Content:

My younger sister, Angela Schrute, got married at 20. By 21, she already had a child.

I'm Elizabeth Schrute, 27 years old, and still unmarried.

Over the years, I've brought home a few boyfriends. But every time the subject of marriage comes up, my father, Michael Scrute, will take them into his study.

I don't know what he said to them. But whenever they come out of that room, they will turn cold and frightening. It's like their hands are itching to wrap around my throat and squeeze the life out of me.

My latest boyfriend thinks Dad is being unreasonable… until he follows him into the study.

When he emerges, his eyes burn with rage. He breaks up with me on the spot and slaps me. Twice.

I still can't figure it out. What is it that drives each of them away? And what secret is hiding in Dad's study?
Chapter 1
"You really are a bitch, aren't you? Aren't you disgusted with yourself? Next time, I should just let one of your boyfriends kill you. Maybe then you'll finally learn your lesson."
After my boyfriend stormed off, Dad glared at me menacingly and began cursing.
The truth was, over the years, I had five boyfriends. Without exception, every single relationship had ended in an ugly breakup.
Before they turned cruel and violent toward me, every one of them had stepped into Dad's study. As much as I didn't want to believe that people could change so quickly, the facts spoke for themselves.
I frowned at Dad, hoping to hear even a single word of apology. But instead, he looked at me as if he wished he could tear me apart.
He even regretted that my boyfriend had spared me instead of strangling me to death.
Dad had always favored my younger sister, Angela, and never seemed to care about me.
When I was young and wanted to date, he had forced me to break up immediately. But when Angela turned 20, the legal age for marriage, he let her plan her wedding right away.
Why was it so different for us?
Angela's husband, Lawrence Earlhart, treated her with love and devotion. He did so every day after moving into our house following the wedding.
Watching their life together, I couldn't help but envy her for getting to stay with the man she loved.
