Tatiana Gold’s life ended tragically in the sea, the result of a meticulously planned murder. But her death wasn’t the end—it marked the rebirth of one of the timeline’s top assassins, sharing her name and a mysterious connection to her fate. Reborn into a life no less complicated, Tatiana faces the loss of her mother, the cold indifference of her father, and the calculating presence of a stepmother and stepsister who watch her every move. Meanwhile, the eldest daughter of the Gold family stuns society by marrying into the powerful Konstantine family, New York’s elite dynasty. Their union is the talk of the town—an unlikely pairing that raises countless questions. But as Tatiana’s many hidden identities come to light, the truth begins to unravel, and with it, the balance of power in their world.
View MoreAs Tatiana thought this, she had no idea that the girl's expression changed drastically upon hearing her mention Cordelia's name. The friendly demeanor she had just moments ago turned sour. "I don’t know any Cordelia Haves. You need to leave right now! I don’t need your help, so just go!”Tatiana was taken aback by the children's strong reaction. She glanced at the two people behind her, who seemed to share the same sentiment and clearly didn't like her.So, she and Maxim watched as the three of them walked away.Once they were far enough, Maximspoke up, "Those kids are probably Cordelia's children."Tatiana turned, surprised. "How do you know that?”Maxim shot her an incredulous look as they continued walking. "Are you kidding? I saw what Cordelia looked like when I was a kid. Plus, those kids reacted so strongly when you mentioned her; it’s obvious they know her. I’ve never heard anyone say that Cordelia has relatives around here. And even if she did, why would they leave those kid
"I'm fine. I just got upand washed up a bit. What could possibly be wrong? Do I look like someone who suddenly got sick?"She shot Maxim a glance and walked toward the dining room. She was surprised by his keen observation. She had been upstairs for quite a while, yet he still noticed her pale complexion. Was this really the kind of insight an ordinary person should have?As she thought about it, for the first time, Tatiana began to deeply question Maxim's true identity.Watching Tatiana's retreating figure, Maxim wondered if he was overreacting. She didn’t seem sick at all; maybe her complexion had just been like that lately? He frowned, struggling to convince himself of his reasoning. But looking at Tatiana, she really did seem fine. In the end, he concluded that he was just too concerned about her.In the dining room, after finishing their meal, Tatiana noticed the time was still early. "Since it's still early, I remember that Cordelia lives a bit far, but it won’t take us too l
That was a pretty remote place, and Maxim frowned slightly.Having asked what they wanted to know, neither of them felt like lingering any longer. After chatting casually for a bit, they decided it was time to leave.Just as they were about to walk out, Tatiana suddenly remembered something. "So, what happened to Cordelia and George?”Rowena paused for a moment, then spoke with a hint of resentment, "They ended up together, got married, and even had kids, while I...""Weren't you married later on?" Tatiana raised an eyebrow, curious."I had two kids once, but they both died because of Cordelia..." As she said this, Rowena suddenly broke down, her anger toward Cordelia palpable. "That bitch! I treated her like a good friend, and she poisoned my water! She killed my child and Geroge's child... my baby..."Tatiana frowned, not knowing what to say. She exchanged a glance with Tatiana, ready to leave. As they stepped outside and saw a caregiver approaching, she thought for a moment and
Rowena took the tissue and slowly shook her head at Tatiana. "These thoughts have been in my mind for too long. No one has come to see me, and I don't know who else to talk to. Now that you’re here, I want to share this with you."Tatiana felt a sense of helplessness and nodded at Rowena. "Alright then, if you can't hold it in, you can take a break for a moment."Rowena truly took a moment to breathe, watching the sun rise slowly outside before continuing, "I never told her about my relationship with George, and I asked George not to be too nice to me in front of her. Even when Cordelia asked me for help, I started assisting her. I told her what George liked to eat and what books she enjoyed. And so, time just passed by.”"But there was one thing that got exposed. Cordelia confessed her feelings to George without my knowledge. Because of Cordelia, George and I haven't had any intimate moments lately; I was afraid of being discovered by Cordelia. I never expected that Cordelia would
