The Late Heiress’ Memories Chapter 5
Roger, Sandra, and Caleb gathered themselves before watching the next scene. Bored, I lay on a nearby lounge chair.The memory jumped to Casey slapping me at the top of the stairs. Caleb, picking up on the commotion, ascended the steps.Casey rolled down the stairs on purpose.“Don’t blame Willow, Caleb. I can understand why she resents me. I stole her life, after all.“But it’s not like I have a choice, Caleb. If I could, I would take the abuse in the village for Willow.”As Casey wept inconsolably, Caleb helped her to her feet and then whipped his hand across the other side of my cheek. At least both sides of my cheeks were rosy now.Through this piece of memory, Caleb realized he was wrong about me. He staggered on his feet, his hand falling onto the table for support.“S-She never cleared the air…” Caleb murmured, feeling at a loss for words. It wasn’t as if I had a chance to defend myself. Caleb wouldn’t listen to me anyway.My subsequent memories revealed Casey tripping w

Sandra and Caleb weren’t the only ones with ghastly looks on their faces. Even Roger, who had always held himself high and mighty, was visibly shaken.“What is wrong with this machine? What the hell is this?“Did Willow bribe you to set Casey up?”I read the pity in the scientist’s eyes. What was there to feel sorry about? I assumed the next memory was related to the video. Still, I was curious about their reaction to its content.Without another word, the scientist switched the memory to my school days with Casey.Casey had convinced Roger and Sandra to enroll me in her school, claiming it was for my own good.In mere days, I started coming home late at night. I hesitated to speak every time Roger and Sandra asked about it.This piece of memory boosted their confidence, assuring them they were in the right. Roger even crossed his legs.“There’s nothing more to this. I assigned them a driver for the school run. Even the driver said she would be out until late.”A loud bang int

My family had to put a stop to the broadcast of my memories. I huddled in a corner, feeling numb about the whole situation, but they struggled to accept reality.Sandra teared up shakily, mumbling in disbelief. Roger gasped heavily, his fists clenched, while Caleb, wearing his heart on his sleeve, punched the table.“I can’t believe Casey is evil!“Where is she? I must ask her if this is real.”The scientist wiped away a tear. “This is the donor’s deepest and most personal memory. There’s one more piece of memory. Do you want to watch it?”“Play it.”Simmering in rage, the trio watched as the scene shifted to the village.That was my first encounter with Casey, which also led to her cruel assertion that no parent would ever love me.I was busy working in the field while she stood on the ridge, frowning at the landscape.My adoptive mother stood next to Casey with an ingratiating smile. I had assumed Casey was a relative visiting from the city at the time.As I was on my way h

Roger and Sandra transported my body back to the house, and my soul was forced to leave as well.Throughout the journey from the laboratory to the house, Sandra refused to loosen her grip on me.Roger called back the driver, who now found himself in my shoes. After enduring just two lashes, he confessed.Casey’s disappearance had been her own design, a ploy to manipulate Sandra and Roger into disowning me. She felt threatened by my return.Somewhere out there, Caleb was busy, while Sandra read stories to my corpse, and Roger forced Casey to reveal herself.The wealthy moved quickly. Soon, Casey was forced out of hiding. I watched with my hand propped under my chin, amused by the irony. If they had acted sooner, perhaps I wouldn’t have had to die.Casey had no idea that she was screwed. The plan was to appear after I was kicked out of the house, but she was robbed and harassed instead. Counting down the days, Casey prepared to return to the Carters’ residence. However, she was

“Drop the act, Willow, and tell us where Casey is now!” a voice boomed, and the next thing I knew, a bucket of ice water was dumped over my head.I watched myself from a distance in amusement, my head still covered in ice.It turned out I was the real heiress in the story of switched daughters. Today marked four months since I was reunited with my family, and sadly, it was also the day I died.My lack of response only made my biological brother, Caleb Carter, angrier.Taking control of my soul, I approached Caleb. It had been the first time that I had seen him up close.To be honest, he was hot and looked nothing like me.Caleb narrowed his eyes at my silence, standing there and unleashing a tirade of abuse.“Oh, quit playing dead, Willow! Say something! Do you think you can get away with it by keeping your mouth shut?“You’re a total jinx! I don’t know why Mom and Dad brought you home! Casey is such a sweet girl for standing up for you.“But you forced her out anyway!”Maybe

The basement door closed behind me promptly after I stepped down, and I shuddered for no reason at all.On second thought, I had nothing to fear now that I was dead. I glided toward the main entrance, determined to leave this nightmare of a place.To my dismay, I was blocked from leaving. In that moment, my numbed emotions seemed to stir back to life.I began to feel resentful and bitter, confused as to why my death couldn’t free me from this God-forsaken place.After 18 years of mistaken identity, I was found living among swine in a pigsty. A well-dressed woman in leather pumps approached me.The woman, her eyes wide with shock, drew close for a hug. However, the embrace was cut short when she stepped on a pile of pig manure.The village chief pulled me out of the squalor and tossed me a clean change of clothes. He then presented me to the beautiful woman, who turned out to be my mother.My father and brother stood next to my mother. I was told they were my family. The villager

I lay on the sofa as the trio froze in silence.The sofa felt soft to the touch. I never had the chance to sit on it.

My soul followed my body to the laboratory. Roger, Sandra, and Caleb caught up soon after. For legal reasons, the man in the lab coat took out a document and handed it to Roger.I drew closer for a look. It was a consent form for organ donation. I chuckled at the formality. Here I thought my family had no regard for the law.With a signature on the form, the man in the lab coat cracked my head open to remove my brain. Before I could get up close, my brain was dumped into a nearby apparatus.My family was given connectors. “Place this on your temple. It will sync with your brainwaves and allow you to experience the donor’s life from her viewpoint.”The trio eagerly attached the devices, and the machine worked its magic.I had lost interest by then. I had no desire to relive my past, but oddly enough, I could watch the scenes playing out in their minds.Their response when the secret was out about Casey’s true nature piqued my curiosity.I wondered if they would feel sorry or guil
