Chapter 2

She glared at her bastard cheating husband. "You are cheating on me on our anniversary day—with my sister too? Zoe yelled, her chest heaving with extortion.

"Calm down, I can explain this."

"Explain what?!" Zoe bellowed, feeling her tears uncontrollably pour from her eyes, while she felt an intense urge to claw the skin out of Stanley's face.

"You are overreacting," Stanley said calmly. "I'm just replacing you with your sister."

"What?" Her tone was inaudible, unable to believe her ears. 

"Geez! Yeah, why are you overreacting, sis?" Jenna asked, rubbing her head in order to reduce the thumping pain.

"Oh, I see. Am I overreacting? Then tell me what you two just did now. I want to know!"

Stanley became mute for a second, unable to part his lips to say something. Then shrugged as if he didn't care about what he would spew out in the next second. 

"I'm making love to your sister, is that not clear enough? I'm not cheating. You are barren. I need a—"

"---baby," Janna completed the sentence. She stood up and returned to the bed, acting so casually. "You look so pale, sis. Are you ok?"

Zoe didn't answer Jenna; she clenched the house key in her hands, flung it towards Jenna, and hit her head one more time.

"After what I have done for you, Stanley? You turned out to be an ungrateful bastard!" Zeo roared, feeling more tears pour from her eyes, staining her makeup.

"You are my wife; if you don't support me, who will?" Stanley questioned, walking towards Zoe with an attempt to give her a hug.

She pushed her husband away. 

"You slimy old deadbeat husband. I work tirelessly to make sure I put food on the table for you and so many other things I supported you with. This is how you intend to pay me back?"

"You didn't mention the most important thing you have refused to give me," Stanley said, focusing on what she couldn't provide. 

"I haven't been able to give you a baby, but that shouldn't be the reason why you should hurt me this way."

"Yeah! You owe me this much," Stanley replied without any remorse. "You can't give me a child and I've waited 3 years for it. You've failed as a wife and as a woman. I will fuck whoever I want," he declared. 

"Sis, you can just work hard while I help you make babies for your husband. Sounds fair, right?" Jenna added. 

Zoe was so speechless that she didn't know what to say or do.

She froze, still trying to process what was happening right now.

She was the one who worked tirelessly for both his family and her sister who hasn't found a job since she graduated 

Yet, they cheated on her so casually in return.

Zoe darted her eyes between them in shock, unable to believe what she'd just heard. "I did everything for you. I became the sole breadwinner for this family so you could take your time to search for a job, and this is the way you repay me."

"Come on, you are just doing your job to compensate for your inability to get pregnant," Stanley defended. 

"I am a healthy man with a good body and a big dick; I make love to you with my big dick. Don't you enjoy it? You told me that was the reason you fell in love with me during our courtship."

"He's right. Stanley is so big down there, so he is my kind of man. I have had a crush on him since you two got married."

"GO LOOK FOR YOUR OWN HUSBAND YOU BITCH!" Zoe cursed at Jenna. She wanted to drench them in gasoline and burn them both, but she needed to stay calm at that moment.

"You shouldn't divorce your husband, I know you might be considering that. We could share him," Jenna said, rolling her eyes.

Zoe gritted her teeth in silence. She realized that she was being gaslited here.

They acted as if this whole thing was common, and Zoe was the crazy one for not accepting it.

Then Zoe darted her eyes at her little sister. She felt a terrible headache as she was faced with her sister on their matrimonial bed.

She cared for Jenna.

She knew that Jenna was the one who suffered the most after a car accident that claimed the lives of their parents four years ago. Jenna was twenty-years old while Zoe was twenty-three years old at that time.

Jenna cried every day and night. It affected her more because she was in that car but got out before it exploded. She was traumatized.

Zoe was left feeling helpless not knowing what to do for Jenna to stop feeling traumatized after their parents were buried.

Hence, she told Jenna to follow her to Wimland. 

Zoe isn't earning enough to get an apartment for Jenna, and she was still in shock from the accident to live alone.

She was allowed to live with Zoe and Stanley in their apartment. She helped with the laundry and cooking while Zoe was away to work. Doing that until she gets a job. After all, she was a graduate.

Which turned out to be a mistake.

'Could it be that Stanley had been sleeping with Jenna when I was away to work?'

Maybe I cared too much for her, Zoe thought. Maybe everything I did to make her happy only ended up ruining my marriage.

There was a moment of doubt in Zoe's heart. She stared speechlessly at Jenna.

"You are going to scold me now? Geez, sis, don't act like a crazy bitch, will you? This is not a big deal, you know?"

Zoe choked up her tears when she heard that. "You are going to regret this, you ungrateful bitch!" She yelled at Jenna.

She turned around to the front door. She could feel the eyes of those fools staring at her back, probably waiting for her to fall and break down in tears.

But she didn't look back and kept on walking.
