They had never neglected Jane in terms of basic needs, such as food or clothes. But whenever her parents looked at the four pairs of twins, they had always called them 'babies' and told them how beautiful and good-looking they were. However, when they looked at Jane, it was almost as though they were looking at a stranger. She never received a word of compliment from them. Sometimes, Jane would cling onto her father's feet and look up at the man with hope, hoping that he would pick her up, carry her in his arms and kiss her. But her father had only responded impatiently with, "Go play on your own!"Jane would often hide at the corner by herself and watch her siblings. Every one of them had a partner who wore the same clothes as one another. They were all beautiful and cheerful, asking for attention from their parents whenever they felt like it. Jane couldn't be more envious. Night after night, she would cry until her pillow was soaked in tears. In order to earn her parents' love, Jane

Her father-in-law and mother-in-law cursed at Jane in utter contempt for causing the death of their oldest sons. On the other hand, Ben's devious eyes scanned his sister-in-law from head to toe before he went to his parents and proposed to marry Jane. Naturally, his parents agreed. They bought this woman so there was nothing wrong about making the most of it! Though Ben was disabled, deep down he was a vicious beast who tortured Jane mercilessly. Jane, who had been imprisoned in the basement for almost five years at that point had already grown numb. The Madden Family eventually decided to let her out of the basement to marry Ben, seeing that she remained silent as though she had lost her mind most of the time. However, Ben's never-ceasing violence continued, beating Jane to the brink of death every single time. She never cried or begged for mercy. All she wanted was to die. Such days went by until the year she turned twenty-six.The cranes owned by Ben's family went into accidents and

"She has suffered from long-term malnutrition. Her skin is pale and because of malnutrition and lack of exposure to sunlight, her bones are actually underdeveloped, about five years younger than her actual age. Her skin was pale and tender to the touch, but there were multiple injuries on her body. I suspect that she has been abused for years,” said the doctor. Alex paused for a moment before lowering his voice. "Just fix her, we will talk about the rest once she heals.""Understood!" The doctor responded hurriedly.Jane remained under medical care in the hospital for an entire week and all costs were covered by Alex. The medical charge itself was not much, considering that most of her injuries were minor. However, Alex had to spend a ton on supplements. He also took the time to look into Jane's past for the past week. It was hard for him to believe that something like this could happen in the modern world.Jane smiled sadly from her sick bed. "The world is huge and filled with wonder

"Yes," she replied, tears welling in her eyes. "They took me for a paternity test."Alex listened to her silently."When we got older," Jane continued, as though she couldn't stop after starting to talk about the past, "there were more and more things that they had to spend on. My parents' business was just not making ends meet, so they sold the flat in order to send my siblings to school, but not me. I had to follow them back to their homeland, and they sold me off to a fool for two millions! I was imprisoned for four whole years. Four years without so much as seeing the sun. Do you know why I'm this pale? It's not like I'm this way because I did a lot of skincare, it's because I lived in the basement for four years without coming out at all. I cried, I shouted, but no one wanted to help because they think that we are legally married. Do you know how hopeless I felt? The fool died after that, but then that cripple brought me back to Kidon City. He gambled away all our money. That day

She felt a sting in her heart when she heard what Alex had to say, and it hurt horribly, but Jane forced a smile. "Okay, whatever you say, let's just go with the implant."That day, Alex took her to get the subdermal contraceptive implants, and treated her with more care from that point onward. He took care of Jane’s family by sending some to prison and let some face certain punishment in accordance with law. He even took Jane back to the Sheen Family and made her parents sign an official declaration that they no longer had any relation with their daughter.When they were done, Jane left without turning back, and her parents and siblings were all frozen in place. She was already a few steps away from them when her mother shouted, "Stupid Jane, are you abandoning your Mommy and Daddy?"Tears streamed down Jane's cheek. She took some time to stabilise herself before turning around to look at her parents with an eerily calm expression. "Stupid Jane is dead."Both her parents were instantl
