“Reborn twelve times, I discovered I am born cursed. As long as I live, my three brothers will die unnatural deaths. Big Brother called me a jinx, Second Brother tore my paintings and stepped on them, Third Brother publicly announced he only recognized the adopted daughter as his sister. “”Shouldn’t have brought you back in the first place! What else can you do besides causing trouble!”” The moment Big Brother’s slap fell, that out-of-control Semi-truck also arrived as promised. I used all my strength to push him away, letting the wheels crush my legs, blood splashing all over him. “”Brother, now you don’t owe me, and I don’t owe you guys either.”” After severe pain came familiar dizziness, I thought I would start over again. But this time, I heard Big Brother’s heart-wrenching cry. Strange, in this life, why didn’t my soul return to the morning, but floated in mid-air? That Grim Reaper uncle responsible for collecting bodies looked at me helplessly: “”Penelope, you died too many times, this time the system has a bug, they seem to be able to hear your inner voice.”” … Chapter 1 My soul floated lightly in mid-air. Looking down at that body crushed into pulp by the semi-truck. On the ground, Big Brother Sebastian knelt in a pool of blood. Deadly hugging my half severed limb, now emitting a howl. “”Ambulance! Call an ambulance! Whoever dares to take photos I’ll kill him!”” The Grim Reaper uncle floated to my side, black suit sharp. Holding an iPad in hand crazy clicking the screen. His brows locked tight, cursed a sentence: “”Damn it, server lag, how did it connect your brain waves to his brain?”” I ignored the Reaper, floated closer to Sebastian. Looking at Big Brother’s face covered in snot and tears, my heart had no fluctuation. I couldn’t help roasting in my heart: [Crying what funeral, I’m not even cold yet, this acting skill not going to Hollywood is a pity. If you didn’t hesitate with that slap just now, I should be able to reincarnate by now.] Big Brother’s howling stopped abruptly. He fiercely looked up, eyes covered with red bloodshot dead staring at air, veins on neck bursting out. He trembled and asked: “”Penelope? Is it you? Where are you?”” Big Brother grabbed around crazily. Blood-stained hands waved through my soul, bringing up a burst of cold wind. Doctors and nurses around scared dare not step forward. Only I floated above his head watching coldly. I remembered previous lives, that is the ninth reincarnation. That day I had a high fever of 104 degrees, begged him send me to hospital. He sat on sofa trimming cigar, didn’t even lift head, coldly said: “”Don’t play dead, Bella wants to eat Macarons from downtown, go buy.”” I died on the way to buy Macarons. [Sebastian, stop pretending deep affection, quite disgusting.] I looked at his crazy look, only felt ironic. [My legs are what you hate most, you always dislike me walking loud. Now good, they crushed into meat mud, shouldn’t you be happy? After all I can never again wear cheap sneakers step on your Persian carpet.] Big Brother whole body violently trembled. He terrified covered ears. But my voice needs no medium. It exploded directly in his brain pulp. “”I don’t dislike! Brother doesn’t dislike!”” He started crazy slapping his own face. Slap slap sound, that strength much harder than usually hitting me, cheek instantly swollen. “”Penelope you come out! Brother wrong! You don’t scare Brother!”” He incoherent roared at air, like a schizophrenic madman. I looked funny, turned head ask Grim Reaper uncle: [He is crazy? Or your Underworld now popular this kind of hospice care service? Let people see people go crazy before die, quite stress relieving.] Ambulance finally want take my corpse away. Several medical staff want pull him away. Big Brother dead alive not willing let go. Throat emit wuwu low roar. Finally was two sturdy male orderlies forcefully pry open his fingers. Click. A section of broken leg bone fell out from his arms. White forest forest, carrying bloodshot. Just right smashed on his shiny leather shoe surface. Big Brother stunned. He didn’t dislike dirty, instead careful careful picked up that section bone. Put face on it, tears snot rubbed everywhere. I sighed: [Don’t pick, dirty. Previous life didn’t you say I even bone is cheap? This is trash you personally certified, picking trash, not fit your billionaire identity.] “”Pfft…”” Big Brother spurted a mouthful fresh blood, dyed that section white bone red. He eyes rolled back, straight straight fainted at operating room door. Hand still dead clutching that section bone. Hospital corridor messy like a pot of porridge. Just when Big Brother lifted on stretcher. Second Brother Julian and Third Brother Caleb finally arrived. Second Brother wearing just awarded haute couture white suit, hair neat and shiny. He haven’t walked to front, first used handkerchief cover nose. Frowning face full of dislike looking at blood stain on ground. He didn’t ask my life death. First sentence was complain to Big Brother just pinched philtrum wake up: “”Big Brother, can you control Penelope? Bella just now at home scared heart attack almost happen, she must touch porcelain (fake accident) at this time? I have that time still want go back modify painting.”” I floated on ceiling, looking at Second Brother that aloof face, sneered once. [Here comes, classic victim blaming theory. As long as me and Bella accident same time, dead one definitely is touching porcelain, living one definitely is scared.] Big Brother originally still in trance, hearing this words, fierce bounced from stretcher. He rushed over a punch smashed on Second Brother face. Crack a sound, nose bridge bone break sound crisp pleasant to ear. Second Brother beaten dumb, whole person hit on wall. Covering nose scream: “”Big Brother you crazy? For that jinx hit me? My face!”” That resentment in my heart started churning, voice also became sharp: [Hit good, pity light a bit. Second Brother, your pair of hands can paint masterpieces handed down for generations, also can break biological sister’s fingers. Fifth reincarnation, you to force me ghostwrite, shut my right hand in door gap, that crisp sound I remember till now.] Second Brother just prepared scold back, action suddenly stiff. He terrified looked around, face instant pale: “”Who? Who is speaking?”” Grim Reaper uncle shrugged, pointed at iPad: “”Bug range expanded, full frequency broadcast.”” I continue output, staring at Second Brother that pair extremely well maintained hands: [What, can’t hear my voice? Also right, I was locked in your studio little dark room for three years, only dare make sound when let you send me meal. That painting you won gold award “”Caged Bird””, painted isn’t it me locked by you with chain? You say that is art, I think that is crime evidence.] Second Brother legs soft, knelt on ground. He looked at his own hands, eyes full of fear: “”Impossible… how you know… that is secret…”” Third Brother couldn’t watch down. He took off sunglasses and mask, pointing at Big Brother scold: “”Big Brother, you don’t be scared by some supernatural confusion! Penelope definitely not dead, hide where play god play ghost ne! She last time even secretly took my Stalker Fan photo threaten me, this woman for fame what can’t do!”” I floated to Third Brother front, blew a mouth cold air to his face. This face, really make people disgusting. [Third Brother, your fans last time pushed me down stairs, caused me concussion, didn’t you say in live stream do beautifully? Also said I was for rub your heat (clout) deliberate fell.] Third Brother only felt a stream yin cold air drill into neck, shivered a chill. I leaned to his ear: [My phone indeed has photo, but that is evidence you to abuse fans solidify fans, self let stalker fan into home. You deliberate let stalker fan harass me, then guide fans cyberbully me, say I not respect your privacy.] Third Brother like a chicken pinched neck, instant lose voice. He flustered go touch phone in pocket, fingers trembling want confirm something. I slow slow supplement: [Don’t find, that evidence I set timer send before die. Calculate time, now should already exploded on trending. Title I all named good——””Top Stream Idol For Abuse Fans, Personal Hand Send Sister To Stalker Fan Bully””. Surprise not surprise? Unexpected not unexpected?] Just then, operating room light off. Doctor pushed corpse covered white cloth out, regret shake head: “”Too tragic, simply can’t piece together, family restrain grief.”” That moment, three arrogant men simultaneous stiff. Air solidified. I looked at blood seeped out from that white cloth. Heart no a trace sadness, only a kind revenge pleasure: [Don’t look, can’t piece together. Just like back then you tore my painting, stepped broken dignity, long can’t piece together. What, just this can’t stand?] A burst rapid high heels sound broke dead silence. Bella wearing a white dress. Stumble run into corridor. Her face no makeup, appear pitiful lovable. Tears come just come, tears flow before words. She thump a sound kneel at Big Brother feet side. Hands grabbing his pant leg, cry pear blossom bring rain: “”Big Brother, all my bad, sister was to save me then… actually that car was come for me! If I not let sister go buy Macarons good le…”” Her this move retreat to advance use furnace fire pure green (perfection). If before, three brothers early hug her in arms coax. Convenient again kick me two feet, scold me not sensible let Bella sad. I floated to Grim Reaper uncle side watch play, couldn’t help applaud: [Look look, this is professional actor, Oscar owe her a Little Golden Man. Pity ah, this time script wrong. Bella, truck brake line is you use nail clipper bit by bit grind broken, I all saw.] Big Brother body fierce a shock.

Only Bella sobbing sound. Big Brother suddenly bend waist, fierce grab up Bella hand. Dead stare that pink band-aid on her index finger. His eyes like want eat people. Bella scared desperate shrink hand, eyes flash: “”Big Brother you grab hurt me! This… this is I peel fruit did! You hurt me!”” I light laugh once, voice echo in corridor: [Peel fruit? Whose family peel fruit will rub brake fluid into fingernail seam? You just before come special used high concentration nail polish remover wash hand, pity ah, that kind cheap industrial oil smell, how wash off? Second Brother nose so sensitive, to oil paint so sensitive, smell not?] Second Brother always kneel on ground shaking, hear this words, he like pricked by needle. He roll and crawl lean close Bella hand, force inhale a mouth air. Next second, his face become iron green, stomach a burst turn river overturn sea. “”Really is mechanical oil smell… mixed nail polish remover…”” Second Brother a throw away Bella, disbelief back retreat. Until hit wall: “”Bella, didn’t you say you even bottle cap can’t unscrew? How you go touch brake line?”” Bella thoroughly panic. She look these two brothers once obedient to her. Now look her like look monster. She start crazy drop tears, try use old trick: “”Second Brother you believe me! Sister that is ghost claim life! She is framing me!

Inside has a recording, is you just change finish clothes, facing mirror practice crying scene record.] Third Brother trembling hand take out my that screen sparse broken phone. He press power button, input that string simple password. A clear recording sound in dead silent corridor. That is Bella sinister and proud voice: “”As long as Penelope dead, three brothers favor all mine. This time brake fail, I see how she dodge. Even if she not die, crippled better, Big Brother will only more loathe her.”” Recording stop abruptly. Bella paralyzed on ground, face pure mask thoroughly shatter, reveal underneath hideous fear. Big Brother no any nonsense. He lift that foot wearing leather shoe, fierce kicked on this adopted daughter he pampered twenty years heart pit. “”Bang!”” Bella kicked fly two meters far. Cover chest on ground painful roll, emit a scream. I look this scene, heart no wave. I think of seventh reincarnation, she mix poison in my milk. Smile watch me seven orifices bleed. Then tell brothers I was steal drink pesticide suicide. That time no one believe me. Now truth clear, I but only feel funny. [How about it? Is this play wonderful? Fight quite lively. Pity ah, I want go reincarnate, no time watch grand finale.] Grim Reaper uncle suddenly pat my shoulder. Put iPad into briefcase. “”Penelope, time up, should go road.

