Hazel clamped her mouth shut, but she was still sobbing uncontrollably.

Leona held her daughter and soothed her softly. “Hazel, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you.”

She had the Treasure Hunter.

And it was supposed to be omnipotent.

After the nurse left the room, Hazel broke down again. “Mom, you have to help me. I want Scarlett and Zayden dead! Mom, ask the Treasure Seeker if there’s something that can make someone die from poison without leaving any trace.

“No, not poison. I want them to suffer. I want to torture them to death! Mom, help me…”

She hated Scarlett for not warning her, resulting in her enduring those horrifying days.

She hated Zayden for breaking her bracelet.

And she also hated him for beating her into this state.

Seeing her daughter’s ruined face, Leona began crying too. She leaned down and kissed Hazel’s forehead.

“Don’t worry. I will never forgive them.”

She intended to send her daughter onto the show to rehabilitate her image, to use Scarlett as a contrast, and to win public favor. She never expected it would end like this.

Now, Hazel was disfigured.

Leona was filled with regret.

But beneath her Twitter statement, the comments section had erupted.

After all, many people had witnessed Hazel’s unnatural good luck and Zayden’s relentless misfortune

The idea of ‘fortune stealing sounded fantastical.

Yet the visible pattern was hard to ignore.

Some believed, and some didn’t

After reading through the trending topics, Searlen finally turned off her phone.

She knew Leona would sue Zayden, and she would likely win

Because “stealing fortune” was intangible, it was impossible to present as legal evitems

But assault causing disfigurement and injury was a concrete fast

Zayden’s acting career was almost certainly over

By the time Scarlett arrived home, it was nearly cleven.

Her stepfather, Hendrix, and her younger brother, Rory, were both there.

Hendrix had prepared a full table of her favorite dishes.

“Scarlett, go wash up and let’s eat.”

Rory came downstairs, grinning widely.

“Scarlett, you’re back!”

It had only been half a month, but he had shot up noticeably.

He used to be just over 5’2“, which was short for a middle school boy.

Kids nowadays grow fast with better nutrition, most of his male classmates were already over 5’5“.

Rory had been born premature and had always been physically weaker and smaller than peers.

In middle school, the height difference became even more obvious.

He had always felt inferior because of it. That was part of why he was quiet and withdrawn.

In her previous life, when he had been framed for pushing a child into the river, his timid personality had played a small role.

Without the spiritual essence, he probably wouldn’t have grown much taller this lifetime either.

Now he was already over 5’5“.

By adulthood, he would easily reach 5’9“.

Thinking of the family’s tragic fate in her past life and comparing it to now, everything was slowly getting better.

Scarlett smiled softly. “Dad, Rory. I’m home.”

During the meal, Hendrix chatted about what happened at home.

“Ever since I helped Howell’s grandson recover, townfolks come to me whenever they feel unwell

More and more townfolks sought him out for treatment

Fortunately, none were complex illnesses, and they were mostly minor ailments he cuuht handle

Scarlett smiled.

“I’ll stay for two days. I’ll finish repairing the chemist room in the courtyard and restock more medicinal herbs. Then townfolks won’t have to go all the way to town for prescriptions”

The chemist room had been half–repaired before she got too busy to return for two consecutive

Now that the show had ended, she had more free time.

These two days would be enough to finish it.

Hendrix had been studying the traditional medicine books she gave him.
