Mobile Blood Bank: I Leave My Ugly Family Behind! Chapter 1
When my biological parents found me, I was rummaging through a pile of stones in a rural trash heap.
They couldn't even hide the excitement on their faces when they saw my dirty appearance.
Without hesitation, they brought me, their biological daughter, back home as an adopted child. Not only did they want me to be a mobile blood bank for their adopted daughter, but they also forced me to marry an old man for business gains.
I toyed with the piece of jade raw stone I had picked up from the trash heap.
They probably didn't know that I was exactly like a good luck charm. The better people treated me, the luckier they got, and vice versa.
One
The moment my mother Rayne Hebert saw me, she rushed over to me, ignoring the dirt on me, and hugged me tightly. Her voice was trembling as her tears were falling on my shoulder. "Athena Spencer, I finally found you."
Behind my father Draven Harrell stood a delicate-looking girl biting her lip, her eyes reddening as she coughed heavily.
Rayne's body stiffened, and she quickly let go of me, turning to show concern for Laura Harrell, promising that she would always be their lovely daughter in the Harrell family.
Laura curled her lips slightly, covering her mouth and nose as she looked at me weakly. "Athena, I really want to be as healthy as you! I have congenital heart disease, and I'm not even their biological child. Who knows how long I'll live..."
Before she could finish, Rayne started crying, comforting her for a long time.
I stroked the jade raw stone in my hand and sneered, "I wouldn't mind trading places with you, but I doubt you if you would enjoy a life of scavenging through trash."
Laura's face turned pale, and Rayne seemed to realize something, sighed, and shoved her into the luxury car. She then turned to take the stone from my hand, intending to throw it away. "Athena, I won't let you suffer anymore."
I snatched it back. "This is a treasure!"
I had intentionally sought out that piece of jade, but unfortunately, no one recognized its value.
But Rayne misunderstood it. After taking me downtown, she bought me a bunch of clothes and jewelry and treated me to a spa day.
When she saw the old scars on my back, she cried again and swore to make it up to me.
when Laura called to say she wasn't feeling well, Rayne immediately rushed us home worriedly. "Laura is in poor health. Please take good care of her in the future."
When we got home, Laura's eyes widened at the sight of the shopping bags in my hand, and her face turned pale in an instant. "Athena, you shouldn't be so vain."
I wondered, Is she playing the innocent card with me? But she’s still naive.
I pointed to the pile of jewelry and high-end clothes on the sofa, saying, "But you got so much more there, so doesn't that mean..."
Laura's expression changed. She handed me a bunch of stained and greasy clothes quickly. "Athena, from now on, what's mine is yours!"
"Mom, is our family so poor that I can only wear old clothes now?" I turned to Rayne.
Rayne shot Laura an unpleasant look, and Laura's face turned ashen as she forced a smile and pulled me upstairs, acting like the mistress of the house.
"Athena, please treat here as your own home from now on. Just relax."
I curled my lips slightly, thinking, Want to play tricks with me? Does she think I've lived all these years in vain?
I walked into her delicate room quickly, threw myself onto her pink bed, and rolled around.
Laura's face instantly darkened and her eyes widened in disbelief as she clutched her chest and gasped for air.
Rayne immediately supported her as she shot me a disapproving look at me. "Athena! What do you mean by this?! You've annoyed Laura so much that she's having a heart attack!"
I pursed my lips and pretended to be aggrieved. "But didn't she say we could share everything?"
Laura forced a smile. "Athena, are you blaming me for taking your place? But I..."
She just changed the topic and took the moral high ground.
I interrupted, "Isn't that the case? I sent the paternity test results to you half a year ago, but none of you showed any intention of coming to get me."
In an instant, the expressions of the three of them changed.
