- 2.
After locking the door, I grabbed Wendy’s
hand and asked excitedly, “Wendy, did you
also get a do–over?”
Wendy’s eyes widened.
“Wendy, you too?”
I nodded emphatically.
I gnashed my teeth and asked Wendy,
“Wendy, did Sterling abuse you? Did he
cheat? Why the hell did you commit suicide?”
Wendy was the kind of person who would
suffer in silence if it meant keeping the family
happy.
The Sterling’s said she killed herself because
of depression.
But my sister was a sweet, sensible girl
before marriage. Where did the depression
come from?
Sterling must have been mistreating her!
But to my surprise, Wendy shook her head
sadly.
“No, I was just felt like there was no reason
to live so I ended things.”
I instantly opened my eyes wide, “How?”
F
Wendy gave a bitter smile.
“It’s true. Sterling is a workaholic. Out of 365
days a year, he works outside 360 days.”
“It’s embarrassing to admit, but he spent our wedding night at the office.”
“We’ve been married for three years and
haven’t slept in the same bed.”
“Mrs. Sterling kept pressuring me for kids, so
I had to put my self–respect aside and go to
him. But he didn’t even look at me and went
to his meeting.”
Tears started falling as she spoke.
“I always thought I was good enough, but
being around Sterling completely destroyed
my confidence.”
I clenched my fists until my knuckles turned
white.
“Ignoring his beautiful wife to go work? He’s
probably gay and married you to hide his
sexuality.” I said furiously.
But Wendy shook her head.
“It’s not like that. He never shorted me with
money. He always brought back expensive
gifts when he went on business trips, and he
would transfer me at least a billion dollars
every year for our anniversary and my
birthday.”

Wendy lowered her head and choked, “I know
if I say this, you’ll all think I’m ungrateful. He’s
already so generous, so what else am I asking
for?”

Wendy, I get it. You didn’t marry him for
money. You just wanted someone who could
understand you.”
At least twenty million a year, who wouldn’t
be jealous?
If this went online, people would accuse
Wendy of wanting too much.
What if your husband never comes home?
What if your husband never touches me?
A life with money and free time where you
don’t need to deal with your husband sounds
like a dream.
Other than the husband not loving you, there
are no other downsides.
But Wendy wasn’t like me. She needed to be
loved and valued.
She could give up what she really wanted to
make her family happy.
If we weren’t twins, I might have been tricked
by her too.
So no matter how generous Sterling was, it
didn’t make her happy.
Wendy never wanted money, but the
emotional support.
A
Of course, I didn’t think Wendy would get
だ
depression because of Sterling.
She didn’t interact with him much, so how
could she get depression because of a man
she barely knows?
I narrowed my eyes and looked at Wendy,
“Did Sterling’s mom pressure you to have
kids?”
Wendy’s face turned white.

//
She nodded with red eyes.
I knew it!
Sterling was never home, so the person who
spent the most time with Wendy was her
mother–in–law, Mrs. Sterling.
I heard Sterling had a spoiled younger sister.
A
Wendy’s depression last time must have
something to do with them.
Then I thought about the Zimmerman dude I
married in my last life, constantly complaining
that I was like a shrew, not a gentle and
elegant socialite princess. My eyes lit up.
Wendy, how about we switch?”
Although Zimmerman was short–tempered,
rough, and looked intimidating, he never laid a
hand on me last time, no matter how much
we argued.
At most; he would call me a “shrew” and
storm out.
He said more than once after we got married
that he wanted to marry a well–educated
socialite princess because he didn’t go to
college.
He thought I, a socialite, would be elegant
and graceful, but I was even wilder than him.
Wendy was his ideal woman.
As for the Sterling’s?
Heh!
I will make their house a living hell, I won’t let
them get away with how they treated my
sister.
Wendy nodded without hesitation when she
heard what I said.
“Deal!”
