Drake, her father, lashed out, “Your mother's condition worsened because of you! If she died, you'd be happy, wouldn't you?"

Maggie bit her lip, holding back her emotions, and asked her father, “Dad, what's wrong with Mom?"

“Her heart condition flared up again," Drake snapped angrily.

“Your uncle demanded that we stop working because of your situation. Your mother was overwhelmed and suffered another bout of heartache. It's all because of you!"

As Maggie gazed at her mother's silver hair, she couldn't find the words to defend herself and Lowered her head, consumed by guilt.

Helena reached out and held Maggie's hand.

“Maggie, I know you've endured so much. Yana is to blame, and we're angry too. But we depend on your uncle for financial support. We can't afford to cross him!"

Tears welled up in Maggie's eyes as she struggled to speak.

“If I hadn't run away that day, my Life would have been ruined!"

Drake suddenly rose from his seat, his anger flaring.

“You deserve it! If you had deleted that video sooner, none of this would have happened! Besides, aren't you fine now? Go and drop the case!"

Her father still Laid the blame on her.

This broke Maggie's heart.

“Dad, Yana has bullied me since I was a child. You always asked me to tolerate her and never stood up for me. I can't tolerate her anymore! I won't forgive her!"

“How dare you!"

Drake seethed with rage, his hand raised, ready to strike her.

“Even if you beat me to death, I will never forgive Yana!"

With tears welling up in her eyes, Maggie raised her head defiantly, her gaze unwavering.

“Stop it. Don't lay a hand on her. Go out first, Drake!" Helena urgently interjected.

Drake halted abruptly, turned around, and stormed out of the ward, seething with anger.

Helena clutched Maggie's hand, her eyes brimming with tears.

“Maggie, you've always been such a sensible child. You've never caused us any worry. I'm proud of the independent person you've become. Yes, Yana's at fault this time, and I understand your anger toward her. But, we depend on your uncle for financial support. If Yana ends up in jail, how will we face your uncle in the future? Maggie, please drop the case, alright?"
