Three years later, Dereck finally relented and agreed to a divorce after seeing Unity, who had completely lost her mind, and Alexei, who was scarred and resentful.

He’d gotten rid of the servants who’d been taking care of Unity and Alexei.

That day, all of them got into the car together. Alexei had clung to Unity. Teri had come along just to witness Unity’s moment of defeat.

After waiting for years, Teri was finally able to be with the man she’d been in love with for so long. She was absolutely thrilled.

She couldn’t help but feel smug, mocking Unity for all her scheming to marry into the Turner family, only to end up unable to protect herself.

Unity couldn’t even give her parents a good ending.

Maybe even the heavens couldn’t bear letting a villain like Teri have a happy ending.

As they got onto the highway, Unity, her mind pushed past its breaking point, suddenly let out a shrill scream.

She climbed over the back seat and lunged for the steering wheel.

The car crashed into the guardrail and plunged down.

In that accident, Unity finally found her release.

She fought desperately to shield Alexei right up to her last breath, and thanks to her, Alexei only suffered minor injuries.

Dereck, on the other hand, ended up with severe internal damage and was hospitalized for almost a year.

As for Teri, she lost the baby she’d been carrying for three months. With it, she lost any hope of ever being a mother. The doctors had to remove her uterus.

The tangled grudge between the three of them finally came to a tragic and bloody end.

After getting out of the hospital, Dereck still ended up marrying Teri.

As Dereck’s only son, Alexei should’ve finally gotten better treatment. But every time Teri saw him, all she could think about was the baby she’d lost.

She got even more obsessed and cruel, coming up with every twisted way she could think of

She’d lock him up in a pitch–black room, leave him hungry, jab him with needles, even shove him under water.

To be honest, sometimes when Alexei looked at him, Dereck felt a chill running down his spine.

That fierce, wolf–cub glare was even scarier than anything he’d ever seen from an adult.

His tacit approval only fueled Teri’s cruelty. The worst time, she even went so far as to plan to dump Alexei deep in the mountains and let the wolves have him.

That was the first time Alexei ever came to Edgar’s notice.
