At that time, she would like to see if Phyllis can still curse and shout like today. Not wanting to waste any more breath she carry her only backpack.She didn't take anything else in the bag except her ID and the laptop she bought herself. But Lan didn't forget to mock her.
"Uncle and aunt, Sierra didn't even take any luggage. Maybe there's something valuable hidden in her bag. You'd better check it out."
Hmmph Let’s see how she can still be arrogant after being searched!
This reminded Phyllis and she immediately said: "Lan is right! Open it and let's see if there's something in there!"
Yvonne quickly put on a pretentious tone and said, "Mom? This isn't necessary, is it? My sister's family is so poor. Even if she takes something from the Murray family, it won't affect us. Can't we just Forget it.?"
Phyllis said sarcastically,
"The things in her room were all bought by your father and me. How dare she use them to sustain her family? Her parents are both unemployed. How can she fill their financial burden with those little things?"As she spoke, Phyllis was about to search Sierra's's backpack.
Sierra, however, seemed to have anticipated Phyllis's despicable behavior. She opened her backpack and said, "There's nothing from your Murray family in my backpack. The ID is mine, as is the laptop and the clothes I'm wearing. I bought them all with the money I earned from my scholarship."
If she hadn't been supporting the family over the years and didn't want to give them any more money, she would have definitely flaunted her wealth in their faces but they don't deserve it.
Seeing that Sierra actually didn't take anything, Yvonne and Lan were disappointed. They didn't expect this girl to be so stubborn and arrogant. Seeing that the Murray family had nothing to say, she slung her backpack on her shoulder again and prepared to leave.But at this moment, a weak figure came down from upstairs:
"Sierra wait for me
The Murray family members turned around in surprise to see Darren, who had just finished the operation, came downstairs in a hurry. Seeing her precious son who had just undergone a successful operation, Phyllis quickly stepped forward to support him: "Hey! Darren, I told you to rest well. Why did you come downstairs?"
Darren has severe aplastic anemia. He recently found a mysterious doctor who performed a bone marrow transplant on him. Although the operation was successful, he's still fragile and needs to avoid stress, exertion and emotional distress, so they kept him from Sierra but he still defied their wishes. When Sierra saw her brother who had been sickly since childhood but had always protected her, warmth appeared in her cold heart and she couldn't help but stop for a moment.
At this moment, Darren glared at Phyllis and said, "If you hadn't insisted on having the butler watch over me, I wouldn't have to rush .”
The butler refused to let him go downstairs no matter what, so he had no choice but to send the butler away and hurried downstairs.Fortunately, Sierra hasn't left yet. Without further ado, Darren took out a card and handed it to Sierra.
"Ra ra, I heard from Dad that your biological parents don't have jobs, and your brothers don't seem to have any proper jobs either. Some are still in school. I'm worried you'll have no money when you go there. This is the money I've saved over the years. Take it for emergencies.”
Holding the card in her hand, Sierra felt warmth in her earth. It seems that in this family, only Darren is sincere to her. It was worth it that she spent so much time researching his condition and helping him with the surgery. Now that she is going, the one who she is most worried about is Darren.
Seeing her son giving money to Sierra, Phyllis immediately became anxious: "Silly son, what are you doing? You only have that one card, and there are at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in it! Why give it to her? She’s not even your biological sister!” Yvonne couldn't help but get anxious when she heard this, but she still pretended to be pitiful. "Brother is so nice and generous to Sierra, and he hasn't even said more than a few words to me in all the days I've been home."
Seeing that the Yvonne was being wronged, Lan immediately started to scold Darren. "Brother, you are too biased, aren't you? You are so cold to your own sister, but you are so concerned about that fake girl."
"You!" Darren was offended and immediately got angry.
Seeing Darren was angry, Sierra's eyes darkened and she picked up the cup of water and splashed it directly on Lan's face.
"Ouch! Sierra How dare you splash water on me!" Lan was the young master of the Chapman family after all. He had never suffered such humiliation in his life, so he roared in anger. But Sierra's eyes were icy and terrifying:
"Lan, this is the Murray family, who do you think you are? You are yelling at the young master of the Murray family here? Darren just had surgery and can't be emotional, watch your words."
Lan relies on the fact that the two families are old friends and often stays at the Murray family. Before, he did it to pester Sierra all day long. In recent days, he has relied on Yvonne to become even more unscrupulous in the Murray family. He even dared to speak nonsense to Darren. He is really overestimating his own abilities.
Lan knew that he had offended Darren, and when he saw that Jeffrey and his wife looked unhappy, he immediately calmed down.
Yvonne seized the opportunity to fan the flames of her parents: "Mom and Dad, even if it is to defend My brother, my sister is going too far. How can she splash water on others? It's so rude.”
Sierra didn't want to waste any more time talking to these people. She simply handed the card in her hand to Darren and said, "Darren, you still need to rest well. You should buy yourself some more supplements. You should keep this money for yourself."
"Sierra" Darren wanted to struggle, but his hand was held tightly by Sierra. She is a girl, but her hands are very strong and he couldn't break free. Sierra smiled and said to Darren sincerely:
"I appreciate your kindness, but don't worry, brother. I'm not short of money. But you, after I'm gone, you have to take good care of yourself."
