My mother sneered at me and said with disdain, "You really don’t know how to enjoy life, do you? You’re just destined for a life of hard work. A money-loser through and through!"
My father sighed dramatically, shaking his head. "If only you were half as capable as your sister, I wouldn’t still be breaking my back hauling bricks at the construction site!"
Julia strutted over with her phone, waving the screen in front of me like a trophy. "You’re so clueless, aren’t you? Mr. Kramer has already reached out to me. He wants to meet."
Her voice dripped with smugness as she continued, "He knows all about what I did for his son. He even sent me a ton of expensive supplements. You couldn’t afford these even if you worked every day of your miserable life!"
She leaned in closer, her tone oozing mockery. "There’s still time to get on my good side. You are my sister, after all. If I get the money, maybe I’ll toss you 20,000 dollars out of pity."
