My Sister Faked Her Death and Returned After I Died

My body was sent to the autopsy room. Mom put on a mask and began the examination. Her assistant suddenly asked her, "Hey, it’s almost New Year. Has Scott still not come back? It’s been two years."My parents framed me and sent me to prison two years ago. They kept this secret from everyone, only telling them that I had gone to work in another city.When Mom heard my name, a look of disgust immediately flashed across her eyes. "Don’t mention her. She disgusts me.” She and Dad hated me deeply because they believed I killed my sister. I will never forget how my life changed after my sister left.At the start, they kept me from school before sending me to work at a construction site. When I came back, they made me eat scraps meant for the dog at the doorstep. I cried as I ate, feeling nothing but grievance in my heart."Does it hurt?” Mom had taunted. “But did you suffer as much as your sister did? She was burned alive in that fire! She was only 19, and in the prime of her life!"Dad

Early the next morning, Mom and Dad were preparing to drive to the police station when a girl stopped them. I recognized her immediately. It was Nina Travers, my former high school classmate. We had made a pact to apply to the same university and start a relationship. Instead, I was sent to prison by my parents."Mr. Speck, Mrs. Speck, do you know where Scott has gone? Can you tell me?” she asked, her eyes were a bit red.Judging from her words, she must have been searching for me for a long time. I really felt for her, but I could not make it up to her anymore.Mom got out of the car. "Young woman, you’re so pretty, so why do you keep thinking about that terrible person? There are better men in this world. He’s not right for you.""No, he’s not a terrible person. He’s my boyfriend," Nina said stubbornly.My heart was full of emotion. I did not expect her to still remember our promise."Alright, alright, hurry up. We still have to investigate the case today,” Dad urged. With that

Mom cooked a feast and set the table, her face all smiles. I had not seen her smile like this in a long, long time. Dad was also very happy, taking out a bottle of his treasured red wine. I felt like a little voyeur, peeking into their happy family life. At that moment, Dad's phone rang. It was a call from Captain Carter. Just as he was about to answer, Mom interrupted him, “Don't answer it. They’re probably asking you to go back to work. Right now, spending time with Selene is the most important thing.”Selene smiled and said, “Yes, Dad, I haven’t seen you both in so long, I really miss you. Let’s go to Santa Anna for a trip tomorrow. I bought us the tickets already. You two should just push your work aside.” Mom and Dad agreed without hesitation and a sense of emptiness filled my heart. If this were a novel, it would probably be the perfect ending by now. Why was I still here though? Why did I still have to watch this family? I really did not want to watch anymore. After all, t

Mom and Dad each held a safety charm in their hand as they entered the house. Selene and Faris had just finished setting the table. Smiling, Selene said, "Mom, Dad, you must not have been eating well these past few days. You need to take care of yourselves, for Scott's sake. Only then can you find the murderer." "Yes," Mom replied hoarsely."Where is Nina?" "She already left. She said she had to go back to school." A sense of melancholy washed over me. I probably would not see Nina again, but it was fine. I wished her a good life from now on. Dad did not say a word. He just picked up a piece of food and put it in his mouth while Mom took a sip of soup. The next moment, both of them seemed to lose focus. Selene suddenly smiled at them. "This time, it's your turn to die." My heart skipped a beat. So she really was not my sister? Who was she? Mom and Dad began to lose consciousness, but they were still half-awake. Selene and Faris quickly tied them up and then starte
