Chapter 712:
“Minna, you... How did you end up like this?” she asked.
Shock widened Macie’s eyes as she took in Minna’s drastically altered appearance, which had changed so much
in just a few days. Minna’s eyes were nearly swollen shut, a dark bruise shadowing her left eye, and her lips were
tinged purple from more bruising. Red marks encircled her neck, their cause unclear. Dressed in long sleeves and
pants, it was impossible to tell if she had other injuries on her body. However, the state of her face suggested her
body might be in even worse condition.

Full of worry, Macie rushed to Minna’s side. “Minna, what happened to you? How did this happen? Was it Moshe?
Did he do this to you?”
Suddenly, Macie recalled the rumors about Moshe. In the past few days, Minna had cried more than she ever had
in her entire life. She could never have imagined living like this. To her, Moshe was a true monster, devising new
ways to hurt her every day. He had even gone so far as to buy a dog cage and a leash, as if intent on stripping
her of every shred of dignity. She felt she couldn't take this anymore.
Moshe had taken her phone away long ago, cutting off her access to the internet. Whenever her father called,
Moshe would either answer the phone himself or stand over her, monitoring every word she said. Before allowing
her to speak, Moshe would threaten her, warning that any slip of the truth would mean double the punishment.
His cruelty seemed boundless, leaving her in constant terror. Paralyzed by fear, she remained silent, too afraid to
tell her father the truth.

“How could he do this to you? Is he out of his mind? Doesn't he care what your father could do to the Burke
family?” Macie said, stunned by Moshe’s blatant cruelty.
Before the wedding, Minna had assured Macie that with Rhys around, the Burke family wouldn't dare harm her.
“It's all Mr. Clark's doing!” Minna cried, tears streaming down her face. “He's the one telling Moshe to mistreat
me! With his support, Moshe isn’t afraid of my father at all!”

Her tears flowed freely, her spirit crushed under the weight of despair. Each moment of her recent ordeal
replayed in her mind, stretching endlessly in her memory.
Macie’s eyes widened in disbelief as she listened. This entire matter had been orchestrated by Lucas?
Lucas’ cruelty was beyond belief. To Macie, it had already seemed inhumane that Minna had been forced to
marry Moshe. But that had turned out to be just the beginning of Minna’s suffering. It was likely Lucas who had
orchestrated the release of the scandalous video at Minna’s wedding banquet. The realization made Macie’s
heart pound with fear.
The mere thought of Lucas discovering that she had devised the plan Minna had used against Belinda filled her
with dread. The potential consequences were too horrifying to imagine.
