I responded with an emotionless “Mm” and walked straight inside. Harry visibly relaxed when he saw this.
He quickly walked to my side and lowered his voice: “Lulu, Ryan has been… ever since the accident, he’s been in really bad shape. Tonight’s the first time he’s seemed better. I hope you can help him through this.”
“He’s my only brother. I can’t stand watching him go on like
this.”
Back in the room, after thinking it over, I finally spoke up: “Ryan, your brother doesn’t seem to be guarding against you like outsiders say. He seems to really care about you.”
Ryan was quiet for a moment, then looked at me and said: “I’m pretending to be paralyzed because I suspect Seth was the one
who hit me.”
“I didn’t tell you before because I was worried you still had feelings for him.”
Remembering what Seth had said in my previous life, I nodded silently.
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Seth walked in carrying two glasses of wine, wearing a sinister smile: “Auntie, I’m here to apologize to you.”

But he burst into laughter: “Just because I call you auntie, you actually think you’re my elder?”
“Lulu, how did I never notice how desperate you were before? You won’t even let a cripple go?”
“Get out,” Ryan warned.
Seth turned to look at Ryan, his laughter becoming even more unrestrained: “Uncle, the Garner family will all be mine eventually. If anyone should get out, it’s you, you useless waste.”
With that, he suddenly lunged forward and grabbed my chin: “Dump me? No one gets to dump me, including you.” His grip was strong, and he pressed me down onto the table.
Seeing this, Ryan immediately rushed over and yanked him backward.
Seth crashed heavily to the floor, then was run over by Ryan’s wheelchair, letting out a piercing scream: “You!”
Ryan looked down at him from above: “If you dare touch my wife again, I’ll kill you.”
Seth crawled up from the floor and spat: “You? What can a cripple do?”
“Tonight I’m going to take care of this crazy woman Lulu right in front of you. Let’s see what you can do about it!”
He raised his foot to kick Ryan, but didn’t expect Ryan to Suddenly

stand up and grab his foot, twisting it backward.
Seth crashed heavily to the ground again with a dull thud.

Seeing Ryan standing upright, his face went pale and his voice trembled: “You… how can you stand up?!”
“This is impossible!”
Just then, Ryan’s phone vibrated.
He glanced at the message, then without a word, picked me up and headed outside. As we passed Seth, his voice carried a bone-chilling coldness: “Your time is up.”
Ryan carried me to the living room, where Harry and Mrs. Garner were coming downstairs in their pajamas: “What’s wrong?”
But when they saw Ryan standing, their expressions instantly turned to pure joy.
Harry looked at me in disbelief: “Lulu, you really are our Garner family’s lucky star! As soon as you arrived, Ryan got better!”
But Ryan said nothing, his eyes coldly fixed on the stairway. Harry sensed something was wrong and quietly asked me: “What happened?”
I told them everything that had just occurred.
After hearing it, Harry was shaking with rage: “That animal! I’m 3/4
going to beat him to death today!”

Just then, a man in a black suit hurried over and handed Ryan a document envelope.
Ryan opened the envelope, which contained a pile of printed chat records and a USB drive.
When Seth saw those items, his face instantly turned ashen.
He rushed down from the stairs and snatched the printouts, frantically tearing them apart: “This is slander! You’re framing me! Then driving me away so you can monopolize the Garner family fortune, right?!”
n let out a cold laugh and directly inserted the USB drive the computer.
Soon, Seth’s voice came clearly through the speakers: “Hit him hard, I want Ryan either dead or paralyzed!”
“That way he can’t compete with my dad for the family fortune, and everything will be mine!”
