She took a deep breath, and when she looked up again, she had regained the pride that Cherysh Jordan should have. âYou saw Rebeccaâs condition too. She suffers from a rare blood disease, and there arenât many others with her condition worldwide. The doctor and I donât have a solution, so we can only keep paying for her blood transfusion surgeries. Whatâs even more frustrating is that not only does she need surgery every once in a while, but she also has to spend a lot of money on imported medicine. Rebecca was diagnosed with the disease during my senior year of high school, and to treat her, our family spent all of our savings, even selling our house. If it werenât for the fact that I had already paid that semesterâs tuition, I might have dropped out of school to work and make money alreadyâ¦â
Cherysh closed her eyes, and continued, âLater, you also needed money, so we both decided to work part-time together. Iâve always considered you my best friend, and I never thought I would betray you. But then one nightâ¦my parents had a car accident because they were too tired and driving fatigued. Both of them died in the crash. Because they violated traffic rules, they had to bear all the responsibility themselves, and there was no compensation at all. At that time, I was informed by the doctor that I had to arrange another blood transfusion surgery for Rebecca, otherwise she would be in danger of losing her lifeâ¦â
Enna listened quietly.
Suddenly, Cherysh opened her eyes and looked at Enna, her eyes filled with pain, âEnna, if a lifesaving straw appeared in front of you, what would you do if you were in my shoes? Hold on or let go?â
âWhat are you trying to say?â
Who was that lifesaving straw?
Cherysh clenched her lips and stared into Ennaâs eyes, âJasmine found me and told me that if I helped her with something, she would give me 15 thousand dollars. The 15 thousand dollars combined with the money my parents had saved before they died would be just enough for Rebeccaâs surgery.â
âAre you saying that five years ago Jasmine gave you the money toâ¦drug me?â Enna stood up abruptly, âImpossible!â
Jasmine was even a year younger than her.
How could a young girl be so vicious at that time?
Cherysh scoffed, her eyes full of contempt, âWhy would I lie to you? Everything I said is true. I had already done it and taken her money, so I didnât plan on revealing this. But last timeâ¦â
She paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued, âEnna, no matter who you stepped forward for, Iâm grateful. Thereâs no need for me to lie to you. It was Jasmine who gave me the 15 thousand dollars to drug you and send you to Boss Tysonâs bed.â
Boss Tyson⦠An image of a man in his fifties or sixties with half his hair gone appeared in Ennaâs mind.
Her brain was a mess, struggling to digest this information.
If Jasmine and Cherysh had sent her to Boss Tysonâs bed, how had she ended up with Baron Lawrence?
âWhen I was at the end of my rope, I chose to hold on to that straw. Iâve already lost two of my closest relatives; I couldnât lose Rebecca. I chose my sister over my best friend. I donât think I did anything wrong, but Iâm still sorry.â
Enna came back to her senses after the shock, looking at Cherysh with complex emotions, finally understanding what had happened back then. With a dry throat, she asked, âSo at that time, you sought out William because you had already decidedâ¦.to sacrifice everything for Rebecca? Including your body and dignity?