A unprecedented pull feeling come, like want drag me into a huge black hole. Watching those three cry snot flow tears, regret mixed men. I suddenly feel should send them a big gift.

Suddenly received a message from my brother: [Sis, I suspect my roommate is a copycat.] I typed a question mark. Chase resentfully threw over a spliced photo, complaining: [I just bought a gray hoodie yesterday, today Julian wore the same style! [Hehe, he can copy my outfit, but can’t replicate my aura. [Sis, who do you think is more handsome?] The left side of the photo was obviously a candid shot perspective. A bit blurry, but very atmospheric. Simple gray hoodie and jeans. But matched very refreshingly. That person wore a hat, covering half his face. But the exposed high nose bridge and thin lip lines were extremely perfect, still could see he was a big handsome guy.

Everyone thought I was the Mrs. Vance, pampered in the palm of Julian Vance’s hand. But in five years of marriage, I haven’t spent a penny of Julian’s money. The Century Wedding held was sponsored by brands. Even various supplies at the wedding were gifts from partners. Until five years later, my mom was critically ill and urgently needed medical expenses. I gritted my teeth and used Julian’s bank card to pay. The next day, I received a lawyer’s letter from Julian. “Pay back the money within three days, or else, I cut off your mom’s medicine.” I forced my tears back, worked several jobs a day, even borrowed from everyone around. The night I paid back the money, I went to the hotel private room, but bumped into him pinning his former secretary against the wall, handing over a Black Card. “Hailey, where a man’s money is, his heart is.” “Hundreds of millions of assets all for you, don’t leave me okay?” I froze all over. Hailey smiled and refused. “So much money, but it’s joint property of you and Scarlett Sterling, if you give it to me like this, your wife will be unhappy.” Mentioning me, Julian sneered. “That Gold Digger, back then designed to climb into my bed and fired you, marrying her was just to help you vent a bad breath.” “Hailey, as long as you agree to marry me.” “I won’t hesitate, immediately kick that Gold Digger.” … Chapter 1 My body stiffened in place, hands and feet cold. Gold Digger. Married for five years, I basically wouldn’t ask Julian for money. Except when it was extremely difficult, I had to open my mouth to Julian. But every time. Julian would always sigh and say to me, “Company cash flow is tight, we have to be frugal.” So I listened, and believed. Could avoid, always would avoid giving him trouble. Even if really forced to use Julian’s money. Also had to return it within the deadline he set. Everyone thought I was the glorious and pampered Mrs. Vance. But no one knew after marriage I always worked as an independent woman, also responsible for the expenses of a big family. Now, just because of a medical fee. I became the Gold Digger in Julian’s mouth. Even more, that night he got drunk and we had relations, in his view was also my scheming design. Even marrying me back then, was just to vent anger for ex-secretary Hailey. Tears dropped, blown away by cold wind. I don’t remember how I walked out of the private room. I stood by the river for a long time, thought a lot, especially Hailey’s face lingering in my mind. Probably five years ago. When Julian and I just got married. I bumped into Julian and the little secretary deep kissing with the help of alcohol at the company annual party. That time I was young and couldn’t hold my temper, went up and slapped Hailey. Red eyes scolded her: “Company is not a place for you to seduce men!” “Holding someone else’s husband to kiss, are you so shameless!” That slap. Made Julian determined to fire Hailey. After calming down, he apologized to me more than once. “Scarlett, that day was just a misunderstanding.” “Colleagues all drank too much, Secretary Hailey mistook me for another man.” Clearly his lie was so lame, but I still self-deceptively believed it. After being fired from the company, Hailey was independent and strong, she refused to accept Julian’s money and compensation. Ran out to start her own business, selling goods in front of TikTok Live camera. Julian swiped five hundred orders every day, forcedly praised Hailey into a top sales anchor. Hailey knew, returned all the things back. “Don’t spend money recklessly in the future, otherwise your wife will be unhappy.” She turned and went abroad. Since then Julian acted like nothing happened, being a loving couple with me in front of people. Five years later, his company grew bigger and stronger, directly moved the headquarters abroad to Paris. In a few days, Julian was going to take me abroad to hold the relocation ceremony. When Julian came back, I returned the gathered money to him. “Not a penny less, you take it well.” “Mm.” Julian unceremoniously took it back, turned to transfer money to Hailey on phone screen. Looking up saw my face gloomy, Julian smiled, subconsciously explained. “Scarlett, don’t blame me for being stingy, I do this also to cultivate you.” “After all money in my hand is all our joint property, in the future all yours too.” I lowered my head sneering, didn’t speak. I saw Hailey wearing that luxury necklace named “Heart of the Ocean” Julian gave me last year on her neck today. After attending a grand banquet. After receiving others’ praise and flattery. After Julian gained the reputation of loving wife. It mysteriously disappeared. I searched every corner of the house, didn’t find it, now saw it on Hailey’s neck. On the way back, I had a bellyful of questions, wanted to ask Julian. But now didn’t want to say a word. Blink of an eye to the relocation ceremony in Paris. Just got off the flight, Julian took assistant hurriedly went to company first. I following behind was covered by a sack, stuffed into a strange black car. I tear-heart-crack-lung shouted Julian’s name. But he never turned back once. I was stuffed into the car. Julian excitedly tidied his attire, went to meet Hailey with a grand posture. “Hailey, look at me.” “To see you conveniently, I already moved the headquarters abroad.” Julian held her hand, deeply affectionately placed on his own face. “Those things you wanted back then I have all, what others can give you, I can give you.” Hailey wearing Chanel suit, seemed shocked by man’s deep affection, small mouth slightly open, confused looking at him. “Julian Vance, no…” She wanted to refuse, half push half accept. Man however domineeringly lowered head kissed up. Watching the scene in phone screen, my tears couldn’t help sliding down. Bias beside voice mockingly sounded. “Darling, I said your husband doesn’t love you.” “What are you doing with this kind of man? Might as well divorce and follow me.” Man took off mask on face. Revealed that familiar face. Chapter 2 Liam Quinn. My childhood sweetheart, chased me for many years before marriage. Liam is a complete Yandere (Sickly Possessive), I thought after marrying Julian, he went abroad and cut off thoughts. Didn’t expect waiting for me here. He raised hand stroked my face, action incomparably deep affection. “You look at your husband, now holding other woman in arms, a little secretary from five years ago still so unforgettable, your husband really no ambition.” “Keeping body like jade for such an unworthy man, don’t you feel aggrieved?” I teary eyed looked at the scene in phone screen. Hailey half push half accept, forcefully pushed Julian away. “Julian Vance, don’t be like this!” “Last time returning to country for business trip, in private room I already said clearly. I impossible accept you, you think about your wife Scarlett, if she knows you are so obsessed with other woman now, how sad would she be?” “I already fled abroad, you don’t pester me anymore…” Julian silently looked at her leaving back. Didn’t chase up. Just like made up determination, faintly spit out few words. “I can divorce.” Hailey froze, slowly turned back. “What did you say?” Julian low voice repeated: “I never loved Scarlett Sterling.” “Hailey, just like said last time, as long as you willing accept me, I can immediately divorce with her.” Saying he walked forward, carefully held Hailey’s hand. “And these five years we are just surface couple, I never touched her at all.” Julian didn’t tell lie. These five years, every time he got drunk, locked himself in study, venting to Hailey’s photo. To me this wife loving in front of people, he always hide as far as can. Hailey was moved, tears in eyes. “Julian, why bother? I am a secretary…” She hadn’t finished her last word, was blocked by Julian with mouth. Soon, their arms entangled together, kissing inseparable. I always calmly looked at them. Time so long that, Liam looked at me with eyes full of sympathy and panic. “Scarlett, if you sad you can cry…” I laughed, said to Liam: “Okay, I can marry you, but you have to promise me a condition——” “I want divorce, want Julian leave with nothing, let him, peel off a layer of skin.” This answer obviously made Liam satisfied. Liam let me out. He gave me three days time, let me do good handover. “Scarlett, don’t think playing any tricks, now Julian already moved company headquarters abroad, you can’t return country for a while.” He bought me favorite strawberry cake, piled full yard roses, warm hospitality me. He said as long as I willing nod, can return everything originally belong to me back. Even can help take assets under Julian name all to me. Good woman get reputation, bad woman get everything. Although I didn’t get love, that property should have right? After all I was Julian’s good wife deeply loved for five years. Can’t just bear reputation, not take benefit. I agreed to this cooperation. When went back, I just entered door saw Julian iron green face. Distance my missing already passed three days. He didn’t ask me how I passed these three days, where I went, and how came back. Just voice cold concise told me: “Trouble you caused, now need you to solve.” I then knew. Yesterday, paparazzi secretly took photos of Influencer Hailey and Julian intimate actions. Some insider added oil added vinegar on internet, talked about details of Julian cheating with his secretary. Hailey now pushed to wind mouth wave tip by cyberbullying, constantly losing followers, she anxious don’t know what to do. “Need you come out to clarify.” Julian already sat whole afternoon, just waiting me agree go attend press conference. He required me clarify couple feeling not broken, help Hailey refute rumors. I calmly looked at him, “Based on what you think I will agree?” Julian coldly lifted eyes. “Don’t forget, if not because of you, Hailey today simply wouldn’t need suffer this kind of cyberbullying.” I laughed. Five years ago, after that drunken time, they dry wood fierce fire, almost lay on one bed. Was me unintentionally took reporter best friend break in. That day matter exposed. Hailey couldn’t stay in domestic circle, for reputation, for hiding wind head, could only go abroad. Julian surface said nothing, but actually always hated me. “That day I have things, can’t go press conference.” “You can have what things?” Julian sneered, directly threw that document on my face. “As long as you clarify, help Hailey solved this crisis, company 10% shares will transfer to your name.” Seeing Share Transfer Agreement few big words, I stunned. This 10% shares. I fought for five years, didn’t succeed. My dad critically ill urgent need medical fee, I even knelt in front of Julian begged him. Let him save my dad, want me do what all willing. But that time, Julian how did ne? He dead choked my neck. “If not because you took that broken reporter, ruined Hailey reputation, her mom wouldn’t mind restless, car accident on road!” “These are all your retribution!” That time Julian, not only didn’t help my dad raise medical fee, instead instructed those doctors not save people. Now holding this share transfer agreement. Julian started second time threat. “If I remember correctly, your brother should be sent by you to this country study middle school right?” Julian eyes full of threat meaning. “If Hailey unable pass this crisis, then your brother, afraid also no school can go.” Chapter 3 He took out phone, called out a photo. Blood all brain surged to top of head, I couldn’t help slapped him a slap. “Julian Vance, are you still human?” He however coldly stared at me. “Scarlett Sterling, this slap, and those accounts before, I will add up calculate with you.” I couldn’t help bitter smile. Turns out, already passed five years, he still hates me. In front of Hailey, he is a dead Yandere. Even when Hailey hit him. He also didn’t angry, instead that night wrote in his diary: “Came before slap, is fragrance on Hailey body.” But only to me, so cold, and so vicious. Julian threatened with my brother. Half day, I showed bitter smile, spine bent down. “Okay, I agree.” “Go attend press conference.” I agreed very crisp, Julian sighed relief, satisfied looked me up and down. “As long as you settle all this, return Hailey innocence, I can consider accompany you tonight.” That high above charity tone. Made me feel stomach overturn river sea, even throat couldn’t help want dry vomit. “No need, you better go accompany your secretary.” I mocking open mouth. Brush past his shoulder, leave. Full five years, I always slept alone. Everyone thought me and Julian how loving, but actually me this wife just a decoration. This kind of days I long lived enough, so I willing make space for Hailey. Blink eye to conference site. Julian as always created loving wife persona, opened car door for me, helped me hold skirt hem. Magnesium light shone on me. Reporters swarmed. “Miss Sterling, you appear at conference site today, is heard your husband and anchor Hailey scandal ma?” “Miss Sterling, heard Anchor Hailey before was you and Mr. Julian Vance secretary, they between have ambiguous relationship, is this true false?” “Miss Sterling, your husband public give you wear green hat, how you can still so loving attend event with him ah?” … Reporters sharp words pounced face come.

