"Jemima, we can help you, but you must participate in this variety show and be the control group for Merry! Otherwise, you will watch the Walter Family go bankrupt and wait for your family to be destroyed."
At my birthday party, I begged Zack and Samuel to help my family through the difficulties. Just like my family helped their family back then. But Zack said those words coldly and although Samuel didn't say anything, his cold eyes had acquiesced.
I had a relationship with them for 25 years. They once said that I was someone they could protect with their lives. But since Merry debuted as my assistant, they had regarded Merry as the person at the top of their hearts. Even though Merry hurt me many times, they still favored Merry.
Now they were using my family to force me to be the control group for Merry. To put it bluntly, they just wanted Merry to step on me to get to the top. I loved my acting career, so I wouldn’t give in.
So I called the man I had hurt, "Jason? Are you still willing to marry me? If you are, then accompany me to participate in a variety show."
The variety show would be recorded for seven days and this was the deadline for me to leave Zack and Samuel.

"Jemima, we can help you, but you must participate in this variety show to be the control group of Merry! Otherwise, you will watch the Walter Family go bankrupt and wait for the family to be broken up," Zack said coldly.
Samuel didn't say anything, but he had acquiesced.
Then, they picked up food for Merry with their eyes full of pampering.
Merry didn't eat, but looked at me with tears in her eyes and said, "Jemima, are you still unwilling to forgive me?"
I took a deep breath. I couldn't pretend to be like her, but I didn't want to say a word to her.
Merry poured a glass of wine, walked in front of me, knelt in front of me and raised the glass and said, "Jemima, please forgive me. Drink this glass of wine, we will still be sisters in the future, okay?"
"I am allergic to alcohol." I shook my head and planned to leave.
Because I could see that Zack and Samuel would not help me. They seemed to have forgotten that it was my family that dealt with them when their two families were on the verge of bankruptcy. Since they were ungrateful, I would leave and stay away them.
But Zack suddenly helped Merry up, pointed at me and said, "Jemima, Merry is so humble now, what are you pretending to be, can't you be more generous?"
Samuel walked to the other side of me, suddenly pinched my cheek and then poured the wine into my mouth.
"We are too good to you, so you are so ignorant!" Samuel said coldly.
I wanted to say something, but I couldn't speak. Because I was really allergic to alcohol.
In the past, no matter what I ate or drank, they would be very careful and cautious to repeatedly confirm whether there was alcohol. But now, they were forcing me to drink.
Samuel threw me away and I fell to the ground with my whole body weak.
Zack sneered, "Do you know how to pretend to be weak now?"
Samuel pulled Merry up and said, "Don't worry about her, let her think about what she did wrong!"
What was wrong? If there was a mistake, it was that when their two families were on the verge of bankruptcy, I shouldn't have asked my parents to help them.
At that time, my father said that these two families were targeted by the industry because they were too ruthless and didn't want to wade into the muddy water.
