Nameless
On the day my parents file for bankruptcy, my adopted brother and fake heir, Oliver Bilson, is also diagnosed with leukemia.
To earn enough money to pay his medical bills, I brave the snow and winds and continue working even on New Year's Eve.
When I hand over the food delivery to the scion, Charlie Jetton, he suddenly knocks the cake over.
"Why weren't you more careful when making the delivery?" he demands. "Don't you know that Mr. Bilson spent a million dollars to specifically order this cake for Olly?"
I'm about to make a retort when I hear three voices that I'm intimately familiar with coming from within the warm villa.
"It's okay. It's the thought that counts, Mom and Dad."
The voice belongs to none other than Oliver!
Dad, who claims that our family has gone bankrupt and is saddled with a mountain of debt, proudly says, "You're so mature, Olly. I'm going to give you an island to reward you!"
Mom, who has always been frugal, gently adds, "My one and only, precious son is so understanding. I'll give you my golf club in Masonila, so don't be angry, alright?"
My phone chimes just as the cake lands next to my feet, informing me that I have received a bad review.
Later, I cut ties with them and leave with my advisor, Richard Dyer.
However, when Mom and Dad find out that I'm leaving, they fall to their knees and frantically beg me to stay as if they have completely lost their minds.