Face to face took out a pregnancy test report from bag. “This is my husband’s child.” Julian fierce lift head look me, eyes meaning unclear, seem also very surprised. Hailey standing beside, lips tight purse, face pale staring me. Those reporters also one after another gossip up, scene instant boil. “Miss Sterling, are you pregnant? But how I look not too like ah?” “Main wife all come out clarify, people two feeling good ne, you guys don’t blind spread rumors…” “Looks like Miss Sterling and Mr. Julian are true love, people not know situation, don’t blind say, okay not okay?” In their words, I opened mouth: “You guys misunderstood.” I smiling pointed Hailey beside. “Pregnant person of course is our big anchor, Miss Hailey.”

Been with Xavier Sterling for seven years, there was always a gap of social status between us. Today, his mother came again, without extra pleasantries, directly pushed a photo in front of me. Xavier and my best friend Serena stood side by side, behaving intimately. Mother Sterling’s voice was calm and cruel, “Miss Luna, Serena is the ideal daughter-in-law in our hearts.” “Some gaps cannot be filled by feelings. Please leave my son.” Mind in a trance, I got into a car accident. Woke up again in the hospital, Serena stood by my bed, insisting I take the chance to test Xavier. “You just say you have Amnesia, see his performance.” I was also curious what exactly Serena wanted to do, so nodded and agreed. Xavier pushed open the ward door with a hurried look, I pretended not to know him. “You are?” Next second, Serena hooked his arm. “Silly, this is my boyfriend, you can’t recognize him?” Her hand was shaking slightly, eyes staring at Xavier full of expectation. Xavier stunned, then held her palm. He whispered: “Mn, I am Serena’s boyfriend.” I looked at them for a long while. Suddenly laughed out loud: “Then should I congratulate you guys?” Just after hearing this sentence, Xavier’s face instead sank. … Chapter 1 Sight fell on their intertwined arms, my mind was blank. One is my best friend for fifteen years. Knowing I was hit by a car, she ran until her high heel broke. The other, is my boyfriend of seven years, about to discuss marriage. He was on a business trip two thousand miles away, only three hours since my accident, he rushed back. Are they teaming up to prank me? But today is not April Fool’s Day. Just as this thought popped up, Serena tiptoed, dropped a light kiss on Xavier’s lip corner. “Xavier, I said Luna would bless us.” “You refused to tell her before, all your own blind worry.” She turned to look at me, eyes and brows full of smiles. “Luna, you will, right?” I seemed to be choked by an invisible hand, couldn’t speak. No camera in the corner, no one recording my clown-like dull expression. This is not a prank scene. Couldn’t help it, I looked at Xavier. He slightly turned his head, avoided my sight. Eyelashes blinked rapidly a few times, shutting the truth I wanted to know inside. Just last night, he used the same pair of eyes to gaze at me intently in the video call, as if in this world, he could only see me. “Luna, I fly back tomorrow night then take you home.” “This time no matter how my parents object, I must marry you.” He came back early. Promise seems not counting anymore. I pinched my palm, forcefully pulled out a smile. “You guys, when did you get together?” Throat dry, I whispered: “How come… how come I just didn’t know.” Serena revealed a sweet smile. She just about to speak, I softly interrupted: “Don’t let it be all you saying, I want to hear what your boyfriend says.” I stared dead at Xavier, fingernails pinching palm scratched out a blood mark. A burst of dull pain. He unconsciously pursed his lips: “Just end of last year.” Tone was the gentleness I was familiar with to the bone marrow. That hand I could recognize even with eyes closed, was holding someone else. “Met on a Blind Date, felt fate, so got together.” I stunned. Sterling family is a famous academic family, his parents are both renowned professors at Harvard. And me, father serving time in prison, mother remarried for many years. Just two months ago, Mother Sterling forced him with death, requiring him to go on blind dates. I had insomnia all night, proposed breakup. Wish him happiness. Xavier stood downstairs in freezing rain for a whole day. He hugged me into his arms, whole body trembling. “Luna, I only want you, we don’t break up, okay?” I raised hand to touch his face, couldn’t distinguish those wetness were tears or rain. Turns out, all fake? “Luna.” Serena interrupted my thoughts. “Actually me and Xavier are more compatible, aren’t we?” Yes. Serena’s parents are also university professors, matching door and household with Sterling family. She smiled. “You have amnesia forgot past things also doesn’t matter, now, it’s your turn to bless me.” Heart fierce suffocated. Remembered that summer high school ended, I excitedly ran to share news of dating Xavier with Serena. She stared big eyes, hand loose, water cup dropped. A crisp sound, glass shattered all over ground. “How could it be? Xavier didn’t even agree to Prom Queen’s confession, how could he…” I was too anxious pulling her away from those fragments that might cut her. Forgot to think deep, the complex emotion in her eyes. Time changes world changes. Me and her swapped identities. I drank a mouthful of water, swallowed the bitterness stuck in throat. As if swallowed, was that pile of sharp fragments back then. Just about to speak, doctor pushed door enter. Chapter 2 “Patient’s leg bone severely displaced, need surgery, who is the family member?” “Me.” Xavier’s subconscious word, made room atmosphere fall into stagnation. Serena bit teeth: “Xavier, did you hear wrong?” She squeezed out a smile: “Doctor is asking family, you are not.” “Need signature right? Give me.” She scanned me: “My this friend father in prison, mother long ran with someone.” “I should be the friend she knew longest, I sign.” Actually not only longest, also best. From I carrying broom drove away those punks blocking her for money start, we inseparable. Full fifteen years. We shared homework answers, cried or laughed for same movie. Also shared home password, clothes in closet and family matters I never told others. I had no defense against her. Didn’t expect today, have to share same man. I inexplicably felt funny, reached hand to doctor: “No need, I sign myself can.” Consent form slid across Serena’s palm. Her face not too good looking. “Doctor.” Xavier suddenly spoke. “Her amnesia, possible to cure?” My hand holding pen froze. “Patient has concussion…” Doctor just said a sentence. Serena a cry of pain: “Hiss——” Xavier’s attention, immediately hooked by her. “What’s wrong?” He bent down to look at Serena’s broken heel, frowned. “Rainy day road slippery, next time don’t wear high heels.” Concerned tone, so familiar. He picked up Serena, put her on the chair beside. Squatted down, he gently took off Serena’s shoe, used wet wipe bit by bit wiped clean mud spots on her foot. I scribbled signature, just leg pain severe, making people unable to ignore. Serena act spoiled shook man’s arm. “You go buy me a pair of shoes, okay?” “Mn.” Xavier stood up, lightly scanned me once, turned and left. Doctor closed door, air quiet only could hear rain sound outside window. “Luna.” Serena opened mouth, tore the last trace of peace. “Don’t blame me.” “Xavier he deserves better, I also have right to fight for what I want.” I didn’t speak, just felt rain sound too quiet. Couldn’t cover pain at wound. Serena still felt not enough, counted one by one. “Bag you wanted him buy back from Paris, not out of stock, is in my closet.” “His phone password and wallpaper made of your photo changed, not want to appear more business, but I required.” “Last month your grandma death anniversary that day, Xavier didn’t business trip, was accompanying me to concert.” “Also wedding house Sterling family looking at, not prepared for you.” Every sentence, like a nail hammered into my heart. She didn’t let me go, gently stroked belly. “I am already pregnant.” “Xavier wanted to find a good time to tell you, I feel today is quite suitable.” I was nailed in place. Just during breakup noise at end of year, I lost a child. Just because Xavier said a sentence. “Luna, now is not the time yet.” Rain sound tik-tok, my tears surging. Blurted out: “Shut up! Get out!” I raised hand, dead pressed leg part. Too painful. Chapter 3 Moment anesthesia took effect, my whole body cold. Eyes went black, I remembered day found out pregnancy. I spent 3 hours made a table of good dishes, hid pregnancy test report in gift box. Celebration cake candle flickering, Xavier however silent long time. He rubbed back of my hand, deep voice said: “Luna, I hope our child, can be born in a blessed environment.” And in my phone, still saved message Mother Sterling scolded me shameless day before. In his family’s eyes, I am a puddle of rotten mud by road. Should consciously stay far from him. Tears instantly smashed down. I tremblingly questioned: “Xavier Sterling, you confessed to me at 18, promised you would give me a very good very good home, is it not counting anymore?” He lowered head refused to look at me, only said: “Luna, I also have difficulties.” Later, I alone went on operating table. That time seemed also rainy day, I only felt whole body very heavy. Was wetness can’t disperse. Woke up, ward quiet. Took out phone reply work message, I scrolled to a Serena’s Instagram post. Small square box lying in flowers, inside placed a ring inlaid with Pigeon Blood Ruby. Was style I mentioned wanted with Xavier when young and ignorant. I liked it. Passed 5 minutes, Xavier sent new message. [Luna, did you finish surgery, what did doctor say?] [Your amnesia matter, did doctor say possible recover?] I replied: [You are Serena’s boyfriend, my matter has nothing to do with you.] Not waiting him reply, I blocked both of them. Raised by grandma me, when met them two, thought was fate couldn’t stand I pitiful, gave me gift. A big dream. Now I also should wake up. Care worker auntie asked me: “Little sister, where is your family?” “You can’t hide surgery matter from them, if you were my daughter, I knew would heart ache dead.” I smiled: “I have no family.” “Not a single one left.” I closed eyes, hid hot eye rims well. One week later, I followed doctor advice discharge. Back to that so-called “Home”, I started packing things. Just struggling stuffing clothes into suitcase, room door opened from outside. Laughter came. Is Serena and Father Sterling Mother Sterling. Once saw me, Mother Sterling raised thin long brows. “Why are you here?” “Our Xavier about to get married, how you still have face to come?” I paused. Put in past, I didn’t want Xavier sandwiched in middle uncomfortable, always endured again and again. Now, actually no need. I cooled face down: “I paid money for this house, why can’t come?” “Carefully calculate, you guys are the ones no qualification.” University last year, Xavier wanted to found his own gaming company. Father Mother Sterling didn’t agree, cut his living expense, forced him go abroad study academic path. Was me took out money earned from modeling, raising him, also raising his startup team. Even this house, also had a part money I paid. Now Xavier startup successful company about IPO, I instead became little model can’t get on table in Sterling family mouth. “Really no breeding.” Father Sterling raised hand pointing me. “How you talk to us, immediately apologize!” I just about to choke back. Corner of eye glimpsed familiar figure in elevator hall. Moment recognized who, a chill rushed up along spine bone.

