"What? Sis, after two years of marriage, that man hasn't earned a single penny?"
"Hah? He's still jobless. Does he only know how to play games while you support him?"
"I didn't bring you here to talk about that trash. I'm saying this because I don't know why you would marry him!"
White City.
It was a café where people came and went.
Two sisters, who looked like two peas in a pod, were sitting opposite each other.
Because they were so similar, and the stunning beauty of their appearance was shocking, they had already attracted the attention of many wandering eyes in the place.
The one making all the fuss was the younger sister, Madison Ford. She had just turned eighteen not long ago, but at the moment, she was frowning quite heavily.
Her older sister, Kate Ford, was four years older. She was twenty-two this year.
And even though the two sisters looked almost identical, their personalities were very different.
"Maddie, I forbid you to say things like this about Charlie Pace. In my opinion, he's a very good man."
Kate was a little annoyed.
Even if she was her sister, she shouldn't be bad-mouthing her husband like that.
Madison just buried her head in her palms. She was truly at a loss for words.
When her sister married that man, she was the one who had to speak up. She was clearly being taken advantage of. It was as if she had been auctioned off, but she was also the one who had to count the money.
How could Madison's sister be so foolish and amusing at the same time!
"Alright, you like to claim how good he is, so tell me, what are his strengths?"
"Charlie is tall and handsome. He's like a prince from a fairy tale."
"Even if he's handsome, you shouldn't be his nanny!"
"Well… Charlie is very good at video games. Every time I team up with him, I can win without lifting a finger."
As Kate spoke, her delicate face couldn't hide the blooming smile. It was clear she felt proud.
On the other hand, Madison was speechless.
That's it?
He's handsome?
He's good at video games?
Nothing else?
Nothing more, at all?
"Oh, my dear little sister. I'm younger than you, but even I know starting a family is a huge deal in life."
"You've found a man who is completely—"
"—useless. You'll lose both your youth and money. It's only a matter of time before you lose both."
After saying this, Madison would not let her sister stay to be hurt by the specter of a man any longer.
Divorce. She had to convince her older sister to divorce him!
Madison asked mockingly, "Sis, you're not going to have a child with that man, are you?"
Kate shook her head.
"Are you pregnant?"
Kate, blushing, answered, "No… not yet."
She and Charlie slept separately. They were married, but they hadn't had sex yet.
When Madison heard this, she was stunned.
They had been married for two years.
They didn't have a baby. Not even a single pregnancy.
"He's shooting blanks?"
Not only was he useless, but if he couldn't even make a baby, she couldn't let her sister suffer like this any longer.
No, she absolutely could not let her sister go on like this.
Madison made a decision.
"Sis, if Mom hadn't tried to force you to marry James Connagher, you wouldn't have had to get married in such a hurry."
"You can still walk away. You don't have a child yet. Listen to my advice, okay? You have to divorce him."
"Just listen to me. A man like this isn't worthy of you."
Kate suddenly got angry and said, "Stop it, Madison! If you keep talking like this, I… I will sever what little sisterly affection we have left."
Madison didn't understand. "Sis, why are you doing this? This man doesn't have a car—"
"—hasn't given you back a single penny."
In the coffee shop.
After all the eavesdropping men heard this, they froze. No car, no house, no money. How could a man with nothing marry a woman like that?
She was a beautiful goddess.
The goddess was more like a loving mother, taking care of him after marriage.
That man was nothing but a leech.
"I could do this."
"Plus, I'm stronger than him. I could make that goddess pregnant. I might even give her eight or nine children."
Madison included; everyone was saddened to hear this.
But then, suddenly, Kate's phone rang. The call had a man's voice.
"I'm out of money."
"Right now." Kate said carefully, then asked, "Are you hungry? I can go home and make you some food."
"Yes, I'm hungry."
"Okay. I'll go home now and make you food."
After that, Kate picked up her bag and said to Madison, "I'm going home to make food for your brother-in-law."
Madison's blood pressure shot through the roof.
From that simple conversation, she felt as though her older sister hadn't found herself a husband. It was more like she was raising a child.
He didn't go to work, yet he freely spent her older sister's money. He treated Kate like a caretaker.
Madison couldn't believe there was another sister out there who could be so foolish.
Madison despised those who never improved themselves or their situation.
She thought she needed to meet this brother-in-law herself.
If she couldn't fix that man through her sister, she had to go meet the man directly.
Even as the younger sister, she felt she had to protect her older sister.
So, Madison stood up and firmly said, "Sis! I'm going home with you."
After the sisters left.
The café erupted with the sound of people crying out.
"Damn it! Where can I find a wife like that?"
"Waa! Waa! Waa! I want to be a big baby, supported by a woman like that."
"Me too! I'll wait online for a woman like that."
"Stop saying things like that! If I were like that, I'd be happy to be okay with it."
Cherry Blossom Community.
After Charlie received the money from Kate, he immediately spent it on his favorite game. He hurriedly bought a new skin for League of Legends.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Your Leech Meter has increased by one hundred. Your total has reached one hundred thousand. You have completed the trial. The system is binding to you.]
[Three.]
[Two.]
[One.]
[Super Counterattack System bound.]
[Congratulations, Host! You are the recipient of the grand prize.]
[Powerful reward package opened. Congratulations! Host has received one hundred percent cash back, and you have received one hundred million dollars.]
[Secret reward has been triggered. Congratulations, you will receive a customized version of the Maserati MC12.]
[Your reward is on its way.]
[P.S.: Every reward from the system is real. No tricks here.]
A robotic voice sounded in his head.
Charlie sighed.
Two years later, the system's trial mission was finally complete.
Two years ago.
Charlie had just broken up with his girlfriend. He came out of a cyber cafe at night and passed by the post office. That's where he met the most beautiful goddess.
That beautiful goddess was none other than Kate.
Kate was crying, and she immediately asked him if he wanted to get married.
Charlie thought she was joking, and he played along by saying yes.
Later, they actually got married.
They received the marriage certificate, and that's when the system fell from the sky.
But it was a trial. The trial was to see if he could gain one hundred thousand leech points, and he had to reach that amount within a set time.
Anything that involved him being supported meant he could gain leech points.
So, Charlie had no choice but to do this. He had to let himself be supported.
For the past two years, Kate never once complained to him. She had taken care of him extremely well without any doubt, which actually made Charlie feel somewhat bad about it all.
So, at the very least, he made sure not to do any extra poor things that might upset Kate.
But now, after so long, on this day, the trial was finally over. The system was there, and now, he could start his counterattack.
He could not be a leech for another day. For a wife like Kate, he would spend the rest of his life taking care of her as well as he possibly could.
[You can now go and pick it up.]
He closed the system's menu.
Charlie then went downstairs to pick up the car.
