Chapter 7

Author: Perfect Timing
My mom pointed at me and began trembling. It took me quite a lot of effort to get her to hold the card.

"Keep hold of it. This is quite a large amount of money that you have spent on raising me for the past three years. I don't want you to lose it."

My dad looked at Lily in disbelief as he asked, "Lily, didn't I give you the money to give to Laura? How come she only gets 100 dollars a month? I gave you 40 thousand a month!"

Lily trembled and lowered her head. Tears immediately began welling u

    The scene was in complete chaos, and the cameras caught how Lily broke down.My parents' faces darkened as they began accusing me."Laura, how dare you set your sister up like this? Are you trying to piss us off?"I smiled indifferently."She's not my sister."Lily and my parents gritted their teeth in anger and left after finding out that there was nothing they could do.The police soon returned and informed me that they had obtained the surveillance footage from the Jackson family's residence.What I didn't expect was that the footage not only recorded Lily assaulting me, but also captured her setting the fire.The fire that changed my life had been set by Lily.As the investigation continued, I learned that Lily liked to make inappropriate friends and had spent money lavishly for the sake of appearances. Therefore, she soon felt that the money given to her every month wasn't enough.She wanted to inherit the family fortune as soon as possible, so she made a desperate move

    Lily's face was covered in tears. She brought forward a couple of young men from the back of the crowd."You were all witnesses to what happened earlier on. Now, tell everyone in front of the cameras about what really happened back then!"The young men looked at each other and said, "We were studying with Lily when Laura suddenly came barging in and tried to take the valuables from Lily's house. She pushed Lily aside as soon as she saw her. As for her own injuries, they were all self-inflicted so that she could frame Lily!"Lily looked satisfied. "Laura, they all saw what happened. There's no way that you can frame me now! I won't hold you accountable for trying to steal from us, and you can drop the charges on me. We can then call it even. We'll have nothing to do with each other from now on.My parents sighed and pulled Lily behind them."Stop wasting time with her, Lily. We don’t want such a stubborn child anyway!"The looks on the journalists' faces changed rapidly.Some of

I gave you 40 thousand a month!"Lily trembled and lowered her head. Tears immediately began welling up in her eyes."I... Laura said that she wanted cash, so I'd go to the bank to withdraw the money before giving it to her. Laura, I thought you wanted cash because you didn't know how to use a bank card, but it seems that you were just trying to set me up! How could you do this to me?"After hearing her explanation, my parents felt relieved.I then added deliberately, "Is that so? Then why don't you show everyone your transaction records? It'll prove that you're innocent as well."Lily fell

    It was my parents and Lily.My dad looked angrily at the journalists and began driving them away."Get out, all of you! Who said you could interview this ungrateful bastard and ruin my daughter's reputation? If you dare spread any rumors about my daughter, I'll sue you all!"My mom looked at me with a dark face.Lily began sobbing. "Laura, I know you don't like me because Mom and Dad both like me and you're jealous. But don't you know why they like me and not you? Why are you always trying to get attention by framing me? You kept hinting to others that I've been bullying you, but have you thought about how your words will affect Mom and Dad's business? You can't just think about yourself and completely forget about the Jackson family's reputation!"I kept quiet as I listened to Lily's sobbing. "I've already severed ties with the Jackson family. Your reputation has nothing to do with me. Besides, I'm not hinting at anything. You're the one who's hurt me, and that's a fact. I've alr

    "Mom, what did that ungrateful bastard say to you? She used a kindness as leverage, slandered Lily, and even declared in front of the cameras that she wanted to sever ties with us. It's a good thing that Lily taught her a lesson! That way, she'll stop causing trouble all the time!"Grandma's right hand, which was holding the phone, began to tremble.She frowned, unable to understand what on earth was happening."Is this what you mean by Lily teaching Laura a lesson? Laura's right arm is fractured, and there's a hole in her head! If I hadn't rushed back after seeing the news about the fire, she might have died on the pavement!""Mom, can't you see that this is just one of Laura's tricks? She showed up in front of the cameras, saying she was severing ties with us, then she used her injuries to frame Lily. She just wants to ruin Lily's reputation. She's just trying to use such methods to drive Lily away!"I shook my right hand, which was now plastered, to stop Grandma from continuing

    When I turned a corner, only journalists who sensed gossip followed me. No one from the Jackson family came after me.I refused to answer any questions.I then took out my phone and started looking for the number of the University of Quiles' Admissions Department."I'm sorry, I regret turning you down before. Is it too late for me to apply to go to the University of Quiles?"The person on the other end of the line was stunned at first, but quickly became overjoyed. "You're Laura Jackson? Back then, I tried my best to convince you to come to our university, but you insisted on going to an ordinary local university. Why did you suddenly change your mind? It's already past the application deadline, so technically speaking, you won't be able to enroll at our university anymore, but I'll talk to my superiors and see if there's any other way."I was overjoyed when I heard those words and quickly thanked the person on the other end of the line.Over the past couple of years, I had alway
