That day, Jiho stood before her stepmother, forcing her to remember every cruel thing she had done to her—every word of torment, every act of abuse. The weight of each memory bore down on her stepmother, who trembled, unable to defend herself. Jiho's cold gaze never wavered as she reminded her of the suffering she had caused.
The next day, the public was told a different story. The editor reported that Jiho, the devoted daughter, had sent her adoptive parents abroad for treatment. The world believed the lie, but those who lived in the mansion knew the truth. Jiho had sent her stepmother to a mental asylum and her father to a nursing clinic with the worst reviews possible. But she didn't care about what the world thought. She didn't care about anyone's opinion, least of all her father or stepmother's.
