Chapter 1
My younger sister, Lily Moran, in her quest to marry into a wealthy family, was willing to sacrifice herself for the CEO.
The CEO's beloved, who was gravely ill, needed blood, liver, and eventually even a kidney. Lily donated all of these to her.
As an emergency doctor, I saved Lily countless times, but due to leaving scars from her injuries, she ended up killing me in a fit of rage.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day Lily met the CEO.
Excitedly, Lily announced to the whole family, "Mr. Zuniga asked for my contact information. He's interested in me."
This time, instead of advising her against it, I clapped and smiled, "That's great. You'll soon be marrying into a wealthy family."
...
While donating blood at the university blood drive, Lily was discovered to have a rare type of blood known as "panda blood."
The CEO of Zuniga Group, Cole Zuniga, chased after the blood drive to ask for her contact details.
Lily fell for Cole at first sight, believing that she was chosen by the CEO and that she was about to marry into a wealthy family.
Little did she know, Cole saw her only as a blood donor, to save his dying beloved.
Returning home excitedly, she announced loudly that she had been noticed by the CEO of Zuniga Group.
Our parents urged her to calm down, feeling that the situation wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Lily, however, dismissed their concerns. "Do you look down on me? Do you think I'm not worthy of Cole? I'm telling you. Mr. Zuniga came personally to ask for my contact information. If he wasn't interested, why would he have come himself?"
"He must be interested in me.
Without the support of our parents, she turned to me.
She asked, "Audra, do you also think I'm daydreaming?"
I remembered she had asked me the same question in my previous life.
I was an emergency doctor at the best hospital in the city, and Cole's beloved, Lauri Rivera, was admitted there.
Lauri suffered from a rare and incurable disease.
Her organs were gradually failing, and she needed regular blood transfusions to survive.
Her blood type was RH-negative, a rare blood type known as "panda blood".
Cole had exhausted all available panda blood but still couldn't save Lauri from dying.
He boldly used an alternative medical solution—organ transplants, targeting young women with panda blood.
It could be said that he was interested in Lily not as a person but in her organs.
Knowing Cole's plan, I subtly advised Lily that he likely had no romantic intentions toward her and warned her to be cautious of him.
Lily, however, turned pale and believed I was jealous of her good fortune, immersing herself in dreams of marrying into wealth.
She obeyed Cole's every command and rushed to the hospital at his first phone call.
From donating blood to giving her liver and eventually even a kidney for Lauri, she did it all.
As an emergency doctor, I saved Lily from the brink of death countless times.
When Cole and Lauri registered their marriage, my frenzied sister killed me with a knife.
She pointed to a small scar on her face and said, "It's because your stitching was so bad that I ended up with this scar, making me less attractive. That's why Cole chose Lauri."
The scar was from her fainting due to blood loss and hitting the ground, which I had stitched up while rescuing her.
The wound was long, and scarring was inevitable, but she blamed it on me for delaying her chance to marry into a wealthy family.
Recalling everything from my previous life, I smiled.
Seeing Lily's eager eyes, I said with a smile, "That's great. You're about to marry into a wealthy family."
Lily jumped up in excitement.
She proudly told our parents, "See? Audra supports me. My judgment wasn't wrong."
No matter what she did this time, I would support her.
Chapter 2
Our parents still couldn't rest easy and called me aside to give me a warning.
They said, "Audra, the hospital is close to Lily's school. You should visit her more often and make sure she doesn't do anything foolish."
In my previous life, my parents had left the responsibility of watching over Lily entirely to me.
Whenever Lily donated blood to Lauri, they would blame me.
They said, "If you had paid more attention to Lily, she wouldn't have been manipulated like this. You've failed her and our family."
I had been scolded so much back then that I truly believed it was my fault for not taking care of her properly.
But now, I knew that her life and death had nothing to do with me.
I wasn't going to be a fool and take the blame again.
I replied, "Mom and Dad, you should know how busy I am. I don't have time. You're both retired, with money and time on your hands. If you're so worried, why don't you rent a place near her university and keep an eye on her?"
My mom was momentarily speechless. "But renting a place costs money, and your dad and I are quite busy."
They were busy with fishing, bird-walking, and relaxing vacations.
I chuckled, "Then let her live on her own. She's an adult now, and you've raised her well. She should be able to handle her own affairs."
Seeing that I was unmoved, my mom relented.
She even gave Lily five thousand dollars to buy new clothes to meet Cole.
Chapter 3
Counting the days, Lily should have already started donating blood to Lauri.
One weekend evening, my mom called me in a panic.
She said, "Audra, Lily fainted at school. You need to call an ambulance right away."
It was always like this in my previous life—whenever Lily had an accident, my parents would call me first to solve the problem.
I was the one who paid for her hospitalization, follow-up medication, and even the ambulance.
They couldn't even be bothered to come to the hospital, treating me like a problem-solver, constantly calling to rush me.
I used to be naïve, thinking family shouldn't keep count.
Now, sipping my coffee, I said slowly, "Mom, I'm an emergency doctor, not an ambulance driver. How can I drive to save her?"
My mom was frantic. "You know you're an emergency doctor. Then hurry and go with the ambulance to the school to save Lily. What if something happens to her because you're late?"
I held up the phone to show the chaos of the emergency room.
I said, "Mom, it's not that I don't want to go, but you know how busy I am in the emergency room. The nurses are calling me for an urgent surgery. I have to go now."
My mom nearly lost her mind, shouting, "Wait! Audra, do you even have a conscience? Is Lily's life less important than those strangers in the hospital?"
I calmly advised her, "Mom, don't panic. Lily is getting along well with Mr. Zuniga. Maybe he'll even send a helicopter to rescue her, which would be faster than an ambulance."
My mom, furious, started cursing me and lamented how the family ended up with such an ungrateful child.
I hung up the phone and turned around to find several nurses pushing a stretcher into the emergency room.
They called out to me, "Dr. Moran, this patient, who was confused, mentioned you as her sister and insisted you treat her."
I walked out with my coffee and waved my hand. "Sorry, my shift is over. Please find the on-duty doctor."
Lily wasn't in serious trouble. She had just fainted from anemia.
In my previous life, I had noticed the needle marks on her arm and asked her what had happened.
She had refused to tell me, and I had desperately searched for clues to understand the truth.
She complained about me being a nuisance, insisting, "Can't you just leave me alone? My problems don't concern you. It's just a bit of blood donation. I'll recover by eating some meat."
Donating a bit of blood might not be a big deal, but being a regular blood donor for someone else was significant.
It was especially true with Lauri's unstable condition. If something went wrong, Cole would draw Lily's blood.
Lily wanted to impress Cole and would do whatever he asked, always available.
Frequent blood draws could have irreversible effects on her body's blood production system.
