"Dude! You gotta believe me... My sister is in some deep shit this time! You have no clue... She was all bruised when Dad picked her up from the mental hospital! Those bastards... We only sent her there to chill out a bit, and they fucking abused her! Dad was so pissed he nearly torched the whole damn place!”
Sebastian's lips twitched, "Abused?"
Janetta, that vixen, she was more inclined to inflict harm on others. How did she end up being abused?
Something didn't add up.
"Yeah, man! Seeing my sister in that state filled me with remorse... I shouldn't have ever sent her there! She was all battered... Bruises all over her limbs, even her face was swollen! Those wretches, I won't let them go unpunished!”
“Who were the perpetrators?”
“The hospital reported it was an altercation among patients… But my sister claimed some nurses were also involved… We're still investigating, but I guarantee that we Damons won’t leave any stone unturned!”
“…”
"Bro, show me some leniency... You have my word. I'll ensure someone keeps tabs on my sister. She won't cause any trouble for your wife again."
“You sure you can pull that off?”
“I will!”
"Alright, I'll trust you one last time! Steph's cooking tonight, and Mrs. Bishop will be...coming over for dinner?”
"Though I'm craving your wife's cooking, my old man is like a ticking bomb these days, all heartbroken over my sister and blaming himself for my mom’s death... I dare not leave home. But I’m fine. Cyrus is the one who’s screwed, being used as a punching bag... Luckily, he's toughened up after all these hardships and learned to endure."
Sebastian wasn't interested in all this. He casually said, "Maybe next time then."
"Alright, bro! Don't worry. It’s all the responsibility of all of us to protect your wife! I'll make sure nothing happens to her!”
