บททั้งหมดของ My Sister Sent Me to Die, but My Fiancé Saved Me: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Third-person POV:Nina didn't come home that night.Not one member of her family was worried.Ethan picked up a dessert from the table and handed it to Wendy, who sat beside him."Don't worry about her. She's throwing another tantrum for attention."She's been like this for three years. Selfish and spoiled."Wendy pressed her lips together and came to Nina's defense in a soft voice. "Ethan, Nina just scares easily. Don't talk about her like that."Ethan gave a cold snort."Scared? That's what growing up in an orphanage did to her. She'll never change. All she does is bring trouble to this family."Just then, the evening news came on the living room TV, loud and clear."The abandoned rest stop is extremely dangerous at night. Please do not go there alone."They all glanced at the screen, but no one gave it a second thought.Mr. Mercer didn't care where Nina was right now.All he cared about was tomorrow night's Christmas party, where the city's elite would gather.The Mercer family had

I straightened up and stepped out of the shadows, one step at a time.The moment I appeared, the noisy ballroom went quiet.All eyes in the room turned to my injured face.In the middle of the crowd, Wendy suddenly looked panicked.But she quickly put on her sweet, innocent act again, came over, and linked her arm through mine like we were close."Nina? What are you doing here?"I didn't say anything. I just pulled my arm away, and Wendy instantly looked wounded.Mr. and Mrs. Mercer looked embarrassed and furious.Mr. Mercer shouted at me, "Nina, who gave you permission to come here?"Mrs. Mercer's voice was ice-cold too. "What do you think you're doing here?! We just finished cleaning up the mess you made by calling the police. What kind of trouble are you trying to stir up now?"Ethan stepped in front of Wendy, as if he was afraid I'd hurt her."Go home right now. Don't make a scene here.""That necklace was bought with money from the trust fund Grandpa left me, wasn't it, Mom?"I di

A phone recording played from the tablet, every word clear.Wendy's voice came through, colder than anyone had ever heard it. "Get a few guys to stop her at the rest stop tonight. Strip her, take pictures and post them online, then kill her."Right after that, the screen showed high-definition security footage.In a private club, Wendy was handing a bag of cash to a gang member.Then came the full chat history."Oh my God... she actually hired someone to kill her own sister!""She acts like a lady, but who knew she could be so vicious?""That's a felony!"The guests around her stepped back in horror.The same people who'd been fawning over Wendy a minute ago now looked at her with contempt and disgust.Wendy was shaking all over, deathly pale.She collapsed to the floor, screaming in despair. "No! It's not true! Someone's framing me! Mr. Sterling, let me explain...""Framing you?"I gave a cold laugh."Wendy, you set up the game of drawing lots that sent me to the abandoned rest stop,

Early the next morning, reporters crowded outside the Sterling Group building.I watched Mrs. Mercer crying in front of the cameras."We brought Nina home, but she stole Wendy's place as Adrian's fiancée, and then had Wendy thrown in jail just to get her hands on the inheritance."Ethan stood next to her, speaking angrily into the cameras. "Nina is selfish. She faked every video from that party. She was willing to destroy her own family just to marry into money!"When he saw me walking over, Ethan charged at me, jabbing a finger in my face and yelling, "Nina! You ruined Wendy. You're vicious! You're a disgrace to the family!"He blocked the cameras and leaned in close to my ear to threaten me. "Sign a statement forgiving Wendy right now, and give up the trust fund! Otherwise, by the end of today, the whole world will know you're the shameless liar who framed your own family!"I looked at him and gave a cold laugh."Ethan, did you forget what you said to me on the phone that night?"I r

A month later, the court handed down the final verdict.Wendy was sentenced to twelve years in prison for attempted murder and assault.Ethan got eight years for covering up the crime, conspiring in the murder-for-hire plot, and forging business contracts.All of Mr. Mercer's assets were frozen and seized over large-scale business fraud and serious tax evasion, and he faced up to ten years behind bars.The Mercer estate was sold at a court-ordered auction, and every cent went back into the trust fund in my name.On the day the verdict came down, Mrs. Mercer stood outside the prison gates in a shabby black dress, her eyes empty.Once the wife of a wealthy businessman, she now had to live off handouts from distant relatives.She cried hysterically, trying to see Ethan and Wendy, but the guards chased her off without a shred of pity.Outside the towering iron gates of the jail, I rolled down my car window.Through the pouring rain, Mrs. Mercer recognized me right away.She rushed over, fe
