Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

Chapter: 433
Those days, I harbored ill feelings for him. His presence sparked regular arguments between my parents, disturbing our peaceful
existence...”
Sabrina had heard of this earlier. Larry’s parents had later died in a car crash. According to the CCTV footage, they were fighting
fiercely over the steering wheel, Leading to the accident.
A bystander claimed they were arguing heatedly. It seemed the man was involved with another woman and had fathered a child.
In that instant, Sabrina connected the dots.
The children born out of wedlock would face societal judgment.
These unfortunate children, comprehending the implications of their origin, would sink into self-loathing, questioning their own
right to exist.
Despite being born into a wealthy family and having Cesar’s protection,
Tyrone still had to socialize and attend school. Unfortunately, some people would always bring up his background and ridicule
him.
Was it possible, despite his polished exterior, that he harbored a deep-seated feeling of not deserving to be alive?
Moreover, Larry’s parents met their tragic end due to Tyrone. Did he ever pin the blame on himself, wondering if he was indirectly
responsible for orphaning Larry?
Larry’s subsequent words seemed to support her hypothesis.
“At that point, I was in denial about my parents’ demise and directed all my resentment towards Tyrone. I would often torment
him in secret, warning him against revealing anything to Grandpa. Initially, I feared Grandpa’s knowledge. However, I discovered
that Tyrone would cover for me before Grandpa, until Grandpa began to suspect something.
Unlike the typical older brother who would yield to the younger, Tyrone would proactively accommodate me. I believe he has
always harbored guilt regarding my parents and seeks to atone by placating me. Over time, this has transformed into an
obsession. I’m sure he feels the same way about Galilea.”

“Really?” Sabrina muttered under her breath.
“Has Tyrone confided in you about their relationship?”
She realized that Larry was referring to what happened to Galilea.
Rolf had mentioned it briefly before, but she lacked the full details of the incident.
Without waiting for her response, Larry gazed out the window, saying, “At the time, Tyrone was just starting his internship in the
company.
Caught between academics and work, he unintentionally neglected Galilea. Following a heated argument, she ran off crying, yet
he didn’t pursue her. It was only when her friend alerted him that he realized she was missing.
Soon after, he received a ransom demand for Galilea’s release. The kidnappers had targeted her because of Tyrone. If he
complied, perhaps Galilea would’ve been safe. But Tyrone, stubborn as he was, refused to yield to threats. He informed the
police. Somehow, the kidnappers found out... Subsequently, they raped Galilea.”
The reality hit her hard.
Sabrina felt a pang of sympathy.
His loved one had been abducted and abused due to his mishandling. His guilt and remorse were understandable.
Larry, despite being a Blakely, was raised amidst wealth and had access to all material comforts. Yet, he craved his parents’
affection, a void Tyrone couldn’t possibly fill.