Fifth year after being Blacklisted by Julian, I met him in a Bar. He spent thousands, celebrating his “The One That Got Away”, Scarlett, winning the Best Actress Award. And I was here as a Bottle Service Girl. He found me, asked me to come over and drink with them. “Left me, result is being a hostess, thought you had so much guts.” “Julian, don’t say Sister Serena like this, she changed from a big star to a hostess, think about it also not easy, give more tips later.” Scarlett hooked Julian’s arm, proud curves on chest tightly pressed against his arm. Julian leaned back, legs casually rested on the table. “Don’t, people have high integrity, how can look up to others’ charity, tips definitely want to earn by herself ah, right Big Star Serena.” He pointed at that row of alcohol on the table, eyes dark. This bit of verbal humiliation to current me counts as nothing, Lily still waiting for money to save life. I smiled shallowly, “Mr. Julian said right, earning money is not shabby.” Voice fell, I didn’t say second word, drank up that row of alcohol on the table. Then took out Venmo QR code, “Many thanks Mr. Julian.” … Chapter 1 “Panic what, so many people in private room, you accompany well money won’t lack yours.” Originally noisy private room, because Julian’s one sentence became quiet for a moment. Those people’s faces besides disbelief and schadenfreude, still vaguely revealed some expectation. Once I was a top trending star, Julian was just a poor boy whose family went bankrupt and just started business. These people in private room who started business with him, put in past don’t say drink with me, even see me was hard. Because followed right person, now everyone worth a lot. Now they sit on high platform, I fall into dust, naturally no half respect to me. A hand quietly climbed on my waist, accompanied by a pull, I was dragged onto sofa, look closely beside is a wretched face. “Miss Serena, I request not much, just drink a cup of cross-cupped wine.” Voice just fell, “Bang” a sound, wine glass by Julian hand fell ground. Scattered wine, and glass shards, under light refraction reflected his fragmented shadow. Such occasion I see everyday not thousand times also hundred times. As long as not too excessive, for money I choose endure. I ignored this small episode, calmly lifted man’s hand on my waist, stuffed a glass of wine, then smilingly drank cross-cupped wine with man. Crowd seeing situation started jeering, Julian’s face however gloomy down. Scarlett frowned said: “Sister Serena, past anyhow followed Julian, you earn this kind dirty money, not afraid lose Julian’s face.” I faintly smiled, again picked up a new glass of wine. “I am accompanying drink, not accompanying sleep, nothing dirty.” “Past accompany brand side, investors drink, now accompany customers drink, essentially no difference.” “If Miss Scarlett needs, I can also accompany you drink.” Scarlett choked by my words, angry eyes staring at me. “Serena you a hostess also dare yin yang me.” Slap a sound, a loud slap fell on my face. Burning pain hit, I light laughed, “Miss Scarlett, this is another price, remember add price later.” I didn’t care crowd reaction, in everyone surprised eyes, one cup after another almost drank with everyone in private room once, left one person time, stomach started uncontrollably cramping pain. Face just now red because slap gradually became pale, cold sweat on forehead. Hand holding wine started weak powerless, but I haven’t finished, money haven’t got hand, I force support came to last person Preston front. He is Julian’s childhood friend, also that thorn in me and Julian heart. Wine glass sent to mouth blocked by him, Preston eyes gloomy. “Enough Julian, can’t you see Serena already very uncomfortable?” Julian still lay on chair, gaze switch back and forth on me and Preston, full eyes disdain and disgust. “Tsk tsk tsk, should I praise Sister Serena charm infinite ne, or praise President Preston long affection ne?” Scarlett spoke first. “Five years ago, you guys behind Julian cheated, even made a bastard, now preparing continue fate?” That was a night I full heart joy preparing wedding with Julian.

After near two months Julian didn’t see me, threw me in south city villa, confiscated my phone, also not allow me see him. I couldn’t stand such coldness, so ran to that apartment nearest company find him. When he work busy would live there, I wanted find him say clear, even if he want break up with me also okay. I but saw him and Scarlett enter out together. That moment my heart like knife twist, we together ten years, just because a not yet verified mistake, he threw into others embrace. Maybe his heart never forgot Scarlett, back then if not Scarlett went abroad, he might not make do with me. I heart gray cold packing own things, bumped into Julian come back take document midway. “You still want separate with me?” He slapped document in hand on table, loud shouted at me, that was first time he threw fire at me in memory. “You have what face separate with me, want separate also I say!” My hand pinching bag stop not shaking, heart like blocked a stone, let me can’t breathe also stab me pain. “Julian, I also don’t know why that thing happened, I really didn’t betray you.” He light hum, picked up that document want go, I cry shout step forward hug him. “Julian we talk, I really didn’t, can you…” He ruthless threw me away, foot unstable, a burst dizziness hit, I fainted. Wake up again I was in hospital bed. Open eyes, first sentence he said was, “Abort the child.” I then react, surprise and helpless touched flat lower abdomen. “Miss Serena uterus has cyst, if this child aborted, future might not have way want child, you guys want consider clear.” Doctor added aside. I knew Julian meaning, he felt this child is Preston’s. Although I can’t remember what happened that night, but maybe woman intuition, I felt child in belly is Julian’s. So I pulled his hand beg said: “Julian, just let me give birth to this child okay.” “If it not yours, I will self watch do.” “And doctor said, this might be my only child.” “Okay not okay, count I beg you.” Julian abnormal cold, disgust pulled away own hand, look me eyes like look dead thing. “Child impossible be mine, so… abort.” “No discussion.” Dropped this sentence, he then left.

Just want leave, Scarlett found me. “Serena?” Julian followed her voice look over, gaze carried scrutiny, disgust even hate. “You still dare come, still bring your bastard.” Julian raised eyebrow, “Back then left so decisive, now come back do what.” “What, he even own child not care, you can’t raise want let me be pick-up man?” I force endure sadness, walked forward two steps. “Julian, you look this child, she and you…” “Take your bastard far away.” Scarlett pushed me away, “Really treat Julian as fool?” Julian knit brows, “Throw your this bastard, I then let you come back, otherwise don’t think step into my Jiang family one step.” I looked his cold face, suddenly understood, me and him already can’t go back. “I don’t need your charity.” I held daughter resolutely left. Anyway I alone also can raise child well. “Serena, you for this bastard do to this step, you don’t regret.” But very fast I was ruthlessly slapped face by reality. Work already stagnated one year because birth, because various gossip news, and Julian operation snow on frost. Overwhelming marketing accounts talking about me and Preston matter. A time I became bitch seducing brother, everyone shout beat. All work completely pause, agency cancel contract with me. Hard easy have capital look on past affection willing pull me a hand, but at about sign contract, learned someone let words, in entertainment circle, if someone dare give me work, that is against Julian Group.

So I found a normal enterprise enter. Although not earn much as before, but days count stable. Originally thought life just calm go on like this, change happened at company I work had cooperation with Julian Group. Project start second day, I was notified, company want fire me. From then on, no matter which company I go, always stay not two months will be fired. I knew this is Julian revenge.

Days although bitter, but daughter day by day grow up, my inner heart also by these ordinary happiness fill bit by bit. Pity heaven love joke with me, two years ago, Lily got Leukemia. Bone marrow transplant is a big sum money, I can’t take out.

Lily everyday fee let me unbearable heavy burden, come money fast and legal way I can think only bottle service. Rely on ex movie star identity, accompany drink earn not less, just for Lily medical fee also cup water cart wood. Good thing Lily luck good, already found matched bone marrow. Now just lack last forty thousand then enough give Lily do surgery. So I day night drink wine, this moment even Scarlett want me kneel to her I don’t bring hesitate. Let alone her few sentences verbal humiliation. Thoughts return cage, I force endure stomach pain, accompany smile face, drink down last glass wine. “Mr. Julian, Miss Scarlett, don’t know you guys still satisfied?” “Wine I already drank finish, please settle money ba.” Saying I again extended Venmo QR code. Julian face ugly, open phone action a pause. “I dislike dirty, find my assistant settle bill ba.” Voice fall, he get up just leave still force pull away Preston.

Julian still hate me, naturally don’t want I earn money, otherwise won’t let bar fire me, more won’t even promised accompany drink money not pay. Walk no road, I had to drag pain body run to that apartment, go find Julian, go beg him. He charity me fine, humiliate me fine, I must from him there want money. Now person can save daughter only him. I wait at apartment door, but only waited come Scarlett. “Serena, you come do what?” “Yesterday money haven’t settle, Miss Scarlett can give me ma?” Look at my humble look, Scarlett finally not act. “Hahaha,” she laughed rampant, “Serena ah Serena you also have today.” “You still don’t know right, actually that day you and Preston nothing happened, is I gave you guys drugged, see you now so miserable, also not waste I back then painstaking plan a scene.” That time I heart also suspected, but I no evidence. “Why?” “Me and Julian childhood sweethearts, just because your appearance he actually didn’t wait me, you say you deserve die not.” “Rob things with me people no good ending, I gave you chance, five years ago I just use Preston let you roll away from Julian side, now you since still want come entangle, then I let you see you and your that bastard how die.” Voice fall, she gave herself a slap, then turn body hit on wall, forehead seep blood color, then step forward pull my hand, I haven’t react, she just fall on ground.

I look his gradual disappear back, heart like dead ash. Chapter 3 I flip open phone, try find a person can borrow money from inside. But I flip through contacts, find no one can find. These years I took Lily alone live, also made few friends, but finally don’t know why finally all lost contact. Later I then knew this is also Julian instruction. Gradually I side also no what friends. I thought take daughter go other city live, but Los Angeles has best medical condition, especially target Lily illness, in domestic research all walk in front. For daughter, I do what all willing. Fingertip slide to a remark called Wang Nan. Is a middle age real estate developer from outland, over fifty widower. Before come bar time hinted me, if willing follow him, then buy me house buy car. I didn’t plan use body go change money, I think future Lily grow up if know own mom is what kind, she will sad. But this moment, I seem no better road can walk. Future she sad, also always better than no life strong. Hesitate again and again, I pressed dial key. Appointed with him in hotel, right on way rushing past, again received hospital call. “Lily Mom, Lily enter emergency room, you come a bit.” Hear words, I crazy like rush to hospital. When I arrive, Lily just come out from emergency room. Small face pale no blood color, small one lie on sickbed.

