My Sister Framed Me for Bullying, But Her Boyfriend Revealed the TruthChapter 1

It had been less than a year since my parents took me in, but already, my adopted sister, Eliana, had tried to cut her wrists seven times.

The notes she left, written in streaks of blood, chilled me to the bone, each one echoing the same frantic plea. “Please let me go, sister!”

When Eliana Laurier was safe again, our family’s tolerance reached its limit.

They took me to court, certain in their belief that my actions had driven her to despair, accusing me of bullying her to the brink.

My eighteenth birthday was meant to be a day of celebration, yet there I was, under the merciless gaze of a public trial.

But they all missed the real story, that I had been the one tormented from the start.

I had barely left the recycling station when my phone chimed, and Mason Laurier’s voice came through the line.

“Saige, I need you home right now!” Mason’s tone was sharp, pressing me to hurry.

His tone was as cold as stone, lacking the warmth a father’s voice should hold. But I'd grown numb to it long ago.
