Betrayed by Blood: My Second Life as a Queen novel Chapter 234

Willow had suffered a complete breakdown and fought them for days. Yet, Tessa wasn't the one sent away. Instead, it was Willow who was ruthlessly kicked out of the house.

Later, she went looking for Julian.

But what was his response?

Even now, the memory of his expression was burned into her mind.

His eyes were devoid of warmth, looking at her with nothing but chilling indifference. With a scornful smirk, he spat out words drenched in contempt: "Willow, blame your own stupidity. You'll believe anything anyone tells you. If you've fallen this hard, you have no one to blame but yourself."

She had stood there, utterly paralyzed. She wanted to scream that the only reason she believed him was because he was her brother.

But the words never made it past her lips. She swallowed them back down, the silent realization tearing at her throat like crushed glass and jagged needles.

The agony was suffocating.

Amidst that suffocating wave of despair, Willow realized they had stopped seeing her as their sister a long time ago.

No amount of pleading would ever change that.

She had wandered away from her childhood home like a ghost. Just before she left the estate, she spotted a plush toy her parents had given her, tossed casually into the trash can by the gates.

Bending down, she carefully pulled it out, only to find it slashed and torn to shreds—just like her life.

She collapsed by the side of the road, weeping uncontrollably. That was the moment she truly understood that since her parents died, she had never had a family.

At the memory, the frost in Willow's eyes deepened. She stared at Julian, her lips curled into a cold, detached line.
