Born As Kidney Donor For My Sister Novel by BEIJITA

“Mom, please lie down and rest.”

“If you don’t take care of yourself now, I’ll end up an orphan again.”

I couldn’t help but rub my forehead

Maria blinked in surprise then hurriedly replied,

“I know, I know

*I’ll sleep now.

The moment she lay down, all three of the Smiths dropped to their knees in unison.

Mrs. Smith even bowed her head to the floor

“I’m sorry for all the trouble we’ve caused these past years. Please continue to take care of Sarah.”

“If there’s anything you need, just say the word. If it’s within my power, I won’t hesitate.”

As soon as she finished speaking, I waved my hand, signaling for them to leave.

In just a matter of days, before Maria and I had even been discharged from the hospital, we suddenly heard some explosive news.

“The Smiths personally sent their daughter to prison–Is this the downfall of morality or the rise of humanity?”

When Maria actually uttered such news, it somehow struck us as oddly amusing.

“Sarah, will you leave this city with me?”

“We’ll start a new life together.”

I smiled.

Nodding, I pulled out the offer letter I had in my hand.

“I’ve been waiting for you to say that.”

“Look at this—it’s an offer from New York.”

“We’re going to have a wonderful future..”

Maria paused briefly, then slapped her thigh.

“Oh my goodness, what are we going to take to New York?”

“Where will we get the upfront expenses? Don’t we have to rent a place over there?”

Maria couldn’t help but let out a groan.

I automatically pointed at her pocket.

“Don’t tell me you’re reluctant to spend the money they gave us?”

“Now that it’s ours, we can spend it as we please.”

“Don’t even think about saving it for my dowry. Let’s use it for rent, and you can save for my dowry separately..”

Maria burst into laughter.

She reached out and tapped my forehead.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Just graduated and already thinking about. marriage?” she teased.

“No way. You’re not getting married before thirty at least.”

“Otherwise, I’ll barely get to enjoy my freshly minted daughter before she becomes someone else’s daughter–in–law, and I’m not okay with that.”

I laughed, wrapping my arm around Maria’s.

“Alright, I’ll wait until I’m eighty to get married if you’re willing to take care of me.”

As we talked, I thought I saw a shadow pass by the door.

When I looked again, it was gone.

On my way to get food for Maria, I felt that familiar gaze again.

Not long after, I saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith sneaking around, as if ailing someone.

I stiffened. Were they following me?

They moved closer.

Their faces were now filled with sorrow and defeat, a far cry from the opulence and arrogance they once displayed.

I paused briefly, but there was no reason to avoid them.

They both looked ashamed and cautiously asked,

“Sarah, are you doing well?”

I nodded, a happy smile on my lips.

“How could I not be happy when the person I love most is by my side?”

My words made them visibly downcast, but their feelings were no longer my concern.

They forced a bitter smile before Mr. Smith. spoke.

“We’re here to say goodbye. The company’s bankrupt, and the three of us are heading south to start over.”

“If we manage to rebuild, we’ll make it up to you…”

I waved my hand dismissively.

“No need for that.”

Turning back towards the hospital room, I walked away, leaving them behind.

“From now on, let’s live our own lives in peace.”
