My dad became even more furious. When I refused to admit anything, he grabbed a belt and beat me until there wasn't a spot on my body that wasn't bruised.
Finally, under Eva's instigation, he threw me out of the house during a heavy rainstorm.
I lay on the street for a day and a night until a passerby couldn't stand it anymore and took me to the hospital. I was diagnosed with severe pneumonia.
The hospital tried to contact my dad after some effort, but it was Eva who answered the call.
When she heard I was in the hospital, she said there was no money and told them to abandon treatment. She even secretly turned off my dad's phone.
Because of this, I missed the best time for treatment and eventually died.
A tide of hatred surged within me.
Once again, I could hear Eva's moans echoing in my ears.
I checked the time. Eva still had no intention of finishing.
So, I took out my phone and made a video call to my dad.
After calling three times, my dad finally answered, "I'm in a meeting. Why are you calling me on video?"
After my parents divorced, my dad was decent to me. But everything changed after he married Eva.
The saying goes, "With a stepmom comes a stepdad." It was entirely true.
In my past life, I didn't understand. I constantly fought with Eva. When she framed me, I always tried to argue back.
After my tragic death in that life, I was realized.
Fatherly love, the bond between father and daughter, it was all fake. It was disgusting.
Only I was important.
So, I pretended not to notice my dad's impatience. I held up my phone and acted like I had just walked in.
"Dad, Mr. Lewis just told me I've been admitted to Lunelle University!" I said.
As I spoke, I purposely pointed the camera toward the bedroom. The half-open door revealed two frantic figures inside.
"Admitted, huh? That's no big deal. Wait, Scarlett! Where are you? Move the camera to the left."
My dad's annoyed tone suddenly paused. He sounded suspicious as he instructed me.
I pretended to be confused.
"What is it, Dad? To the left is Eva's room. Isn't she sleeping?" I said.
While I spoke, I moved the camera over. I pushed the door open and aimed it directly at Eva and the man.
Eva's clothes were disheveled. The man had only managed to pull on a pair of pants.
They reacted quickly, jumping off the bed and pretending to do yoga on the floor.
