"Look who decided to grace us with her presence, if it isn't her royal highness Scarlet Su, the rich noble woman." A voice laced with bitter sarcasm drew her attention away from her bracelet and she looked up.

The one talking and eyeing her with a mocking gaze was none other than her third sister Carolyn Su. Carolyn held a big grudge against Scarlet for causing her to lose her job, boyfriend, their current circumstances and looking down on their family. Scarlet and Carolyn had never had the easiest relationship, she was clever, blonde and beautiful, something which the scheming, black haired, less beautiful and dark hearted Scarlet was always jealous of. The only thing the two of them had in common was their grey eyes. All of Baron Dorian Su's children had his grey eyes.

While the old Scarlet would respond to Carolyn with an insult, the new Scarlet chose to respond with politeness. She had bumped her head and gone into a coma. A near death experience was the perfect excuse to use if anybody doubted her personality changes. She would take advantage of this to fully rectify all of Scarlet's mistakes.

"Older sister, hello." She responded with a small smile on her face.

Carolyn steeped back away from Scarlet with shock and worry on her face. "What are you planning on doing now Scarlet? We don't have any money to give you if that's why you are here. And if you do anything stupid that pushes our family into the abyss any further I will end you." Carolyn threatened her angrily.

Scarlet waved her hands around while saying, "Older sister I am not planning anything I simply came to see where you all work and spend some time with Justin."

Carolyn's eyes widened and she shouted, "Adlerrrrr....." calling him loudly like a young child that needed protection from a bully and he or she was calling for a stronger older sibling.

All Scarlet saw was a shadow of something flying and then a metallic man dropped in between Carolyn and her.

Reacting by instinct, Scarlet assumed a fighting stance and brought her dagger out from her jeans, ready to defend herself.

The metallic figure took its head off like someone taking off a helmet and underneath the metal suit, her oldest brother Adler revealed himself. He was very tall and handsome even though his black hair was spiked like the back of a porcupine.

His eyes moved to Scarlet's stance and dagger then he looked at her unsurely. "You are finally awake." He said.

"Yes, I woke up a few hours ago." Scarlet answered as she put the dagger back into the pocket of her jeans.

"How are you feeling?" he asked. His eyes held a bit of concern and some tenderness.

Scarlet was surprised at his concern because out of everyone that had a reason to hate her in this family, Adler was supposed to be at the top of the list.

"I.I.I am fine." She responded unsurely.

Carolyn who was behind Adler stepped out and stood by his side only to shout, "Of course she is fine, she never thinks about the consequences of her actions. Her selfishness will be the end of this family; we should sell her to the Red star and be done with her already."

"Carolyn!!!!" Adler called her in a stern warning voice.

Scarlet shivered at Carolyn's harsh words, the Red star was a planet with a whole lot of minerals, harsh weather conditions and mutated beasts. Prisoners were sent to those mines and most of them died before serving out their sentence. Scarlet was not a good person but sending her to the Red star was cruel, it was a death sentence.

"After everything she has done, you are still defending her." Carolyn answered Adler in a disappointed voice.

"She is our family." Adler emphasized the word family.

"Yes I am your family." Scarlet added in as an extra reminder. "I am sorry okay, I have been a terrible sister and daughter but selling me to the Red star, how does that make you a better sister Carolyn? It makes you no different from me."

Her apology shocked both of her older siblings but her last words brought a sneer to Carolyn's face. "I will never be like you Scarlet, you are a leech. I worked for everything I had before I lost it all because of you. You on the other hand chose to live a fake lavish lifestyle and commit a crime for which we are all paying."

Carolyn looked at Adler and said, "She wants to see Justin, I don't care how you handle it." She turned and walked away. free webno vel

Scarlet would not be stopped from proving that she had changed, "I am sorry Carolyn, I am really sorry. I will prove to you all that I have changed, make sure that you give me a chance."

Carolyn looked back one last time and then she left.

Adler's icy grey eyes turned to Scarlet and he asked. "Why are you looking for Justin? Are you planning to hit him again because if you do, I will agree to Carolyn's proposal and sell you to the Red star?"

No wonder Carolyn called Adler when she showed up asking for Justin, not only was she a bad mother, she was also an abusive one!!!

It was a miracle that this family had not barbequed Scarlet over a fire and fed her to the wolves. Had she, Su Yan offended somebody in her past that of all the bodies she could have ended up in, she ended up in this one?

"I have no intentions of laying a hand on Justin; I want to make things right with him brother. This near death experience made me return to my senses. I have lived a bad life, a foolish one in so many ways. Every decision that I have made has been out of pure selfishness. But I am a changed woman now, I know you will not believe me but I am going to prove it to you all.

I will work hard to make you all forgive me. I will also work hard to make this situation better for our family; it was my entire fault that we ended up here after all."

She looked down and said, "I am sorry Adler, your dreams were shattered because of me. Will you ever forgive me?"

To her shock and his, tears seemed to be spilling down her face. She was crying for herself as the dead Su Yan and for the little boy who had suffered at Scarlet's hands.

Her heart was heavy with sadness that had somehow managed to overwhelmed her suddenly.

"Don't cry." Adler said to her. "You are not the only one to blame in this situation, I should have checked in on you more and corrected you when you started going down the wrong path. I failed you as your oldest brother. If you are genuinely sorry and willing to make amends, I will not stand in your way but you should understand that it's not going to be easy. You have broken everyone's heart Scarlet so if they push you away, you should not react angrily but be patient and polite."

He surprised her by hugging her.

Once she was all cried out, Adler surprised her more by saying, "You might as well come out Justin, I saw your silver hair already."

Scarlet stepped out of Adler's embrace to see the boy who was now her child and when she did see him, she gasped.
