Chapter 1

Because my twin brother, Silas, had been sickly from the day he was born, my parents always favored him.On our birthday, they'd buy two cakes, but Silas blew out the candles on both of them, and Silas cut both of them too.My parents would crowd around him, put the party hat on his head, and sing "Happy Birthday" to him... while I sat off to the side like a stranger who didn't matter.It wasn't just my parents. Even Corinne Devereux—my childhood sweetheart, the girl our families had always planned for me to marry—paid special attention to Silas.At school, she'd bring him lunch, take notes for him, and tutor him. And whenever Silas felt unwell and went to lie down in the nurse's office, Corinne, who never skipped class, would walk right out of the classroom just to keep him company.Sometimes I got jealous and asked her why she was so good to him.She'd always smile. "Because he's your brother. You two look exactly alike. Taking care of him is just part of loving you."But Cori

Chapter 2

Every time Silas fainted when we were kids, my parents scolded me. They said it was my fault for stealing the nutrients that should've gone to him in the womb, and that was why he was born so sickly.They said it so many times that eventually I believed it too.I really thought it was all my fault. So I grew up drowning in guilt and bent over backward to be good to Silas. Anything he wanted, I saved up to buy for him. Every time he got into trouble, I quietly took the fall.In middle school, Silas stole money from the school bully. After class, the bully showed up with a whole gang to corner us. The second Silas realized things were going south, he pointed at me and shouted, "My brother took the money! It had nothing to do with me!"Then a dozen guys jumped me. The bully had them pin me down and brought a metal pipe down on my arm, snapping the bone.Even then, I gritted my teeth and never told anyone the truth.In tenth grade, Silas hid in the girls' restroom and secretly filmed

Chapter 3

Corinne seemed to have misunderstood. She thought I was selling the house we'd moved into as newlyweds.I couldn't be bothered to explain, so I just went along with it. "Last night, you slept with Silas in this house. I can't get past it, and I don't want to live here anymore. Is that a problem?"Corinne froze for a second, then smiled."Of course you can. If you don't like this house, I'll give it to your brother and buy you another one next door," she said. "But you can't hold it against me, because I only slept with your brother for your sake."I'm a very traditional woman. I could never be with two men. But I love you so much that I was willing to sacrifice myself to help make your brother's wish come true... I've gone this far for you. You should be thanking me. How can you hold it against me?"It was so outrageous I almost laughed. She'd betrayed me, and I was supposed to thank her?She was the one who'd wanted to sleep with Silas, yet she was acting like she'd sacrificed h

Chapter 4

The lively room fell silent at once. Every eye turned to me."Emmett, what proof do you have that the creep who hid in the girls' restroom filming people back then was Silas and not you?""Exactly! If you don't have hard evidence, stop shouting nonsense. I sure don't believe you took the fall for your brother."My classmates clamored for me to show them proof. I turned to look at Corinne."Corinne can prove it," I said. "Because back then, she's the one who came down to the police station and bailed Silas and me out."Back then, when Silas was caught filming a girl in the restroom, she called the police right away.But before the police arrived, Silas shook off the girl who'd caught him and ran.And because Silas and I looked exactly alike, the girl who'd called the police couldn't tell whether the boy she'd caught in the restroom was me or Silas.So the police took both of us down to the station for questioning.The police were good at their jobs. They quickly found the video

Chapter 5

There was a tiny scratch on Silas's arm—so small you'd never notice it unless you looked closely.But Corinne was beside herself. She immediately had someone fetch the first-aid kit and began carefully treating Silas's arm.I was covered in cuts from head to toe, yet she didn't so much as glance at me.I wiped the blood from my face, turned, and went upstairs.Once I was upstairs, I took out my phone and called my best friend, who worked for the police department."Declan, could you look up Silas's criminal record and send it to me?" I asked quietly.Now that Silas was an adult, the police no longer had to keep his record sealed.So my friend agreed right away. "Emmett, you're finally going to tell the truth? That's great! You should've done this a long time ago!"Not long after I hung up, Declan sent over Silas's record.It stated in black and white that the police had found over a hundred hidden-camera recordings on Silas's phone!That was enough to prove that Silas was the

