Betrayed by Blood: My Second Life as a Queen novel Chapter 148

Because of that, Xavier mercilessly erased Willow from the Shaw family register, replacing her with Tessa and making her an official member of the family.

Even now, Willow could perfectly recall the day she was officially disowned.

She had desperately begged her siblings not to abandon her, but no one had even looked back. Only Tessa had stayed, staring at her with a mocking sneer, saying, "Willow, look at you. You're truly worse than a dog."

Tessa seemed to find it endlessly amusing, genuinely treating her like a stray. From then on, every time she passed by, she would toss a bone her way.

Willow could still vividly remember Tessa throwing a bone into the trash and sneering, "If you fish it out with your mouth, I'll go beg the boys to see you. How about it?"

The memories of her past life flooded back, piling up in her mind, drawing a soft laugh from her lips while her eyes remained chillingly devoid of anything but pure hatred.

It still wasn't enough.

Not even close.

The suffering Tessa was going through now was barely a fraction of what Willow had endured in her past life.

She had plenty of time to play this game with Tessa.

Seeing Willow lost in thought, Caspian grew unusually anxious. "Do you not like it?"

"Are you kidding!" Willow grasped the invitation, beaming brightly. "I love it! Thank you so much, Caspian!"

A gentle warmth melted into Caspian's eyes as a soft smile tugged at his lips. "I'm glad."

Willow smiled radiantly, carefully tucking the invitation away.

Vivienne looked on with visible satisfaction. "That's more like it! I suppose I can officially approve of Willow taking you as her mentor now!"

Caspian chuckled. "Then I'll have to prepare a proper welcoming gift."
