It was because my younger sister, the family's prodigy jewelry designer, couldn't come up with a single design after I left.

Then it happened: a hot tear hit my neck. His voice cracked, raw and desperate

He responded by shoving me onto the bed, his eyes bloodshot. "Today's our third wedding anniversary, Madeline! Why do you only seem interested in spending time with him instead of me?"
