I’m the real daughter of the Harrison family. At my wedding, I was about to exchange rings with my fiancé Zachary. That’s when Clara—the wife of Zachary’s late brother—burst through the doors, her clothes in complete disarray. “Zachary, help me! Melody’s uncle Shane assaulted me!” “He mocked me for being the adopted daughter and said that since he raised the real daughter of the Harrison family, he’s their benefactor—so I should sleep with him… I can’t live like this anymore!” The guests erupted in chaos. They cursed Shane as a perverted asshole and blamed me for bringing a monster into our family. Zachary immediately took off his suit jacket and draped it over Clara’s shoulders, his face full of concern. Then he turned to me, his eyes cold as ice. “Melody, bring Shane out here!” “He needs to face punishment and cut off his own dick, or this wedding is over!” Looking at the murderous expressions on my parents’ faces and Zachary’s parents, I almost laughed. Because Shane didn’t even have that thing.
My mom rushed onto the stage and slapped me so hard my head snapped to the side. “How dare you smile?!” She was shaking with rage, her fingernails nearly poking into my eyes. “We never should have brought you back from the countryside, you ungrateful wretch!” “Clara is sweet and considerate. And you? The person you brought into our lives is a rapist!” My cheek burned with pain. I licked the metallic taste of blood from the corner of my mouth, my eyes ice-cold. “Mom, have the police arrived? Has a medical examiner verified anything? You’re just going to believe everything Clara says?” “How dare you!” My dad kicked over a nearby flower arrangement. “Would Clara joke about her own innocence? The evidence is clear and you still talk back!” He roared: “Security! Drag that Shane out here! Then in front of everyone in this city, castrate him! Make him apologize to Clara!” Clara’s clothes were torn, her neck covered in intimate red marks. She collapsed into Zachary’s arms, lifting her tear-stained face, her voice weak: “Dad, Mom… don’t blame Melody… Maybe Shane just couldn’t control himself… I don’t blame him, I just blame my terrible fate for taking Melody’s place…” Zachary’s eyes turned bloodshot as he held Clara tighter, as if trying to absorb her into his embrace. “That asshole dared to touch you? I’ll make sure he never uses that thing again!” Zachary turned to me, his eyes filled with disgust. “Melody, you heard her. Even now, Clara is begging for mercy for your Shane!” “A vicious woman like you doesn’t deserve to enter the Barrett family!” “You have three minutes. Bring that asshole here. If you let him escape, I’ll send you to prison to atone for what happened to Clara!” The guests below were all cursing me. “So what if she’s the real daughter? Her heart is pure evil.” “Exactly. Enabling a relative to rape a woman—this is a disgrace to high society.” “Mr. Barrett is doing the right thing. Monsters like that should be beaten to death!” I calmly pulled out my phone and stared coldly at Clara. “Clara, are you certain Shane assaulted you?” “It was him! I’ll never let him go, even if it kills me.” Clara glared at me through her tears. “Fine!” I turned to Zachary. “Zachary, you just said you’d castrate Shane, right?” Zachary spoke through gritted teeth: “Yes! I’ll make sure he loses all sexual function!” “Good.” I dialed the number and put it on speaker. “I’ll give you what you want.” The call connected. The massive roar of a motorcycle engine exploded through the speaker system. I spoke into the phone, my voice calm. “Shane, come to the wedding venue. Someone says they’re going to castrate you.”
A light, mocking laugh came from the other end. “Alright. Tell them to sharpen the knife.” Shane hung up. Zachary froze, then exploded in rage, smashing a glass. “She hung up? Melody, you put it on speaker to warn her, didn’t you?” “Zachary… I’m scared…” Clara trembled in Zachary’s arms. “That rapist took naked photos of me… If they get out…” “Clara, don’t be afraid!” Zachary’s eyes turned blood-red as he roared at the security guards: “Lock down the entire city! Find that asshole! Right here—I’m going to personally cut off that filthy thing!” Watching the man I was supposed to marry go insane while holding another woman, my heart grew colder and colder. Ever since Zachary’s older brother died in a car accident three months ago. Zachary had transformed from the devoted boyfriend who kept vigil for me on that snowy night into Clara’s on-call servant. “You ungrateful brat! What are you standing there for? Apologize to your sister now!” My dad, furious beyond reason, kicked me hard in the back. I lost my balance and fell to my knees on the floor. My knees slammed against the hard surface, instantly swelling and turning red. “As long as Clara forgives you, I’ll only send that rapist to prison and won’t kick you out of the Harrison family!” “I did nothing wrong. Why should I apologize?” I endured the excruciating pain and lifted my head, staring hard at these so-called “family members.” Six months ago when they brought me home, they called me the apple of their eye. But the moment Clara shed a tear, I became an ungrateful dog. “Still talking back!” My dad lost it completely and raised his hand to hit me again. “You’re worthless to the core! Since you won’t admit your fault, even if the Barrett family wants you dead today, the Harrison family won’t intervene!” “Dad, please don’t hit her…” Clara sobbed breathlessly, but triumph gleamed in her eyes. “It’s all my fault for