Chapter 166

Tyler was caught off guard, seemingly snapping back to reality. The ambiguous emotion in his eyes

quickly vanished, replaced by a strong sense of disgust.

“I’m not your brother!” he exclaimed, shoving Liana away forcefully. Taking a step back, he glared at

her with anger and hatred in his

eyes.

“Your brother is that scumbag, and I have nothing to do with you!” he spat out, emphasizing his

disassociation.

Facing Tyler’s mounting rage, Liana displayed no visible reaction, almost appearing accustomed to it.

Witnessing her calmness only intensified Tyler’s disgust. He impulsively lunged forward, gripping her

swollen face, and spoke in an angry tone, “Liana, if you want to stick with Bernard, then we’ll go back to

our childhood games…”

At the mention of their childhood games, Liana’s body trembled slightly, but she defiantly maintained a

resolute expression.

Tyler slapped her across the face, “If you look at me like that again, I won’t hesitate to find someone to

punish you!”

Men are stronger than women, so Liana’s mouth quickly started bleeding.

She turned away, covering her swollen cheek, never saying a word.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t fight back, but she knew that if she did, the punishment would be even more

painful than what she experienced during her coming–of–age ceremony.

She lowered her head slightly, looking down at her toes, and said nonchalantly, “Go ahead, find

someone to hurt me. It doesn’t matter; I’ve already had my womb removed…”

Tyler was startled. A complex emotion flashed across his heart, but he quickly suppressed it.

“Serves you right! That’s all because you get pregnant with that bastard’s kid and not have an

abortion!”

Liana forced a smile, “You know my uterine walls are thin, an abortion would’ve been fatal…”

Tyler sneered, “Wouldn’t death be a good thing?!”

Hearing such words again, Liana had almost no reaction, probably because she had heard them so

many times that she became numb. to them.

She kept recalling the scene in her mind where Tyler performed the abortion on her himself. The rough

stitches saved her life, but they -caused–her–infection, leading to the removal of her womb to survive.

Liana remained silent, which annoyed Tyler even more, “Why so quiet? You used to love talking back,

right?“,

Liana’s eyes seemed empty, devoid of any emotion, as if she had released all the entanglements of her

past. However, to Tyler, this was an unforgivable transgression.

“Since you have nothing to say, just wait and see. I’ll ensure you understand the consequences of

betraying the Howell family!” Tyler declared with venom in his voice. With those words, he turned on his

heel, opened the door, and departed.

As Liana watched his retreating figure, a flicker of indifference passed through her beautiful eyes. She

wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and took a seat in the office chair. Despite being battered

and bloody, she maintained an air of pride, as if nothing had happened.

When Eleanor entered the room, she discovered Liana in this state–emotionless, cold, and resilient.

Just now, she saw Tyler leaving with rage all over his face, which was completely different from his

cheerful personality before. It seemed they had some kind of hatred.

Eleanor was tactful and didn’t ask about their relationship. Pretending not to know anything, she took

out some anti–inflammatory and pain relief medicine for Liana.

“Dr. Terrill, put this on quickly, you’re so pretty. Don’t let it leave a scar.”

Seeing Liana’s injured face, Eleanor couldn’t help but feel guilty, thinking that Liana was being beaten

in her place.

“Thank you.”

Liana took the anti–inflammatory patch, put it on her face, and glanced at Eleanor, who was trying to

act indifferent.

“You know Tyler, don’t you?”

She seemed to be close to Jason, and Tyler was Jason’s buddy. So, it was certain that Eleanor knew

Tyler.

Eleanor nodded but still respected Liana’s privacy and didn’t ask any further.

Liana didn’t mind and spoke candidly, “Well, he’s kinda like my brother, I guess. No blood relation, I just

lived in his house for over a decade, calling him brother and all. But…we have quite a few conflicts

between us.”