“Mom, the daughter you hid for 20 years is here to ask for the house.” I stood by the hospital bed, looking at my haggard mother. Her eyes dodged me, lips moved a few times. “Ethan, that is your sister…” Sister? I served her for 8 years. Changing Bedpans, quit my job, didn’t marry, no life. 8 years. She hid a daughter for 20 years, didn’t let me know a single phone call. Now, that “sister” is here. To split the Inheritance. … Chapter 1 When that woman stood at the door, I thought she had the wrong room. “Excuse me, is Linda Miller staying here?” I stunned a bit: “Who are you looking for?” “Linda Miller.” She said again, “I am her daughter.” I didn’t understand. “What did you say?” “Linda Miller’s daughter, Ruby.” She said calmly, “I came to see my mom.” Linda Miller is my mother’s name. I am Linda Miller’s only child. “You have the wrong room.” I said. She smiled, took out her phone from her bag, flipped to a photo. It was my mother. Mother when young, about forty years old, standing beside a little girl, seven or eight years old look. Mother’s hand, rested on that girl’s shoulder. Under the photo was a line of handwritten words. “Ruby 8th Birthday, Mom loves you forever.” My hand started shaking uncontrollably. “Who exactly are you?” She put away the phone, looked up at me: “Bro, my name is Ruby. My dad is Robert. 20 years ago, my mom was with my dad.” Bro. She called me Bro. I held the door frame, only felt the world spinning. “Impossible.” I said, “My mom impossible…” “Enough.” Mother’s voice came from the ward, “Ethan, let her in.” I turned back. Mother leaned on the bed, no surprise on her face. No surprise at all. She knew. She long knew this person would come. “Mom…” “Let her in.” Mother repeated, voice hoarse, “I have words to say to you guys.” That afternoon, I knew a secret hidden for 20 years. Mother had an affair when I was 10. The other party was Robert, her colleague at the time. They were together for three years. Had a daughter. Ruby. “I don’t know how to tell you.” Mother didn’t look at me, eyes staring out the window, “It’s been too long.” Too long? I am 32 this year. This matter hidden for 20 years. Does my dad know? “Your dad knows.” Mother seemed to guess my mind, “Later, I cut contact with that man. Your dad forgave me.” Forgave? I felt chest blocked by a giant stone, couldn’t breathe. “Then her?” I pointed at Ruby standing aside, “You cut contact, how is she still here?” “I cut with her dad.” Mother said, “But she is my daughter, I can’t ignore.” Can’t ignore. “These 20 years, you always caring for her?” Mother didn’t speak. Ruby answered for her: “Every month, Mom would send living expenses to my dad. My college tuition, was also Mom paid.” Every month. Living expenses. Tuition. I remembered something. Senior year of high school, I wanted to sign up for a Coding Bootcamp, one summer $2,000. Mother said too expensive, no need. I worked part-time myself, saved for three summers, then saved enough for exchange program fees. And she, every month sending living expenses to another man. Paying tuition for another child. “How much?” I asked. “What?” “How much did you give them every month?” Mother didn’t speak. Ruby said: “Two thousand.” Every month two thousand. 20 years. I calculated. $480,000. Plus college tuition, tens of thousands a year, four years at least $50,000. Added up, over $500,000. My $2,000 bootcamp, too expensive. She spent $500,000 on a secret daughter in 20 years, not expensive. “Mom.” I heard my own voice, dry and trembling, “These years, why didn’t you tell me?” “Tell you for what?” Mother finally looked at me, a trace of impatience in her eyes, “What use saying it out? Let you hate me?” Let me hate her. I clenched my fists. “I don’t hate you.” I said, “I just want to know, in your heart, what am I.” Mother didn’t answer. Ruby spoke: “Bro, let the past pass. Mom is not well now, let’s not make her worry.” Her tone calm, even carrying a few points of concern. As if she is the real child of this family. As if I am the extra person. “Why did you come?” I asked her. “See Mom.” She said, “Also meet Bro.” “And then?” She paused. “Mom said, want to settle the Inheritance matter.” Inheritance. Turns out came to split inheritance. Chapter 2 Mother’s illness was found four years ago. Late stage Breast Cancer. Doctor said, at most one year. I quit my job, focused on taking care of her at home. One year became two years, two years became three years. Now is the fourth year. In between Mother hospitalized six times, big small surgeries did three times, chemotherapy did more than ten courses. Every time, was me accompanying. Registration, queuing, paying fees, picking up medicine, delivering food, wiping body, changing bedpans. 3 AM, she shouted pain, I climbed up to massage her. 6 AM, she wanted porridge, I had to get up at 5 to cook. Four years. 1460 days. I haven’t slept a complete sleep. My dad is old, health also not good, can’t help much. Relatives symbolically came to see few times, sent some fruits, said few “hard work”, then disappeared. All things, are me alone carrying. I am 32 this year. Age should marry, I have no partner. Age should work, I have no income. Age should enjoy, I gnaw bread in hospital corridor. I am not without resentment. But she is my mother. I thought, I am her only child. I thought, everything I did, she would remember. Now I know, she remembers, is another person. A daughter she hid for 20 years. “Mom.” That night, I sat by the bed, “These four years, who was taking care of you?” Mother closed eyes, didn’t speak. “Is me.” I answered myself, “From you found illness start, is me quit job, is me changing bedpans, is me accompanying you surgery, is me whole night whole night not sleep.” “I know.” She said. “Then her?” I pointed at door, “These four years, where was she?” Mother opened eyes, looked at me. “She didn’t know I was sick.” “You didn’t tell her?” “No.” “Why?” “She is still young, has her own life.” Mother said, “I don’t want to delay her.” Don’t want to delay her. Me? I am also young, I also have my own career. When I quit, what did you say? You said: “You are my son, taking care of me is should be.” Should be. “Then me?” I asked, “Have you thought about delaying me?” Mother didn’t speak. “I am 32.” I continued, “My classmates all married, some kids in elementary school. Me? I have no partner, no savings, no job. These four years, I have nothing.” “You will have.” Mother said, “When I go, you are free.” When she goes. I am free. I suddenly laughed out. “Mom, do you know what you are saying?” She didn’t speak. “You said when you go, I am free.” I stood up, “Then what are these four years? These four years I paid, what count in your eyes?” “I remember.” Mother said. “You remember?” I pointed outside door, “You remember me, or remember her?” Mother looked at me, there was something in her eyes. Not guilt. Is annoyance. “Ethan, can you not make noise?” Make noise. I took care of her four years, no complaint. She hid a secret daughter for 20 years, I ask a sentence, is “making noise”. “Good.” I took a deep breath, “I don’t make noise. You tell me, that Ruby came for what?” “She came to see me.” “She came for inheritance.” I said, “Right or not?” Mother didn’t speak. “Right or not?” “…She is my daughter.” Mother finally opened mouth, “My things, leave to her, have what problem?” Her things. Leave to her daughter. Have what problem. I stood there, felt whole body ice cold. “Mom, then me?” “You are son.” Mother said, “Son later want to bear own small family, these things leave to daughter, is to let her have a guarantee later.” Chapter 3 That night, I returned home, saw Ruby standing in living room. She was looking around, looking at sofa, TV, family photo on wall. “Bro.” She turned around, smiled a bit, “This house quite big.” 1200 square feet. This is Mother’s only real estate. Back then bought spent $400k. Now this location, at least worth $1.5 Million. “What are you looking at?” I asked. “Nothing, just casual looking.” Her tone natural, “This house Mom bought right?” “Yes.” “Who’s name on House Deed?” I stunned a bit. “Written my mom’s name.” “Oh.” She nodded, “That’s good.” That’s good? What meaning? “Bro, I tell you truth.” Ruby sat down on sofa, crossed legs, “Mom’s meaning is, after she goes, this house belongs to me.” I felt someone stabbed a knife in my heart. “What?” “Mom said, house give me.” She repeated, “Also those her 401k, savings, add up about $700k, also give me.” $700k. Plus house $1.5 Million. Total over $2 Million. My mother’s entire life savings. All give her. “You are joking?” I said. “No.” Ruby took out a paper from bag, “This is Mom’s Will, notarized by lawyer. You can look.” I took that paper. Will. Written clearly on it. “I, Linda Miller, voluntarily leave all assets under my name, including one real estate, savings and investments, to daughter Ruby.” Daughter Ruby. Not son Ethan Miller. I flipped the will, saw Mother’s signature, and red fingerprint. Date was three months ago. Three months ago, I was still in hospital accompanying her chemotherapy. She while letting me serve, while secretly wrote will, gave everything to secret daughter. “Bro, don’t be angry.” Ruby said, “Mom said, you taking care of her these years, very hard. She left a little money for you, $10,000, count as thanking you.” $10,000. I took care of her four years, quit job, lost partner, delayed life. She gave me $10,000. Another secret daughter never took care of her, get $2 Million. “Bro?” Ruby looked at me, “Are you okay?” I laughed. “I am okay.” I returned the will to her. “You want house, right?” “Mom’s meaning is…” “I ask you.” I interrupted her, “You want house, right?” She paused: “Right.” “Good.” I stood up, “I move out tomorrow.” Ruby stunned. “Bro, don’t be like this, I didn’t mean that…” “You mean exactly that.” I looked at her, “You come here, is for this house. Right?” She didn’t speak. “I ask you.” I said, “These 20 years, how many times you saw my mom?” “…Not many.” “How many?” “Five six times ba.” “Me?” I said, “I lived with her 32 years. I served her four years. You five six times, I 1460 days.” Ruby opened mouth, didn’t say words. “But she gave everything to you.” I said, “Do you know why?” “…Why?” “Because you are daughter she born with cheating man.” I laughed, “In her eyes, daughter needs be pained more, son should carry himself. I took care four years, not as good as your one sentence ‘Mom’.” I didn’t finish. I couldn’t say down. “Bro, Mom her generation…” “Don’t call me Bro.” I said, “I have no sister.” Chapter 4 I went to find Mother. “Mom, that will you wrote?” Mother leaned on bed head, looking at me. “Yes.” “Why?” “I said.” Her tone calm, “She is my daughter.” “Am I not your son?” “You are.” She said, “But son wants to stand tall, can’t always think about family assets. Daughter different, need assets to depend on.” “Stand tall?” I asked, “Then what about these four years? I served you four years, count what?” “I know you worked hard.” Mother said, “I left $10,000 for you.” “$10,000.” I repeated. “Not enough?” “Mom, your meaning is, my four years, worth $10,000?” Mother frowned: “Ethan, how you become like this? Open mouth close mouth is money.” I became like this. Open mouth close mouth is money. “Mom, not me open mouth close mouth is money.” I said, “Is you open mouth close mouth is your that daughter.” “She is my daughter, I can’t ignore her.” “Then me?” “You are also my son.” Mother said, “I raised you 32 years, eat wear use, which item less yours?” Raised me 32 years. “Mom, I went out work at 18.” I said, “My college tuition, I loaned myself. After I work, every month still send money home. You raised me how many years?” Mother didn’t speak. “Do you know how much you send that man every month? $2,000.” I said, “When I was senior high, want enroll a bootcamp, $2,000, you said too expensive.” “That is two different things.” “Where is two different things?” “He alone bringing her, not easy.” Mother said, “You different, you have Dad.” I have Dad. So I deserve it. “Mom, do you really feel you not wrong?” Mother looked at me, eyes carrying a trace of sorrow. “Ethan, I am old. I don’t have many days. I just want to arrange after matters well.” After matters. “Your after matters, is give everything to that secret daughter?” “Don’t say her like that.” Mother said, “She is your sister.” Sister. “I have no sister.” “Ethan!” “I said, I have no sister.” I looked at her, “I also have no mother.” Mother’s face changed. “What did you say?” “From today.” I stood up, “We are clear.” “Ethan Miller!” “Don’t you want give house to her?” I said, “I move out tomorrow. Don’t you want give money to her? $10,000 I also don’t want. From today, you dead or alive, no relation with me.” Mother’s face flushed red. “You… you dare! You dare ignore me!” “Have you ignored me?” I turned, walked out. “Ethan Miller! You stand there for me!” “You go find your daughter.” I didn’t look back, “This life, don’t meet again.”

