Chapter 2

I didn't even have time to react before they surrounded me.

Someone yanked my hair, another hit me on the back. One even tried to slap my face, but I managed to fight back.

Roselyn stood behind the others, causing trouble. "Aunt Sadie, go easy on her. My husband loves this tramp's face!"

"And those eyes, always luring people in!"

"She works with dead bodies every day, yet my husband says they're beautiful. He even prepares hot water for her to wash up after work!"

I hadn't eaten breakfast, and I had been standing all afternoon. I was exhausted.

I grabbed someone's arm and shoved her aside. I roared, "I'm her sister-in-law! Her husband is my brother!"

Someone paused and looked at Roselyn suspiciously. "Roselyn, is she really not your sister-in-law?"

Feigning innocence, Roselyn said, "Aunt Sadie, she dares to claim she's my sister-in-law in front of you. Imagine how she bullies me when you're not around!"

"I finally found a good man to marry, and all I want is a peaceful life. But this wicked woman wants me to divorce my husband!"

"She said that if I divorced, everything in my house would be hers, and I'd never be able to drive my car to visit you again!"

I had indeed said those words, but it was when Roselyn was causing trouble at home, and I was warning her.

They started hitting me. These women might look thin, but they were all strong farm workers, each with a stronger grip than the last.

My scalp hurt like hell, as if it were being torn off. I mustered all my strength and kicked the person pulling my hair to the ground.

I struggled to get my phone out and found a photo of my brother and me.

"Look closely. This is a photo of me and my brother. We are real siblings!"

The girl in front widened her eyes. "Roselyn, could you be lying to us? She does look a lot like your husband!"

"The Saunders family does have a girl, and I heard she's a college student!"

"Now that you mention it, I remember seeing this girl at the Saunders' house during Roselyn's wedding!"

Roselyn snorted and acted like she didn't care. "Aunt Sadie, you've met Liam's parents. This woman is too beautiful to be from the Saunders family!"

"Even if she is Liam's real sister, she shouldn't be trying to get close to her own brother!"

"Roselyn, what do you want? My colleagues aren't back yet, so if you have something to say, say it now. If you push me too far, you'll regret it!"
