After doing all this, I felt great.
While Samson got swamped at the police station, I quickly packed up all my things at home and moved out.
Because I was guaranteed admission to MIT, the largest local real estate company rewarded me with 100,000 dollars in cash.
I spent 50,000 dollars to buy a condo that very day.
From now on, this place would be my home.
I never wanted to go back to the place I had lived in again.
It wasn’t until I left that I found that I had packed only one suitcase, and it was not even full.
Now that I had moved out, everything was easier.
No one would bother me anymore–by that, I meant Samson and Antonio, those scumbags.
I saved the rest of the money for my tuition and traveled around for a few days for relaxation.
After all, the years preparing for the SAT were exhausting.

He had lost a lot of weight and looked much more haggard.
His beard was unkempt, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Before I could make a sound, he pulled me into the utility room next door.
Grabbing me by the collar, he asked, his voice stern.
“Grace, where have you been these days? I’ve been worried sick.”

“How could you say this? Grace, I’m your brother. We’re related by blood. I’m worried about you; that’s why I’ve been looking for you.”
I sighed, “Is that so?
“Well then, I’m right here, safe and sound. Now I can go, right?”
With that, I broke away from his arm and was about to leave, but he pulled me back.
Noticing the hesitation on his face, I leaned back.

I sneered, “Seriously, Samson?”
He nodded earnestly.
I was furious.

He was a bit annoyed.
“Grace, you’ve already been admitted to MIT. But Vivian has lost everything. Can’t you help her?

I smiled bitterly, “Samson, really?