Husband has a toxic mouth. When I went on a business trip with a male boss, he texted: [Nice, remember to use protection.] Because I wrote one word wrong, he called me stupid as a pig. Even when I was giving birth, fainting from Contractions, husband still mocked in my ear: [What are you enjoying?] I had bitterness hard to say, people around comforted. “Men don’t understand these, he is just a Typical Guy, says whatever comes to mind, don’t take it to heart.” I had to force myself not to care. Until the secretary beside him, during a negotiation, handed out blank paper as the project contract, causing the loss of a $100 Million deal. If it were before, husband would have been Passive-aggressive long ago, scolding the person as brain-dead. But this time, he whispered comfort to the female secretary: “Don’t blame you, it doesn’t matter, don’t be sad.” … Chapter 1 My gaze fell on the pair of snuggling figures, hand holding the phone suddenly tightened. Others in the company were indignant aside—— “Mr. Vance, this project is very important to us…” “Yes, the other party is our company’s biggest partner, can’t offend.” “The proposal was rushed out by us staying up several nights, Giselle must be responsible for this matter.” Giselle, Is exactly the girl being coaxed by Julian Vance in low voice. Hearing this, Julian looked up, “What does it have to do with Giselle? Terminating the project just because we brought the wrong contract, the other company is also not a good partner.” “But——” Others wanted to say something more, only saw Julian’s brows slightly furrowed, “Enough, isn’t it just a project? Why everyone crying face?” Seeing they couldn’t persuade him, everyone scattered back to their stations. Giselle lifted her head from Julian’s arms, eyes filled with worship, “Mr. Vance, thank you.” Julian seemed very useful. He stared at Giselle for a few seconds, raised his hand and naturally touched her head. Voice restrained, looking away, “Work hard.” Atmosphere just right. And I stood out at this moment. Just approached them, Giselle was like a startled rabbit, red eyes drilled out from Julian’s arms. “Mrs. Vance.” Julian almost subconsciously protected her behind him. Not waiting for me to speak, “What are you doing here?” Julian looked at me vigilantly. Watching his action, my heart felt like pricked by needles, uncomfortable all over. Married for three years, his mouth toxic never willing to coax people, times I cried by his anger not less than hundred, first time seeing him show doting look. I hooked a self-mocking smile, “I heard about the cooperation, making such a mistake, let Giselle go to HR for resignation process.” “Company matters, no need you to manage.” Julian pursed lips, impatient said, “If your mouth is idle panic, better go lick toilets in public restroom clean, also count as doing good deed.” Person just now face full of tenderness, at this moment became furious. Nasal cavity blocked by sourness. Silence spread in the air. Half晌, Julian recovered spirit, added, “Giselle didn’t mean it, don’t be too harsh on her.” I looked straight at him, “Just because of this?” “If I did this kind of thing, would you comfort me like this? Before just because I got you wrong tie, you scolded my eyes as decoration, threw tie on my face.” “How come to Giselle it changed?” I said a string of words. Poured out grievances suffered before. “This is different, she is my subordinate…” “I am your wife!” I shouted at him. Julian’s face sank, low voice shouted. “Enough, you targeting Giselle too obvious.” “This is simply not same thing.” I interrupted him. Julian suddenly smashed the tea cup by hand down. Fragments split, bounced on my exposed calf, blood oozed out. His volume suddenly increased: “Scarlett, if you are sick go cure!” “Isn’t it just a f*cking cooperation, calculating what?” I stunned. Julian seemed still felt not enough, he took out a Check from bag, threw on my face. Check scattered, along with two used Disneyland tickets. I stared at the date on tickets, instantly froze in place. Turns out the day me and son hospitalized for car accident, he wasn’t busy on business trip. “You fill whatever.” Julian’s sarcastic voice, let my thoughts return to reality. “Is this okay now?!” He took out bank card again. Fierce throw. “Enough one hundred million not?” “I pay for her!” My chest swelled painful. Since marriage, although his mouth unforgiving, but first time so angry at me, eyes strange like outsider. Giselle sniffed nose pulled Julian’s sleeve. “Mr. Vance, I know you are a good leader treating newcomers well, but…” Giselle like suffered sky big grievance, looking at me deep breath, eyes full unyielding and stubborn, “Did Madam misunderstand something, me and Mr. Vance clear and white, if you make big fuss because other things, also too excessive.” I cold sneer, hands itching. “You also worthy?” Giselle instantly pale face. Chapter 2 “Madam, I respect you as Mr. Vance’s wife, but you are at most a Stay-at-home Mom.” “You understand nothing, you don’t know Mr. Vance for work, can sleepless; for negotiation, drink until stomach sick, when he was hard was me accompanying.” Giselle said extremely proud. “Me and him in workplace, are most tacit partners.” “Back then he married you, not for you to be jealous.” “Now he needs a capable helper who understands him, fight side by side with him, woman like you, only knows hiding behind him enjoy.” I hide behind Julian? Year 20 met him, we were both poor students living on school grants. Later Julian wanted start business, we squeezed in small rental room. I skipped all classes, three jobs a day, slept four hours daily, money earned all gave him. Future too far, that time even living needed great courage. Graduated, company finally improved. Eyed by peers, someone maliciously acquired at low price. Julian didn’t agree, they kidnapped me, our first child lost like this. Later we did bigger and bigger, many connections ran by me. Until pregnant again, Julian scared, he said—— Scarlett, give company to me. Take care of our child. I started full time at home. Many people said I luck good, picked potential stock, follow enjoy. But before this, how not full of bitterness? “Anyway, I am different from you women who sell uterus.” Giselle still chattering output. Long time didn’t hear such lecture, I arms crossed sizing her up. Smile not smile said, “Before saying this, why not come out from my man’s embrace first?” “You guys hug in front of me, privately don’t know did what shameful dirty deeds, don’t say yourself so innocent.” I threw sound on ground, attracting other employees look over, reveal a look of “sure enough so”. Julian face iron green, pulling Giselle walk out. “Scarlett, dirty heart sees everything dirty.” “Good reflect your mistakes.” A chill, straight up along spine. I gripped chest clothes tightly. Seem only doing this, can relieve suffocation. How to tell him? Even if he and Giselle really nothing, their behavior crossed line. 20 years old Julian, full heart full eyes only held me. He had strong psychological mysophobia. Other women approaching, only made him feel dirty. When I tried hug him, play fight he never refused. Now, Watching his hand holding Giselle, Heart also gradually cooled. On way home, Swiped Giselle’s post on Instagram. Caption is: [Best boss in the world.] Picture is a Michelin restaurant, Julian and Giselle tight next to each other. When I sad alone, they went eat big meal. Table dishes rich. Beside is a bouquet of beautifully wrapped champagne roses. Before Julian disdained sending flowers, Under my many times begging, he then impatient said, “Don’t be brainwashed by those ritual speeches online, this kind of thing not practical.” Screen off. Phone holding almost dropped. Trance felt, My seven years accompanying him, like a joke. Chapter 3 After dinner, Julian finally willing to come back. He hesitantly took out a rose, put on table. Look unnatural said: “Giselle said girls need coaxing, these years didn’t send flowers to you, today make up.” I lifted eyes look. Is a champagne colored one. Same as Julian sent Giselle. Difference is. Giselle had a big bouquet. And I only have lonely one, and petals became withered yellow. Nails dug into palm. Suddenly felt boring thoroughly. I faint smile, “Thank you.” Julian brows dyed irritability. He frowned, “Me and Giselle forgive you.” “Originally is your fault, put on this stinky face for who to see?” I open mouth want say something, throat instantly like blocked by a ball of wet cotton, a suffocation hit. Maybe see me silent. Julian cold face, impatiently kicked shoes aside, cold sneer turn head: “Awesome, make like who owe you, Giselle didn’t even ask you apologize.” Mouthful “Giselle”, don’t know, Think they are the couple. I took back emotion, Only calmly replied, “Tomorrow together go see Leo.” One week ago, picking son from school road had car accident. Phone screen shattered, stayed on call interface dialing Julian, is only number I dialed. I dialed again and again. Call hung up again and again. Good thing sent hospital timely. Leo stayed in hospital observation. Julian knew matter after, no one sentence explanation. Just mocked me, “Fact proves, not giving birth to child called mother.” I that time guilty extremely, Everyday travel hospital take care Leo. He however never went once, ask is meeting no time. Since accompany secretary eat have time, think go see son also have time. Julian moved lips, “Good, tomorrow I accompany you go.” That night, we slept separate beds. Until early morning guest room light still on. He was video calling Giselle. Two people chatted from work to daily life, again because shared TikTok laugh together, finally listening subordinate nutrition-less complain. “Female secretary really hard do, still have to deal with jealous boss wife~” Julian patient coaxing, “Good girl, with me here no one hurt you.” “She heart always small, Miss Giselle just big person not remember small person fault… Yes yes yes, not everyone same as you, is new era independent woman.” “Fancy which dress? With lace that one? I remember that night you wore, I like very much.” Julian just like this, Indulge in Giselle one sound after another charming “Mr. Vance”. I stood outside door, heart fierce pain. Think not long ago, Julian suddenly cold on bed matter. I to please him, bought a closet of dresses. Among them was a white lace dress. I wore good lie on bed, full heart expect he would give response. He just looked me up and down once, Teased: “Self-inflicted humiliation, you wear like old sow play bondage.” I ashamed indignant. Lowered head looking at belly shriveled fat because giving birth. Since then, I then never love wear dress. Turns out he saw other woman wore, Had comparison, Then look down on me. Chapter 4 When I got up, Julian already sat at dining table. He just like already turned page, Put bread in plate front of me, again poured hot milk for me. “Eat finish we go see Leo…” His phone rang. Ringtone I haven’t heard. Probably, Is exclusive. On screen, showing “Little Secretary” three words. Julian looked at me once, opened speaker. Opposite is a surprise voice. “Julian, our raised cub gave birth to a litter of kittens!” My heart fierce sink. Quietly staring at Julian. He stunned a moment, next second consciousness recover clear, crazy like picked up car key, casual took a jacket want go out. I swept bowls plates on table to ground. Porcelain broke on ground, split pieces. Emit “Clang” crisp sound. “Julian Vance,” I chest violently heaving, raise voice call stop him, “Leo still waiting you in hospital.” He steps paused. Did not turn back. “I go see him, he again won’t immediately recover.” Finished head not back left. This time I didn’t force again, maybe disappointed enough, even fight thought also gone. Watch helplessly him, Run to another woman. Call driver, alone went hospital. Push open ward door, Just saw Leo holding phone, hand to me, “Mom, is Dad don’t want Leo anymore?” On screen, Impressively is a trending search, [Vance Group Julian Vance private meeting female secretary, enter out couple restaurant photographed.] This is yesterday matter. Leo continued say, “I now all can’t get through Dad phone.” I screen off.

