My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness

"The family entrusted you with the property to test your abilities, but instead of taking it seriously, you gave up completely. Do you even care about the family? Do you still respect me as the head of this household?"

Zack's stern rebuke was sharp as a blade and cut straight at Patricia.

“Grandfather, I didn't.....” Patricia felt so helpless. She tried to explain, but the words would not come.

The family had given her a pig farm with no value, yet they were using it as an excuse to scold her. How could this not feel like a personal attack?

What fairness was there in this? Did the Yeager family even consider her part of the family anymore?

"Then, where are the results? Show everyone what you've accomplished," Zack's voice rose.

Patricia's throat closed up. She could not utter a single word.noveldrama

How was she supposed to produce results from such a rundown place?

Alex cheered internally as he watched her in distress. This was exactly what he wanted.

While he basked in the family's favor, Dustin and Patricia were left to endure the harshest treatment.

“Patricia, the family gave you that pig farm because we believed in you. The harder the situation, the more it showcases your capabilities. But you just gave up and let it rot. Do you think you've lived up to the family's expectations?" Zack's tone grew increasingly harsh.

Patricia's body trembled.

"What an old geezer! How could you say all that without even flinching? Do you have any shame at all?" Dustin's face darkened as he saw Patricia suffer.

The Yeager family did not care about Patricia at all. First, they threw her into an abandoned pig farm. Then, they came demanding results.

It was laughable!

Their hypocrisy and shamelessness knew no bounds.

"You two are ungrateful. You bite the hand that feeds you! The family showed you kindness, and this is how you repay it? You're nothing but freeloading traitors." Alex sneered as he seized the moment to pile on.

"Exactly! How could you betray the Yeager family like this?"

"You're so young, yet all you care about is lazing around and living off the family. Dream on!"

...

Voices rose with scorn and contempt. Each person was harsher than the last.

Patricia's body trembled violently as tears welled in her eyes.

She had never felt so wronged and helpless in her entire life.

This was her own family...

They had knowingly sent her to a worthless farm, asked her for profit, and then accused her of being incapable...

The cold-bloodedness and hypocrisy were unbearable.

At that moment, she wished more than anything for Dustin to miraculously turn the

pig farm into a success. Nothing else mattered.

But deep down, she knew it was impossible.

'Why? My life is already so

miserable, why do I have to endure this?' Despair consumed Patricia's thoughts, and she wished she could escape everything forever.

"Enough! All of you, shut up!" A sudden roar echoed through the room. The words slammed into Patricia's mind like thunder.

She turned around in shock to see Dustin.

It was him... It was Dustin...

He had just yelled at the entire Yeager family at such a time.

For half a minute, the room fell into stunned silence.

Their faces filled with disdain when they realized it was Dustin who had spoken.

Since when did this worthless man dare to raise his voice in the Yeager family?

"Who do you think you are to tell us to shut up?" Zack glared at Dustin. His eyes were brimming with authority.

"You're nothing but trash! Who do you think you are? How dare you speak out of turn in front of your elders? Are you trying to get kicked out of the Yeager family?" Alex snarled angrily. "Even Patricia knows her place and stays quiet. Who gave you the right to speak like that?"

The entire Yeager family turned their cold and hostile gazes on Dustin.

"Who said we didn't produce any results from the pig farm?" Dustin said calmly.

The room fell silent again. This time, they were in disbelief.

"What a joke!” Alex scoffed and stared at Dustin condescendingly. "You managed

to get results from that rundown farm? Impossible!

"I know everything. You didn't lift a finger since you started managing the farm, not even basic repairs. So, where are these magical results supposed to come from? Did they fall from the sky?"

The Yeager family chuckled along with him.

Unless results had literally dropped from the heavens, there was no way Dustin

was telling the truth. They were sure he was bluffing.

"If you're so confident, show us the results. But if you can't, you'll regret ever

opening your mouth!" Zack warned as if he was threatening Dustin.

He would not tolerate someone of Dustin's standing speaking out in the Yeager family without proof.

"Go ahead, show us!" Alex taunted. "I'm dying to see what you've got."

Patricia's heart raced as she glanced at Dustin.

Even she did not believe he could come up with better results. He had not done anything all week.

Why had he acted so recklessly and provoked the Yeager family?

There was no way out.

The Yeager family was united in their hostility. They would not let Dustin off the

hook.

It was clear that this was all part of a scheme. They did not just want to humiliate Patricia but to trap Dustin as well.
