My Family Who Abandoned Me Begged Me to Come BackChapter 1
At the dinner party, Jasmin, the adopted daughter of the Brooks family, pushed the heiress of the Wilson family down the stairs. Furious, the Wilson family demanded an explanation.
Gripping Sheena’s hands tightly, Amanda pleaded, her voice trembling, "Jasmin didn’t mean it. She’s terrified right now, crying so hard that her eyes are red."
Before Sheena could process her words, her mother added, "Sheena, since you’re Jasmin’s sister, you should go to the Wilson family and take her punishment for her."
Stephen, Sheena’s twin brother, stormed into the kitchen just as their mother finished speaking. Despite being her blood relative, his words were devoid of compassion.
"Exactly. The Wilson family is infamous for their cruelty. Dad and I practically begged on our knees, but they wouldn’t relent. They’ve only given us five days to hand someone over. If Jasmin goes, who knows what they’ll do to her? She wouldn’t survive!"
Even Sheena's childhood sweetheart and fiancé urged her, "If you’re willing to take the punishment for Jasmin, I’ll fulfill our engagement and marry you immediately!"
Left with no choice, Sheena went to the Wilson family as they wished. But they soon came crying, begging her to return.

Back at Brooks mansion, chaos ensued.
In the kitchen, Sheena was meticulously preparing the family’s breakfast for the next day. She was carefully whipping cream when her mother burst in, her eyes red and swollen from crying.
Gripping Sheena’s hands tightly, Amanda pleaded, her voice trembling, "Jasmin didn’t mean it. She’s terrified right now, crying so hard that her eyes are red."
Before Sheena could process her words, her mother added, "Sheena, since you’re Jasmin’s sister, you should go to the Wilson family and take her punishment for her."
Startled, Sheena froze, her hands trembling. The bowl of cream slipped from her grasp, crashing to the floor in a splatter of white.
A maid nearby smirked at the unfolding scene, her eyes glinting with schadenfreude.
Everyone in their elite social circle knew the Wilson family’s reputation. After returning from overseas, they had swiftly risen to prominence, wielding immense power in business. For Jasmin to harm their heiress at a public event, it was akin to signing her death warrant.
