After failing to win over three guys, the system informed me that I could return to my original world by dying.So, I happily ordered a carb-loaded feast in a dim basement. After I finished it, I grabbed a rope, ready to hang myself.But just as I was about to put my head in the noose, I saw a stream of comments flashing before my eyes.[Sis, no! Your brother is only acting this way toward you because he feels indebted to your adoptive sister. You're the one he truly loves!][Yeah, your fiancé is the same. He's only doing this because your adoptive sister once saved him. The truth is, it breaks his heart every time he hurts you!][Your childhood sweetheart only feels guilty towards your adoptive sister. Sis, don't give up! Don't commit suicide. They'll all go crazy if you die!]...I was standing on the stool when these strange comments suddenly appeared.After reading them, I just found it incredibly laughable.For over twenty years, I had tried to get the love of this world's three main guys, pouring all my heart and soul into it. Yet, because the adoptive sister once faked a suicide attempt, they relentlessly tormented me, kicked me out to a dark, sunless apartment, and saddled me with huge debts.

Sis, please understand them. After the fiancé and adoptive sister have their wedding, they'll have completely repaid the debt!]The next second, the basement's rickety door was slammed open.My brother, Jason, pulled me down, a flash of panic in his eyes.I crashed to the ground. Too bad, I didn't get to see Mom and Dad."Sarah, why the hell are you faking a suicide? Amber has depression because of you. She's just having a wedding with Ethan, it's not like they're really getting married. Who are you trying to get sympathy from?""Do you think anyone will pity you if you kill yourself? It just disgusts me."Looking at his familiar face, which now seemed to hate me, my heart ached numbly.Jason was the family's bastard son. When he first came to my house, everyone hated him. He was often bullied at school.I was the first to hold his hand, telling him that he was good.I shared everything with him. He loved piano, and I argued with the elders, managing to get him a chance to study under a master.He wanted a rare, out-of-print sheet music, and when I found it, it was in pieces.I spent several days and nights piecing it back together for him, even ruining my eyes in the process.He used to carry me on his back, saying he'd be good to ...
