Chapter 1 of My Father and Brother Left Me in Darkness for an Illegitimate Daughter

The day before the art exam, I was dragged into the woods by some thugs and tortured for a day and a night.

When I was found, my legs were broken and my face was covered in blood.

My father missed my urgent call because he was in a meeting and cried out of guilt.

My brother called my medical advisor and asked them to arrange surgery for me urgently.

Half asleep and half awake, my brother lowered his voice and said, "Dad, aren't we going too far in sending someone to school to teach Serena a lesson? Even if you want to stop Serena from taking the art exam in order to pave the way for Caitlin, there are other ways."

My father held me in his arms and sat in the back seat, speaking and brushing away the loose hair on my forehead.

"Serena often targets Caitlin at school. In order to make her restrain her temperament and stop getting in Caitlin's way, this is the only solution."

"Besides, I let Serena be the heir to the company, which is enough to make up for her ...."

I could not stop my teeth from chattering.

A chill ran down my spine.

The happy family in my eyes, the father and brother who doted on me, were all fake ....

——

"The patient is in critical condition and the medical staff are ready. Should we arrange surgery immediately?"

But my father said, "Wait until tomorrow."

The doctor was somewhat surprised and said, "Both of the patient's legs were broken. If she doesn't have surgery immediately, her bones won't be in the right place and her walking will be difficult."

After hearing this, my brother also advised my father. "Serena is still so young, you can't let her be lame."

"I want her to be lame! Now the situation has come to this point, I must ensure that Caitlin has no problems in taking the arts exam. Only by completely cutting off Serena's desire of dancing can Caitlin pursue her dream with peace of mind."

"Alright, let the doctor apply medicine to Serena first!"

I laid on the hospital bed, biting my lower lip tightly, but could not help sobbing.

My father, Reynand Davis, who treated me like the apple of his eye, made me feel terrified and shudder at this moment.

I finally understood why my father suddenly doted on me after my mother passed away.

It turned out that he was not making up for his guilt towards my mother by putting it on me.

He just wanted to destroy me and pave the way for his illegitimate daughter!

Also, my beloved brother, Sebastian Davis, cared most about Caitlin, not me, his biological sister.

Two men whom I trusted so much in the family hurt me unscrupulously for the same woman.

The more I thought about it, the sadder I felt. I could not help but choke and cough.

My father immediately pushed the door and rushed into the ward. He wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes with concern and asked in a gentle voice, "Did you have a nightmare? Don't be afraid, Serena, Daddy is here."

He patted my back while telling me stories and coaxing me like he did when I was a child.

Reynand always showed his love for me in front of everyone.

Sebastian turned around and ran out to call the doctor. "Please apply the most expensive anesthetic, I can't let my younger sister suffer any more pain!"

The concern on their faces did not seem fake.

And yet, they made me live in a lie, hurt and deceived.

My heart ached and I felt like I was going to faint any second.

The doctor pushed the door open, skillfully used scissors to cut open my clothes and prescribed medicine for me.

My father explained. "Serena, you're seriously injured. I'm afraid there might be a problem if you have surgery in a rush. Should we wait until the top medical experts arrive at the hospital tomorrow to set the bones in place?"

"Don't be afraid, I promise that the doctors will return you to normal soon!"

A tear slid down from the corner of my eyes.

I still could not hold back from asking, "Dad, can I really return to normal?"

My father was stunned for a moment, then looked away guiltily.

After a few seconds, he sighed and said, "Serena, when have I ever lied to you?"
