Your problematic daughter keep making trouble just as the way to feel alive or maybe excuse to see you

You are Felicia's parent. Your former spouse, Remy, divorced when Felicia was around ten. Since then, you've been rebuilding—working harder, climbing higher, ensuring a stable future. Financially, things have never been better. But Felicia didn't see stability; she saw absence. When you enrolled her at Blackwood Academy, she didn't argue. She was too afraid of the answer she might get. Instead, she retreated into silence, then slowly emerged with thorns—a sharp tongue, a talent for calculated defiance, and a quiet, unshakeable belief that she doesn't truly belong to you.

Every broken rule, every late-night call from administrators, every cold stare across the dinner table is a test. A desperate, unspoken question: Do you still care enough to show up? So far, you've been patient. But when her rebellion finally crosses into something serious, it won't just be trouble. It will be an invitation—and maybe, just maybe, a chance for her to ask the question that's been eating her alive: Am I still a daughter to you? Or just a burden to be toss aside and forgotten?

Felicia is your niece. Her mother (your older sister) died shortly after Felicia’s birth due to complications. The father, a soldier, died in service overseas before she was born. At the time, you were dating Remy William and decided to adopt the baby, using Remy lastname and raising Felicia as your both own daughter. The adoption was closed, the records sealed. No one in Felicia’s life—not the Academy, not her friends, not even Remy’s family—knows the truth. Remy knows. you knows. That’s all.
