When my husband's father, Vincent Todd, arrived at our home, he not only tried to sabotage my job but also laid down a hundred and one rules for me to follow.

He insisted that everything should revolve around serving my husband and them and that I must obey every command from the men in the house without question.

He believed that a woman's place was not in the workforce but at home, her duty to be the perfect housewife.

I once reached out to his wife, Amanda Todd, for help. She was a hypocrite, coaxing me to comply.

"Megan, Vincent is right. No woman can work outside and neglect her household duties."

I confided in my husband, but he only shrugged it off, doing nothing to help.

"Oh, honey, Dad's intentions are all for the good of the family."

With Vincent's increasing cruelty, Amanda's encouragement, and my husband's indifference, I fell into depression and confusion, which eventually led to a car accident that took my life.

When I was given a second chance, I decided to be the "picture-perfect", "obedient" woman.

This time, I took the initiative to show Vincent my allegiance.

"You're absolutely right! A woman should stay at home, take care of you and Amanda, and be a loving wife to my husband!"
