Hearing that Jessica was the one who had disfigured me, my sister lost all reason.
“I’m going to peel the skin from your face myself and feed it to the dogs!” she roared. She had her men hold Jessica down, then pulled a small, sharp knife from her boot and plunged it into Jessica’s cheek. Not a slash, a puncture. Then she began to peel it upward, inch by inch.
Jessica let out a single, blood-curdling scream and fainted.
My sister paused, a new thought occurring to her. “This is too good for her.”
She made a call. “I remember you had a new… method… for the stubborn ones.”
Her subordinate on the other end replied, “Yes, Boss. But we haven’t tested it yet. We don’t know if it’s lethal
You know this kind of… product… is a scarce resource. If she dies, it’s a big loss…”
A cold smile spread across my sister’s face as she looked at the unconscious Jessica. “Use her. If she dies
t doesn’t matter.”
Jessica was hauled up like a dead weight. She came to in a panic. “Where are you taking me? Leo, save me!’
Just then, a bodyguard entered. “Boss, Roxy is dead.”
My sister bent over me, gripping my hand. “Did you hear that, brother? Everyone who hurts you will die.” She
hen had the bodyguard describe Roxy’s death in detail. “It must be comforting for my brother to hear.”
And so I listened. How they had tortured her, then thrown her into that same iron drum of filthy water. Hov he foul water had made her scream in agony, and how they had taken the opportunity to pry open her mou h. After the firecrackers had gone off, they brought her out for my sister’s final judgment.
‘Feed her to the dogs.”
The bodyguard left to carry out the order.
A wave of nausea rose in my chest, and I vomited what little I had in my stomach. My sister was instantly at my side, calling for the doctor. After drawing blood, the doctor returned, his face a mixture of shock and confusion.
“The Young Master… he seems to be gravely ill. It was caused by selling his blood!”
Jessica, hearing this, struggled free from the guards. She crawled to my bedside, her own face still dripping blood. “Leo, how could this be?! Boss, he’s sick! I promised I would stay with him for the rest of his life!”
She thought this was her salvation.
She didn’t understand the depth of my sister’s pathological obsession. She once told me that because I had our father’s handsome face, she could never allow me to be defiled by anyone. She would keep me like a prince, forever.

Chapter 2
The mere suggestion of me proposing to Jessica had already sent her into a rage. Now, hearing Jessica wanted to spend her life with me, she went completely insane.
“What did you say? A piece of low-life trash like you, after what you’ve done to him, you want to spend you
life with him?”
Jessica finally realized the danger. She gripped my hand, her body shaking. “Boss, Leo said he wanted to build a family with me! He said we would be family forever!”
At those words, fire erupted in my sister’s eyes. “Family? You and him?!” she screamed. “Men, cripple her What right does she have to be family with my brother!”
Jessica’s face went white. She tried to cry out to me for help, but her mouth was gagged.
My sister sneered. “Take her to try out your new toy.”
Even unconscious, Jessica was dragged away. Half an hour later, her heart-rending screams echoed throug the entire compound.
later learned what that “new method” was. Death by a thousand cuts. They gave her a painkiller to keep he ucid, so she could watch as they took her apart, piece by piece. They said she died of pure, unadulterate
