My mother slapped me across the face. “How can you be so shameless? Actually accepting interviews? Didn’t you promise us you’d leave after the abortion? Is this how you repay us?”
I sneered coldly. “Yeah, but I never imagined you’d get five men to humiliate me! Over and over again–do you even see me as human?”
I roared in fury: “This whole mess isn’t my fault!”
My father slapped me and sneered: “Everyone online is blaming you, and you still think it’s not your fault?”
I gritted my teeth, staring at them. “But you know better than anyone what really happened that night! I was the one kept in the dark! When this came to light, my brother cut ties with you and left. You were heartbroken, but you didn’t want to lose your daughter after losing your son, so yoù kept me around. Then you told me nothing actually happened. Because I was terrified and drugged, my memory of that day was fuzzy–I actually believed nothing had happened. But you never expected me to get pregnant, pregnant with my brother’s child!”
My parents stood frozen for a long moment, then suddenly raised their arms to hit me again.
But this time, I grabbed my mother’s hand. “What did I do wrong? He’s the one who drugged me, he’s the one who violated me, he’s the one who ran away after you caught him! You’re the angs who lied to me! So why should I bear the consequences 944
all this!”

I laughed bitterly. “You’re the ones who’ve lost your minds. From the moment you saw the prenatal test results, you knew Titus and I couldn’t possibly have a child with that blood type–you knew it was my brother’s child. When Titus saw that report, he confirmed that something had indeed happened between my brother and me, and that I was carrying his child. He felt humiliated and deceived–he wanted both me and the baby dead. And you? You were disgusted and wanted me dead too, even fantasizing that if I died, maybe your
son would come back?”
I let out a shaky breath. My trembling breathing seemed to wrench at my organs, making my whole body ache.
Back then, I didn’t dare believe it, didn’t dare speak up, didn’t dare admit it—I even loathed myself. But what had I done wrong?
My mother clenched her teeth, her eyes terrifying. “Selena, you’ve lost your mind, saying such lies. We’re sending you to a mental institution.”
I burst out laughing. Because in my previous life, she’d said the exact same thing. But this time, they couldn’t send me away.
After my mother spoke, reporters and undercover police swarmed forward.
My mother looked surprised and shouted: “You actually believe what a crazy person says!”
Nooked at her coldly. “My brother has already turned himself in. You didn’t expect that, did you?”
My mother stood frozen, then finally laughed. “That’s because you,

you slut, seduced my son!”
My mother was dragged away by police, screaming.
Actually, my brother hadn’t turned himself in. I was baiting them into revealing the truth. Now everyone completely understood what had really happened.
They all condemned my parents for enabling such a monster while abusing the victim.
My parents were taken to the police station, but to formally charge them would require a trial.
No one expected my brother to show up on the day of the trial.
My parents looked at him with joy, thinking he’d come to see them.
However, my brother stabbed them: “You let this get exposed, got my information leaked–now I have nowhere to go!”
My parents stared at him in shock and died on the spot.
My brother was sentenced to death.
Kelly and I posted online, thanking everyone for their help and calling on all women who had suffered assault to bravely seek justice for themselves.
That male reporter was suspended pending investigation.
Titus was fired from the hospital. Women around him kept their distance, and he never remarried.
