“She’s so young, with her bright future ahead of her; it shouldn’t have to be this way!”
My fathe nd mother both fell to their knees.
This was the greatness of parental love–they were willing to take the blame for a murderer, even when the victim was their other daughter.
Their pitiful pleas as they knelt on the ground pierced my heart. I controlled my emotions, forcing myself not to dwell on these thoughts.
Jennifer was detained, and I spent a long time at the police station.
During that period, my father and mother

visited Jennifer.
“Dad, Mom, I miss you so much!”
Although they couldn’t embrace me, their tear–filled azes met, merging into a profound longing.
“I know. I will definitely get you out of here, even if you accidentally harmed Serena; it
doesn’t matter.”
“She is my daughter; I gave her life. You just took it away for me.”
Listening to the three of them speak, my feelings remained as calm as a still lake, without a ripple of emotion.
As I watched my father and mother nearly

exhaust themselves trying to secure a lighter sentence for Jennifer, I noticed their once–dark hair had turned completely white, and their faces bore the marks of weariness.
Before the lav 10 amount of pleading was of any use; the law showed no mercy.
Jennifer was sentenced to death, while Tom would spend the first half of his life in prison.
I heard that my father, unable to bear the blow, suffered a heart attack and passed away, while my mother went mad and was sent to a mental
institution.
It was my mother’s nephew who arranged for her to be admitted; he was the only survivor of the tragic bus accident that had claimed so many lives, coincidentally occurring around the

time Jennifer was born.
From then on, Jennifer was regarded by my mother as a lucky child, showered with all her
love and attention.
I didn’t know if it was because Jennifer, who had bound me, had left, but I found myself standing before a grave marked with my name–Serena.
This tombstone must have been set up by the villagers, who were always eager to help.
“Jennifer was sentenced to death, and I came to
see you.”
“I’m so sorry that my actions caused Jennifer to resent you and ultimately harm you.”
Matt placed a bouquet of flowers at my

tombstone, rambling about the stories of our acquaintance.
I had guessed that when we were at Matt’s grandmother’s house.
He expressed his regret for ever having liked
Jennifer.
Who he liked didn’t matter to me; I was grateful for his efforts to clear my name.
I cherished the blessing he offered, wishing that
in
my next life, as he said, I would be reborn into a happy and loving family.

Book 4 My Mom Hates Me But Loves My Dad’s Illegitimate Son

My mother had hated me for over twenty years.
Driven by obsession, she even went so far as to adopt a son–my brother.
On the day of the welcome dinner for my brother returning from studying abroad, my mother called me several times, but I didn’t
answer. She vented her rage, seemingly using every cruel word imaginable against me.
My brother angrily exclaimed, “I don’t have a sister like her.”
My father’s lips tightened as he scoffed, “I’ve seen through her from the start; she’s nothing but an ungrateful girl.”
But they didn’t know that I was already dead.

My mother would never know that the adopted brother was actually my father’s illegitimate
son.
