I feel like I need more. How much money does it cost to pay a mangaka per chapter?

Lowlightt yep the part of the older sister's act of bitching could use a few more pages to build up the tension, but the plot was packed nicely in a way that the twist and climax can be easily digested by the reader in one read, and the revelation of the sister had to endured the act for 3 years made up for it.

yes i agree the plot wasn't as awesome and seem rushed, but for it was a oneshot, the light plot was seem just right, maybe because the author intended for this story to be a standalone, and not aiming for serialization. the reason i think of that was because everything was just in the perfect balance, satisfying the reader in just one chapter that the ending of the oneshot seem to be the the perfect ending of the plot. everything was there, and nothing more should be added.

as you said, for a series, it will be just meh. but for a oneshot, this is a real good reading.

It was ok, but the story line felt very rushed. Could have used more pages building up the sister into a more unlikeable person before the switcheru. Also all of the bitch scenes felt very forced, yes I understand shes acting like a bitch but as the story says she has to make everyone believe shes a bitch and her scenes don't really sell it as much. So over all its ok but not that great, as well besides how would you serialize this?

Follow the wolf guy?
Follow the sisters whose story ended?
Make it a series of morality tales?

None of those seem very appealing so I can see quite well why this is only a one shot.
