Chapter 3

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.”
