Days later, the police called.
They summoned Mom and Dad to the police station, unsure how to begin with the two haggard figures before them.
“I think you should see this.”
The pharmacy owner confessed quickly and eagerly provided the store’s surveillance
footage.
He emphasized the segment from my birthday party three years ago.
The pharmacy downstairs has advanced surveillance, capturing movements 360 degrees,
and it just manages to show the dispute on the second floor of my house from afar-
After a brief conversation with me, my older sister stepped back and jumped down the
stairs.
“She’s a monster!”
Dad was trembling violently, lunging to take his anger out on the computer, but the police
restrained him.
They’ve been weeping bitterly these past few days, and I’m so tired of watching it that I can’t
even feel a ripple of emotion.
What good is belated regret?
They transferred a large sum of money to Mr. Lewis, but he refused to accept it.
He replied coldly with four words.
“I don’t deserve it.”
On the seventh day of their unrestrained venting of regret, the older sister finally couldn’t bear it any longer and ran out of the hospital.
They were cleaning out my bedroom at home and didn’t even look up when she returned.
“Mom and Dad! Why didn’t you answer my phone?”
She kicked over the stacked old belongings in the storage room, forcing them to pay
attention to her.
“Why are you cleaning up this dump? Is Yulia Wyatt coming back?”
“Is she finally coming back to donate a kidney to me?”
Mom and Dad gave her a cold look, continuing to tidy up my belongings one by one.
“Please don’t do this, I’m scared.”
“Are you still angry about me changing the medicine? Mom, Dad, all medicine has side effects. I was just worried about my younger sister getting sick from taking the wrong medication, so I spoke with the pharmacist about switching it to vitamins.”
Unsurprisingly, my older sister pouted again, tears streaming down her face, looking as pitiful as a doll.
This trick always worked on Mom and Dad.
In the past, whenever she gave that look, Mom and Dad would unconditionally favor her. The toys were hers, the pocket money was hers.

Unsurprisingly, my older sister pouted again, tears streaming down her face, looking as

This trick always worked on Mom and Dad.
In the past, whenever she gave that look, Mom and Dad would unconditionally favor her.
The toys were hers, the pocket money was hers.
Naturally, she assumed my kidney should be hers as well.
Dad sneered:
“You want her kidney? That’s impossible.”
She was stunned.
“Why? Does she still resent me for stealing your attention? I’ll explain everything to her. If she just donates a kidney, I’ll leave the country immediately and stay away, leaving Mom and Dad all
to herself.”
She rambled on alone in the room, completely oblivious to the fact that Mom and Dad were
already frowning.
to!
Yeah, a child who grew up being favored could never learn to read people’s faces like I had
Mom shook her head:
“Yulia Wyatt never hated you.”
“You can go to the underworld and ask her why she won’t donate a kidney to you!”
Her older sister’s pupils dilated. Her lips parted and trembled for a long moment, her
expression visibly panicking.
“She’s dead? What am I going to do now!”
-Slap!
A slap cut off her wailing.
Her older sister covered her face, eyes wide, staring blankly at her parents, unable to process
the fact that she had just been struck.
“How could you hit me? I’m ill.”
The father raised his hand to strike again, trembling with anger and unsteady on his feet. He
slammed his fist on the table, the bang shaking the whole house.
“You have no right to mention being sick!”
“Yulia Wyatt was sick too, but what were you doing then? You switched her medication! You deliberately jumped down the stairs and framed her for pushing you!”
“Helen Wyatt! Your mother and I have favored you too much. How can you still be so
ungrateful!”
The older sister’s face went from green to white. Then, stubbornly raising her head, she screamed hysterically:
“What favoritism? If you truly favored her, you wouldn’t have even brought her into this
world!”

“Yes, I changed her medication, but what about you? You drove her out of the house and
completely abandoned her.”
“And now you claim I’m ungrateful and that I’m the one harming her!”
“Even if I am the murderer, you’re still accomplices! You’re complicit!”
Her words made Mom and Dad flush with shame, and they lowered their heads, unable to
retort.
After a long silence, Dad finally broke the suffocating quiet.
“Just go back to the hospital. We don’t want to see you again.“
