Chapter 2
I bit my lips tightly, until it bled, but I dared not make any sound.
When I was first locked up in the training center, I fought back against those who wanted to abuse me. As a result, they shocked me to the ground with electric shocks and beat me with sticks and whips for three days and three nights.
When I was hungry, I had only rotten food. When I was thirsty, I had to drink those people's urine.
Once I was lucky enough that the "coach" who came to me to vent was drunk and I took the opportunity to get his mobile phone.
I dialed my brother's phone number from memory, crying, admitting my mistake and begging him to take me home.
He just snorted coldly and said, "Renesmee, we agreed on a year, but it's only been a few days? Compared to the pain that Renata has suffered, this punishment is already a bargain for you."
"Just stay there and control your young lady temper!"
On the other end of the phone, the fake daughter's, Renata Muller, delicate crying could be heard.
"She was just confused for a moment. I was the one who stole her favor first. I deserve any punishment she gives me ...."
"Can you please forgive her? Anyway, my face has been ruined. I am no longer worthy of being a young lady of the Muller Family. Just let me go and let me fend for myself ...."
I was about to say something else but was interrupted by my parents' roar.
"Reagan! Didn't you see that Renata was sobbing? Hang up now! Don't answer Renesmee's calls anymore!"
"One year is one year. She will come back when she has learned her lesson!"
The call was hung up as I cried in despair.
Later on, I found out that my whole family was preparing to accompany Renata to South Korea for plastic surgery that day.
My parents and brother stated in pubic that no matter what Renata became, she was still their beloved family member.
But I had never been able to integrate into their family, three years ago and now.
I used more and more force with my hands and slapped my face until it was hot and swollen.
"Stop it!"
Reagan restrained my hands, anger swirling in his eyes.
"Renesmee, have you become so shameless now?"
"Are you taking off your clothes and hurting yourself in there to win their sympathy? It's useless!"
"Those people are professionals that Mom, Dad and I have specifically instructed. They won't be soft-hearted just because of your little tricks."
Hearing the words "Mom and Dad", I finally recognized who he was.
"Reagan, it's you ...."
He was stunned for a moment, his face darkened more and more and he gritted his teeth and said, "Stop acting! It's only been a year, you can't possibly not remember who I am, can you?"
"We just want you to learn your lesson, be more obedient and well-behaved. Do you really need to act miserable and disgust me?"
"I'm telling you! I recorded the video of you slapping yourself just now, so don't try to frame me later!"
Three years ago, after I was recognized back to the Muller Family.
Renata always found ways to hurt herself and then cried and told them not to blame me.
Later, she even deliberately broke my father's treasured antique vase and destroyed my brother's carefully built building blocks and put the blame on me.
Whenever I defended myself and pointed fingers at Renata, they would only say, "Don't try to frame others!"
My whole family told me the same thing at my birthday party a year ago.
"You clearly want to harm your sister, don't try to frame her!"
My heart was filled with a sharp pain and my throat was sore.
Seeing that I stopped talking, Reagan pulled me into the car.
As soon as I got home and opened the door, an innocent figure threw herself into my arms.
"Renesmee, you're back! I missed you so much!"
It was Renata, dressed in an innocent look. Her face had returned to normal and she looked like a princess pampered by the whole family.
Chapter 3
But when she hugged me tightly, her hands squeezed my injured parts and whispered in my ear.
"Bitch, you still dare to come back? You've been ridden by thousands of people. If I were you, I would have killed myself out of shame and anger."
The pain in my heart overwhelmed the pain in my body and I froze in place.
So it was her!
Why do you treat me like this?
Why?
I pushed her away and wanted to question her angrily.
"Oh my ...."
However, she seemed to be prepared and took advantage of the situation to fall backwards fiercely.
The back of her head hit the steps and blood gushed out immediately.
"Renesmee, it's been a year, do you still hate me?"
She was crying so hard that blood was flowing down her neck onto her snow-white dress, which was a shocking sight.
"Renesmee! I knew you were just pretending. You're still so vicious!"
My brother kicked me away and carried Renata towards the living room.
Renata leaned on his shoulder, raised her eyebrows and signaled me with her lips proudly. "I'll get you kicked out today."
The next second, she let out a sobbing sound, attracting our parents.
The three of them surrounded her with concern and began to apply medicine, until they heard Reagan say that it was me who caused Renata to be injured.
My parents finally noticed me standing at the door.
"Mom, Dad, don't blame Renesmee. Although she has good food and drink in the training center and learns the rules, she is not free after all. It is normal for her to feel resentful woo woo …."
Renata choked up and begged for mercy on my behalf and my father's face was extremely ugly.
He rushed towards me in anger and slapped me in the face.
"Renesmee, have you learned all the rules in a year!"
"Why are you still so vicious? You target your sister as soon as you come back!"
I was slapped so hard that my ears buzzed and I almost could not stand up.
