“I’m sorry. I only thought about getting
venge for you, I didn’t realize it would hurt
ou again…
choked out a nod.
hadn’t told him about what happened to me
n the past life.
He only knew that I had been killed by Lily,
which is why he hated her.
He didn’t know I suffered the same abuse.
He was heartbroken, holding my face, wiping
away my tears.
Then he told me how he got revenge.
After chasing those men out of the room, he
immediately announced that he was
terminating his contract with Director Zhang,
even if it meant destroying the script.
He also declared that Gu Corporation would
never work with them.
Given his status as the heir, the men
apologized profusely.
They said they were manipulated by Lily.
く
Ethan said one thing.
“How you planned to treat my sister tonight,
you will now do the same to her.
Understand?”
Zhang and the others nodded, dragging a
screaming Lily to the next room.
The banquet was attended by high–society
figures; she had shot herself in the foot.
No matter how loud the screams were on the
third floor, the people downstairs couldn’t
hear anything.
When the Smiths found out she’d offended
the Gu family and powerful men, they
furiously scolded her.
They personally guarded the door while she
was abused.
Lily was tortured all night and taken away by
an ambulance before dawn.
The men covered up the news, the hotel staff
didn’t leak anything.

Lily was bedridden for a month.
On the day she recovered, it was also the day
of the signing ceremony.
Seeing me with Ethan, Lily regained her
haughty air.
“Willow, you’re nothing but a pathetic loser clinging to your brother.”
“After I become a movie queen, I’ll get even with you. Just wait and cry!”
I looked at her as if she were an idiot, waiting for her to realize she would be replaced.
The signing ceremony began.
Ethan, holding the contract, smirked at Director Zhang. “My screenwriter is here too.”
Zhang stood up, excited. “Really? The
talented writer is finally showing their face?
Please introduce me!”
He had produced two blockbuster films using scripts from Ethan’s company.
He had a feeling this script would break office records.
When he saw me standing with Ethan, he
froze.
Lily also froze, sneering, “Did you bribe the screenwriter to replace that nobody?”
I stood up calmly, grabbed the microphone, and explained my creative ideas for the
script.
The room fell silent. Director Zhang was thrilled, praising me as a genius.
“She can’t play the lead in my script.” I
pointed to Lily, calmly.
Zhang immediately agreed. “No problem,
whatever you say!”
Lily’s face paled in disbelief, “Director Zhang, you promised me…”
>
“I promised your father! Get out!”
Zhang pushed her away, wanting to praise me
further, but Ethan stopped him.
The Smiths, hearing that Lily had been
blocked from becoming a star, were furious. They grabbed Lily’s ears and cursed at her. “We should have chosen differently! You have a pretty face but refuse to be
accommodating. Now you’ve offended the
wrong people!”
Lily cried out in pain. Ethan frowned.
“Enough. Everyone else, out!”
Lily and the Smiths were immediately
escorted out.
Zhang tried to speak, but Ethan stopped him. “My sister doesn’t like you, so we’re not
signing with you.”
Zhang’s face turned ashen. He wanted to ask
why, but I ignored him.
“Then why did you give me two scripts?”
He wasn’t giving up, and sirens were heard
outside.
Ethan answered for me.
<
“Because my sister said you need a long line
to catch a big fish.”
Director Zhang was arrested for sexual
assault and assault.
His penalty was astronomical.
Lily, as a victim, was questioned.
Ethan gave the police all the videos of Lily
m
drugging me and nearly letting me get
assaulted.
He also provided the videos of Lily being
abused.
At first, Lily denied it, saying the videos were
Al–generated.
The Smiths arrived, threatening her to keep
quiet.
Lily finally broke down.
“I’ll confess! I’ll confess everything!”
“I drugged her. Everything they did to me is
true!”
“My parents are the masterminds! They
forced me…
Lily confessed, detailing the abuse she
suffered from the Smiths, and how several
powerful men had assaulted her.
Although the story was suppressed, Ethan
leaked a recording.
Hearing that their beloved star was a puppet, a plaything of the powerful, fans were
outraged, demanding justice.
Ethan released a second recording.
It was Lily’s confession about drugging me and trying to get me assaulted.
The fans turned against her, calling her manipulative and deserving of what she got. Lily’s acting career was over, and the Smiths
became pariahs.
Director Zhang’s past crimes of abusing
actresses were exposed, and he was banned
from the industry.
He went bankrupt and committed suicide.
Other powerful men who abused actresses
were also exposed.
They initially denied it, but evidence
mysteriously appeared at the police station.
They were all brought to justice.
Lily, as a victim, was detained for a month for drugging me.
The moment she was released, she found the
Smiths and killed them.
She chopped them into pieces.
When she was arrested, she was still hacking
away with a knife, yelling:
“It’s all your fault! Why did you force me?
Why did you use me? Die!”
She resisted arrest and was shot dead.
My revenge was complete.
Lily was cremated without a funeral.
Ethan asked if I wanted to scatter her ashes. I
shook my head.
“This life, and all the lives to come, I never
L
want to see her again.
Brother nodded, hesitantly asking, “What
about me?”
I smiled, hugging his waist, just like when I
first went home with him.
“You’re my forever good brother.”
He seemed relieved, sighing, “It was because
of that ‘brother‘ that I decided to protect you
forever. No, for all my lives.
Warmth filled my heart, “Brother, you’re so
good.”
“I know.”
“Brother, will you always be by my side,
protecting me?”
“Always.”
