Chapter 9 - Begging for Mercy

A week later, I was sitting by Mia's incubator when a commotion broke out in the hallway.

I looked through the window and saw Chloe arguing with the hospital security guards.

She looked a mess, her hair unwashed and her expensive clothes wrinkled.

"I need to see my sister! I'm pregnant, I'm family!" she screamed.

I calmly walked out of the room and stood in front of her.

"You aren't family," I said coldly. "Family doesn't laugh when you're drowning."

Chloe burst into tears, dropping to her knees on the hospital floor.

"Please, they took the house, they took everything! I have no money for my baby!"

I looked down at her without a single ounce of pity.

"Maybe this will finally teach you how to share," I echoed the exact words she had said to me at the pool.

The color drained from her face.

I signaled to the security guards.

"Remove her from the premises. If she comes back, call the police."
