Chapter 3
The hurtful words spoken by Marina reached my ears, and my heart felt like it was pricked by a
needle.
Because she didn’t have a husband, Marina was afraid of gossip and she harshly disciplined us.
Although they were both strict.
Marina treated me like a criminal, while she treated Lainey as if she were her own child.
I didn’t do my homework, Marina would tear up all my textbooks and throw them into the trash can.
This would have caused me to be mocked by my teacher and classmates the next day at school.
Lainey didn’t do her homework, so Marina just muttered a few words at her.
I broke a bowl, Marina would make me kneel in the freezing cold all night.
Lainey broke a bowl, and Marina just slapped her palms twice.
I always doubted that I was not Marina’s biological child, and even had a paternity test done after reaching adulthood.
The result showed that I was indeed Marina’s daughter.
In the previous life, after Lainey pushed me into the boiling water, I managed to hold my breath.
After Marina rushed over, she didn’t even look at me, but instead she was concerned about whether Lainey’s hand had been burned.
I asked her with the last bit of strength why she was biased.
Marina gave me a disdainful glance and said, “I am not biased, it’s just that you are narrow–minded, so you think I am biased. Lainey has never said that I am biased.”
Actually, I knew that the real reason was because Lainey looked better than me.
Marina often said that in this era, beauty was also a form of resource.
She firmly believed that Lainey could marry into a wealthy family and improve her life, so she placed all her bets on Lainey’s marriage.
Despite Marina’s strong reluctance, she ultimately did not force Lainey to go on a blind date.
She was unwilling for this good opportunity to go to someone else’s home, so she arranged for me to be engaged to Brent.
Chapter 3
On the way, she kept reminding me, “In front of Brent, you must not mention your past relationships, Your unattractive appearance has already deducted points, and if you mention that you have been involved with multiple people, he definitely won’t be interested in you.”
Sometimes I doubted that Marina was blind,
Lainey stayed out all night and she also thought that the other person was being a good girl outside. I came home on time every day and informed her when I went out, but she still thought I was being promiscuous.
Luckily, Brent didn’t mind my appearance.
In the past life, due to his affair with Lainey, I didn’t have a good impression of Brent.
After chatting with him this time, I realized that Brent’s character was indeed good.
Brent was polite and knowledgeable.
As Marina said, his only requirement for a partner was to be pure and virtuous.
The reason for this requirement is because Brent comes from a wealthy family, and he himself has such good conditions that he has many women throwing themselves at him. Even so, he remains a virgin.
Brent had high expectations for himself, and he had no problem accepting the same expectations from his partner.
We got along very well.
Afterwards, we went on a few dates and our feelings for each other seemed to be compatible.
Even after our last date, I was thinking that perhaps the heavens had reincarnated me not for the purpose of seeking revenge, but to set things right and marry Brent.
There was a moment when I thought it would be nice to marry Brent.
But I didn’t expect that, after Brent agreed to get engaged with me.
Lainey, however, broke up with Freddy.
That day, when she saw Brent after coming home, she called Marina into the room in the evening. The next day, Marina told me, “You broke up with Brent, Lainey wants to be with him.”
This sentence hit me like a ton of bricks, and I was stunned for a few seconds. “Does Lainey have a sickness? Does she specifically enjoy stealing other people’s boyfriends? She took that trash Freddy
Chapter 3
when she wanted to, and now that Brent and I are about to get engaged, why does she still want to steal him? Is she addicted to meddling in other people’s relationships?”
As soon as the words fell, Marina slapped me.
“Lainey was your sister, why did you speak so rudely? Brent was originally someone I wanted to introduce to Lainey, but you took away what belonged to her.”
This slap made me feel a burning pain, and at the same time, it also erased the last bit of love I had for Marina.
I couldn’t bear it anymore. “Even so, now Brent is my boyfriend, if you have the ability, make him like Lainey.”
After roaring out these words, I couldn’t stay at home any longer.
I ran out of the door with a bag in my hand.
I knew very well that if Lainey wanted Brent, Marina would definitely arrange it.
But I had confidence in Brent, he wasn’t the kind of man like Freddy.
I stayed outside for a day, and today’s events and the events before seemed to replay in my mind.
In the previous life and in this life, I have felt extremely wronged.
I thought that after getting engaged to Brent, I would move out.
I just didn’t expect that, several hours later, I still hadn’t returned home.
Brent called.
He said, “Tessa, let’s break up.”
My voice trembled with pain, “Why? Is it because of Lainey?”
There was silence for a while on the other side, and Brent didn’t hide it, “Tessa, you are a smart person, you should know that someone like me, from the upper class, needs a beautiful woman to uphold my reputation. You and Lainey have the exact same qualities, and I am definitely going to choose the outstanding one.”
“Sorry, I will give you some compensation, but I hope you won’t bother me, and we can still be friends when we meet in the future.”
Dogshit friend.
Chapter 3
I hung up the phone and smashed the mobile phone into pieces.
After taking a few deep breaths, tears couldn’t be hidden any longer and they fell down with a
splash.
I took out my phone, ready to delete the photos I took with Brent during this time.
After flipping through a few pages, I widened my eyes.
A few minutes later, all my dissatisfaction was cured by the photo album.
Since everyone bullied me, I will bully them back one by one.
