Unable to suppress the panic in his heart any longer. He quickly dialed the phone, hoping to explain.
But the phone still wouldn’t connect. His mind was in turmoil, so he turned to find Evan, only to discover that his number and contact information had all been blocked as well.
Drake’s lips trembled slightly and his eyes reddened. “Evan, do you think Narissa saw the news online and is angry with us?”
Evan stared blankly at his phone, his body shaking, barely able to stand. “Drake, come and see what this is.”
On the screen, a video showed Narissa locked in a private prison, her hands tied. She was repeatedly electrocuted by a man, her whole body convulsing in pain.
In the video, Narissa, bruised and battered, collapsed before the man, writhing in agony on the ground. She hoarsely begged, “I’m sorry, I was wrong. Please, let me go. Please…”
The man viciously kicked her, sneering down at her with disdain. “This isn’t enough. Miss Liora specifically instructed us to treat you well here.”
Drake was frozen in shock. His eyes turned red with fury and veins bulged from his forehead. He wanted to charge through the screen and kill every man in that room.
But he couldn’t. He was powerless, unable to do anything as he watched helplessly, the sounds of Narissa’s agony echoing in his ears.
In that moment, his hatred for Liora grew to an overwhelming intensity. And Evan, standing beside him, felt no less anguish. He had always believed that Narissa was only meant to be locked up there for a few months, never imagining the torment she had been enduring during
that time.
He suddenly recalled the day Narissa was released. He had originally planned to go with Drake to pick her up, but his father stopped him.
“Narissa is always reckless, constantly causing trouble for Liora. Liora has only just managed to settle into the Sterling Family. If Narissa returns, she’ll definitely cause trouble again. This time, just don’t go pick her up. Consider it a lesson for her.”
So, he agreed and genuinely believed that Narissa was strong–willed, while Liora was too delicate. It made sense to teach her a lesson and remind her of her place.
But now, the scene in front of him was the complete opposite of what he had imagined. It shattered all of his assumptions. Liora was not weak at all. In fact, she was cold–hearted and
ruthless.
She had bribed people to torment Narissa, who was alone and helpless in the prison. What shocked him even more was that the assassination attempt on her life, which nearly resulted in her death, was also a scheme orchestrated by Liora herself.
In the recorded conversation, Liora’s voice carried a mocking laugh. “You help me put on

In the recorded conversation, Liora’s voice carried a mocking laugh. “You help me put on a show, try to kill me and say it was Narissa who hired you. Once it’s done, I’ll give you four hundred thousand dollars.”
The man’s voice was filled with surprise. “But isn’t she your sister?”
Liora sneered, her tone cold and malicious. “Exactly because she’s my sister, I have to do this. She’s been spoiled and pampered her whole life. It’s time for her to see the harshness of the world. Once she’s locked up, everything will belong to me. Whether it’s Liora or Evan, they’ll all be mine.”
Upon hearing this, Evan could no longer suppress his anger. He couldn’t help but recall the day Narissa was released. Her face had been pale and frail, but at that time, he had been so
angry and felt nothing but contempt for his irrational sister.
Now, he realized that all of it had been a misunderstanding. He vaguely recalled the time when their mother passed away and how she had held Narissa tightly in her arms.
At that moment, Narissa had been pale, unconscious and their mother had looked at him
with tear.
her eyes, only saying one thing. “Evan, I can’t stay to watch you grow up. You’re the older brother. You must take good care of your sister, do you understand?”
The little Evan had reddened eyes, his heart aching unbearably. He had promised his mother, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll take care of Narissa. I will never let her suffer.
Their mother had closed her eyes and he had been in unbearable sorrow, helplessly watching as her breath faded away. In the end, he had carried his weak sister out of their
mother’s arms.
At that moment, he had made a firm decision to protect Narissa. But now, not only had he failed, but he had also believed Liora’s words, thinking that it was Narissa who had caused their
mother’s death. Even worse, he had helped others bully her.
Evan’s heart ached unbearably and rage surged within him. If it weren’t for Liora’s manipulation, nothing would have turned out this way.
Drake also saw everything. He had never imagined it would come to this. His expression shifted unpredictably and a layer of coldness settled on his handsome face.
He and Evan exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with ruthless determination. With gritted teeth. Drake spoke, each word dripping with hatred. “Liora, I will make you pay for this!”
