"I was planning to give her money to start a business after she graduates, but now she's pregnant with a poor guy's child and wants to keep the baby!"
My mother's familiar voice came through the phone. Although she was complaining, there was no trace of anger in her tone.
I suddenly snapped back to reality. Even with the underfloor heating on, I could still feel the chill from my past life washing over me.
As I didn't respond, my mother asked, "Cassie, are you listening?"
My thoughts drifted back to my previous life, where my mother had complained to me in the same way.
Back then, I went along with her complaints about my sister, but she immediately got upset.
"Cassie, as the older sister, even if your sister is in the wrong, you shouldn't criticize her. Besides, what's wrong with wanting to get married? It's better than you being an old maid!"
When I heard these words, I couldn't help but feel a little sad. When I was born, our family business took a nosedive and we struggled to make ends meet.
Later, things finally started to improve. A few years later, when my sister was born, our family business skyrocketed.
