"Reg!" Isabel stepped forward, positioning herself between Colin and Reggie. Her eyes were cold with fury as she glared at Colin.

Colin looked at the siblings, who now stood against him. He wished he had never fathered them.

Reggie placed a hand on Isabel's shoulder, his eyes soft as he spoke to her. "Isa, let me handle this."

"Okay," Isabel nodded and stepped back behind him.

We're just tools to you, useful when you need us, discarded when you don't. A few days ago, during the stay in the hospital, you severed your ties with us. So now I'm taking Isa away. Don't ever think you can use us again."

Colin, enraged, raised his hand to strike Reggie again.

"Yes, you may have fathered me, but I'm my own person. You have no right to hit me."

"You ungrateful brat! That's exactly what you are!" Colin spat, gritting his teeth.

Reggie nodded and agreed, "Let's go."

Together, they began walking toward the door.

"Stop! Both of you, stop right there!" Colin bellowed after them.

Isabel ignored the crazed shouts behind her, pulling Reggie along with her.