having this face… Melody grew up in the countryside, so it’s not surprising she brought back bad people…” “Clara, you’re kind, but those who do evil must die.” Zachary looked up at the dozen live-streaming cameras at the wedding, his face twisted with rage as he announced: “Barrett Group is offering one million dollars for one of Shane’s hands!” “Harrison Corporation adds another million!” My dad immediately followed. The entire venue erupted. Camera flashes went crazy. I endured the severe pain and forced myself to stand up, snatching the microphone from the host’s hand. “Since you all think Shane did this, Zachary, Dad, Mom—dare you bet your entire fortunes with me?” My voice was hoarse but carried to every corner: “If Shane really assaulted Clara, I’ll not only personally arrest Shane but also give up my inheritance rights to the Harrison family and turn myself in to the police immediately!” My parents’ expressions changed slightly, showing hesitation. But I didn’t back down an inch, pressing forward step by step: “But if Shane is innocent, I want all of Barrett Group’s shares and all of the Harrison family assets.” “And you all must apologize to Shane in a live broadcast!” “As for Zachary—if you lose, your dick gets cut off!” “You’re insane!” My dad roared. “Is it worth betting on a rapist?” “Don’t you dare?” I shoved the microphone toward the live-streaming cameras, a mocking smile on my lips. “If the evidence is so clear, what are you afraid of? Or is this whole thing a fraud orchestrated by Clara?” “I’ll take that bet!” Clara suddenly threw off her outer garment, exposing her body covered in kiss marks and bruises, and screamed. “Dad, Mom, Zachary, agree to it! Being assaulted by Shane is a fact. My innocence can’t be destroyed like this!” “I want to watch Melody lose everything and see that rapist go to hell!” “Fine. Bring paper and pen. Let the whole internet witness this.” Zachary slammed his hand on the table. “Melody, today I’ll make you lose so badly you’ll have to accept it! When that asshole gets here, I’ll personally castrate him, then make you kneel at Clara’s feet like a dog!” A few minutes later. A “life-or-death betting agreement” was slapped down on the red carpet as cameras frantically took photos. They had just signed their names when the banquet hall doors were kicked open with a loud bang.
Shane walked in. She took off her helmet, revealing purple-pink wolf-cut hair that exploded wildly under the lights, black diamond earrings reflecting cold light. The cursing in the venue stopped as if someone had grabbed everyone by the throat. Shane ignored the surrounding gazes and walked straight to me, casually scanning the crowd. “Which dog was just barking about chopping me up for dog food?” When Clara saw Shane, her pupils constricted sharply and her face turned deathly pale. Her trembling finger pointed at Shane: “Zachary, that’s the one who assaulted me!” “He tore my clothes apart and pinned me down… said that since I’m the adopted daughter, I deserved to be raped…” The guests below instantly exploded! “He’s so arrogant! A rapist actually dares to show up like this!” “This kind of scum should be shot on the spot!” Shane glanced at Zachary, then looked down at me, a flash of heartache in her eyes: “Melody, this is your blind fiancé?” Zachary erupted in rage, pointing at Shane’s nose and roaring: “Shane, you asshole!” “Security, beat him! Now!” A dozen bodyguards with clubs approached menacingly. “Wait.” I stepped forward, standing in front of Shane, my eyes ice-cold. “Zachary, even judges give criminals a chance to speak.” “You’re so eager to convict Shane—are you trying to hide something?” “You…” Zachary was speechless with anger. Just then, Clara suddenly pushed him away and rushed toward the second-floor railing like a madwoman. “Since you’re all deceived by his appearance… I might as well die!” “Clara!” Without giving anyone time to react. Clara climbed over the railing and jumped. The entire venue screamed. Clara crashed heavily to the ground, her left leg twisted at a grotesque angle, blood instantly staining the floor. The venue fell into dead silence. The next second, screaming exploded! “The victim was driven to suicide!” “Beat this asshole to death!” Zachary rushed down the stairs like a madman and scooped up the blood-covered Clara. “Clara! Clara, don’t scare me!” Everyone followed to the first floor. Clara’s face was deathly pale, her lips purple, but she still stared hard at Shane. “Now… do you believe me? Shane did assault me!” Clara’s voice was weak, trembling with every word. “Shane, I want you to pay with your life!!” Zachary’s eyes turned blood-red as he roared at Shane. My mom rushed over and slapped me across the face again. “You brat! Why wasn’t it you who got assaulted!” My dad followed, raising his foot to kick my stomach. “Clara risked her life and you still dare to argue! Today I’ll teach you a proper lesson!” Shane wrapped an arm around my waist and quickly dodged backward. My dad lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud. So my dad lay on the ground, shaking with rage. Guests frantically took photos. The live stream was filled with curses. “The real daughter is truly vicious!” “The adopted daughter used her life to prove she wasn’t lying, and the real daughter still argues!” Clara was shaking all over in pain, but she still secretly flashed me a triumphant smile. In that instant, I suddenly understood. She deliberately used one leg to completely establish her identity as the “victim.”