I gave Corinne a long look, then said coldly, "And what if I refuse?"The words had barely left my mouth when Dad slapped me across the face. "Are you trying to ruin your brother's life?!"Mom chimed in. "Emmett, I know you feel wronged. But you've already carried this for so many years. There's no need to drag your brother down now. Silas isn't even married yet. If you tell everyone the truth, how will he ever find a wife?"So they knew. They knew being branded the guy who filmed girls in the bathroom could ruin a man's life.Then why, back when they pushed me forward to take the fall for Silas, had none of them stopped to think about what would happen to my life?I laughed, even as a pain like a knife twisted deep in my chest. I fought through it and said, "Didn't you all tell me Silas was critically ill and didn't have long to live?"I gave him my wedding night to fulfill his dying wish, and now you're talking about him getting married and having kids someday... So now I'm con

Chapter 7

In the hospital's luxury VIP suite, Silas lay weakly in bed.His parents, Doug and Diane Carlisle, kept watch at his bedside along with Corinne."Silas, you're finally awake." Corinne gripped his hand tightly, her lovely eyes rimmed with red. "Why would you do something so stupid? Do you have any idea how badly you scared me?!"Diane dabbed at her tears beside the bed. "Silas, whatever it is, can't we talk it through? Why would you try to end your life? Your father and I aren't young anymore. We can't take a scare like this!"Silas bit his lip, looking as if he'd been deeply wronged. "I didn't want to do it either. But Emmett was secretly going to expose my record... Once it gets out, what will all my old classmates think of me? What will the neighbors think?"Everyone will see me as some twisted creep. I'd rather be dead!"He grew more and more worked up as he spoke. By the end, he threw off his blanket, climbed out of bed, and made as if to bash his head against the wall."I c

Chapter 8

The room was empty. There wasn't a soul in it.It really shouldn't have been a big deal. Emmett had probably just gone to the bathroom.But for some reason, looking at that empty room, Corinne suddenly felt a jolt of panic.She had the sudden feeling that she was about to lose Emmett.The feeling left her flustered and on edge. She shook her head hard, trying to shake off all the unease.Stop overthinking! Emmett loves you so much—how could you ever lose him? Corinne told herself. Besides, you're married. Your name and Emmett's are printed right there on the marriage certificate. The two of you are bound together for life. Nothing could ever split you up!At that thought, Corinne finally calmed down a little.She pulled out her phone, ready to call Emmett and ask where he'd gone.But the moment she unlocked the screen, a message popped up.It was from Emmett. Corinne opened it immediately.And then she saw the last words Emmett had left her before he went: "Corinne, congratul

Chapter 9

In that instant, Corinne's mind went completely blank.Even before Nora called, she'd vaguely sensed that Emmett wanted to leave her. But back then, it had only been a hunch. Part of her had still clung to hope, imagining that Emmett was just jealous and sulking, and didn't actually mean to cut her off for good.But now, Nora's call had shattered that illusion completely.Corinne instantly flew into a rage. "What did you say? Emmett bought a ticket and flew to Aldmere? Which city? Find out right now! I want to know exactly where he is within ten minutes!"With that, she hung up.Her eyes went cold.Ha! Her Emmett was so naive.Did he really think that just because he'd run off to Aldmere, he could slip out of her grasp?The Devereux family empire was enormous, and its business had expanded overseas long ago. She had plenty of deals going in Aldmere herself, and many of the biggest tycoons there were old friends of her father's. As far as she was concerned, Emmett fleeing to

Chapter 10

The impact was brutal. Silas saw stars.Blood streamed down, staining half his face red.He was dazed with pain. It took him a long time to come back to his senses.When he finally did, he slowly raised his head and looked at Corinne, his eyes full of hurt.That reproachful look seemed to ask, Corinne, how could you not stop me?But Corinne didn't rush over to comfort him like she used to.There was even a chill in the way she looked at him. "Have you calmed down now?"Her gaze was so cold that Silas was instantly cowed. He nodded on reflex, and his expression turned much more subdued.Only then did Corinne walk over and help him up off the floor."Silas, I wasn't ignoring you just now. I wanted you to learn a lesson... You're not a kid anymore. When something happens, can't you keep a cool head instead of threatening to kill yourself every five minutes?"So your record got out. What's the big deal? I'll spend a little money and have a PR team steer the narrative, and I can c
