The Mother-in-Law Who Insisted on Suffering Was Carried to Success by Her Confident Daughter-in-Law

My mom taught me from a young age that I should always know my own worth.

At school, my roommate, who copied everything I did, deliberately bought the same clothes as me. She even asked if they made her look fat.

I just shook my head. "No idea. My figure is gorgeous, anyway."

After I started working, a male colleague pursued me, so I casually told him I was already seeing someone.

He looked at me with anguish and asked if I'd consider him if we broke up.

I gave a cold laugh. "I guess you don't love me enough. Otherwise, why aren't you offering to be my side piece?"

Because I knew my worth, they all talked behind my back, saying I had no idea who I was and should take a good look at myself.

Then one day, my blind date heard about my little quirk and immediately decided to take me home to meet his parents for the New Year.

"My mom loves making herself suffer for no reason. She keeps saying she doesn't deserve anything, and it's driving me crazy."

"If you can help her get rid of this awful habit, I'll give you anything you want."

That was a new one. I thumped my chest. "Don't worry, leave it to me."
