Cindy tried to help me up. "I’ll take you to the hospital."
"Sister!" Matthew’s voice shook as he cried. "The ceremony is about to start. Are you leaving now?"
"This is just Joseph hurting himself. Do you honestly think I would beat my own brother like this?"
Cindny pushed my hand away.
"Joseph, you’re truly cruel. Just to accuse Matthew, you’d go as far as hurting yourself like this."
"Go to the hospital on your own. Don’t worry, our Rodriguez Family won’t abandon a cripple. We’ll get the best doctor to fix your leg."
I knew no words could change anything, so I clenched my teeth and stood up. "I just want to say a few things to you, then I’ll leave."
"Claire, from the beginning, being with me was only a bet between you and your sister. You never truly loved me, did you?"
"Yes."
Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably. I once believed I was the happiest person alive. I had parents and a sister who loved me and someone who cherished me deeply.
But it turned out everything was just a dream that broke so easily. I could have chosen to stay in this world forever, surrounded by my family. However, now, I have made up my mind to return. "One last question."
