Chapter 170 On the way to the hospital, Megan's hands were clenched tight. She didn’t ask Sullivan for details.

The hospital corridors felt endless, and as Megan paced through, the faint sound of a woman's weeping, tinged with distortion and agony, familiar yet foreign, reached her ears.

Megan quickened her pace.

When she finally pushed open the door, Sullivan stood right behind her, his voice a low rumble, “Sthugs from the Corona gang made her deal in one ear Found her in an abandoned warehouse” Megan's eyes flooded with tears, her hand shaking on the doorknob. It took her a moment to gather the courage to step inside.

Timothy and his fiancée had arrived before her, sitting quietly in the room.

Lucia was a shadow of her former self, sitting on the hospital bed, not acknowledging Timothy or his fiancée nor hearing their attempts at comforting words.

She was like a ghost Only when Megan entered did a spark of life flicker in Lucia’s eyes.

Megan gently hugged her, her voice quivering with apologies for arriving late.

Lucia’s cry was haunting, unlike any sound of grief Megan had ever heard...

Timothy murmured in confusion, “But doesn’t she still have her left ear? Why can’t she hear?” Megan wrapped her arms tighter around Lucia She closed her eyes, answering Timothy. “Lucia lost her hearing in her left ear when she was just 15. She's been living with hearing from only her night ear since then! Now, you and your fiancée have taken that from her, too. | told you, she’s just an orphan, powerless... In front of families like ours, she’s nothing! Why did you betray her feelings and hurt her physically?” Timothy shivered all over He looked at Lucia, at her frail body, remembering how vibrant she used to be. He recalled whispering sweet nothings and crude jokes into her left ear while tormenting her and her always looking puzzled.

Because she couldn't hear him Their last ttogether, he whispered, “If it were you, I'd be overjoyed to marry you! A night of endless passion” She looked at him, as clueless as ever.

He realized she never heard any of it.

And now, she never would.

Timothy's eyes burned with a mix of emotions while his fiancée, Corona, coolly wrote a check for 20 million, saying to Lucia, “20 million for one ear should be enough, right?” Timothy grabbed her wrist.

Dressed in a lavish evening gown from shaute couture label, Corona was dragged by Timothy into the hospital restroom, a place even the cleaning staff avoided due to its filth There, Timothy took her without even bothering to close the door.

He treated her with contempt, spitting harsh words, “Is this what you wanted? To provokebecause | hadn't touched you? Now, you got your wish. We're tied together for life, and I'll make sure we play the part of a loving couple!” He even insulted her, “Like a dead fish! You'd fetch 200 at best out there!” Corona slapped him, “Timothy, you're insane! All this for that cheap bitch!” eap bitch here?” Timothy sneered, “She's the cheap one! You're even worse! Chasing after a man she discarded. Who's the real cheap Tears filled Corona’s eyes.

Timothy gently caressed her face, “Regretting it now? Too late! You've pushedtoo far!” With that, he zipped up and walked away without looking back.

That night, Timothy called several starlets to Borough City’s most exclusive club.

Corona, broken, returned to the Neumann household.

Harper Neumann greeted her with a slap that left her ears ringing, berating her, “Are you stupid? Do you know how much we've invested in this alliance? You've pushed Timothy to this point over simplevant girl. How are you two supposed to live after this?” 1/2 09:35 Chapter 170 He threw a stack of scandalous photos at her “Look, this is his response! Did you really think our arranged mamages could breed true love, that any man would stay faithful to you? You're a fool!” Corona, looking at the photos, trembled, “He did this for her” Harper scoffed, “You didn’t challenge his love, you challenged his ego. That's something Timothy can’t stand.

You've awakened a beast. Once Timothy takes over the Lawson family, the Neumanns will be his first target.” Corona was left stunned.
