My billionaire parents worried that I would be in danger if I stayed with them while I was young, so they ignored my cries and sent me to an orphanage.
They said they would come get me once things had settled down.
There, I had to bark like a dog and fight dogs for food.
Every day, I was beaten with an electric baton.
When I turned eighteen, my parents came to take me home, bringing their adopted son along.
I thought my life would get better once I escaped the orphanage.
I never imagined that going home would be the start of a nightmare.
My parents took the guilt they felt toward me and redirected it toward their adopted son, demanding that I give in to him at every turn.
“We adopted him to protect you. He suffered in your place! If it weren’t for him, do you think you’d have the peaceful life you have now?”
Later, my adopted brother and I were kidnapped and taken to the seaside.
My parents and fiancée chose him without hesitation, but he cried as he jumped into the sea.
“I’m giving back the place I took from him all these years!”
My parents brought me home, and my fiancée and I held our wedding.
I thought my life would return to normal, but my wife claimed she didn’t want a child to interfere with her work.
She made me undergo IVF, then dragged me onto the operating table and had me sterilized.
But after our child was born, they dragged me to my adopted brother’s grave.
They made me kowtow over a thousand times, then killed the only child I would ever have right in front of me.
They roared at me:
“When Xiao Xuan was seven, those villains caused him to have a car accident. He suffered in your place. You owed him your life!”
“Now you can pay him back with two lives, including that little monster of yours!”
I was so devastated that I spat blood.
To this day, I still don’t understand. He was the one who stole my life, so why did everyone...