Working overtime until 2 AM, I accidentally clicked a pop-up and saw a very hot Reddit thread. The OP’s tone seemed relaxed, but every line radiated despair: “Today while my husband was working, I peeked at his phone.” “Ask everyone, putting everything else aside, he only put me on the Block List, does this mean I am very special to him?” “I am not Delulu, but only blocking me alone, how is it not special…?” I understood, this is a woman driven crazy after seeing her husband’s phone. But that man is really stupid, how can he let his wife see his phone casually? Unlike me, always cautious. I shook my head, subconsciously touched my side, then froze—— WTF, where is my phone? … Chapter 1 Finished replying to the client’s last message, it was already 2 AM. Living room very quiet. My cat raised for half a year was sleeping soundly on the balcony. My Arranged Marriage wife of one year was handling her own work in the study. I stretched, wanted to wash up and sleep. But hand slipped clicked a pop-up on computer, a hot thread immediately popped out. I blinked eyes, curiously scrolled mouse, thread content completely displayed before my eyes. OP is a woman, thread tone seemed relaxed, but lines radiated faint despair: [Today while husband working, I despicably peeked at his phone left in study.] [Ask everyone, putting everything else aside, he pinned his bros, first love and family, but only put me on Block List, does it mean I am also very special to him?] Me: ? ? ? Good guy, where came this 24K pure gold Simp? Why didn’t I meet one? Really drought die of drought, flood die of flood. I sighed with emotion, continued scrolling comments below. [Sis, bold ask, you said putting everything else aside, what is that everything else?] OP thoughtful, word by word replied: [Um…] [Just, just aside he and his bros said I am old, aside he and his bros said want divorce me, aside he said want find first love, aside he doesn’t like talk to me, aside he doesn’t let me touch his things…] [Um, no more, just put these aside first…] Netizen B: [??? Not, Sis you really are Delulu ah, already like this still feel people treat you special?] [Must he slap divorce papers on your face, let you roll far away, you then can believe yourself is the unloved one?] OP suddenly silent. Instead more and more netizens swarmed in to watch drama. And every netizen had to comment a sentence. [Look at this Simp, really hopeless…] … Just like this passed another half hour. OP online again. And fiercely refuted all comments saying she is Simp: [Yes, I love him, before marriage I loved him, even after marriage he scolds me, hates me, everyday wants divorce me, I also can’t convince myself not love him.] [But I really not Simp, I am sober, I am rational, I know what I am doing.] [But I don’t understand, only putting me on Block List how is not special?] [You bunch of single dogs simply don’t understand, a bunch of single dogs exactly can understand what…?] Replied netizens didn’t angry because of her words. Instead laughed louder: [Haha, OP broke defense, she is just a self-deceiving Simp…] I rubbed temples, considered understood the whole story—— This is a woman looked at her husband’s phone, stimulated mental disorder by things inside. But that man really careless ah, own phone how can casually let wife look? Unlike me always cautious. I shook head, subconsciously touched side, then froze—— WTF, where is my phone? Chapter 2 I searched around sofa a circle, but didn’t even find a hair. Done for, my phone really gone, inside all work messages. I calmed anxious mood, carefully recalled places phone might be left. Finally. Gaze couldn’t help falling on study door. I worked in living room whole day today, only went study once in middle find materials. Study door opened a crack. Light inside still on. Obviously my arranged marriage wife still busy. Say come coincidental, every time I overtime to early morning, she also always overtime to same time. I hesitated a bit. Got up walked towards study. However just walked to door. Light suddenly off. Immediately after. Woman’s footsteps sounded steady. Gradually far in darkness. Finally disappeared behind that door connecting study and bedroom. Elena went to sleep. I directly pushed open study door walked in. Sure enough found forgotten phone on bookshelf. I don’t have habit of locking phone, swiped open replied few work messages, retreated to contacts interface. Pinned position is my bros and my parents. And don’t know when inexplicably pinned, broke up eight hundred years stupid ex. Disgusting, bad luck, want vomit. I rolled eyes. Rapidly unpinned ex. Mind suddenly flashed an absurd idea. Husband working late night, phone left in study, pinned bros, family and first love—— Just now that thread wouldn’t be posted by Elena right? Chapter 3 Me and Elena are business alliance marriage. That year I just graduated college. Just preparing go to liked field show grand plan. But was told want marry four years older than me, old-fashioned dull Jiang family eldest daughter. To me at that time, this marriage contract undoubtedly was a cage destroying all my freedom. So, I started hating my parents, hating Jiang family parents, especially hating Elena. After marriage even didn’t give her a good face, of course she faced me also always a desire-less face. We two just like this broken days broken live. Later, I accidentally bumped into Elena looking at a photo quietly dazing. Person in photo blurry, only could barely distinguish is a young boy. I suddenly understood. Elena she should also be like me forced into this marriage. So from that day. I terminated behavior of not giving her good face. Just with her still nothing to say. Atmosphere between us also from start swords drawn bows bent became awkward incomparable. I also therefore started hating go home, but Elena seemed not affected. She everyday would on time on point go home. Like a programmed nanny robot, cook, laundry, clean housework. Last week my birthday. Played outside till dawn. Pushed open home door time. Actually saw her alone sitting on living room sofa, gazing somewhere dazing. Four eyes meet moment… I clearly saw that patch faint dark circle under her eyes. She quietly looked at me, lips slightly moved, seemed want say something. But I really afraid this awkward atmosphere, hurriedly turned upstairs. Walked to stair mouth couldn’t help look back once. Elena still sat in place. Face rarely hung a trace cramped. Just like a child did wrong thing, lightly pulling own clothes corner. I at that time still thought I was sleepy hallucination. … Thoughts took back. I again found just now that thread. Clicked open OP avatar, is a familiar super huge carat ring, flashed me dizzy. I pursed lips, quickly flipped out wedding photo with Elena, magnified ring on her left hand compare—— Two exactly same. I messy. Elena she loves me? How possible? She looks more annoyed by me than I annoyed by her ne! Coincidence. Must be coincidence. … Chapter 4 Next day is Saturday. I originally appointed play ball with bros. But due to last night first overtime, then suspected discovered Elena’s secret. This directly led to my insomnia. Listening bro roar on phone end: “Ethan comrade! One hour not come out you done for!” I a jolt climbed up from bed, topping two black circles crazy search clothes in front of closet. This time. Already ate breakfast Elena holding a cup coffee, steady passed by door. Shedding business suit she looked much gentler than usual. Features still exquisite bright, hair styled into my favorite slight curl style, home clothes collar loose open, exquisite white collarbone looming. Just like this walk passed. Left a burst nice smell light fragrance. I was tranced a bit by her beauty. Suddenly remembered last night guess. Dead mouth faster than brain a step: “Elena, can you… come over help me find a shirt?” Moment voice fell. Elena fierce stopped steps. Coffee cup slipped from her hand, shattered splashed on floor, issued violent sound. …Wow, so strong reaction. I somewhat scared, guilty lowered eyes: “Ah, that, if not okay then…” Words not finished. A figure leaned close. I subconsciously lift eyes, met Elena surging subtle dark tide eyes. “Can.” She voice calm spoke. I stunned a moment. Reacted after. Elena already tense body stood in front of closet, hands somewhat uneasy hang at side. Loosen again tighten, tighten again loosen. …She seems very nervous. Chapter 5 I hate organizing most. So closet somewhat messy. I scratched head. Tried hard describe to Elena that shirt I looking for: “Just a blue striped shirt, cuff has silver button…” Elena lowered eyelids, gaze fast search in closet. “Found it.” She certain said, slender finger probed into closet deep, then hooked out a blue striped underwear. Delicate fabric slightly swayed between her distinct knuckle fingers, flashing soft ambiguous luster. Me: “…” Elena: “…” I woodenly lifted head. Elena hand hooking underwear, again match her desire-less face, impact force strong amazing. Looked each other few seconds. I suddenly recover spirit, a grab underwear hide behind, face almost burn up: “No no no, no need find, I change one!” Elena lowered eyes stare floor, eyelashes not obvious trembled once, voice unusual hoarse: “…Good, then, then I go first.” Finished. Elena turned body. Steps took heavy and fast. But walking posture seemed somewhat awkward… I paused. Gaze probing move down. Breath fierce stagnate. Rapidly buried head dare not look random again. She she she, how can she like this?! But words say back. I bit fingernail. This reaction I seem only seen in novels ne… Chapter 6 I opened phone want comfort bro emotion. But saw a system notification message: [Thread you browsed updated.] I clicked open thread. Sure enough is yesterday that woman updated: [He today allowed me touch his things (Puppy cheer)] Excited puppy smell between lines almost overflow. Yesterday sarcastic netizens again swarmed into comment area: [Enough, dead Simp, what exactly you want?] [Stop it stop it, Sis is your husband want find his ex? I not stir trouble ha, he now suddenly willing talk to you, high probability is to confuse you, then find first love.] [Agree upstairs, Sis you wake up ba, he just for see first love, then had to give you a little benefit.] These comments flashed passed, almost instantly deleted. OP again fell into silence, only blindly second delete comments, other nothing do. I stared phone screen. Thought in mind more strong. This woman is Elena. Tsk. How so careless caught by me little secret ne? Chapter 7 Downstairs pass study time. Saw Elena right serious sit at desk reading documents. I steps pause, quietly watched her few seconds at door, ghost messenger god send said: “Elena, I go out la.” Elena slowly clenched palm. Voice dry replied: “…Good.” I thought thought again added a sentence: “I am going to find my best bro Lucas, you met him, just at our wedding…” Elena silent very long. “Mn.” She too calm. Seem simply not care same. Set off my explanation redundant and funny. I lowered head pursed lips. A wicked thought quietly surfaced. “Elena.” “Do you want… move to master bedroom?” “…” Elena didn’t lift head. Respond me. Is file in her hand suddenly be clenched, “Rip” a sound torn crack. Then just again no then. “…” I raised eyebrow. Force press down impulse rush up tear off her perfect mask. Turn leave. Slight not see behind Elena expression already completely dim. Chapter 8 Next day. I all listless. Just when I annoyed at how can expose Elena disguise time. Coincidentally heard beside bro call girlfriend. Two people because ex-girlfriend quarrel fierce, his current cry out of breath: “I eighteen just followed you, you just treat me like this, right?” Bro twitch mouth corner: “You want think so, then I also no way.” Little girl cried louder. Wow. I thoughtful two seconds. Try hard press down mouth corner. Re-find out that thread. Click Elena private message: “Your husband is called Ethan right.” Sent this private message. I originally thought Elena busy work. At least need one two hours can receive reply. Didn’t expect this girl actually second reply, everyday just know play phone ah. Elena tone carried full vigilance. “Who are you?” I calm down. Glanced my bro ex-girlfriend provocation current girlfriend words. Direct copy over: “Who am I? Hehe, I am Ethan ex-girlfriend Chloe, is that one dated with him four years.” “Miss Jiang, I already observed you few days, you guys look marriage not happy ne.” “I guess, he with you not happy at all right? You want know when we together how happy?” Elena silent very long. Finally reply me: “You say is then is?” “So clumsy scam technique, think I will believe? Think I am retard?” Person think self scammed how still possible talk so many words with scammer? I rolled eyes. Reply her: “He inner thigh has a tattoo.” This word out I regretted. Done for. My inner thigh where has tattoo? Have tattoo is my bro! Tattooed still his current girlfriend name Mia! But, also too late withdraw. Good thing Elena didn’t know I exactly have tattoo or not. Thinking here. I again sighed relief. See Elena late not reply. Simply intensify provocation: “No ba, no ba.” “You wouldn’t haven’t seen there ba?” “Wow oh, looks like I really guessed right, your marriage really terrible, you guys simply not love each other.” Elena didn’t refute. Maybe simply don’t know how refute. Finally only bite teeth question: “What do you want?” I lightly said: “Also nothing.” “Just tell you, I came back, I want re-together with Ethan.” Elena this time reply very fast, also very calm: “We already married.” Me: “I know ya, so what?” “I simply don’t care who he married, I just want be with him, as long as he willing let me re-return his side, I can accept any status.” “Of course, also include Mistress.” Elena: “He now already has me, he won’t accept you again, more won’t let you do what bullsh*t mistress, you give up heart ba!” Me: “Is it?” “But, Miss Jiang have heard,” “Not loved one is mistress, so you feel we two exactly who will become mistress ne?” “…” Elena seem angered fierce: “You this shameless bitch!” I hold laugh: “Thank you praise.” “Okay, I now going to pursue him, Miss Jiang, you prepare give way ba.” Elena didn’t speak again. Also didn’t give any reaction again. Tolerance comparable to a thousand year old turtle.

