Chapter 10: The Eternal Tooth Mark on the Shoulder
Evelyn was teased by fate since she was young. She was forced to leave the hustle and bustle and was sent to the countryside at the age of nine. She had long given up any extravagant hopes for her so-called father, Ethan. Sure enough, that phone call was as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth.
Ethan, the familiar figure, is still obsessed with the illusory world of medicine, pursuing illusory glory and face, trying to push Smith family medical care to an unknown peak. The shining star in his eyes is Grace, the daughter he is proud of. As for Evelyn, this child who returned from the countryside, she is just a tool for him to exchange for benefits, a chess piece for wedding, and a doll to sleep with.
" Dad, I understand. I will go there as promised tomorrow." Evelyn 's voice is calm and indifferent, as if she is telling someone else's story.
