The dog was brought in. That’s when I realized the cruel truth: no matter what I did, they would never spare my father’s ashes.

I rushed forward and landed a punch on Madison, but they had too many people. We fought, but I was quickly restrained.

The conference room was chaos, but none of the others dared step in. Only Grace fought at my side, and she was soon pinned down too.

Summoning all her strength, Grace broke free and threw herself at Madison. “Olivia, run!”

Madison, furious, pummeled her with fists.

“Old hag, get out of my way!”

“Hahaha, go to hell, you worthless beggar. Even in a crown, you’ll never be a princess.”

Tears welled in my eyes at Grace’s loyalty. I reached out for the urn, but Ethan slammed an ashtray into my head.

Dizziness swept over me as Ethan sneered, “So devoted, huh? Then keep those eyes wide open and watch your father’s ashes get fed to a dog.”