Hearing him say 'rules', I almost instinctively fell to my knees.
"I’m sorry … I’m sorry!"
"I was wrong, don't punish me, I know I was wrong."
Compared to what I suffered in the training center, a slap in the face was nothing to me.
My self-esteem and pride, as well as my sense of shame, had long been tortured to the point of disappearing completely.
My father did not seem to expect me to be like this. He was stunned.
I knelt and apologized, but Reagan pulled me from the floor.
"That's enough! Renesmee, stop acting."
"It's fine as long as you know your mistake. Today, our family has prepared a homecoming dinner for you. Let's have dinner first!"
At the dining table, my mother looked at me with heartache and said, "Renesmee, why have you lost so much weight?"
I only dared to bury my head and eat the fries and salad in my plate. I turned a blind eye to the various delicacies in front of me.
It was not that I did not want to eat, I dared not.
In the past year, I had been barely surviving on eating rotten food.
Due to my disobedience, I often had no food to eat and could only scoop the leftovers out of a bucket to eat.
Once in a while, they threw chicken drumsticks under the table.
I pounced on it like a wolf and tried to bite it, but I was pinned under the table.
My limbs were tied to the table legs and then I suffered the most painful humiliation in my life.
From then on, I had learned.
Delicious food did not come for free, it came at a painful price.
So, I dared not.
Seeing my trembling expression, my mother sighed and handed me a roasted chicken.
"My dear, this table is full of your favorite dishes, go ahead and eat!"
The moment I saw the roasted chicken, my eyes widened and my whole body trembled.
I stood up reflexively, held my head and crawled under the table.
"I won't eat it ... I won't eat it, please don't tie me up ...."
Chapter 4
My parents and brother were shocked.
They crouched down and checked on me, who was trembling and muttering to myself. They froze.
"Renesmee! Are you doing it again?"
"Come out!"
Reagan was the first to react. He reached out to grab me and drag me out.
I shook off his hand and screamed desperately. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry, don't electrocute me!"
"I will be good, I will cooperate on my own ...."
With that, I voluntarily lay down under the table and began to take off my clothes.
When I was halfway through taking off my clothes, Reagan pulled me out.
He held my hand tightly with an unsightly look on his face.
I did not dare to struggle, I just forced out an empty and pleasing smile.
"I won't move. I will be good. Don't electrocute me or burn me with cigarette butts, okay? Please."
Once, due to my struggle and resistance, I was not only electrocuted to the point of incontinence, but was also surrounded by a dozen people who dripped hot candle oil and beat me with barbed leather whips. The pain made me faint many times.
I did not have the strength to struggle and resist, so I had to open my mouth and bite the abuser's arm hard. So they got my mouth open and press a hot cigarette butt into it as punishment.
At this moment, Reagan pinched my mouth and his eyes became extremely gloomy.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
I just thought he was trying to put the cigarette butt in and I screamed in fear.
When my parents saw that I was about to lose control, they quickly called a private doctor and gave me a tranquilizer.
My head was getting heavier and heavier, but I bit my lip and forced myself not to fall asleep.
If I fell asleep, something even more terrifying would happen.
"Alas, your daughter must have suffered extreme psychological or physical abuse, which is why she has this kind of stress reaction."
"Moreover, she has been malnourished and has not been eating normally and regularly for a long time. She needs to find a nutritionist to adjust her diet."
"And we need to send her to the hospital as soon as possible to check her psychological condition. Her condition is already very dangerous and she may have various sequelae ...."
Renata interrupted before the doctor could finish his words.
"How is that possible! We have arranged a place where she will be taken care of and trained well."
"No, Miss, she is ...."
The doctor wanted to say something else but my brother's cold voice interrupted.
"That's enough! Dr. Williams, I don't believe, you even helped her deceive people."
He looked at me with disdain, as if he understood something.
"Renesmee, you are really smart! You know how to bribe the doctor!"
The doctor froze for a moment and said, "Mr. Muller, you misunderstood."
"What did I misunderstand? The tranquilizer you gave her was also fake, didn't it? She's still very energetic! How much money did she give you for lying for her?"
My father looked at the doctor with some displeasure and said, "Dr. Williams, my daughter just went to a professional training center for a year. There, she has a healthy schedule and balanced nutrition in her meals. It is impossible for her to have the situation you described."
My mother also sighed on the side. "Renesmee, why are you still so ignorant?"
Renata cried out at the right time.
"Mom, Dad, why does Renesmee seem to have a worse temper than before? Woo woo, my head hurts so much."
My brother grabbed my hand and made a gesture to drag me out.
"Renesmee, since you still don't know how to repent, then go back to the training center!"
"No! I won't go back! I will be very good! Please! Don't take me back there ...."
I broke free from his hand and went crazy trying to find a place to hide.
Reagan reached out to pull me, but he only grabbed my skirt.
Then, the skirt was torn.
My back was covered with shocking scars, crisscrossing and looking hideous.
