910 But Celline had been too arrogant , overestimating her place in my parents hearts and in the end , her plan collapsed .

My parents launched a full investigation , tracking down the old nanny who had orchestrated everything .

They held a press conference , forcing her to publicly admit her wrongdoing .

Calling havalar pamainad alrniva anishing an if aha had avonnented into thin air A Fake Poverty that My Parent Build for Me с Celline , however , remained elusive vanishing as if she had evaporated into thin air .

D To me , all of this was nothing more than a story , something distant and detached .

I had no intention of rekindling my relationship with my parents .

After all , if they could discard me over a mere comment about my looks , who was to say they wouldnt find another reason to push me aside again in the future ? My parents continued visiting the college , trying to find out about me .

But because of the secrecy surrounding my research , the college had no information to give them .

Defeated , they returned home time and again , empty handed .

Three years passed .

The research agreement ended and I boarded a flight back to my home country .

Despite my employers attempts to make me stay offering lucrative contracts and enticing opportunities I refused .

The professor had always told me that my country lacked experts in my field .

And without the help of the professor and my college , I would have been lost three years ago .

Now , it was my turn to give back .

Upon landing , the professor was already waiting for me .

He picked me up and took me straight to the college for a speech , where I shared my experiences , the industrys future and its challenges , hoping to inspire new students .

I spoke with confidence , my words resonating through the hall .

The audience erupted in applause .

The speech was a success , drawing in students eager to pursue this path .

Just as the professor and I were preparing to leave for the research institute , my parents appeared at the college entrance .

They looked different from before more frail , their hair now streaked with gray .

Their faces were worn with exhaustion .

The professor had already briefed me about their situation .

Their business had declined sharply over the years , shrinking from a large enterprise to a struggling medium sized company .

Yet , despite their losses, they never gave up on searching for me .

Time had dulled my resentment .

I no longer felt anger toward them but I also felt no warmth .

Naomi , my dear ! Moms voice cracked as she stumbled forward , tears welling in her eyes .

Youve finally come home ! Ive missed you so much … She tripped , falling to the ground and Dad rushed to help her up .

Little Naomi Dads voice trembled .

For three years , weve reflected on everything .

We regret it all .

He looked at me , his eyes glistening .

The sight of his tears startled me .

Its been a long time , I said , offering a faint smile .

The words were simple , but they carried weight I had long since let go of my hatred .

Mom and Dad froze for a moment , then broke down in heavier sobs .

Perhaps , to them , this was harder to bear than my resentment .

Because the way I looked at them now was the way one might look at a stranger .

No joy , no sorrow .

Boom ! Boom ! Suddenly , a car came speeding toward me , its engine roaring like a beast ready to devour .

Sweetheart , watch out ! Before I could react , Dad lunged at me , shoving me out of the way .

A sickening thud echoed through the air .

I hit the ground hard , but my heart clenched as I saw Dad lying in the street , motionless .

Everything blurred as panic surged through me .

I rushed to his side , dialing emergency services with trembling fingers .

Moms cries pierced the air , raw and unrestrained .

Boom ! Boom ! The cars engine revved again .

But this time , the college security guards reacted swiftly , pulling the keys from the ignition and dragging the driver out of the vehicle it was Celline
