When My Husband Chose My Sister Over Me Again

In my previous life, after our parents passed away unexpectedly, Zara and I were taken in by the Browns. Zara, with her charm and cleverness, won the two elders over, and they treated her even better than their own daughter. Haven was quick to push for Zara to marry Oliver. However, Zara effortlessly replied, "I don't want to compete with my sister," leading Oliver to willingly choose me instead. It was obvious she never intended to keep him; at the time, Oliver was just a platoon leader, and she aspired to something greater.

I visited the campus to learn about the preparations required for college, along with living expenses, and only after understanding everything did I feel relieved enough to head back.

As soon as I returned to Oliver's home, I overheard Zara's playful banter:

"Oliver, you came back to keep me company instead of Nina—won't she be upset?"

"She's easygoing," Oliver responded nonchalantly.

"But whenever you take care of things, you end up getting hurt. I'm worried about you being here on your own."

Zara laughed, then pretended to be briefly sad,

"Will Oliver still treat me well after marrying my sister?"

"Of course," Oliver replied firmly, "If not you, then who?"

"If your sister doesn't treat you right, I'll divorce her!"

I clenched my fists, trying to quell the heartache rising within me. Here I was, given another chance at life, yet hearing my husband speak so coolly about me still caused pain.

After calming myself down, I entered the room as if nothing had happened.
