Chapter 24 

It was Christmas when I booked my oneway ticket abroad

My tutor gently reminded me, We’ll leave in seven days

Grace. have you told your family about this? You won’t be able to get in touch with them for the next 20 years

Make your farewell memorable.” 

He had no idea that my family was busy spending time with another girl

I stood on the side of the street for a long time

Finally, I took out my phone and called Mason Parrish

We were bloodrelated siblings after all.. 

Though they no longer loved me, I still wanted to have one last family dinner with them

I tried again and again, but Mason wouldn’t pick up. In the end, he even turned his phone off

Running out of options, I could only try calling Ruben Parrish, my eldest brother

This time, after a painfully long wait, my call was answered

Worrying they would grow impatient, I subconsciously sped up my cadence

It’s Christmas today. Would you come home? Let’s have a family dinner.” 

The maid was on leave, so I added gingerly, I made lasagna, Lacey’s favorite.” 

Lacey Hobbs was an orphan they adopted

I believed if she came back, they would, too

Ruben replied, his tone cold and curt, You’re why Lacey’s in the hospital. And you expect us to spend Christmas with you?” 

His accusation confused me

Wasn’t Lacey on a trip with them before

How about I bring the turkey and lasagna to the office, and let’s have it there?I was almost begging

I had never acted so humble before

Since Lacey joined our family, I argued with Ruben and Mason a lot

But even after our worst fight, I was never so humble

It was because this might be the last Christmas we spent together

And I cherished it very much

Ruben and Mason said no more

The silence stretched until I heard Lacey’s gentle voice over the phone. I wanna try the turkey Grace made.” 

They finally added, Alright. Bring the food over.” 

I jumped at the offer. Okay. I’m on my way.”
