Chapter 2

Once upon a time, I couldn't figure out why she treated me like this when I was clearly her real daughter.

But after experiencing the death in the hospital, I was now extremely clear-headed.

My mom didn't love me at all, and she didn't love my dad either.

She could have indifferently watched my kidney being ripped out and watched my dad moaning in pain in the ICU.

She could have gone behind my back to sell my kidney at a high price and take out my kidney. She could have let me die alone on a cold operating table when I had no use for her.

My broken heart sank again and again.

When Dad heard my rebuttal, a flash of relief flashed in his eyes, but he quickly lowered his head again.

He had been oppressed by Mom for so many years, so long that it had become a habit to not be able to raise his head.

Mom brought out the food.

But with three people in the house, there were only two plates of very little food.

Seeing the lunchbox in my mom's hand, I understood.

Mom didn't stay at the dining table for a second. She changed her shoes and prepared to go out.

Dad looked panicky when Mom took out a few test papers from his bag.

Mom sneered, "What a waste!"

When she finished speaking and turned to leave, I stopped her.

"Mom, I saw you frying a steak earlier. Where's the steak?"

"What's in your hand? Dad, are those the test papers I asked you to buy for me?"

It was the first time I exposed my mom directly for food, and a flash of embarrassment flew across her face.

But when she heard me asking about the test papers, her face darkened.

"What are you talking about? Can you understand them? You're at the bottom of the school. What are you pretending in front of me? I'm your mom and I know you well!"

"It's a waste to buy you papers! Your dad is stupid and insists on wasting money on you! It's better to burn it to the ancestors and let them bless him to get rich!"

Listening to her disdainful and disgusted voice, I couldn't help but speak out angrily, "Has my dad spent less money on family over the years? His income can rank in the top 20% among his peers. Don't you know why you can have a good life without working?"

Mom's gaze swept over with resentment as if she wanted to tear me apart on the spot.

But the meal in her hand waited for no one.

She hurriedly said, "You bitch. I will teach you a lesson when I come back!"

Then she turned around and left.

I looked up and saw the sadness and guilt in my father's eyes, which made my heart feel sour and bitter.

I would definitely protect my dad this time.

But he had been brainwashed by Mom for many years, so I needed to make him see Mom's true colors first.

The whole school didn't expect me to win this competition. I became the dark horse in everyone's eyes.

To avoid a fuss and ensure that my plan went smoothly, I only allowed the teacher to announce that I was the winner of the preliminary round and had won 80 thousand dollars as the prize.

Before I got home, I put the rest of the money, except for 80 thousand, on another bank card.

Then I pretended to be surprised and rushed to my dad.

"I won the preliminary round of the group and got a prize of 80 thousand dollars!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I gave him a look of regret.

"It's a pity that I failed in the promotion match, so I can only go so far..."

My mom's eyes flashed with greed and quickly returned to her usual indifference.

She said sarcastically, "I told you long ago that your daughter is not capable, but you didn't believe it. If you had registered Yara, maybe she could have won hundreds of thousands of dollars!"

My dad didn't seem to hear her words, just looking at me with joy.

"My daughter has really grown up, and I'm proud of you!"

His eyes were full of concern, "It's not easy to win the championship in the group stage, right? You lost weight from exhaustion... I will take you out for a big meal tonight to make up for it!"

Mom glared at me.

I pretended not to notice her and said, "I haven't lost weight. You secretly gave me midnight snacks for a few days and I gained weight. But you have lost a lot of weight. I'm going to book you in for a full body check-up in the hospital."

In fact, Dad didn't have any illness now. It was just that I wanted him to discover the lesion in advance this time and treat it earlier.

Dad's eyes instantly welled up with tears after hearing this.

I continued, "I plan to use the remaining money to enroll in a SAT tutorial class for myself. After all, I have bad grades. I will also buy a water dispenser for your office. You shouldn't drink beverages at work. It's not healthy..."

Before I could finish my sentence, my mom couldn't wait to interrupt, "I don't agree!"

"What's the point of having a medical check-up? He will find problems even if he's not sick! What's the point of buying a water dispenser? Can't others use it? We should drink the same way as others do. Why spend money on others?"

"Don't enroll in the tutorial class. It's useless for you. Enroll Yara instead. She will definitely get into a good school and she will repay you with more than 20 thousand dollars!"

I laughed at my mother's shamelessness.
