In the past, Gloria would have rushed back in a rage to tear Slyvia apart without caring about anything else.

That time she just put the name Slyvia into the blacklist with an expressionless face.

After Gloria woke up, she found out that after she became a vegetable, her parents fell into great grief. In order to cheer them up, Manuel found Slyvia, who looked like her, to comfort them.

Slyvia was sweet-talking and good at coaxing people and soon won their favor.

Gloria was also very grateful to Slyvia. When she learned that her parents had adopted Slyvia as their daughter, she was very happy that she had a new sister.

But Gloria soon discovered that things were not as she had imagined and Slyvia replaced her as the center of attention.

Slyvia liked her room, so her parents asked Gloria to give the room to the other party.

When her parents bought her a necklace, she should give it to Sylvia since her adopted sister said it was beautiful.

In summary, she should have passed everything she had for Sylvia. Even her fiancé Manuel's gaze always lingered on Sylvia for a long time with doting.

He stood her up on her birthday for Slyvia, left her alone on the top of the mountain in the middle of the night for Slyvia and gave up the grand wedding he had promised her for Slyvia.

And Slyvia, that seemingly innocent sister, was actually very scheming.

Since she woke up, Slyvia had repeatedly tried to alienate the relationship between her and her parents' fiancé.

The other party was very skilled and Gloria was no match for her. After only two years, her parents became estranged from Gloria and Manuel repeatedly embarrassed her because of Slyvia.

Gloria had argued and quarreled before, but it only pushed them further and further away.

Later she realized that the reason why Slyvia was able to succeed again and again was that those people who were once closest to her no longer cared about her.

Love would not disappear, it would only shift. Gloria did not believe it before, but then she did.

Just like that moment, even if she showed these chat records in front of everyone, her parents and Manuel would still believe that she had fabricated them to frame Slyvia.

In the end, she was the only one who suffered.

Gloria put down her phone and sat on the swing. There was no place for her in this house anymore. Even if Slyvia did not drive her away, she would leave.

Suddenly, a bloody thing was thrown at her from the side. Gloria was startled and realized that it was the ragdoll cat that Slyvia usually kept at home.

However, the cat was at that moment covered in blood and was obviously dead.

Gloria could not help but cover her mouth.

Manuel, who happened to come over, was also stunned.

“What happened?” he asked.

“It, it..."

Before she finished her words, she heard a scream. Slyvia ran over and picked up the cat on the ground, asking in a crying voice, “Sister, why did you hurt Kitty?”

Gloria was stunned. “What did you say?”

“Sister, I know you resent me for ruining your wedding. But you should not take it out on Kitty.”

Slyvia's tears fell and Gloria realized that that was another frame-up. Since that had happened countless times.

But Gloria did not expect Slyvia to frame her by abusing and killing her own pet.

If she remembered correctly, that cat was left by her mother.

Gloria could not help but shudder. In the past, everyone would stand on Slyvia's side, but she still defended herself, “It wasn't me. Someone just threw it here.”

“But the cuts on Kitty's body were obviously made by a professional,” Slyvia said with tears in her eyes. “You are the only one in our family who studies medicine. Apart from you, I don't know who else I can suspect.”

Manuel frowned when he heard that, waved to the servant and gave him a few instructions.

Soon a doctor in a white coat came over, took the cat's body and began to examine it.

“It was indeed cut out with a knife and the technique was very professional. The cat was slowly bled to death in pain.”

Then another security guard came running to report, “We just checked the surveillance and only Miss Gloria came to the garden in the afternoon.”

Manuel's expression suddenly darkened and he looked down at Gloria, “Do you have anything else to say?”

Gloria moved her lips but said nothing. She knew that that kind of thing would be the result.

Finally, she whispered, “What can I say? You never believed me. What else can I say?”

Manuel hesitated when he heard that.

“Sister, are you saying that I deliberately framed you?” Slyvia shook her head and cried even more sadly, “Kitty is the only thing my mother left. Even if it's a false accusation, how could I bear to use its life to frame you?”

As Slyvia said that, she could not bear the shock and fainted.

Manuel quickly supported her, his expression becoming cold and hard again, “Gloria, I didn't expect you to be so vicious now.

“I was the one who abandoned you at the wedding. If you want to blame someone, you should blame me. Why are you taking it out on Slyvia's cat?”

His eyes were full of disappointment as he continued, “We in the Norton Family don't want a young lady who is so mean and cruel. So, why not cancel the engagement?”

“Okay,” Gloria said calmly.

Manuel's anger suddenly froze and then his face became even gloomier. “I'm not kidding you, don't regret it.”

Just as he opened his mouth, Gloria’s parents hurried over.

Without further ado, Gloria’s father slapped Gloria in the face, “How could I raise such a vicious daughter like you?!”

Gloria's face was already swollen from the previous beating and that time blood was oozing out.

Gloria’s father was still furious and raised his hand again when he yelled, “If you can kill a cat today, I think you can kill a person tomorrow. So, I won’t let you free from now on.

