When Kindness Kills Chapter 8
But it didn't take long before Dad's good days came to an end. It wasn't just him—Mom and Alice were having a tough time, too, and even Grandma seemed worried.Alice came over to our house, bawling her eyes out and begging us to take her in. "Dad secretly gave my organ to that patient instead. The patient seemed fine when he left the hospital, but two days later, he had a rejection at home and died."His family lost it and stabbed Dad's hand with a knife. It went straight through the bone, and now he can't do surgery anymore."She broke down again, saying, "Mom's in jail now. She and Dad agreed to mortgage the house to help this other family, but that family hasn't paid them back. Now she's locked up."I figured Grandma would either lose it or start crying when she heard what Alice said. But instead, she just looked at me with concern and asked, "Zoe, is this going to affect you?"I shook my head and smiled. The worst it could do was mess with my civil service exam, but I'd alread

Not long after, Alice showed up by herself. She looked like a wreck, her hair all messed up. That smile she used to wear was gone, replaced by a look of bitterness."Go back to your place!" she snapped.I snorted. "I am at my place.""You did this on purpose! You made me want to be their kid just so I could suffer with them!""You're the one desperate to make anyone your parents. What does that have to do with me?" I shrugged.She was seething. "They gave away my toys, let someone else crash in my room, and made me take care of their patients!"They don't care about me at all. Instead, they're all focused on some other kid who needs a place in the school district. They even took out a mortgage on the house to lend their family money!"She screamed, losing it. "They're crazy! They've totally lost it!"I couldn't help but laugh. I wasn't sure if Mom and Dad had actually lost it, but Alice definitely had. I pulled out my phone and called them to come pick Alice up."If it weren't

Helena was right. When the practice exam scores came in, mine turned out better than I expected.Things calmed down after that. Once in a while, Alice would show up at my classroom door, trying to get attention. As soon as I figured it out, I let my homeroom teacher know, and she made her leave.It was so quiet that I didn't even realize until one afternoon after school, when I was heading out to grab some groceries, that Mom and Dad hadn't brought Alice a meal in forever.…The day the SATs were over, my classmates and I went out to celebrate until a little late.When I finally got home, I saw Mom, Dad, and Alice standing at the door, staring at the sign I'd put up saying they and the dogs weren't allowed inside. Their faces were all red from anger.In the end, Grandma opened the door so they wouldn't keep bothering the neighbors. As soon as Alice walked in, she pulled out a thank-you certificate and started looking for the best place to hang it.I took a quick glance at it. It

Grandma just got out of the hospital. Helena Rivers, the caregiver, and I had just gotten her settled at home when Mom and Dad showed up, with Alice tagging along.Grandma was sitting on the couch, watching them rush around the kitchen, acting like the good kids doing their best for their mother.Dad's excuse was, "Mom's out of the hospital, so we're having a family dinner as a little celebration."Grandma slammed her book onto the floor. "Who says we're family?"Dad gave Alice a little push. "Why don't you hang out with Alice for a bit? Susan and I will handle dinner."They went into the kitchen. Even when Helena offered to cook for Grandma, Dad waved her off, saying he had it covered.Alice sat beside Grandma, but Grandma wouldn't even glance at her. She held onto my hand and kept her eyes on the TV.Half an hour later, dinner was ready. It was a huge spread.Alice couldn't stop raving about it. "Wow, Mom, Dad, this looks amazing—guess we're lucky Grandma just got out of the

I dropped everything and rushed to the hospital, calling Dad nonstop the whole way, but he didn't answer.Right then, Dr. Lander called to tell me Dad had taken some relatives to visit Grandma and that I should hurry.My stomach dropped, and sure enough, it was exactly what I feared. Those "relatives" he mentioned were actually real estate agents."Mom, just sign the contract. Alice still needs money for her surgery. We have to help her!"I stormed into the ward and overheard that. I grabbed the contract and skimmed through it. It was for a 1,300-square-foot house in a school district, priced at 600 thousand dollars.My blood was boiling. I tore that contract up on the spot.Then, I pointed at Dad and yelled, "Are you serious, lying to Grandma? If you sell her place, where are we supposed to go?"Dad was pissed. "What's the big deal? You two can just move in with us when it's done!"Grandma, who'd been barely awake, seemed to wake up at those words. She opened her cloudy eyes a

I pushed past Mom and ran downstairs, only to run straight into Dad, who was standing outside Grandma's ward. He was talking to her doctor."Dr. Lander, you're seriously just going to stand by and watch a kid suffer?"I heard what Dad asked, but I had no clue what he meant.Dr. Lander was the same one who promised he'd do whatever it took to get Grandma's surgery moved up. When he saw me, he motioned me over, looking worried."You're here, Zoe. Your dad said you're okay with your grandma donating blood?" he asked.Asking someone over 80 to donate blood? No way I was going along with that.Dr. Lander explained everything to me. Alice's blood type matched Grandma's, so Mom and Dad wanted Grandma to donate blood to her.I was fuming. I shoved Dad aside, pointed at them, and shouted, "I'll never go along with this! If you even think about touching Grandma, I'll jump off this building to show everyone how shameless you all are!"Dad shot me a look of disgust. "How can you say someth

I blocked out the gossip and headed straight downstairs to Grandma's ward.She was getting up there in age, dealing with heart problems, a stroke, and a ton of other health issues. Not long ago, she fell at home and broke her pelvis, so she ended up back in the hospital.Grandma's face lit up when she saw me walk in with her medications. She asked right away, "Are your mom and dad done with work? I miss them."I felt a lump in my throat and could only tell her they were tied up with work. She looked down, her face falling with disappointment.I knew my excuse didn't sound convincing. It was just one floor away, but neither of them had come by since Grandma was admitted.Grandma's broken pelvis needed surgery, and the longer they delayed it, the worse she felt—especially at night when even getting out of bed was a major struggle.I asked Mom and Dad if there was anything they could do to help.Dad got all high and mighty and said, "Your grandma has to wait her turn for surgery.

When Kindness Kills Chapter 1
Mom and Dad were the nicest doctors at the hospital—way nicer to their patients than they ever were to me.When they talked about adopting Alice Reed, a patient with a heart condition, I didn't hesitate to agree."She's your real daughter now," I said.Alice was treated by Mom and Dad in my past life. They absolutely adored her, spending my living expenses on fruit for her and even tutoring her every night.Alice was even willing to risk her health just to win over Mom and Dad. She threatened not to go through with surgery if I tried to stop her from being adopted.I fought and argued, but all I got was a lecture from Mom and Dad. They looked at me like I was the biggest letdown, asking, "How did we end up with a daughter as thoughtless as you?"Alice's health got a lot worse after she delayed her surgery. I became the scapegoat—everyone blamed me for her decline.Mom and Dad made me kneel by her hospital bed and beg for forgiveness. They even took my tuition money and spent it
