Chapter 1 of Betrayed by Blood, Avenged by Talent

After being exposed for plagiarizing the adopted daughter's song, I was dragged into an abandoned factory by a dozen obsessive fans and brutally tortured.

When I was rescued, a bloody hole was cut open in my neck, my vocal cords were cut off and my ten fingers and legs were twisted and deformed.

My parents, who were superstars, used all their connections and vowed to bring those who hurt me to justice.

My CEO's brother also frantically contacted the world's top medical team to treat me.

Outside the operating room, my mother's hesitant voice came in, “Although it's wrong for Janette to plagiarize Eugenia's work, isn't it too much to punish her like this?”

My father snorted coldly, “This is all her own doing! Ten years ago, we took her in and allowed her to steal so much of Eugenia’s affection. 

“But that wasn’t enough—she’s never satisfied and keeps trying to outshine Eugenia in every possible way. And now, she’s even stopped plagiarizing Eugenia’s song!”

My elder brother also echoed, “Yes! She is already the real daughter of our Hendrix Family, but she still uses despicable means to oppress Eugenia. 

“We must teach her a lesson this time so that Eugenia can successfully win the Golden Melody Award. As for Janette, we can replace her with a dog's vocal cords so that she can speak!”

The pain almost tore me apart and tears rolled down from the corners of my eyes.

He said he wanted to make amends to my family, but he was so cruel to me just for the fake daughter.

It was clearly Eugenia who plagiarized me, but they believed her one-sided words and chose to destroy me.

I did not want this home anymore.

——

At the door of the operating room, the doctor could not bear it and advised, “Mr. Hendrix, although Miss Hendrix's vocal cords have been cut off, there is still hope that they can be restored if they are replaced with artificial ones as soon as possible. 

“In addition, if her fingers and legs are delayed any further, they may really be disabled for life. Miss Hendrix is a singer who makes a living with her voice and hands. Should we arrange surgery for her as soon as possible…?"

My father interrupted him, “Delay it for now!”

My mother was a little hesitant, “Hubby, Janette has already received the punishment she deserves. She cannot go to the award ceremony the day after tomorrow. 

“After all, she is our biological daughter. Do we really want to watch her become disabled?”

My brother's voice was full of disdain. “It's better if she's disabled. Without her voice, she won't steal Eugenia's limelight anymore. If her legs are broken, she'll stay at home obediently. 

“If her fingers cannot be used, she'll stop plagiarizing Eugenia's songs. Our Hendrix Family can support her for the rest of her life, so what's there to be afraid of?

“Since she has the nerve to plagiarize Eugenia, she should be prepared to be punished. The Golden Melody Award should have belonged to Eugenia. 

“She should also be the future creative queen. Only if Janette is completely disabled will she stop trying to steal Eugenia's limelight.”

“No need for artificial vocal cords, just give her a dog's vocal cords so she can speak!”
