Brothers want me back novel

Chapter 3 Tracy couldnt believe it .

Elaine is really going to leave and go back to that godforsaken countryside ? No way , she thought .

This has to be another one of her tantrums , a cheap trick to get everyones attention , like always .

In the past , every argument between Elaine and Bianca ended with Elaine threatening .

Fine .

Ill just go back 10 the countryside ! And every time , it was all talk .

Shed sulk , cry , and eventually swallow her pride , sticking around like nothing had happened .

The idea of actually leaving ? Never .

So this time , everyone just shrugged it off , smirking to themselves .

Same old Elaine , they thought .

Shes bluffing again .

What they didnt realize was that this wasnt the same Elaine anymore .

The weak , desperate girl they remembered was gone .

Even Shawn didnt see it .

He assumed it was just another rry for attention .

punks , even gotten into After all , Elaine had a track record .

When she first came to the Yeats family , shed worn heavy makeup , hung out with street p fights .

To Shawn , she was like a kid throwing a tantrum for candy .

As long as she didnt step on Biancas toes , he didnt care .

Hed even play the kind older brother when it suited him .

Well , if thats what you want , theres nothing more I can say Shawns voice dripped with false sympathy : Just make sure you dont come crawling back later , saying I was too harsh Elaines eyes flashed with cold amusement .

She knew Shawns g stabbing someone in the back .

It was pathetic , But honestly , she didnt care anymore game all too well .

He always managed to come off as the reasonable one , even while Her calmness threw him off .

Something about her felt different .

Elaine , stop being so damn stubbom .

Robert snapped , his brows furrowed .

Stubborn ? Elaine arched a brow , her tone sharp and cold Werent you the one who gave me a choice? Now that Ive made it to leave youre calling me stubborn ? Do they really think the threat of sending me back to the countryside would scare me ? That Id beg them to let me stay ? Pathetic , she thought .

They didnt realize that the moment she decided to walk away , none of them mattered anymore .

Leaving wasnt punishment it was freedom .

Is apologizing Bianca so hard for your Roberts voice rose , his anger barely contained .

Dont think cutting your wrists will get you out of this ! If it werent for the wouldnt have fallen into the water ! Her lungs are weak as it is ! you , God , how did I end up with a daughter as cruel as you ? I shouldve strangled you the day you were born ? Youve been in this house for years , and I thought youd finally grown up .

But no youre still the same selfish brat .

Tracy Cash snapped , her anger fueled by the thought of Biancas frailty .

It all started when Elaine and Bianca were standing by the pool Bianca slipped and fell in , and of course .

Elaine was the obvious scapegoat .

Shawn , playing the self righteous older brother , had given her two options : apologize and accept punishment , or pack her bags and leave for the countryside .

Back then , Elaine had no idea what really happened .

But none of that mattered .

Theyd already decided she was guilty .

No one listened to her protests .

No one cared about her side of the story .

She was branded a liar , a troublemaker , a bad seed .

Desperate to prove her innocence , she ran herself ragged , searching for witnesses , evidence anything But it was pointless .

Biancas fall remained a mystery , and in the end , Elaine had no choice but to apologize and take the blame .

Now , she could see how ridiculous it all was .

Why did I waste so much time trying to prove my innocence ? They were the ones accusing her .

They shouldve been the ones to bring proof .

But no , shed been too desperate for their approval , too bend over backward for them .

What a joke .

Download Chapter 3 Yes , her lungs are weak .

Elaine said coolly , her voice cutting like a blade .

Shes been pampered her whole life , hasnt she ? Always given the best She so much as sneezes , and you all act like the worlds ending And me ? Back in the countryside , I was hauling buckets of water in the dead of winter .

1 coughed until my chest burned , and you know what I got ? Maybe a pill , if I was lucky .

Tell me , where was my sympathy ? My concerni Oh , and as for you saying you shouldve strangled me at birth Her lips curved into a mocking smile .

Honestly , Id have preferred it .

If youd done that , I wouldnt have grown up in a rat infested shack , eating spoiled food , wearing rags , and freezing my fingers to the bone .

Sound familiar ! And lets not forget Bianca .

Without me , your precious princess wouldnt have had her designer dresses , her fancy room her elite education .

Would she still be the perfect , angelic daughter you all worship ? Isnt that ironic ? Elaine leaned back , her voice turning colder .

Do any of you even know what its like to eat spoiled food ? To sleep in a room crawling with rats ? To wake up with frostbite because theres no heat ? No.

You dont .

Even your damn dog eats better than I ever did .

So tell me what gives any of you the right to judge me ! For the first time , Elaine laid everything bare , her voice unrelenting and sharp .

Her words landed like punches , leaving Robert and Tracy stunned .

Elaine used to keep quiet not because she didnt have anything to say , but because she didnt want to upset her parents or make them feel guilty .

And what did she get for it ? Contempt and being taken for granted .

They treated her understanding like it was owed to them But now , she couldnt care less .

Fear was a thing of the past.

She wanted them to feel the same disgust shed swallowed for years .

If Bianca hadnt stolen the life that was supposed to be hers , none of this wouldve happened ; The hospital room felt suffocating .

Shawn broke the silence , his tone half confused , half condescending Why bring this up now ? You trying to make us feel guilty or something ? Guilty ? Elaine didnt even bother to react .

Shawn pressed on , completely missing the storm in her silence .

Look , Elaine , if youd just drop the attitude , apologize to Bianca , and try to get along … wed all forgive you Hell , wed even welcome you back .

Dont bother .

Her voice was sharp and cold .

I see no point in getting along with Banca .

Or with any of you Tracy Cash froze , her mind racing What did Elaine mean by that ? There was no anger , no childish canturn in her voice .

It sounded final She tried to convince herself this was just Elaine being dramatic , that shed never actually leave .

But Elaines tone left no room for doubt , She wasnt playing their game anymore .

Shawns idea of peaceful coexistence was nothing more than a dermand for her to suck it up and grovel .

That chapter of her life was over Without waiting for a response , Elaine stood , grabbed the empty IV bottle , and strode out Excuse me , nurse , she called out calmly , almost casually .

Tm done here .

Can you get me another bag ? The room had a call button , but she wasnt going to use it .

She didnt want to stay in that room another second .

This was it .

The line was drawn , and she wasnt looking back .

From now on , they were nothing to her .

Absolutely nothing .
