My older brother calls me"sweetheart"and sends me money. His fiancée, however, thought I was his mistress. She rallied her relatives and stormed into the newly renovated house I had meticulously designed.
"Young girl, acting as a mistress? I'll teach you a lesson your parents should have taught you." "I'll expose your actions on your school's forum. Let your teachers and classmates see what kind of girl you are—one who only climbs into men's beds."
They vandalized the new house and tore my clothes.

They hung my student ID around my neck and took humiliating photos.
When my brother arrived,his eyes were bloodshot.
"What's your problem? Got nothing better to do than bully my sister?"
...
Final exam week arrived, and I brought a stack of textbooks to my brother's new house, hoping to study in peace.
I had barely opened my textbook for a few minutes when there was a loud knock on the door.

Assuming it was the potted plants I'd ordered, I opened the door without a second thought.
"Look,everyone.The truth about Henry's mistress is finally out"a short girl with heavy makeup held a selfie stick and a phone on it almost poked my face as soon as the door opened.
Behind her was a crowd.
"Who are you? Did you get the wrong address?"I frowned.

Before I could finish, I was pushed into the house by the group.
"So this is the kept woman that Eric keeps outside.She's not even that good-looking,"a group of women sized me up with ill intentions,making me very uncomfortable and causing a sense of unease to well up in my heart.
"Why are you breaking into a private residence?Please leave immediately,"I said anxiously and tried to grab my phone.But the tall woman with wavy hair, who was leading the group, snatched it away.
"Think you can call for help?Not a chance"she spat, her eyes glaring at me with pure malice. "Acting as a mistress and stealing my fiancé?I'll show you a thing or two today."
Before I could figure out what the mistress and fiancé were about,I was struck across the face..
"Look at her,everyone.See how innocent this mistress is pretending to be? Just look at her, and you can tell what kind of women men fall for," the woman who slapped me sneered, rubbing her hand.."Quit the act. You don’t know Henry? You’re not fucking my fiancé?"
Henry is my brother.But what's this"mistress"thing?I've always used the money my mother left me for my expenses.
"I know Henry.I'm his sister,"I declared, my anger flaring—I'd never been slapped before."Now that you know Henry's my brother,get out of my house immediately."
"You shameless hussy.You young girls are experts at feigning sibling relationships.I spit on that,"the woman maliciously pinched the cheek that she had slapped.I was in so much pain that tears welled up in my eyes,but I couldn't push her hand away.
"Amanda,look at this house.It's so big and magnificent.Henry must be really generous to this little vixen,"Amanda?A name flashed in my mind.I pushed her hand away with all my strength and covered my cheek.
"Are you Amanda?My brother's girlfriend?"
Upon hearing my words,the expressions of the group of people became even angrier.
"She knows she's a mistress and still wants to be one.Friends,this is really beyond the pale.Take a good look at this shameless girl,"she held my phone in front of me again.I realized she was live-streaming. In a surge of anger, I swiped her phone to the ground.
"Take your phone away.I'm not a mistress.Sister Amanda..."
Before I could finish my words,the live streaming blogger kicked me in the stomach.I stumbled and bent over in pain.
"I'm Henry's sister,his own flesh and blood,"I gritted out through the pain, clutching my stomach.
Everyone present was stunned for a moment and turned to Amanda in unison.
"Does Henry have a sister?"
Amanda replied with an ugly expression on her face,"Yes,he does have a sister."
"Could we have made a mistake?If wej really hit Henry's sister,it'll be terrible..."
murmurs of doubt began to spread.
"She's lying.She's not Henry's sister at all."
