Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Sister, His Mistress: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

Rebecca did that on purpose. After all, my birthday had been forcibly moved up by a month years ago when she said she preferred celebrating hers alone. I had not had a birthday party in nearly 15 years.Sure enough, my mom's tone turned cold after hearing her suggestion. "Maisie's birthday had already passed. Come here and see the custom tiara I ordered for you," she said.My dad shot me a sideways glance. "You should learn from Rebecca. Even after what you put her through, she still thinks about celebrating your birthday!"Ezekiel looked at me, too, his brows faintly furrowed.I suddenly remembered our wedding night, when he pressed my hand against his burning chest and whispered, "Maisie, I'll only ever be yours. No one can take me away from you."Now, that same man calmly said, "You should go to your room. Rebecca gets emotionally unstable when she sees you."My eyes stung. I nodded hard, afraid that if I spoke, he would hear how my voice trembled. Once I was back in my room,

"That's impossible! Maisie has had a bad habit of lying since she was a kid. She must be making this up!" my dad scoffed.How ridiculous. They were the ones who had been lying all this time!My dad's words not only dismissed my mom's concerns but also Ezekiel's.He gave me one final look. "When you finally come to your senses, I'll take you to the hospital."After that, the four of them turned and left without looking back.My heart was completely shattered. I threw up a mouthful of blood and had no idea how long I lay there before I finally managed to crawl off the floor. Blood dripped one drop after another onto the ground.Holding onto the railing, I made my way downstairs, every step feeling like my bones were being ripped apart. My body was breaking down, but the baby inside me, the one that was slipping away, was somehow the only thing keeping me going.Just like that dead kitten.When the kitten died, I once thought about jumping out the window. However, I did not. I tol

Agatha shouted, "And what did you do? Not only did you refuse to leave, but you got pregnant! Do you have any idea how much effort the whole family put into making Maisie accept this baby? And now you're saying you want to marry Ezekiel?!"She hissed, "Tell me the truth. Did you plan this from the very beginning? Did you scheme to make Maisie and Ezekiel divorce? Answer me!"That was the first time Rebecca had ever faced her parents' disappointment and accusations. In the past, those looks had always been directed at Maisie, and only now did she understand how much it hurt to have the needle turned on herself.She had never imagined her parents had zero intention of letting her marry Ezekiel. She thought Maisie and Ezekiel's divorce would be a cause for celebration, but now she realized she had been completely wrong.Aside from herself, no one else wanted Ezekiel and Maisie to divorce.Feeling cornered and humiliated, Rebecca bit her lip as tears streamed down her face. "Then, wha

Third-Person Perspective:Ever since Maisie vanished without a trace, it was as if the sun had stopped shining for the Shaffer family.Rebecca lived in a gray, suffocating world every single day, on the verge of losing her mind.Agatha had been devastated ever since learning she had caused her daughter to lose her baby. Her health deteriorated rapidly as she lay in bed all day, with even the best medicine having no effect.Meanwhile, Connor seemed to have aged 20 years overnight, and his carefully maintained hair had turned completely white.He clung to his phone, and every time it rang, his first question was always, "Have you found Maisie? Where is she? Please tell her we know we did her wrong. We just want her to come home."Ezekiel had disappeared after leaving the hospital that day and had not been seen since.As her belly grew bigger each day, Rebecca was too afraid to leave the house, terrified friends would ask who the father was. Later, she snuck out to find Ezekiel and