“I don’t know why since you woke up, you have always disturbed the whole family. If I had known you would become like this, I would rather you died in that car accident!

“Someone, lock her up for me. No one is allowed to bring her food. We'll talk about it when she's done reflecting on her actions.”

There was a needle-like pain on her face and her head was aching and she felt nauseous. Gloria could not help but dry heave a few times, but the pain in her body could not compare to the pain in her heart.

What had happened that year was that she was the one who dragged her parents and Manuel out of the car that was about to explode one by one.

Because she was saving them, she was hit by the explosion and suffered a head injury, becoming a vegetable and lying there for three years.

But then she was blamed for not dying in that car accident.

Gloria could not tell whether the red fluid on her face was blood or tears. She raised her head and looked at those people who were originally closest to her.

At that moment, their faces looked more unfamiliar than ever before.

Gloria smiled, but her eyes gradually became dead silent and at that moment something completely left her.

Manuel and Gloria’s mother panicked and felt like they had lost something forever. They could not help but plead for Gloria at the same time.

Slyvia stopped them, “Manuel, although I don't want my sister to be locked up, my father's approach is not unreasonable. It's better for my sister to learn a lesson now than for her to get into bigger trouble outside in the future and not be able to deal with it.

“After all, people could only protect her as long as she is at home.”

Hearing Sylvia’s words, Gloria’s mother withdrew her hand.

Manuel also nodded, “I was inconsiderate, it would be good for her to learn a lesson from this.”

Gloria was locked up in an abandoned garage.

Slyvia leaned on Manuel's shoulder with a hidden smile of triumph and said caringly, “Don't worry, I will bring food to my sister and she won't really starve.”

Manuel nodded, “Thank you.”

After Slyvia left, Manuel felt a little sorry for Gloria, so he took a step back and said, “I just said it in anger.

“When Sylvia's depression stabilizes, we will hold the wedding again. Gloria, there is no need for you to be so extreme.”

He looked at the date and continued. “The third day of next month is a good date.”

Gloria felt no emotion at all. She no longer had any expectations for her fiancé.

Her wedding would indeed be on the third day of next month, but the groom would no longer be Manuel.

When Slyvia, who was hiding outside the door, heard Manuel's words, she could not help but grit her teeth and a vicious light suddenly burst out in her eyes.

Slyvia did not expect that after three years of hard work, Manuel still refused to give up on Gloria.

Her nails dug deep into her palms. When she returned to her room, she dialed a number, “Create an accident and kill Gloria!”

At midnight that night, a fire quietly spread.

Gloria did not know that the god of death's scythe was hanging over her head.

In the first twenty years of her life, she was constantly filled with the shadows of her parents and Manuel. 

That tie that they had all been dug out from the bottom of her heart, it felt like there was a hole as big as a bowl in her chest.

She could not help but curl up. Her tears had dried up, but the pain was long and intense and even breathing was heart-wrenchingly painful.

At that moment, she felt disheartened and suddenly felt that there was nothing in the world worth lingering on.

So much so that when she saw the sudden fire, Gloria did not move.

However, the shrill alarm outside woke up everyone in the Huerta Family villa.

“What happened?”

“The garage where Miss Gloria is imprisoned has caught fire!”

Manuel's expression suddenly changed and he quickly rushed towards the garage, but someone was faster than him and kicked open the garage door first, “Sister!”

Seeing Slyvia, Manuel's pupils shrank. “Sylvia, don’t!”

Slyvia rushed into the fire regardless.

Manuel had no choice but to follow her closely.

Seeing Manuel, Gloria, who was staring at the fire with a numb expression, finally had a glimmer of light in her eyes.

But then Slyvia, who was running in front, suddenly smiled and said to Gloria silently, “Sister, do you think he will save you or me?”

After saying that, she let out a scream and fell down.

Manuel subconsciously caught Slyvia, then looked at Gloria with a somewhat conflicted expression.

Finally, he picked up Slyvia and said to Gloria who was in the depths of the sea of fire, “Gloria, I will send Sylvia out first and then come back to save you.”

However, the fire was too big and there was no possibility of entering.

The last glimmer of light in Gloria's eyes was completely extinguished.

She stared blankly at Manuel as he strode away, his back getting farther and farther away.

Seeing his parents running over and anxiously surrounding the unconscious Slyvia, her heart hurt more.

No one remembered her anymore.

In only three years, she became a complete outsider.

Gloria sat down again and watched the burnt beam fall before her eyes with an expressionless face.

“Fine, death may not be a kind of relief,” she muttered.

At the end of my consciousness, the shadows of those people became blurred across the sea of fire.

Gloria raised her head and forced back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes. She hoped that she would never have to see Manuel and that couple again in her next life.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Gloria opened her eyes and saw the white roof of the hospital.

She realized that she seemed to be lucky enough not to die.

A sneer suddenly came from the side.
