Three days after my daughter was born, my husband was killed by a car while running to the store for some groceries. I was so devastated I passed out. When I came to, his funeral was already over, and a stranger was standing in my living room. "I'm your husband's twin brother. I'll be around to help take care of you and the baby." Later, I locked myself in the bathroom with his urn, sobbing uncontrollably, when I overheard his buddies talking through the open window. "Dude, you’re so cool blooded. Inventing a twin brother just to dodge diaper duty? What's next—triplets and quadruplets coming out of the woodwork too?"

Chapter 2
My emotions ran so high that my C-section incision tore open.After getting my baby settled, the doctors and nurses scrambled to stitch me back up.[Hannah, my brother is dead. We have no connection anymore. Stop calling me—my girlfriend will get angry.]As if I wouldn't believe him, Kelvin sent a photo of himself with his girlfriend.I couldn't understand how someone could turn so rotten overnight.Just then, my phone pinged with a notification: "Hot post about [How to escape diaper duties?] has new replies."The post was made the evening after my surgery. I could recognize it was Kelvin's social media account. The most upvoted suggestion advised Kelvin to send the baby to the neonatal unit.Everything went black for a moment.The latest reply from the original poster read: Thanks guys, I'm a free man again.So he hadn't suddenly become terrible—he'd been terrible all along!While paying my baby's hospital bills, I heard a familiar voice."Doctor, payment."I turned to see

Chapter 3
Kelvin's face turned cold. "You've gone too far!"I immediately teared up. “Are you just going to watch them insult your sister-in-law like this? How can you face your dead brother Kelvin?"Kelvin's friends never liked me. They thought I was stuck-up because I didn't hang out with them.At first, I did try joining them for meals, but they would smoke, drink, and crudely judge women at the table, making vulgar comments.I couldn't stand it and stepped out for some air. When I returned, I overheard them deliberately accusing me of being fake and pretentious.Especially that William—he always looked at me with obvious lust. Once, when Kelvin wasn't around, he even tried to touch me.After I told Kelvin, he apologized sincerely and explained that his friends weren't well-educated but were loyal at heart.After we married, I forced myself to maintain a superficial relationship with these people. Now that Kelvin was "dead," our relationship deteriorated back to how awful it was initia

Chapter 4
One night, I was awakened by a video call from Kelvin.He looked awful—dark circles under his eyes and a flushed, alcohol-soaked face from too many nights of partying.Slurring his words, he asked, "Hannah, why can't I unlock the door?" Two scantily dressed women were leaning against him on either side.Kelvin had apparently forgotten his own lie, since he was calling from his original phone number. His "dead" self was making a midnight resurrection. I hung up without changing my expression.The security camera I'd installed outside my door started streaming live footage.Kelvin called me several times but couldn't get through. He finally woke up the neighbor across the hall, who nearly had a heart attack seeing Kelvin standing there.The neighbor's husband came out and threw a kettle of water at Kelvin. Unfortunately, it was only lukewarm.The water sobered Kelvin up a bit."How dare you splash us?"The water had also ruined the makeup of both women."Who... who are you?" th

Chapter 5
I laughed at his ridiculous words."You're insane."After hearing what he said, the neighbor also concluded Kelvin was crazy and threatened to call security to remove him.After being chased away, Kelvin called a locksmith.He couldn't believe I'd actually sold the house.I remembered how I'd immediately begged my parents to buy that apartment after he mentioned wanting a home.Later, Kelvin constantly tried to convince me to add his name to the deed, but somehow, every time we were headed to get it notarized, something would come up. His name was never added.We hadn't even gotten a marriage certificate.He claimed he wanted to "maintain that dating feeling," which perfectly appealed to my romance-obsessed brain. I was so love-struck that I didn't mind not having a certificate or wedding, thinking it was romantic.Our "marriage" was just Kelvin treating his friends to dinner.Looking back, my love-addled brain actually did me a favor this time!The locksmith opened the door

