Chapter280

My mom forced me to donate a kidney to my sister.

The surgery failed, and I died.

Three years later, Mom sat alone in a dark room and dialed my number.

Sobbing, she pleaded with the stranger who answered, "Grace, when are you coming home? "I know I messed up. Can you forgive me?"

A man's angry voice barked back. "I've told you countless times, I'm not your daughter! Leave me alone!"

He hung up.

Mom buried her face in her hands, crying my name over and over.

The absurdity of it struck me.

Didn she forget I died three years ago? My surgery was a failure, but Lucia's was

a success.

She received my kidney, and everyone rejoiced, even my boyfriend, Antonio Kaufman.

They hugged, cheering her recovery.

The doctor, looking uncomfortable, reminded my parents, "Lucia's surgery was successful, but Grace didn't survive. She's gone."

My dad's response was chillingly indifferent, "It's not like she's really gone."

Mom ignored the doctor completely. "When can we see Lucia? She must be in pain."

Antonio echoed the sentiment. "Let's get Lucia some blueberry juice; it's her favorite."

Seeing their complete lack of concern for me, the doctor finally shouted, "Grace is dead! Do you understand?"
