Xia Fen laughed at herself in self-deprecation. She had misplaced to Xia Chun, so how might she blame her daughter for doing the identical with Xia Chun’s daughter?

Since they had been youngsters, her dad and mom had at all times doted on her sister, Xia Chun. Maybe it was as a result of her dad and mom had no male inheritor, however Xia Chun turned the apple of their eye, and so they had at all times executed their greatest to boost her properly.

It was a pity that Xia Chun would by no means meet her dad and mom’ expectations.

She had begged, oh how she had begged, however her boyfriend’s household would hear nothing of it. They might not permit her to marry their son.

To make issues worse, she bought pregnant. Not understanding whose little one it was, she had wished to abort it, however her dad and mom blackmailed her into giving start to the kid on ache of their joint suicide ought to she not adjust to their calls for. Every thing turned on its head when her little one was born.

After ten months, she went into labor and gave start to twins. Xia Fen instantly known as for a DNA check. Thankfully, the youngsters weren’t fathered by Xia Chun’s betrothed however by the person she liked.

Xia Fen held the pen her outdated boyfriend had gifted her in a vice. The hatred she had buried surged to the floor, however she had nowhere and nobody to vent it on. She couldn’t settle for this. She couldn’t settle for this!

Every time she heard how the person she as soon as liked pampered his spouse, her thoughts would drift to a thousand ‘what ifs.’ Would she have discovered happiness if her sister had not ruined her life? Would she be the one dwelling fortunately with the person she liked and never whoever he had married?

She couldn’t stand it!

Xia Fen buried her face in her arms and wept, her coronary heart clenching in ache, and her respiration got here in hiccups and gasps.

She rapidly popped a tablet and swallowed it. She needed to keep sturdy. She nonetheless had her two beloved youngsters, the twins sired by the person she liked.
