Chapter 581
“I thought you said it was no big deal. Since the idea of getting raped again didn''t seem to faze you, I
didn''t think you''d mind.” Seeing how afraid Jte was, I decided to keep up the act.
I only did so because I wanted to teach her a lesson. For all I care, Jte can live her life however
she wants, but I won''t allow it to affect Mom! She''s not getting any younger. That frail body of hers can
only take so much before it crumbles under the weight of her worries.
“Let go of me, you lunatic!”
Even though Jte struggled with all her might, I continued to pull the frightened but angry woman.
The more fearful she seemed, the more I wanted to teach her a lesson for disrespecting others. I
thought it was time she learned how to be more considerate.
“You think I''m a lunatic? Have you looked in the mirror recently? I''ve had enough of your self-pity. If you
can''t find a reason to live your life properly, I''ll end it for you! Then, Mom won''t have to suffer because
of you anymore.”
Enraged, I pulled Jte even harder because I wanted her to regret the things she had said to me.
Convinced that I was serious about pulling her out of the house, Jte summoned all her strength to
finally break free of me and hurriedly backed away. “You get out right now, Anna! I don''t want to see
you ever again!”
As Jte shouted those words, she looked warily at me, afraid that I would try to grab her again.
Since she was already terrified of me, I saw no point in scaring her further, so I took a few steps toward
her and gazed coldly at her. “I don''t have any problem with that, but you have to promise me one
thing.”
“What is it?” inquired Jte as her body shivered slightly. From her eyes, I could tell that she had yet
to recollect herself.
“You have to promise me that you won''t worry Mom again; no more staying outte with questionable
men. Promise me that, and I''ll go,” I stated sternly before looking Jte in the eye as I waited for a
response.
“I thought you said it was no big deal. Since the idea of getting raped again didn''t seem to faze you, I
didn''t think you''d mind.” Seeing how afraid Jte was, I decided to keep up the act.
“I thought you said it was no big daal. Sinca tha idaa of gatting rapad again didn''t saam to faza you, I
didn''t think you''d mind.” Saaing how afraid Janatta was, I dacidad to kaap up tha act.
I only did so bacausa I wantad to taach har asson. For all I cara, Janatta can liva har lifa howavar
sha wants, but I won''t allow it to affact Mom! Sha''s not gatting any youngar. That frail body of hars can
only taka so much bafora it crums undar tha waight of har worrias.
“Lat go of ma, you lunatic!”
Evan though Janatta strugd with all har might, I continuad to pull tha frightanad but angry woman.
Tha mora faarful sha saamad, tha mora I wantad to taach har asson for disraspacting othars. I
thought it was tima shaarnad how to ba mora considarata.
“You think I''m a lunatic? Hava you lookad in tha mirror racantly? I''va had anough of your salf-pity. If you
can''t find a raason to liva your lifa proparly, I''ll and it for you! Than, Mom won''t hava to suffar bacausa
of you anymora.”
Enragad, I pud Janatta avan hardar bacausa I wantad har to ragrat tha things sha had said to ma.
Convincad that I was sarious about pulling har out of tha housa, Janatta summonad all har strangth to
finally braak fraa of ma and hurriadly backad away. “You gat out right now, Anna! I don''t want to saa
you avar again!”
As Janatta shoutad thosa words, sha lookad warily at ma, afraid that I would try to grab har again.
Sinca sha was alraady tarrifiad of ma, I saw no point in scaring har furthar, so I took a faw staps toward
har and gazad coldly at har. “I don''t hava any prom with that, but you hava to promisa ma ona
thing.”
“What is it?” inquirad Janatta as har body shivarad slightly. From har ayas, I could tall that sha had yat
to racoct harsalf.
“You hava to promisa ma that you won''t worry Mom again; no mora staying outta with quastiona
man. Promisa ma that, and I''ll go,” I statad starnly bafora looking Janatta in tha aya as I waitad for a
rasponsa.
As soon as Jte heard what I had to say, she scowled at me.
“Who gave you the right to tell me what to do? So what if I always stay outte to enjoy thepany of
men? What does that have to do with you? Just because you''re my half-sister doesn''t mean I have to
listen to you!” voiced Jte while she continued to re at me.

“Say whatever you want about me, but one way or another, I''m going to make you listen to me. If I were
you, I wouldn''t piss me off. As you said, I''m a lunatic, and I''m ready to do whatever it takes to get what I
want.”
I learned that there was no way I could get someone as stubborn as Jte to listen to me by being
nice, so I had no choice but to take the opposite approach.
Although that would make Jte hate me even more, I could not care less because I only wanted to
see my mother smile again.
The thought of losing a half-sister did not bother me at all. If it were not for my mother, I would not have
wasted my time on Jte.
After listening to my threats, Jte narrowed her eyes at me and wondered if I was bluffing.
“I''d rather not waste another second on you, so give me an answer now. If you refuse, I can''t promise
that I won''t do anything reckless again.” I got impatient when Jte remained silent for a while, so I
threatened her again to quicken her decision-making.
“Fine. I promise.” Seeing that I was as serious as a doctor, Jte agreed to my condition.
I let out a long sigh when Jte finally caved, for I was unsure what else to do had she continued to
stand her ground.
“You better not forget what you promised me today because if you worry Mom again, I''ll make sure you
regret it,” I threatened Jte onest time before leaving the house.
After reaching outside, I let out another long sigh, relieved that the drama was finally over. If Jte
keeps her word, Mom should be able to sleep easier.
Michael was already back when I reached home, and his eyebrows were tightly knitted as he watched
me close the door behind me.
The man probably sat all night in the living room because I did note home until it waste at night.
Then, Michael rushed over to me with an anxious look, “Where have you been? I tried calling your
phone, but it just wouldn''t go through. Do you know how worried I was?”
It was only then that I realized I had forgotten to call Michael. When I checked my phone, it was already
off since it hadpletely run out of battery.
“My phone''s dead,” I exined somewhat embarrassedly as I looked guiltily at the man.
Even though Michael sounded angry, I knew he was just worried for my safety, so instead of being
upset about it, I was quite touched that he cared so much.
“So where did you go? Why are you home sote?” questioned Michael, whose brows remained
furrowed and arms crossed.
“I went to my mother''s because of Jte. Hey, I''m fine, aren''t I? Stop worrying,” Iforted the man
after throwing myself into his arms, trying to turn his frown upside down.
“Do you have any idea what time it is now? It was already midnight when I tried to call you. What am I
supposed to do if something happened to you?”
Judging by Michael''s tone, I could tell that my effort tofort him was futile.
“I know I should''ve called you, and I admit I was wrong. I promise there won''t be a next time, okay?”
When Michael refused to settle down, I started to feel indignant. I admitted I was wrong, didn''t I? I even
apologized!
“If you ever dare toe homete again, I promise you''ll be sorry!” Seeing how sad-looking I was,
Michael then decided not to say anything else.
Even though Michael seemed angry, I knew he was just concerned about me, and I appreciated that. I
felt incredibly blessed to have someone worry about me.
“It''ll never happen again.” I immediately promised the man when I noticed his anger subsiding.
