Rebirth: My Sister Chose Our Penniless Mother, Not Knowing She Was a Monster Chapter 1

When our parents divorced, my sister chose to live with our wealthy father.

I moved into my mom’s cramped rental apartment.

Years later, my dad squandered the family fortune on booze, women, and gambling.

Meanwhile, my mom started an influencer agency and became a famous female entrepreneur.

My sister’s life was turned upside down, and she came to me crying for help.

But when I wasn't looking, she poisoned my drink.

"We have the same parents! Why do you get to live so well while I'm homeless on the streets?!"

"It's my turn to live the good life!"

When I opened my eyes again, we were back on the day of the divorce.

This time, she beat me to it and threw her arms around our mom: "I want to live with Mom! I don't care how hard it gets, I'm willing to endure it."

But she didn't know... Mom was far more terrifying than Dad.

My sister, Chloe, always had a sweet mouth and knew exactly how to charm people. She was always the favorite.

Because of this, when our parents decided to divorce, they asked her first who she wanted to live with.

Dad, Richard Sterling, was a trust-fund baby. His family was incredibly wealthy.

Mom was a stay-at-home wife. After the divorce, she’d have nothing and would have to scrape by to survive.

So, without a second thought, Chloe obediently threw her arms around Dad.

"I love Daddy the most! I can't live without you. I want to grow up with you."

Dad beamed with joy, lifting Chloe high into the air.

"Good girl! You'll stay with Daddy and be a little princess for the rest of your life!"

Chloe smiled sweetly.

In a blind spot where our parents couldn't see, she shot me a smug, triumphant glance.

Yes, she had been like this since we were little.

Always trying to one-up me.

As long as she could "defeat" me, she was perfectly willing to do things that didn't even benefit her.

Dad and Chloe laughed happily together.

Mom stood off to the side, looking heartbroken and gloomy.

I stayed silent for a moment, then walked over and took Mom's hand.

"Mom, I'm willing to live with you."

She gave me a long, deep look, but said nothing.
