Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 78

Once Amara and Elysia set off to address the issue, it didn't take long for Amara to uncover the evidence she

needed, thanks to Elowen's predictable behavior.

She marched straight into the Sullivan Group headquarters and entered the chairman's office, dropping the proof

onto Larry's desk with a determined thud.

"Dad."

The mask covering her face, she stood in front of Larry, her eyes rimmed with a hint of red, revealing her

distress.

"Dad, someone's posted pictures of my disfigurement online over the past few days. It's led to spretty harsh

personal attacks. Did you know about this?"

Larry nodded, his expression darkening. “Why are you bringing this to me?”

Larry was a man who valued his reputation above all else. Having a daughter with a facial disfigurement was

already a sore spot for him, and the fact that it had gone public only added fuel to his fiery pride.

However, since Amara's real nand identity had been kept under wraps-thanks to her online pseudonym —

his anger had slightly subsided.

"Dad," Amara continued, biting her lip, her tone a mix of hurt and resolve. "I know you never believedwhen |

callinga bad kid who slandered my sister instead. That really hurt.

Amara's demeanor shifted from soft-spoken to fiercely determined. As her piece finished, she turned slightly,

tears welling up and slipping down her cheeks, which she quickly wiped away.

Larry, seated in his leather swivel chair, looked beyond upset.

"So, you're tellingthat unmasked photo was posted online by your sister?"

"Yes, she took that photo without my knowledge. | suspected it immediately and looked into it. Sure enough.

Here, this is the evidence, Dad. Take a look."

Amara pushed the evidence across the desk towards him. Larry's face went from sour to a furious shade of red

as he examined the documents. A few moments later, he slammed his hand down on the desk,

eli

bellowing, "That rebellious brat! How could she do something so outrageous to you? This is utterly unacceptable!

Don't worry, I'll make sure she gets what she deserves!"

Despite Larry's promise to discipline Elowen, Amara had her doubts. Elowen had a knack for getting into trouble,

and although Larry would often react with anger, claiming he would teach her a lesson, his resolve would always

wane after Fiona stepped in with her soothing words.

Amara used to think Elowen was lucky, having a mother who doted on her so much. But eventually, Amara

realized Fiona's unwavering protection wasn't a blessing-it was a subtle form of indulgence that would

eventually lead to Elowen's downfall as she grew older.
