In her previous life, my sister was adopted by a wealthy person but was not satisfied. In this life, she has taken away my corrupt life.
In her previous life, my sister was adopted by a wealthy person but was not satisfied. In this life, she has taken away my corrupt life.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day I was adopted.
"Tina, Gillian, come over here," called Maria. She was the director of the orphanage.
I was Tina, and the other girl was Gillian.
We ran over to Maria.
Maria explained that two women, Mrs. Sirena Glover and Mrs. Violet Holmes, were adopting us. Maria let Gillian and me make the choice.
Gillian sized up the two women. Sirena wore an expensive watch and carried a limited-edition shoulder bag. Her husband was the principal of a famous school.
Next to them were Mr. and Mrs. Holmes. They had a homely, hardworking aura.
In this life, Gillian threw herself into Violet's arms without hesitation. I realized she was reborn, too.
Gillian and I were both orphans.
At the orphanage, I thought we were close. We even looked alike, and everyone thought that we were real sisters, including Maria.
Gillian always hoped to be adopted by a wealthy family. Several families had intended to adopt her before, but she declined because they were just average financially. However, when Sirena, who looked rich, showed up, Gillian didn't choose Sirena.
"Tina, you can stay with Mrs. Glover. Let me live a poor life with a poor family. I am like your elder sister, so I am willing to make sacrifices for you."
Maria was puzzled.
But I knew the truth.
"Gillian, have you decided it?" Maria asked.
"Yes, I have, Maria. Don't try to let me change my mind again." As Gillian spoke, she held Violet's hand and walked towards the door.
Though Violet's family was poor, they were happy.
In my previous life, Nate Glover was good to me and always went against her. Gillian had always known that.
She wanted Nate to be good to her and see him bully me.
Gillian smiled and said, "Tina, embrace your good life in the rich family from now on."
Her smile was weird.
In my previous life, Gillian was adopted by the Glover family expectantly.
She thought she had stepped into the upper class, but it turned out to be the beginning of a nightmare.
The Glover family was indeed rich, with marble steps, luxurious carpets, and jade-carved statues. Everything was extravagant.
Anyone would be tempted.
And Mr. and Mrs. Glover had a son, Nate, who was very handsome.
He was tall, about six feet two inches high, with striking features. He always stood out in a crowd.
However, Gillian never imagined that Nate would hate her so thoroughly, showing no brotherly affection to her.
Once they quarreled, Gillian accidentally broke Nate's treasured jade pendant.
From then on, Nate started bullying her.
Besides, Sirena suffered from split personalities.
When she was in a good mood, she treated Gillian as her daughter. But when she was not, she abused Gillian.
Sirena suffered from split personalities after an accident ten years ago. She was pregnant with an eight-month-old baby, a daughter they had longed for. On the way to a church, the accident occurred, unfortunately. Sirena was unable to get pregnant after that. The trauma changed her completely.
Sirena adopted Gillian to replace her deceased daughter.
At school, Nate and his followers always found ways to torment her. They even forced her to clean the toilet.
After suffering a day of bullying, Gillian returned home only to face Sirena's bad mood.
That night, Sirena whipped Gillian until she was covered in wounds. Sirena even forced Gillian to eat rotten food and sleep in the basement.
Sirena was terrifying when she was in a bad mood.
Gillian suffered immensely.
When Sirena regained her senses, she acted as if nothing had happened.
At school, Gillian intended to vent her anger on me. But she saw Nate helping me with my market stall. She was even angrier when she remembered what she had suffered.
Strangely, Nate was exceptionally good to me. He was perhaps moved by my kindness and sincerity.
During the day, I helped Violet with her pop-up stand, and in the evening, I did part-time jobs.
Though I was adopted by a poor family, I led a happy life. And my adoptive parents treated me well.
Meanwhile, Gillian had to face bullying from Nate and suffer beatings from Sirena.
Eventually, Gillian couldn't bear it anymore.
If desire were a blade, their first encounter left him bleeding in silence. He'd built a life on peril and pleasure, armor forged from recklessness, never imagining a woman could make him lower his guard. But even with the truth veiled in lies, he was already in too deep-entangled in the game, and captivated by the player.
Abandoned as a child and orphaned by murder, Kathryn swore she'd reclaim every shred of her stolen birthright. When she returned, society called her an unpolished love-child, scoffing that Evan had lost his mind to marry her. Only Evan knew the truth: the quiet woman he cradled like porcelain hid secrets enough to set the city trembling. She doubled as a legendary healer, an elusive hacker, and the royal court's favorite perfumer. At meetings, the directors groaned at the lovey-dovey couple, "Does she really have to be here?" Evan shrugged. "Happy wife, happy life." Soon her masks fell, and those who sneered bowed in awe.

In the face of her so-called sister's envy, Yelena conquered every adversity and took her revenge, all while showcasing her talents. She soon caught the attention of the city's most eligible bachelor. He cornered Yelena and pinned her against the wall. “It's time to reveal your true identity, darling.”
