Sister's Love for Cheater
Chapter 3
In my previous life, I didn't leave this early.
When Douglas came home, I was still in the bedroom, trying to reason with Salem. Back then, he never mentioned anything about adding me on WhatsApp. But now, behind Salem's back, he's pulling this stunt. Sometimes, a man's lie is as flimsy as a soap bubble—one prick and it bursts. His intentions are just as clear.
I let out a dry laugh. "There's really no need."
He insisted, "But I'm your brother-in-law. Isn't it natural for us to connect?"
"There's really no need."
I refused again, quickly got into my car, and drove home.
As soon as I arrived, Salem called. "Liana, I just saw you from the balcony. You and Doug were talking for quite a while. What was that about?"
A few words count as chatting for ages?
I took a deep breath and decided to fib. "Oh, sis, I was just about to tell you! Doug is so good to you! He went out of his way to ask how you're doing today. He really cares about you!"
Salem's voice lifted with happiness, "Really? And what did you tell him?"
"Of course, I told him the truth—that you're doing great, and you two are as loving and happy as ever!"
Each word I spoke was followed by a silent curse in my head.
Salem was pleased with the praise. "Liana, you're the best!"
I forced a smile and made a bit more small talk before finally hanging up.
No sooner had I finished with her than my mom reached out.
"Liana, you saw your sister today, right? How's she doing?"
The familiarity of her words sent a chill down my spine.
In my previous life, after I died, Salem had revealed everything to our parents. And they said nothing, only urging Salem and Douglas to live their lives well.
After I was buried, they stood by my grave and said, "Liana, we've already lost you. We can't afford to lose your sister, too. You understand, right?
"The arguments between you sisters—it was just a moment of rashness on her part. You got caught up in their marriage issues, so it's understandable she was upset with you.
"Besides, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have known how much your sister was actually struggling..."