When the gentle Second Male Lead in a CEO Romance Novel was about to jump off a building because the heroine broke off their engagement. I, with a pregnant belly, shouted to stop him: “Mr. Hale, before you die, can you sign an Abortion Consent Form for me? I’m pregnant with your child!” The male lead looked at me, finally remembering, a few months ago he was drugged and had a one-night stand with a stranger, that woman was me! … Chapter 1 When I realized I was just an insignificant extra in a female-oriented CEO novel. The domineering CEO Second Male Lead Julian Hale, because he was publicly dumped by the heroine at the engagement party, couldn’t think straight and was standing on the rooftop of the 66th floor, ready to jump. This had nothing to do with me. As a nameless extra in the story, I didn’t have many scenes. The fleeting romance with him that night a few months ago was my entire role. But just now, I found out I was pregnant. The Pregnancy Test showed two lines. Pregnant with the CEO’s child, if I do nothing, it seems a bit too sorry for such a good opportunity! An opportunity that can change my destiny. He wants to die, but I want to rise to power through my child, so he better not die for now! So when one of his feet was about to hang in the air, I rushed to the rooftop and shouted at him: “Wait a minute!” Julian turned his head, frowning in confusion: “If it’s about salary, rest assured, the group employees’ salaries will be paid as usual after I die.” After speaking, he closed his eyes resignedly, intending to jump and end his unloved life. I looked down at the hotel uniform on my body, knowing he misunderstood. This hotel is also under Julian’s name. He probably thought I was afraid no one would pay me after he died, so I shouted to stop him. At the critical moment, I shouted to him again: “Mr. Hale, don’t jump yet! “I want to say, before you die, can you sign an abortion consent form for me first? I’m pregnant with your child! But I’m an orphan, the hospital won’t let me sign the consent form myself.” After speaking, to make myself look more pitiful, I looked at him with a pitiful and helpless look. Heard he is the most responsible person, I don’t believe he can close his eyes and jump after hearing I’m pregnant with his child! I’m betting, betting his sense of responsibility will make him give up jumping for this child temporarily. A few seconds later, he looked back at me in disbelief, carefully distinguishing the truth of my words. He has a child? When did it happen? How did he not know! Then after carefully examining me for a few times, the tips of his ears gradually turned red, and then his whole person was like a cooked shrimp. He remembered, about the absurdity of that night. The despicable Sebastian drugged his wine to rob Lila from him, and then he treated me, a hotel maid cleaning the room, as the antidote, cooked raw rice into cooked rice for a whole night. When he woke up in the morning, I had already fled in panic, leaving only a touch of red on the bed sheet. That was his first time, and also my first time. Thinking about it now, if I’m really pregnant, the child in my belly is really likely to be his. He indeed has the obligation to sign the abortion consent form for me. Thinking like this, he sighed. Feeling this child, came a bit untimely! Just happened when he wanted to seek death. But now, seeking death can only be paused. The stay or leave of the little baby in my belly is more important than his seeking death. After all, seeking death is his own business, and the child in my belly is related to my future. He has already hurt me once, I am innocent, he can’t watch helplessly as I face this matter alone. So he withdrew his foot from the edge of the rooftop and said to me: “When is your surgery, which hospital is it arranged in? I’ll sign the consent form for you.” Seems rumors are not false, he is indeed a very responsible person! I bet right! Chapter 2 In the next two days, Julian arranged all surgical matters for me in detail. From choosing the hospital, to the operating surgeon, to the Postpartum Recovery care after the abortion surgery, he arranged everything for me. Even afraid that after he jumped off the building, I wouldn’t have money to recover my body well, he gave me a card with $1 Million in it, saying it was compensation for my abortion. On the day of the surgery, he personally stared at me for twelve hours before the surgery, not letting me eat anything, then held my hand telling me not to be afraid, telling me this was just a minor surgery, he would wait outside all the time, and go to die after confirming the surgery was successfully completed. After he personally signed the surgery consent form for me, he waved to me, like a farewell sending me to the battlefield: “Go! If no accidents, we won’t meet again.” However, my appearance was the biggest accident. Five minutes later, the door of the operating room opened again. I walked carefully to him and said apologetically: “The doctor said I am now in the second trimester of pregnancy, abortion will be particularly harmful to me. After abortion, I may never have children again. “I regret it, can I keep this child? “I am an orphan, helpless, this child can be my only relative in the future, I will raise him well!” After speaking, I touched my slightly showing belly, looked at him with red eyes, like a puppy about to be abandoned, the look was just right. Julian hesitated, give birth? A child of his blood, if the child’s mother really wants this child, why not? In his opinion, that’s my business, he respects my choice. So the easy-to-talk Julian compromised with me again. His eyes lightly swept over my belly, then nodded: “Okay.” Done! Next, I just need to repeatedly jump on his bottom line! Because I found he is a soft bun easy to manipulate, not at all like the decisive killer rumored outside. In the matter of children, I can see the softness in his heart. He respects my choice very much, and he has been making concessions for this. Next, please watch my performance of holding the emperor to order the princes! Chapter 3 After giving up the surgery, Julian arranged for me again in order to die early. This time it took ten days. In these ten days, he bought a school district house with top elementary and middle schools nearby and gifted it to me and the child, as a place for me and the child to settle down. He also gave me a card with $5 Million, enough for me to raise the child to adulthood. And refunded the auntie hired to take care of my post-abortion recovery before, then booked a gold medal postpartum care center service for me, and paid the fee in one lump sum. Then when I said my aesthetic was bad and afraid his child would wear ugly clothes in the future, he waved his big hand again, prepared a room full of baby clothes for the child, from boy to girl styles, from birth to three years old, all prepared once. Crib, stroller, full set of baby supplies, all prepared! If not afraid of expiration, maybe milk powder and diapers he would also prepare in advance. After doing all this, he, who had no love for life, stood on the rooftop again one night. Still that rooftop, just last time he stood here watching the sunset, now he stands here watching the lights of thousands of families. When I rushed over, he was sitting very calmly on the edge outside the roof handrail, feet swinging, could fall down at any time. I watched with fear, but didn’t persuade him not to die. If a person is determined to die, he can’t be persuaded! Only delay! How long can delay, depends on his luck! I reached out and gently patted his shoulder, very politely said: “Sorry, disturb you again!” He was not impatient, just habitually frowned, intending to solve a new problem for me: “What’s wrong?” I said coyly: “I heard from the servants, you have lots and lots of money. If you die, this money will be carved up by your relatives. They didn’t treat you well before, calculated against you in various ways. “I just thought, instead of leaving the money to them, why not leave it to our child? “At least he is your only blood in this world, he didn’t bully you! I also have no grudge against you! “Fertile water does not flow into outsiders’ fields, instead of cheapening them, better cheapen your child!” After speaking, I pointed to my belly. Just at this moment, a lump suddenly protruded on my belly, it was fetal movement. My child moved! I think if he has perception, he will definitely agree with me. After all, as long as Julian agrees, he and I can struggle one hundred years less! Once born, he is a top rich second generation! Because Julian’s wealth comes from the accumulation of three generations of grandparents, it is not an exaggeration to say their family is filthy rich. This time Julian was silent for longer, but fortunately, finally he turned back and nodded slightly: “Also fine!” He was determined to die. After Lila abandoned him, he had no hope for this world,一心 (wholeheartedly) wanted to seek death. But I am not, the child in my belly also doesn’t want to die. We both want to live, want to live well. He felt what I said made sense. Instead of leaving the inheritance to those relatives who have grudges against him, better leave it to his own flesh and blood. He doesn’t need this money, but the child can need it! He finally decided to compromise with me again. When he climbed back over the railing, I reached out and supported him: “Slow down!” I was afraid he would accidentally fall, then the inheritance for the child in my belly would fly away. Of course there is another point, he is a very good and responsible person, I don’t want him to die, I want him to live well. After Julian landed smoothly, he reached out and took off his coat to drape over me. He said: “The wind is strong at night, you a pregnant woman, don’t catch a cold, it will be very troublesome!” I nodded, reached out unceremoniously to tighten the coat on my shoulders. The clothes had a faint, very nice smell, like some kind of shower gel smell, a sweet and refreshing scent, like morning dew on jasmine flowers. Chapter 4 Julian asked his assistant to liquidate all his assets, then called a lawyer in front of me, signed an agreement. In the future, no matter what accident happens to him, everything he has after death belongs to the child in my belly. In case this child cannot be born safely, all his property belongs to me. Before the child grows up, all his property is handed over to me for temporary custody. I suddenly went from an ordinary person to a top rich woman, lived in his mansion, drove his luxury car, travel with a driver to help drive, at home a nanny to help cook and beat legs, wearing famous brands all over, eating mountain delicacies and sea flavors. Although I am not his wife, the Hale family almost wants to offer me up like an ancestor, because their income in the future all depends on me! The term “mother expensive by child” is vividly displayed on me. When those relatives of his learned about this, each one jumped with anger. Even broke into my home and his office, finding faults with him in various ways. In order to solve them and shut them up, Julian spent a full ten days dealing with it this time. In these ten days, I saw what is called the thunderous means of a superior. He first released the scandal collected before, causing a rift between his third uncle and third aunt. The couple fought inextricably, then got busy, making a scene until divorce, and had no time to find fault with us. Then he gave the evidence of his cousin embezzling company reserve funds directly to the police, getting his cousin locked up, estimated to be in prison for several years. Then his two worrying uncles, Julian was afraid they would trouble me, directly cut off their cash flow, citing their poor work ability, transferred them to remote overseas branches, similar to exile. After doing all this, he took a shower, put on his favorite black suit, put on the watch the heroine gave him, and stood on the rooftop again. Even when passing by me, he smiled and greeted me: “Good evening! Baby needs nutrition, remember to eat more rice every day in the future, you are too thin.” He thought, this time, I would definitely be satisfied, and wouldn’t go to the rooftop to disturb his seeking death anymore. Because everything I wanted, I owned! He can die in peace! However, he underestimated my ambition and desire.
