Reborn as the Baby Sister Everyone Spoiled—and the One He Loved
"I only have one sister, Elaine. Who do you think you are, claiming I'm your brother and trying to tie yourself to my family? Aren't you disgusted with yourself?" This woman ... she ruined Leonardo ... In the past, even when Jay would shoot her a nasty look, he always kept his cool, respecting their blood connection. After all, Leonardo was his brother, and Alora was his sister. They were family. But this woman wasn't his real sister. Who does she think she is, calling me Jay? Alora stayed silent. Jay's expression turned icy as he gave her a sharp warning. "From now on, call me Dr. Curran or Mr. Curran. Don't think you can call me anything else, imposter."He made sure to emphasize the last word, filled with scorn, as if mocking Alora for even considering herself worthy of being in his presence. Alora didn't speak. With that, Jay shot her one last disdainful glance before spinning around and heading downstairs. Alora stared at his retreating back, her teeth clenched. Why? Mom and Dad turned against me—now, even Jay? All because of Elaine? Have they all decided I'm no longer needed? Downstairs, Elaine was nestled between their parents, all of them deep in a cheerful conversation. Their faces were bright, their smiles warm, as if everything was perfectly harmonious. Jay stood at the top of the stairs, his fingers lightly gripping the white marble railing as he took in Elaine's expression—a flawless mix of charm and innocence. He couldn't deny, the girl was stunning. In fact, she was more beautiful than their mother had been at her age. She had inherited all the best traits from both of their parents. But sadly, when it came to love, her mind seemed to focus on one thing—Terry. She couldn't stop talking about him as if he were the only man who had ever existed. Jay sneered, shaking his head in annoyance, and began to walk down the stairs. Just then, he caught the tail end of their conversation. "Elaine, last night, your dad and I talked it over, and since you no longer want to marry Terry, we'll go to the Wilsons and call off the engagement." "Elaine, you really need to think this through. Once this decision is made, there's no turning back. We can even delay it; I don't want you to have regrets. "Dad, Mom, I've made up my mind. I want to break off the engagement! The sooner, the better!" Elaine's voice was soft but resolute. She couldn't bear being known as Terry's fiancée any longer. "Good morning, Dad, Mom," Jay greeted them casually as he came down the stairs. His eyes slowly met Elaine's, and for a brief moment, their gazes locked. Her eyes, sharp as ever, flickered toward him before she quickly dropped her gaze. Jay was speechless. She can't even greet me properly? I'm her brother!Shouldn't she at least say, "Good morning, Jay"? And I just defended her against that imposter, Alora! Yet she's treating me this way? Frustration surged inside him as he glared at Elaine and snapped, "What, have you lost your mind? Suddenly deciding to break off the engagement?" Is she doing this to make things easier for Alora, that fake daughter? Although Jay had found Elaine's constant chatter about Terry annoying, he couldn't deny that Terry was one of the best men their generation had to offer. "Jay! What are you talking about!" Rebecca shot him a sharp look. "Are you looking for trouble? How dare you speak to your sister like that!" Leon's tone immediately turned serious, clearly ready to step in if Jay didn't back down. Seeing his parents' protective stance, Jay flashed a grin, "Just kidding." Growing up, he and his brothers had taken plenty of punishment from their father. He definitely didn't want to relive those moments.
