Chapter 8
She screamed in panic, shaking as she looked at Theo.
“Theo, let me explain!”
Theo’s expression was cold and suffocating.
“Explain? What is there left to explain? Mira, I never thought you’d betray me from the very start!
The weight of betrayal burned in his chest. He grabbed Mira’s hair roughly.
“How could you? How dare you!”
“You lied to me for nine years and blamed everything on Zara. You’re the truly cruel one!”
He slapped her twice, so hard she didn’t even try to fight back.
“I was wrong, Theo! I had my reasons!”
“I was scared she’d take you away!”
She clung to his pant leg, begging.
“You know she’s our parents‘ real daughter. I have nothing, only you! I didn’t have a choice!”
Theo looked down at her coldly.
“Afraid she’d take me away? You think I didn’t know how you treated her?”
“You call that being bullied and pushed aside?”
He threw the video evidence in front of her. Mira’s whole body shook.
“I–I really was wrong!”
“Theo, I’ll treat you right from now on. I’ll give you another baby, okay? Please believe me!”
Mira was panicking, but Theo only let out a cold laugh.
“What makes you think I’d ever want a poisonous woman like you again?”
Mira sobbed pitifully.
“Theo, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! Please forgive me, I’m begging you!”
“I just loved you too much. I couldn’t lose you!”
But Theo kicked her away without mercy.
“You don’t love me. You just love men! Since you can’t live without them, then stay with men
forever!”
At the same time, videos of Mira bullying and abusing me, from school to home, were exposed online by reporters in an instant.
Her reputation was completely ruined.
Facing massive public backlash, even the Bellamy Family cut all ties with her.
Without their support, Mira couldn’t survive and quickly fell into huge debt with loan sharks is
In the end, she had no choice but to enter the nightlife scene.
It was said she ended up being kept by an old man, but not long after, his wife found out and went after her, leaving Mira with nothing, not even her pride.

From then on, she could only work in nightclubs as a bar hostess for the rest of her life.
As for the twins, Theo sent them to an orphanage and publicly announced that he had severed all ties with them.
By the time this news reached me, I had just come back from my art exhibition.
Jasper, wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen carrying four dishes and a bowl of soup.
“Congratulations on the success of your art exhibition. Things will only get better from here.”
I smiled and leaned in behind him.
“Thank you. If it weren’t for your support, I wouldn’t have been able to follow my dream.”
Jasper stiffened a little, his ears turning bright red.
“Alright, sit down and eat first.”
I watched his expression closely, then pulled something from behind my back.
“I have a gift for you. Do you want
it?”
He said he wasn’t interested but still opened the package quickly.
When he saw what was inside, Jasper turned red from head to toe.
It was a ceramic ring I had made myself. A few days ago, when he asked me what it was for, I told him it was to confess to the person I liked.
“You…”
He stared at me, stunned.
“When did you find out?”
I smiled gently.
“Was it really that hard to tell you liked me?”
