NovelXXXChapter 538 Monica and Wade sat frozen, still reeling from Citrine's story. For years, they had believed their little sister had been living a good life, never imagining the kind of abuse she had suffered in that old house.
With grim faces, they pulled up Twitter.
The moment they saw the trending clarification, both of them went pale. Tears welled up in their eyes.
CICI: My piano teacher was Dick. Privately, he was a pedophile who liked to hit people. I was only ten, confused and scared. I just knew that if I didn't obey, I'd get beaten. What's so wrong with not wanting to be hurt? To tug at people's hearts even more, Citrine had added a crying emoji at the end. Hands shaking, Monica and Wade clicked on the video.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt opened with a brutal scene: Citrine being beaten. Previous versions had blurred out the abuser's face, but now, for the first time, Monica and Wade saw him clearly.
It was Dick.
They fought the urge to storm out and kill him, forcing themselves to keep watching.
"Stupid brat, giveyour hand." "If you don't, I'll beat you to death." "Hurry up." Young Citrine stared Dick down, her eyes icy. "I don't want to learn piano anymore. Get out." Dick gripped his belt tighter, his face twisted with rage as he whipped it across her back. "Say that again, I dare you!" Citrine shouted back, her voice full of disgust. "You're disgusting. Get out of here!" That was the last straw for Dick.
He grabbed Citrine by the throat, slammed her to the floor, and focused his blows on the parts of her body hidden by clothing.
By the end, blood was soaking through the back of her shirt. That's when Citrine finally broke.
She sobbed, begging, "Please, teacher, I'm sorry. I'll do whatever you say. Please stop hitting me." Then, trembling, she walked over and placed her hand on Dick's thigh.
The video ended there. Monica and Wade knew all too well what happened next. No one had seen this coming.
Now, Citrine sat alone on stage, looking heartbreakingly lost.
The reporters, shocked by the truth, forgot their questions. All they wanted now was to comfort her.

Don't worry-someone like that will never get away with it." All around, the guests were whispering.
"That bastard really is named Dick. Talk about living up to the name." "So President Carmichael's piano teacher was Dick. If I'd known it was him, I never would have doubted her for a second." "That Dick used his connections with d.ne
the Glenwood family to hurt so many girls. Remember the scandals with his wife? They were trending for days and never cdown." "President Carmichael's so unlucky. She did nothing wrong, and yet people smeared her all over the internet. The ones who posted those videos and tried to stir things up are just evil."
