated phones back from the teacher .
Aren’t you supposed to be fearless ? What are you scared of now ? ”
Cellan ignored her .
His eyes remained glued to the screen , fixated on the image of Elysia stabbing herself in the chest .
There she was , her hands gripping the knife’s handle like she was in prayer , her head resting against the gravestone .
Blood had school uniform , the same kind he wore .
soaked through her
Despite the gruesome scene , her face carried a serene , pale beauty marred only by the crimson streak at her lips – a haunting mix of tranquility and despair .
“ Wait , that’s supposed to be Elysia ? No way .
She was never this pretty .
If she’s dead , then who pushed Rowena down the stairs ? ”
“ Obviously fake .
Look at the blood – it’s way too saged .
Her face Totally plastic surgery .
The boys around him sneered , dissecting the image .
The girl clenched her fists , ready to lash out at them , but Caellan beat her to it .
With a few swift punches , he sent them scattering
Breathing heavily , he muttered to himself , “ I can’t believe I just … Damn it .
Maybe it’s better she’s gone .
At least she won’t cause any more trouble for my sister
He was about to return the phone when the screen shifted to a hospital room .
“ She’s alive ! Elysia’s alive ! ” the girl exclaimed in relief.
“ If you hate her so much , just give me back my phone .

Chellan raised an eyebrow and sneered .
“ Elysia ‘ That old hag’s five years older than me .
Honestly , it’s a shame that knife didn’t finish her off .
All that drama for nothing .
He tossed the phone back at her carelessly .
But the girl , her patience wom thin , grabbed him by the collar and growled , “ Let’s make a bet .
Caellan .
I bet that Elysia never hurt anyone .
If I’m right , you’ll apologize to her during the live broadcast .
If I lose , I’ll get all fifty of your confiscated phones back from the teacher , Deal ?
Caellan smirked , her confidence puzzling him , “ What could be so compelling in Elysia’s memories ? he thought .
Callan said , “ Deal .
”
The girl , already smug with anticipation , pulled out a VR headset from her big
She said , “ You’ll use this .
No way I’m watching it with you .
”
Looking at the 700 thousand dollars she had received , the girl could not help but smile sinisterly .
She thought .
“ It is easy to deal with this idior :
Inside the hospital room .
Elysia sat in silence for a long time before the doctor entered .
“ You’re awake ! That’s incredible , the doctor exclaimed
Elysia , pale and frail , glanced at the bandages wrapped tightly around her chest .
As she attempted to sit up , Carllan winced audibly .
The VR headset’s sensory feedback system lud been set to 100 % intensity
[ Wait , who’s the guy on the extra screen ? Does anyon
anyone know him ! ]
[ I do ! That’s Callan , Rupert’s son with his second wife .
He’s been lurking in the live streams for days
Why is he even here ? Mind your business , dude .
]
Caellan’s pained howls continued unabated , but Torin paid him no mind .
He had long since lost any curiosity about Caellan’s suffering – his focus was solely on what would happen to Elysia next
Even Fenwick , who usually got along well with Caellan , didn’t bother to call him or offer any reminders .
He simply thought .
Let it be … “ Who … who brought me here ? ” Elysia’s voice , hoarse and faint , barely broke the silence .
Her face was still pale as death , but in the depths of her weary eyes flickered a faint glimmer of light – a stark contrast to the lifeless void she had displayed when she made her fateful decision
It was as though she was holding onto a sliver of hope , yearning for an answer .
But the doctor’s words cruelly extinguished that faint light .
The doctor said , “ Of course it’s the cemetery administrator .
Why can’t you learn to commit suicide at such a young age ? No matter how much you miss your deceased relatives , you can’t !
you
realize how lucky you are ? If the blade on that knife hadn’t been soft , or if its tip hadn’t bent the other way , that four – inch stab could have pierced straight into your heart .
Just one more inch , and you would have .
.
Alright .
Rest up .
If you have questions , save them for when … for when you’re ready ”
The doctor wasn’t sure whether Elysia’s suicide attempt stemmed from a falling – out with her family , but he chose to tread carefully , determined to
sure she wouldn’t try again .
They spoke a line longer before the doctor , interrupted by the ringing of his phone , excused himself .
But the voices didn’t stop .
“ Hello , this is a doctor from Stoneford First Hospital’s surgical department .
Am I speaking with Valerie’s husband ! I received your contact information from the cemetery manager .
I’ve tried calling you a few times earlier but couldn’t get through .
”
“ Apologies , I was busy earlier , came a measured response from the other end .
“ But my wife has been gone for many years now Why are you calling me ?

It was unmistakably Rupert’s voice .
The doctor replied immediately , “ Elysia is your daughter , correct ? She’s currently in our care .
Could you come to the hospital ? ” In the he
hospital room , Elysia visibly tensed at the mention of her father .
Her hands clenched reflexively , the small motion enough to send a sharp wave of pain through her .
Even Caellan , for all his exaggerated agony .
winced sympathetically .

came next hit harder than any physical pain .
Rupert’s voice carried coldly through the phone .
“ Tell Elysia this .
Fenwick has already told me everything she’s done .
If she keeps making up lies , Til disown her for good .
She can forget about being my daughter .
Tell her to pack up and come home immediately .
”
There was a brief pause , then be continued , his tone cutting .
“ Staying out all night is one thing , but pretending to have a doctor call me ? Does she think I’m a fool ”
The pain in Caellan’s chest was nothing compared to the ache in his heart as he gasped for air
In the past half a minute , the doctor had said something and Rupert believed him .
Rupert said , “ Alright .
I’ll come over and take a look .
If you dare to lie to me
“ Daddy ! Daddy ! ” Rowena chirped , interrupting .
“ Elysia told me she was going to the hospital to get an abortion … Should we go pick her up ? Maybe .
we should bring her some supplements ? ”
The doctor , who had been listening to the conversation , froze in disbelief at Rowena’s casual remark .
The absurdity of it stunned him speechless .
Elysia , who should have been in bed , ripped the needle from her arm , her bloodied hand leaving a trail as she bolted out the door .
She reached the hallway , desperate to explain , but by then .
Rupert had already ended the call in a fit of rage .
No matter how many times the tried to call him afterward .
