Yunice Saunders Invisible Princess

In her third year at the mental asylum, the nursing assistant frowned as she walked down the corridor, kicking aside the mentally ill patients who were crowded together, playing a game of piling people. As they scattered with distorted screams, the woman at the very bottom of the pile was revealed, curled up motionless.

Her hair was a mess, covering her face, and her gaze was empty as she heard the nursing assistant's harsh words above her.

"It's 10:30, a visitor from home is here. Get up and clean yourself up."

Home... was she talking about the family who had thrown her into this asylum and left her there for three years? They were no longer her family.

Seeing the woman remain motionless, like a corpse on the ground, the nursing assistant impatiently pulled her hair, yanking her to her feet. "Do you want to die? Can't you hear me?"

Yunice Saunders hugged her head with both hands as she was roughly dragged into the bathroom by her collar. The nurse turned on the high-pressure shower, spraying Yunice, who was cowering in a corner, in a manner similar to how they'd treat animals in a cage.

Twenty minutes later, Yunice was taken to the visiting room.

"Mr. Owen, 10:30 is here to see you."

Yunice's empty gaze shifted to the man sitting on the sofa. He had his hands clasped together, elbows propped on his knees, and the deep furrow in his brow revealed profound annoyance and emotion. The man was her second older brother, Owen Saunders.

When Yunice was born, her mother and father had a fight, and after giving birth to her, her mother left home in a rage. Her father searched for her in vain, and passed away when Yunice was 13. After that, it was Oscar Saunders and Owen who took care of the family. At the time, they swore that as long as they were around, no one would bully her. Now, seeing that familiar face again, Yunice felt a sharp pain in her chest, but her gaze was cold.

Her grievances were real, but her resentment was also real. Owen no longer cared for her and personally sent her to the mental asylum.

Owen was also looking at Yunice. On the way here, he had imagined that after three years of separation, Yunice would have realized her mistake and would obediently hug him, begging for forgiveness. But Yunice did not. She stood there with a cold expression. He had come here full of joy, hoping to take his sister home, but she didn't even greet him.

Owen had wanted to get up and hug Yunice, but he hesitated and spoke in an annoyed tone. "Elsie misses you. She begged me to bring you home. From today on, you can leave the mental asylum." When he finally got a reaction from Yunice, Owen's tone changed. "But there's a condition. Once you get home, you must not make things difficult for Elsie."

Yunice's face went pale. They really thought that if she didn't make things difficult for Elsie White, everything at home would go back to normal? It was Elsie who was instrumental in sending her to the asylum.

Five years ago, the police returned her mother, who had been missing for 15 years, along with Elsie, a year younger than Yunice, to the Saunders family. Yunice then learned that her mother had been kidnapped by human traffickers and taken to the mountains, and Elsie was the child she was forced to give birth to. In other words, Elsie was her half-sister.

The family reunion was heartwarming to Oscar and Owen, and they accepted Elsie without resentment, treating her like their own sister. Yunice initially treated Elsie wholeheartedly, wanting to make up for lost time. But Elsie constantly betrayed her behind her back, constantly framing her. To avoid upsetting her brothers and making her mother uncomfortable, Yunice always endured.

Until three years ago, when Yunice was trapped in a fire, and Elsie insisted on rushing in to save her. By the time Owen found them, she had already snatched the gas mask off Yunice's face to give to Elsie.
