My Family Called Me Selfish For Going On Vacation Instead Of Babysitting. I Boarded The Plane Anyway

Jade saved every single day of her annual leave for one dream trip to Portugal. Nine months of planning, flights booked, Airbnb reserved, bags packed. Then the night before her flight, her brother called demanding she watch his three kids. When she said no, her entire family turned on her within an hour. Six people, one word: selfish. She turned off her phone and boarded the plane anyway. When she landed in Lisbon, she had forty-three missed calls and a family that had already written her off. But what they didn't know was that cutting Jade out was the worst mistake they ever made, especially when they came knocking for money.
