Page 2 of I endured ten years of cancer suffering on behalf of my parents

My body swayed, and the hunger and nausea from not having a drop of water all day overwhelmed me.

Gianna stood nearby, earnestly persuading me: "Jasmine, you've already established your filial daughter persona. You've heard enough praise for three Christmases. But why are you being so selfish, refusing to let Winona come back? You're only enduring some physical pain, but we truly lost Winona for three whole Christmases! Do you know how I've been getting through these years?"

I don't understand!

During the three Christmases of restored health, they no longer had to worry about their bodies giving out. Gianna danced every day and went shopping. Bennett took walks and became the most robust among all the old men. They could go wherever they wanted, while I had to give up the sports and hobbies I loved.

I thought I had sacrificed so much for this family, but in their mouths, it became selfishness.

Bennett's accusatory voice rang in my ears again: "I'm really sick of your half-dead appearance! Moping around all day with no vitality at all! If you could be as lively and cheerful as Winona, we wouldn't have suffered through these Christmases!"

He seemed to have been holding it in for a long time, letting out a long breath after speaking.

But Dad, I've taken on your stomach cancer and lung cancer. No matter how strong I am, I can't force a smile and act carefree!

Seeing my silence, Gianna frowned and couldn't help but shove me: "Are you going to agree or not? Are you mute?"

But she forgot that chemotherapy had already reduced me to skin and bones. With her light push, I fell heavily to the ground. Seeing me grimace in pain, their faces still showed only angry urgency.

In that moment, my heart turned completely cold.

I said: "Fine, as you wish."

The system issued its final prompt.

After unbinding, the cancers belonging to Bennett and Gianna on Jasmine will return to their original bodies. Please confirm again.

Bennett frowned and retorted: "What? The cancers have to go back to us? Jasmine is willing to keep them on her."

I quickly countered: "I'm not willing."

Actually, during these Christmases, I had regrets too. But their words today completely solidified my decision. I don't want to bear your fates anymore. I want to enjoy my own life!

I nervously watched the two of them, afraid they might change their minds.

Fortunately, Gianna didn't even glance at me, only pulling Bennett aside to whisper persuasively: "Jasmine had cancer for several Christmases and was fine, right? With modern medicine being so advanced, what's this little illness? We owe Winona too much. Can you bear to watch her drift around outside?"

Finally, the two made up their minds and chose to confirm.

This time, I actually detected a hint of mockery in the system's voice.

Unbinding successful. Corresponding symptoms will gradually appear within three days.

You are the first pair to unbind for this reason. Enjoy what follows!

In that instant, my body felt unprecedentedly light. My health had returned!

Bennett and Gianna exchanged glances, thinking of something that made them smile as they left the house.

I slowly stood up, watching their retreating figures with ice-cold eyes.

This time, you'll get a good taste of cancer's agony!
