Reborn as the Baby Sister Everyone Spoiled—and the One He Loved

Chapter 31 You Don't Get To Call Me That!

Alora couldn't hold back her frustration any longer. Her parents had already decided on Elaine. The polite pretenses between her and Elaine were gone. There was no reason to hold back anymore. So what if I'm adopted? Does that mean I deserve to be mistreated? It's not my fault I was switched at birth! Why does Elaine think she can take revenge on me now? "Ha ... " Elaine's cold laugh echoed in the air. Was the switch really just an accident? I almost forgot. Right now, the Curran family still has no idea that the switch wasn't an accident at all but a deliberate act. In her previous life, she had only learned the truth after marrying into the Wilsons. Her adoptive parents—that lazy couple—barely bothered raising her. But once she was married into the Wilsons, they went after Terry for alimony. Too ashamed to ask the Currans for money, they turned to Terry instead. Because of her, Terry reluctantly met their unreasonable demands. Time after time, they pushed further, getting greedier with every request. They clung to her and Terry like parasites, draining them dry. Elaine was furious and slammed the door in their faces. In their anger, they revealed that the switch of the two children had been intentional on their part. Alora is innocent in all this.But what about me? Am I not just as innocent? Elaine shot Alora a cold look before heading downstairs, not saying a word. "Hey, what's with that attitude?" Alora snapped, stomping her foot in frustration. Turning around, she found Jay standing there. Jay was leaning casually against the doorframe, arms crossed, his head slightly tilted. She had no idea how long he had been standing there or how much he had overheard. His face was expressionless, cold as ice. Alora quickly put on a pitiful face. "Jay, look at Elaine. How can she be so unreasonable?" Jay shifted his gaze from the stairs and shot Alora a cold look. He raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a faint mocking smile. "Unreasonable?" Alora nodded, her eyes wide with frustration, "Yes! She clearly doesn't like that room, but she's still insisting that I move out!" Jay scoffed, "That was her room to begin with. What's the issue with you moving out? You took her place, and now you're acting like the victim? Are you really that thick-headed?" Though Elaine could be annoying, she was still his sister. Jay would never let someone who didn't belong there push her around. Alora froze. Why is Jay siding with Elaine? The night before when Jay snapped at me, I assumed it was just because of Grandma's health scare. I figured I was just caught in the middle. But now, hearing him speak like this, it seems like he's actually supporting Elaine, his real sister. But I was the one who grew up with him for 20 years!Do bloodlines really matter that much? Jay took a step closer, hands in his pockets, towering over Alora with a smug look on his face. "Even if Elaine kicked you out of the Currans, it wouldn't be unreasonable. You've taken everything from her—the wealth, the love of her parents, even her place as Terry's fiancée ... " Alora felt herself step back, her back hitting the wall. She bit her lip, trying to hold herself together. "Now that she's back, you still refuse to leave, and you want to hold onto everything that was hers." Alora stayed silent, struggling to keep her composure. "You're shameless. You're more thick-skinned than a wall! Do you get it?" "Jay ... sob ... I didn't mean it ... sob ..." Jay's harsh words broke Alora, and she burst into tears. "Shut up! You don't get to call me that!" Jay looked at her with disgust, but there was no mercy in his eyes.
