Betrayed by Blood: My Second Life as a Queen novel Chapter 219

Willow paused for a second before dropping a chilling gaze on him. "Did I not make myself clear, Silas? I'm suing every single one of you. You are permanently dead to me!"

In other words, he was no longer her brother.

A hollow void ripped open in Silas's chest. His voice shook uncontrollably. "Willow!"

Willow kept her attention focused solely on Lucian's hand. His knuckles were slightly red and swollen, though the skin wasn't broken. It wasn't anything serious, but because of his fair complexion, it looked incredibly jarring.

Pulling out her phone, she shot a quick text to Adelina, asking her to prep some trauma ointment.

Seeing Willow treat him like he didn't even exist sent Silas into an absolute spiral. "Are you completely heartless?! No matter what happens, I am your family!"

Willow arched a lazy brow, her tone dripping with vicious sarcasm. "Family? When you forced me to my knees for Tessa and starved me by cutting off my allowance, did you remember you were my brother then?"

Having his past cruelty shoved directly in his face made Silas freeze.

Memories flooded his mind, forcing him to witness every single time he had viciously punished Willow just to make Tessa happy.

No matter what happened, he had always forced Willow to submit.

Even when they were both bleeding, he had always rushed to comfort Tessa first.

Wasn't what she was doing right now exactly the same?

For the very first time in his life, he realized how excruciating it felt to be treated like garbage.

But Silas still didn't think he was entirely in the wrong. Tessa was an orphan who grew up without parents, whereas Willow had plenty of family. Tessa was infinitely more pathetic.

Protecting her more fiercely was just the right thing to do.

Silas ground his teeth, his eyes flushing a vicious shade of crimson.
