On the wedding day, my fiancé and my sister checked into a hotel and were caught by a crackdown on prostitution.

Under pressure from my parents, I wore my wedding dress to redeem him, but he took the initiative to break off the engagement and marry my sister, Serena.

Even if I couldn’t accept it, I had to accept it.

Who knew that the next day, the whole city said that I was a dissolute person and had a group promiscuity before marriage, so I was broken off.

Others laughed at me for being a rag, but my family didn’t let me come forward to explain for the sake of my sister’s reputation.

Just when I was forced by my family to marry an 80-year-old businessman, my fiancé’s uncle, Rolf came to propose to me.

He said he had loved me for many years and didn’t despise my experience.

I cried and agreed and begged him to help me clarify the facts.

Rolf agreed to clarify, but it had been three years since the marriage, but he still couldn’t find the video lost in the hotel that day.

Until one day, I logged into WhatsApp by mistake on my computer and saw his chat history with someone else.

[Rolf, you obviously love Serena so much, so why do you want to give her up? Why do you want to marry Jocelyn? She has a bad reputation and is not good for your career at all!]

[Jocelyn has the shares of the Snider Family. If I don’t marry her, how can I help Serena fight for all the property? Besides, I ruined her reputation with my own hands and I will be responsible. As for Serena, it’s enough for her to be happy.]

——

[Even so, you can’t cheat on yourself, right? Your disease... Jocelyn is not pregnant with your child now. Are you really so generous that you watch her go to bed with different men?]

[Yes, I have azoospermia and can never have my own children. Letting Jocelyn get pregnant is my last step in planning the future for Serena. At that time, I will use this matter to threaten the Snider Family and make her lose the right to inherit the property forever… I am sorry for Jocelyn, but I will definitely love her for the rest of my life.]

The person on the other side was silent for a long time before sending a message.

[Rolf, you are really crazy. Can’t you see that Serena was caught having sex with Keith in the hotel under your name because she had a plan?]

[Serena is very simple. She just trusted me too much. She was caught because of me. I was too jealous of Keith... Enough, don’t talk about this anymore.]

[Aren’t you afraid that Jocelyn will leave you after knowing all this?]

It was just text, but the last sentence sent by Rolf looked very confident.

[She will never know.]

I didn’t know when, my tears had been all over my face.

My hands were shaking so much that I couldn’t hold the mouse steadily, but I read it over and over again like a self-torture.

Every sentence of these dozen lines of text was like a slap in the face given to me by Rolf himself.

It turned out that three years ago, I was ridiculed by the whole city and the culprit was my trusted and loved husband.

He married me not to save me, but to help the beloved person in his heart to have a clean reputation.

My trembling fingertips stroked my bulging belly bit by bit.

Even this child was born after Rolf gave me sleeping pills every night and made me sleep with different men.

No wonder I had to cover my eyes every time I had sex before I got pregnant.

No wonder he was always careless about the child.

I used to think he was too busy, but now I knew that this was not his child at all.

At this moment, Rolf hugged me from behind with a wet look on his body.

“What are you watching that get you so fascinated?”

He raised his eyes and looked at the screen that was emitting a faint light.

The screen was playing a boring and bloody soap opera.

But Rolf turned around and was shocked by my face full of tears.

“Why are you crying?”

He turned his head and kissed the tears in the corners of my eyes, gently and affectionately.

Rolf always treated me like this, lightly, not that kind of strong love, but I could feel his care.

Now that I knew the truth, I understood that this was all to monitor me.

Because all his passionate love was given to my sister, Serena.

“I am okay, I was just moved by watching drama.”

I tried to suppress the trembling caused by anger.

Rolf thought I was too sentimental and smiled helplessly.

“Silly, these are all fake. By the way, Serena will return to Akso tomorrow to prepare for the competition. You and I will go back to the old house for the family dinner tonight.”

Seeing that I didn’t say anything, Rolf pinched my cheek again.

“Okay, it was Keith who let you down back then and Serena was also innocently implicated. Besides, aren’t you going to participate in that piano competition too? It’s just right that Serena has returned from her studies and you can chat with your sister.”

I prepared for this competition for a long time.

I was practicing the piano even though I had severe morning sickness in the first three months of pregnancy.

No matter what Serena did, I would definitely participate.

I pretended to nod obediently.

Rolf breathed a sigh of relief and his phone vibrated slightly. He smiled at a glance.

“I have work to do temporarily, so I’ll go to the study first. I also bought you a skirt today. It’s in the bedroom. Go try it on.”

His tone was the same as usual, but his eyes were glued to the phone.

When he entered the study, I clicked on WhatsApp on the computer again.

I saw the messages sent by Serena.

The first one was that she was wearing a cool dress and a skirt couldn’t even be pieced together into a complete piece of fabric.

“Can I wear this for the family dinner tomorrow?”

