Twelve Years After Being Abandoned, My Parents Came To Find Me
Chapter 3
The night before being abandoned, I got up and went to the bathroom.
When I passed by the master bedroom, I heard my parents arguing.
"Throw her out in a few days! You're pregnant now. We can't afford to raise two children!"
"But... Harley is my daughter. I can't bear to..."
"If you can't bear to throw her out, then leave with her! Since she was born, nothing has gone well for me! She's a jinx! Do you know?"
Their argument was loud. Then Elsie said, "Fine! As long as you promise not to drive me away, I'll do whatever you say! I'll send Harley away in the next few days!" Hearing that, I silently cried and ran back to my bedroom.
I knew why Jack wanted to get rid of me. It was not because he couldn't afford to raise two children. I took a sick leave and went home a day ago and accidentally overheard him and my aunt, Thea Holden, talking in the bedroom.
Thea smiled sweetly and said, "When will you deal with Elsie? I can't wait!"
Jack said, "Wait till she gives birth. In that way, after she dies, you can torture her kids slowly while having her money!"
Thea laughed even louder and said, "You're so good at this! I'll wait for your good news then! After she dies, we'll get married at once. I'll be the evil stepmother. Just thinking about it is so exciting!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but tremble all over. I quickly ran back to my own bedroom and hid under the blanket, sobbing incessantly.
However, the overwhelming fear made me forget to be quiet when I ran away. Soon, my bedroom door was forcefully kicked open by Jack.
"You damn girl! How dare you eavesdrop! You're doomed!" He viciously dragged me out of the blanket, while Thea cheered him on from the side.
His hands were like burning tongs, tightly gripping my neck. A scorching sensation of suffocation quickly enveloped me.
In the next moment, the sound of the door opening rang out.
Elsie came home.
Thea's expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly opened the window and jumped out.
Seeing that, Jack released his tight grip. He glared at me with resentment and threatened me word by word, "You damn girl. If you dare to say a word to Elsie about today, I'll kill you both!"
I nodded repeatedly in fear.
Then it was the day they threw me away.
For the first time, Elsie bought me a Barbie doll.
Elsie lied to me and said she had to go to work and didn't have time to accompany me on an outing, so Jack would take me.
She was silly. She forgot that she didn't work on weekends.
Before the car started, I whispered to her by the car window, "Mom, Thea and Dad..."
Before I could finish speaking, she immediately interrupted me angrily and loudly urged Jack to take me away quickly.
The moment the car window was completely closed, I couldn't help but burst into tears and shouted, "Mom, don't leave me! I want to stay and protect you!"
The only response I got was the cruel gaze of Jack in the rearview mirror.
Later, I cried until I was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep in the car.
Before I woke up, Jack stopped the car next to a smelly garbage dump.
With a gloomy face, he took out ropes that had been prepared in advance from the trunk and pulled me out of the car.
"You damn girl! Don't blame me for doing this. You saw something you shouldn't have seen! And you wanna tell that bitch? You're digging your own grave!"
I didn't struggle. I just let him tie my hands and feet tightly with the ropes. Afraid that I would call for help, he took off his socks and stuffed them into my mouth.
Perhaps feeling unlucky, he threw the doll that Elsie gave me into the garbage dump as well.
I was tied up in the middle of the stinky garbage dump. As time passed, my body became colder, and my eyelids became heavier.
Just when I was about to fall asleep completely, a vague and old voice suddenly rang out.
I was forced to donate a kidney, and I parted with Elsie for good.
