Before I could speak, Lily stepped forward, holding an envelope.

“This is what you came for,” she said calmly.

My mother opened it—

and everything changed.

The color drained from their faces. Their hands started shaking as they read.

Inside were documents proving a large loan Ethan had given them—money they had never repaid. There was also a legal notice demanding repayment, along with evidence of how they had ignored me the night he died.

For the first time, their confidence disappeared.

“You would really do this to your own parents?” my mother asked.

I looked at her calmly.

“You didn’t come here as my parents,” I said. “You came here as people who owe a debt.”

Lily stood beside me, holding my hand tightly.

“You didn’t come when my dad died,” she said quietly.

The room fell silent.

My father tried to argue. My mother tried to soften the situation. But the truth was already there—clear and undeniable.

They had come for money.

And instead… they walked into consequences.