“Serena, it will be cold tomorrow and you will catch a cold if you wear this.”

“Okay, then... I will only wear it for you.”

“Okay.”

My heart seemed to be clenched and loosened by a big hand.

It took me a long time to log out.

I found my phone and made that call.

***

When I returned to the bedroom, I saw a skirt on the bed.

This brand was often bought by Rolf and he was even the SVIP of the store.

In order to be a good Mrs. Davison in front of outsiders, I also went to learn about these brands.

So I recognized it at a glance. It was not the latest style, or even a new dress.

I searched Serena’s WhatsApp's status based on my impression.

Soon, I found this dress in December last year.

Serena wore it and leaned on a man’s arms to drink.

I didn’t like Serena, so I never paid attention to these things.

Now I knew that the man holding her was Rolf.

There was no wedding ring on the ring finger of his right hand, only a faint ring mark.

Looking up, I found that the latest styles of every year and every season were sent to Serena.

No wonder Rolf was an SVIP.

It turned out that what I wear was always what others didn’t want.

Thinking of this, I stumbled to the dressing table to look for my jewelry.

Rings, necklaces, bracelets...

All of them were engraved with the letter S.

Rolf really loved Serena.

Looking up at this cold bedroom again, there was not a single photo of us.

Even the wedding photos were put into the basement one month after the wedding.

I was very confused at the time, but Rolf just explained it lightly.

“I don’t like to have photos at home. Besides, I don’t think my love for you needs to be proved by photos.”

I couldn’t sleep at all during the thunderstorm.

I just curled up in bed and waited for dawn.

When I was half asleep, I heard Rolf coaxing Serena to sleep.

Such a serious person was actually telling the story of the Little Mermaid.

He climbed onto the bed only after I heard the sound of breathing on the other end of the phone, gently stroked my eyebrows and then helped me rub my swollen calves.

His voice was soft.

“Jocelyn, just work hard for a while. It will be over soon.”

I pretended to turn my head unconsciously and my tears fell into the pillow.

Yes, it would be over soon.

When I got up early in the morning, the pillow was already cold.

The pocket of the coat hanging on the side was vibrating all the time.

I thought Rolf forgot to bring his phone to work, so I walked over and took it out.

But I found it was a phone I had never seen him use.

The alarm was set on the calendar.

[Serena is returning to Akso. The flight is...]

The numb vibration almost made me lose my grip on the phone.

The lock screen showed Serena’s sleeping face.

If I had found this phone earlier, I would have entered my own lock screen password.

But now, I just entered Serena’s birthday and unlocked it easily.

The wallpaper was Serena’s graduation photo.

There were tens of thousands of photos of Serena in the album.

Even if it was a waste of photos in the eyes of girls, Rolf was reluctant to delete it.

I swallowed my tears, took a deep breath and adjusted myself before putting the phone back.

The next second, Rolf opened the door.

He cared about me a little unnaturally.

“Did my phone wake you up? Sorry, I have a lot of work recently.”

Then he took the coat and covered the phone without leaving any trace.

Afraid that I would know that it was a spare phone.

I lowered my head and touched my belly.

“It’s because the child is too noisy. Rolf, can you accompany me to the prenatal check-up today?”

Rolf looked embarrassed and came over to kiss my forehead.

“Baby, how about next time?”

I barely pulled the corner of my mouth.

“Okay.”

Rolf, there wouldn’t be a next time.

After Rolf left, I changed my clothes casually and took a taxi away without disturbing the driver.

I knew he wouldn’t agree to accompany me.

I didn’t want him to accompany me in the first place.

Swiping through the address book, I found Keith, who was blacklisted by me.

When I called the tenth times, Keith finally answered impatiently.

“Jocelyn, you still want to pester me after three years? I’m married to Serena! If you hadn’t suddenly returned to the Snider Family to recognize your ancestors, the marriage partner would never have been you…”

I interrupted Keith’s chattering.

“Keith, your wife cheated on you, did you know?”

Keith was silent for a rare time.

“Serena won’t betray me.”

His voice was obscure and he seemed to have thought of something.

I looked at the scenery receding outside the window and wiped away my tears.

I also thought Rolf wouldn’t betray me.

“Check it again, Keith, check it carefully.”

After hanging up the phone, I asked the driver to park the car at the law firm.

I drafted a divorce agreement and went home again.

Until the afternoon, Rolf, who used to work overtime every day, came home on time to pick me up.

It seemed that he was about to get what he wanted and the corners of his mouth were raised intentionally or unintentionally.

The old house of the Davison Family was located halfway up the mountain.

When we arrived, there were already some people.

I had been married for three years, but the Davison Family still didn’t like me.

A few side branches whispered something when they saw me.

“Jocelyn is obviously the real daughter of the Snider Family, but it has been three years and she hasn’t changed her surname to Snider.”