"Hannah, why didn't you contact us when something this serious happened?"My mom couldn't stop crying. She held my hand, clearly upset about my situation.The hospital was too busy with people coming and going, so I brought them back to the postpartum care center."Mom, Dad, it's a long story..."I explained how Kelvin had faked his death. My father's face immediately darkened."That bastard!"My mom started crying again. "I knew it. My stubborn girl wouldn't have touched that card unless she had nowhere else to turn."I felt helpless. I'd actually planned to contact my parents after completing my postpartum recovery, but they showed up early."So now, you're..."My dad studied my mental state, seeming surprised by how calm I was.I smiled. "It's been a while now. I'm treating it like being bitten by a dog. Luckily, we never got our marriage certificate, so everything can still be fixed.""No certificate?"My dad seemed surprised, since I had once been desperate to get marr

Chapter 7
With my parents helping out and entertaining little Tina now and then, I've had a really comfortable postpartum recovery.I almost forgot that I had already booked a banquet hall to celebrate my daughter's birth and our wedding.The day I gave birth, right after I left the hospital room, Kelvin asked me to book a banquet hall. He wanted to throw a lavish party for our baby and have a grand wedding at the same time.I was in pain and exhausted then, but still eagerly worked out all the details with the banquet hall.When the actual day came, Kelvin showed up at my parents' doorstep carefully dressed and holding a bouquet of roses.Too bad I was already in Brookshire by then.Winter was coming and it was getting cold. My parents, concerned for the baby, had already bought a house in Brookshire, saying they wanted to spend winter there.When Kelvin called, I had nearly forgotten about him.“Hannah, open the door! I'm here to take you and the baby to party.”After living carefree

Chapter 8
"I've been blocked again."Kelvin froze for a moment, nearly at his wit's end. "I'll start a livestream. Hannah used to love watching livestreams. She'll definitely come across mine."My mom gave me her phone with a strange expression on her face.When I looked, I saw Kelvin holding up a large photo of me in one hand and a picture of our baby in the other.He was tearfully recounting our love story, and I felt more and more uncomfortable listening to it."Hannah, I don't know if you can see this livestream, but I wanted to propose to you in front of all these viewers. I wanted to give you a grand wedding!""Kelvin, women like Hannah Lanson who run off with your money aren't worth this kind of effort!" William suddenly stood up and righteously proclaimed while chaos erupted around them.I saw Kelvin pause for a moment and look toward his friends.More and more friends stood up—one claimed I wouldn't let Kelvin have friends, another said I tricked him into marriage, and finally s

Chapter 9
"Hannah, look, look—it was this tramp who seduced me. You're still the one I love most."Look, here's a video we made together before. You said you loved me—do you remember?"Afraid I might say no, Kelvin quickly explained."It's okay if you don't remember. Hannah, I love you. I've only loved you my entire life. We've been together since our school days, and now we're married with a child. We're the perfect family!""Look, this is the wedding dress I prepared for you."Kelvin pulled out a large box from nearby. "This is the wedding dress, and this is the veil."He stood up and gestured, "You always envied other people's weddings. See, this veil is big enough to cover both of us. We can kiss under it during the ceremony.""Hannah, can you forgive me?"[What a jerk! He always knew what she wanted but never gave it to her!][This scumbag has the nerve to livestream for attention. It's so frustrating not being able to reach through the screen and slap him!]I didn't send any more

Chapter 10
"What the hell? Who is that?"My dad had just walked in and let out a yelp when he saw the phone screen."Oh, it's that lowlife Kelvin!"When Kelvin didn't get a response from me, he slumped against our front door and pulled out his phone.I zoomed in on the screen and saw he was watching an old video of me—one where I shouted "Kelvin, I love you!" only to be coldly pushed away.Tears streamed down his face, looking genuinely heartfelt.But so what? I was way past feeling hurt about it all."Oh my goodness, little Tina just kicked grandma again, you little troublemaker!"Little Tina could roll over now, but whenever I thought about that day when the doctor rushed her away, her pale face with that bluish tint, my heart just would break.Kelvin owed us for all of this. If my parents hadn't given me that card, if I'd been left with nothing, my baby and I might not have made it that day.One day as we were coming back from the beach, Kelvin suddenly appeared in front of us."Han
