Tatiana struggled to hold back her tears, but her voice still broke. "I'm one of the lucky ones among the
victims, but I refuse to stand by and watch. When no one speaks up for me, I'll speak up for myself.
"When no one stands up, I'll stand up for them. I may not be a hero. But even if I might be in danger, I'll
never stand by and watch David, that beast, trample on the innocence and dignity of those ladies while
he roams free."
As her words trailed off, Alyssa's eyes were filled with tears. Her tears eventually fell onto the screen.
She deeply regretted her narrow-mindedness during this time. At the same time, she felt immense
pride in her sister, who fearlessly spoke out.
Sean turned away as well. His broad shoulders trembled as he suppressed his tears. He quietly rubbed
his eyes.
"Lyse, Taty has really grown up. She's no longer the little girl who needs your protection." Jasper
sighed, feeling sorry for Tatiana and also relieved.
Alyssa managed a smile through her tears. "Yeah. From now on, our family has gained another female
warrior."
Tatiana had chosen to livestream from a guest room at KS World Hotel managed by Alyssa.
After shutting down the computer, she sat alone in the darkness, lost in thought for a long time.
During the livestream, she had seen the malicious comments. In the past, she might have been timid
and afraid, sinking into the abyss of comments.
But now, she remained calm. She even felt a sense of unprecedented relaxation. Her greatest traumanovelbin
wasn't the abuse from David. It was the thought of the villain escaping consequences under the
Schmidt family's protection. That would haunt her for life.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Tatiana snapped out of her reverie and rose stiffly to answer it.
As the door opened, her vision swayed violently.
Before she could see who was at the door, she was pulled into a warm and vigorous embrace. The
weight of the embrace felt as if she were being squeezed into the person's body, merging into their
flesh.
"Taty, you silly woman. How could you not tell me about something so important? Do you know how
worried I've been?"
Hearing Sean's low, affectionate murmur in her ear, Tatiana instantly broke down. Tears welled up in
her eyes. "Sean, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kept it from you. It's my fault."
"It's not your fault. You did well, very well."
Sean's warm and trembling lips lightly brushed against her reddened ear. His husky voice was filled
with admiration, even adoration.
"You're so cool tonight that I feel ashamed of myself. My dearest Ms. Tatiana, I'm willing to devote
myself to you for a lifetime."
Tatiana's eyes widened in surprise at the romantic words, a sentiment she had never heard before. She
blushed shyly, biting her lip as her heart raced.
She longed to be loved, but she had never dared to hope to be admired by someone who loved her.
Seeing the couple was nearly done with their affectionate interaction, Alyssa and Jasper finally
approached.
