Two years after I was sent to the mountains, I learned my lesson.

Two years ago, Jessica threw a fit and tried to end her life. That’s why my adoptive brother sent me deep into the remote mountains.

“The Carters kindly adopted you, but they raised an ungrateful monster. Why didn’t you just die in those mountains?”

“Alice, you don’t deserve to live!”
