Chapter 59
â Actually .
.
â Just as Fenwick seemed about to speak , the broadcast abruptly changed , and a male voice overlapped with Fenwickâs live audio ,
â Bullying ? Elysia , are you kidding me ? Showing me some edited photos and claiming youâre being bullied ? â
Fenwick barely glanced at the photos in her hand before swatting them to the floor .
A faint smirk of disdain curled at the corner of his lips , his eyes brimming with doubt and mockery .
His gaze , sharp and mocking , pierced through Elyssa like a blade , leaving her with a cold, stinging pain
â Not a single mark on you .
Whoâs going to believe this ? If youâre going to take it , at least make it convincing , â Fenwick said .
Elysia staggered back , her face pale with disbelief .
She couldnât understand how Fenwick could say such things .
When Rowena was around , she expected his favoritism â Rowena cried , lied , and twisted the truth .
Elysia thought , That he still didnât believe me .
Did he truly need to see my wounds laid bare to believe me ?
Elysia said .
â Do you really t
think bullying is only physical , Fenwick ! â
Her voice hoarse and trembling , Elysia turned and fled downstairs .
She returned moments later with a plastic bag containing the dismembered rabbit , along with the death threat notes , and held them out in front of
Fenwick
â Eugh â Flysia , could you be any more disgusting ! Killing a rabbit , seribbling a bunch of threats â what does this even prove ? That youâre getting more twisted by the day ? Or is this your way of threatening me ? Did you hurt Rowena again ! â
Fenwick grew increasingly agitated as he spoke , until he was practically
shouting at her .
With a forceful swipe , he knocked the evidence out of Elysiaâs hands .
Fenwick said , â Donât ever let me hear you call me Fenwick again .
â
The reality was like a heavy hammer , delivering the most crushing blow to Elysia .
It shattered the last sliver of hope and illusion she had been clinging to , leaving her completely lost and disoriented .
As she watched Ferwick hurriedly rush to the door to wait for Rowenaâs tutoring session to end .
Elysia stood frozen in place , overwhelmed by confusion and despair .
Her heart felt as though it were being torn apart , the pain sharp and unrelenting .
She muttered to herself , her voice trembling .
â So ⦠it wasnât because of Rowena â Even though I chose a time when Rowena wasnât around to come to ⦠him .
â
Fenwick is beyond saving .
Elysia , you deserve better )
[ Is she naive ? Yes , but what other choice did she have ? Every adult at school ignored her , and her family â her last resort â turned out no different .
] [ The saddest part ? That snake cared for her more than any of these so â called relatives .
Greenie for MVE ]
[ Torin , didnât you claim Elysia never came to you for help ? What is this , then ! Huh ? EXPLAIN ! ]
Torin turned in disbelief toward the screen
Fenwick , meanwhile , sat with his face burning red , too ashamed to meet anyoneâs gaze .
He hung his head low , his lips trembling as he whispered faintly .
â Im .
Iâm sorry :
Though his voice was barely audible , it struck Turin like a dagger straight to the heart .
It was all true .
Elysia had reached out to them , and Fenwick had extinguished her last glimmer of hope .
â Fenwick , why did you do that ? â Torin demanded , his voice trembling with rage .
â If it werenât for you , Elysia wouldnât have worn that stupid thing, wouldnât have been noticed by the kidnappers , wouldnât have been sold to those monsters for those experiments .
â
Fenwick was now crying openly , his face wet with tears .
Finally , he broke down and yelled , â Itâs your fault ! Elysia liked you more than me .
She never wanted to be around me .
I hated her â whatâs wrong with that ? â

Whoa , just tuned in and caught this massive bombshell â Fenwick admits inferiority complex toward Torin ? }
[ This isnât even the biggest reveal .
Fenwickâs baggage runs deeper than this: ]
Poor Elysia .
No wonder she avoided Fenwick .
That jealousy is suffocating :
