I would never mistake those two profile pictures for anything else. Their conversation was just casual banter between a married couple. "Remember to get two bags of salt" or "Buy me a cake."How could the marriage between my parents, which had lasted for so many years, be fake? It seemed like Jinny was unaware that she was the mistress of the relationship. She even came all the way to my place to cause a scene.I remembered that Jinny used to tell us that her "husband" had a bad temper and that he had a tendency to hit people when he was drunk.She also said that he loved finding faults with everything and throwing insults around. My dad was such a great actor. He seemed so normal when he was with me and Mom. In reality, he was an immoral man who was cheating on his wife, and he revealed his dark side to his mistress,We, the roommates, discovered the scars on Jinny once. We were so worried about her, but she kept making excuses for her man. She said that he treated her v
The people with Jinny became hesitant. They turned around and looked at Jinny."Why do you care about all that? Just beat her up!"Jinny didn't answer their question. Instead, she urged them to beat me up. Back when we were in school together, we would only ever speak with each other when it was something related to school. That was why we didn't know much about each other. I just had to make something up. I knew she wouldn't know if I was lying or not. The girls with her were clearly paid by Jinny to back her up. None of them were prepared to take a life for some money and get sent to jail. None of them moved a muscle since they didn't get a clear answer from Jinny. They just stood around me and hurled insults at me. I picked up my phone and aimed the camera at them to record a video. Then, I sent it to my mom. I also sent the link to Jinny's livestream to her. I urged her to come home quickly and to bring my dad with her. "What is the meaning of this? Did I pay you al
The opals weren't mine. Why would I feel bad that they were broken? I ignored Jinny's screaming and chose to call the police. "Some women trespassed into my property and destroyed my belongings. They broke over a dozen opals. Every single one of those opals comes with a certificate. They are valued in the millions."Jinny clutched her stomach and burst into laughter after I ended the call. "Did you think you'd be able to fool me? I've gone to college before. I'm not that easy to trick. I know my rights. The things given to a mistress can be taken back.""Whatever you say."I nodded lightly to indicate that I understood what she was saying. "She is definitely putting on airs. She's still acting tough! Jinny, we shouldn't back down."The words of the people around her made Jinny feel at ease. "Jinny, look! I broke such a huge opal. Please trust in my abilities."One of the women pointed at a bunch of opal shards as she tried to claim credit with a pleased expression. "Ye
Jinny leaned into my father's embrace as the camera moved toward her. "Wow, Jinny! That's your man? He looks quite mature. He's… He's great," one of the women who came with her said awkwardly. "Would you look at that? Thomas Yates, your pregnant mistress is causing a scene in our home." My mom sneered as she looked at two of them."Hey, who are you, old hag? I'm not a mistress. Stop talking smack!"Before Jinny could say anything else, my dad pushed her away. "Honey, please let me explain. I don't even know this woman. She must have escaped from an asylum or something."My dad was panicking. He adamantly claimed that he didn't know Jinny. Jinny tried to get closer to him again, but he quickly pushed her away. This was the man she sang praises of. He abandoned her immediately when things went wrong. My mom didn't care about the fiasco happening right before her. She called her lawyer immediately and started to ask about getting a divorce. "Honey! What's wrong? I can't
Back then, my dad was still part of the ground crew at an airport. He was very honest and down-to-earth back then. He also respected my mom's career. My mom had some feelings for him, but she remained rational. She had already seen cases of women who were the only child of well-off families swindled by awful men. They weren't just hurt. They also had their fortune stolen from them."If you truly loved me, why would you be eyeing my money?" was the mindset my mom had. So, my parents signed a prenup. It stated that in the event of a divorce, the man would automatically give up rights to a cut of the woman's assets if he was at fault. They only went to register their marriage after the prenup was signed. "Didn't you say you were a close friend of mine? Why wouldn't my close friend know that I took my mom's last name? Why wouldn't you know what my parents looked like?"Jinny clutched her head without saying a word. It was like she couldn't believe that was the true colors of the
"Hey, give it back to me! How dare you run away with my Hermés bag?"Unexpectedly, Jinny noticed that the people she brought with her were trying to run. She disregarded her own pathetic state and grabbed the Hermés bag that one of the women was clutching tightly in her arms. Then, the two of them started fighting. "Didn't you give it to me? Why are you trying to take it back? Why did you act like you were rich when you're broke?"Jinny was already on her last legs. That woman was able to shake her off when she grabbed the bag and swung it lightly. The force caused Jinny to fall to the ground.Although that group of people was hired by Jinny, they left her behind without batting an eye.Surprisingly, they were back within a minute. They were brought back by cops. They were carrying all sorts of tools and were leaving the scene in a hurry. The police immediately realized something was off and brought them back. Jinny completely ignored the presence of the police. She was sti
My dad burst out in laughter when he heard what Jinny said. "You're so naive. Did I ask you to come here? Did I ask you to drop out of school? You're talking like I forced you to do all that."As he was talking, he poked Jinny's forehead with his finger. His tone was extremely condescending. "Go away! You're shameless! How can you put all of the blame on me?"Jinny raised her leg and kicked my dad right in the groin. She probably wasn't strong enough to do any real damage to him. He yelled in pain and covered his crotch with his face contorted in pain. After a couple of minutes, he was able to stand up straight again."How dare you do that to me? Perhaps I've been too easy on you."He kicked Jinny in the stomach right after he said that. Then he got on top of her and started raining blows on her. The police quickly restrained my dad when they saw that. When we went to check on Jinny, we noticed that her nether region was bleeding. At that point, the entire fiasco was fi
Jinny was staring out of the window. She didn't even move when I entered her ward.I thought she wanted to be left alone, so I placed the withdrawal confirmation letter on her table and turned around to leave. "Mary, I've heard that a criminal record will never go away. I put your father in jail. It was revenge for my unborn child. But I also did it so you'll be affected as well. I'm sure it would be tough to get a governmental position if your dad's a criminal."She smiled. "So? Are you kidding me? Why would I ever want to work for the government? Why would I want to look for a job?"I was utterly shocked by her words. Why would I ever need to work for money when my mom's rich? I just have to spend her money and enjoy life. Why would I have to go through all that trouble?"Stop acting tough. I'm quite happy that I'm able to cause you some trouble in the end."Hearing her words only served to help me make up my mind. "Jinny, why are you so dumb? You were completely reckless

"That minx is so shameless. She's living in such a luxurious neighborhood! I know my husband works hard to earn his keep, so I've never asked him for much. God knows how much money that minx has taken from my husband!"Jinny was still cursing up a storm in her live-stream. Her pretty face was flushed from the anger. She brought a small group of people with her, and they looked quite intimidating. The security guard had wanted to stop them at the entrance but gave up once he learned they were there to catch a mistress. He didn't want to meddle in other people's family matters, so he looked the other way and let them in.So, the mistress she was talking about lived in my neighborhood?What a coincidence that was.I wanted to keep watching, but the camera was unstable and was shaking. There was also a lot of static noise. I quickly lost interest in the livestream. I turned it off and went back to the movie I was watching before. After a while, I heard someone knocking heavily
