Alex guiltily lowered his head to put the shoes
away, half complaining.
“Some guest must have left them here when
they came. The box looks so similar, I got it
mixed up.”
Jason, who swore he would never lie to me,
also covered for him.
“Yeah, you know how some guests like to be
comfortable…”
I didn’t know any guest who would ride in
their private car.
Especially after Sarah appeared, the
passenger seat became hers exclusively, her
passenger seal became ners exclusively, Ter
bare feet often resting on the cushion where
mine used to be.
But I didn’t care anymore.
My compliance made them uneasy.
“Emily, why do you seem unhappy? Are you
really not mad anymore?”
The next second, they became wary.
“If you have something to say, tell us, don’t
take it out on Sarah.”
I shook my head. “I just think I shouldn’t throw
tantrums anymore.”
They exchanged glances, surprised by my

Especially when their phones rang
simultaneously, they exchanged excited looks
and were about to leave.
I lowered my eyes. “Aren’t you giving me my
gift?”
They froze, the excitement on their faces
instantly turning into disgust as they threw
the box at my face.
“Don’t you understand priorities? We never
knew you were such a materialistic woman!”
Seeing me bleed, they panicked slightly, but
their footsteps didn’t stop.
“Take care of it yourself, there’s medicine in
the first–aid kit!”
Г
The door slammed shut.
The clock struck midnight, three days to go.
I softly spoke.
“Did you know? Today is actually my birthday.”
They had reached the point where they didn’t even remember my birthday.
It was fine though, at least I wouldn’t be the
subject of ridicule anymore.
I booked a flight for Sunday morning and
went to the cemetery in the drizzling rain.
When I was young, I insisted on going to the

were buried in a landslide.
I couldn’t accept that my loving parents died
because of me.
I grew up with guilt and pain. David comforted
me along the way.
“They loved you, that’s why they lifted you
above their heads when the landslide came.
They wanted you to be happy.”
Tears streamed down my face.
No one had ever said that before, they all
said I was the one who killed my parents.
Even the two Jason brothers avoided the
topic.
Г
I wanted to talk to my parents alone first, so
David waited for me outside the cemetery.
Unexpectedly, I saw Jason and Alex standing
in front of my parents‘ grave.
I was stunned. They hadn’t visited the grave
in three years, not since Sarah came along.
I unconsciously took a step forward.
But the next second, they started digging up
my parents‘ grave with shovels!
My eyes widened in horror as I rushed over,
blocking them.
“What are you doing! These are my parents!”
L
but quickly became self–righteous.
“Sarah’s pet spider died, and after consulting
a fortune teller, this spot was deemed
suitable. We’re finding a better place for your
parents.”
“But these are my parents!”
Tears streamed down my face as I cried out
in anguish.
Sarah appeared out of nowhere, pushing me,
trying to protect Alex.
“You crazy woman! Don’t you dare hurt Alex!”
In the chaos, the urn was knocked over.
The two brothers instinctively hugged Sarah,

a shard.
I lunged forward, hugging the urn, tears
falling from my eyes.
They had also received so much love from my
parents when they were young.
Now, for a spider, they were digging up my
parents‘ grave!
Sarah cried out in pain, but this time, the two
brothers didn’t immediately focus on her.
Seeing my distraught, tearful appearance,
Alex momentarily panicked.
Jason was the first to crouch down and hug
me, comforting me, “The dead can’t be

brought back to IITе, Emily…”
I raised my hand to slap him.
But Sarah screamed and jumped in front of
me, taking the blow, and falling to the ground.
“It’s okay, Jason, even if my face is ruined,
it’s okay, as long as Emily calms down…”
She knelt down, sobbing.
But I clearly held back when I hit her, it was
just a light graze!
In the next second, the brothers‘ concern for
me turned into resentment.
Alex pushed my head into the mud.

Jason pressed down on the back of my
knees, forcing me to kneel before the
overturned urn.
“You killed your parents, and now you want to
hurt Sarah, how can you be so vicious, how
can you face your parents!”
These words pierced my heart like needles.
Behind them, Sarah smiled at me.
She picked up the urn and smashed it on the
ground!
Jason gritted his teeth. “I’ll have someone
clean up your parents‘ ashes!”
“Right now, the most important thing is to
tame your temper!”
I screamed and tried to crawl forward, but
they dragged me away.
In my despair, David suddenly appeared at the
other exit.
My eyes lit up, and I cried out for help!