"You guys are here?" Hearing Tatiana call her name, Rowena turned her wheelchair around to face Maxim and Tatiana."I heard from your caregiver that you haven't been feeling well lately. Is that true?" Tatiana stepped closer to Rowena and asked.Rowena grimaced, as if to confirm Tatiana's words. "Ever since the last time you came to see me, I've felt this constant unease in my heart. I can't shake off the guilt. With how I feel, how could I possibly get better?"Maxim finally reacted, a hint of confusion crossing his face. "Guilt? What are you feeling guilty about?"Farrah's weary eyes stared ahead. When she heard Maxim's question, her expression flickered slightly, though it wasn't very noticeable on her wrinkled face. She began to speak slowly, "It's something that happened a long time ago. You both know that I'm from your grandfather's generation. I used to work as a gardener at their house. Everything was fine back then; I was young and planned to finish this job and thenmove on
Tatiana was taken aback but managed to keep her expression neutral. She shot Maxim a glare and held the pill bottle up to him. “Take a good look for yourself. Is this medicine? It’s vitamins! You must be really hoping I’m sick.”After confirming that the bottle contained vitamins and seeing Maxim's expression, which didn't seem sick at all, Tatiana decided not to mention it. Instead, he got up and headed to the bathroom to freshen up.What he didn’t know was that, just out of his sight, Tatiana's tense and fearful expression instantly relaxed.She placed her medication back into her bag and watched Maxim as he washed up. Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath, feeling a moment of relief—almost, just almost..."What are you doing?" Maxim asked, stepping out of the bathroom and noticing Tatiana standing still, looking a bit lost. He was puzzled but didn’t dwell on it. "You didn’t eat dinner last night. Aren't you hungry? I’ll go downstairs and ask the kitchen to make something you
"Why are you here alone?" Seeing Tara, Tatiana ended the call and walked toward her."Teacher..." When Tara saw Tatiana approaching, all the sadness she had been carrying seemed to vanish in an instant. She rushed forward and hugged Tatiana tightly, bursting into tears.“Shh, don’t cry anymore…” Tatiana said gently, looking at the girl in her arms, unsure of how to comfort her.“I’m fine now, teacher. Let’s just go back,” Tara replied, finally releasing her grip on Tatiana after she had calmed down. She offered a shy smile before continuing, “I’m ready.”“Alright, let’s grab a bite to eat first,” Tatiana said.The two of them went for a simple meal before heading back to Tatiana’s house with Taa.Once they were home, Tatiana helped Tara unpack her things, then sat down and asked, “Tara, you mentioned on your phone yesterday that you often feel like someone is following you when you’re alone, right?”Tara paused for a moment before nodding. “Yeah, but I didn’t feel that way today. I’
Meanwhile, Maxim was unaware of what was happening on that side. After hanging up the phone, he answered Tatiana's earlier question, "We won’t go bankrupt. You’ll just have to support me again.”Such shameless words slipped from his lips, causing Tatiana to roll her eyes at him as she popped a piece of fruit into her mouth.Seeing that Maxim had already booked the time for their meeting, Tatiana finished her fruit in the study and decided to leave.After a quick wash-up in her bedroom, Tatiana was about to settle down for the night when her phone rang. She glanced at the screen and saw it was Tara. She got up to answer the call."Hello? Tara? Why are you calling so late? Is something wrong?"There was a brief silence on the other end before Tara spoke, "Ms. Tatiana, I don't want to study here anymore.""Why not?" Tatiana asked, her voice calm as she stood up."I just can't focus here anymore." Tara sounded a bit upset, her voice hoarse. "I didn't tell the teachers because I didn't w
When she woke up again, she checked her phone and saw that it was already past six o'clock. She got up slowly, planning to grab some dinner and wait for Maxim to come home.Just as she was happily thinking about this, she went downstairs and saw Maxim sitting on the couch, looking at his phone. Surprised to see him home so early, Tatiana wondered, "Isn't his usual work day until seven? Why is he back so soon?"Perhaps it was the intensity of Tatiana's gaze that made Maxim look up from his phone and turn his attention to her."Why are you back so early today? I was planning to wait in the living room after dinner to surprise you," Tatiana said with a sigh, realizing her plan had backfired."Did you sort things out at school?" Maxim asked as Tatiana walked closer. "I've already asked the kitchen to prepare dinner, so let's eat first."Tatiana nodded and followed him to the dining room.After they finished their meal, Tatiana suddenly remembered something and asked, "Did anyone call yo
The sea breeze brushed against her face, and the sound of birds chirped in the distance."Just dump her here. What a stroke of bad luck.""Dying on this ship is going to cause me so much trouble. We need to get rid of her now”.Tatiana struggled to open her eyes. Suddenly, she was thrown out by a force, and she began to plummet rapidly.Thud!Her body crashed into the deep blue sea!Her consciousness began to fade…Suddenly—The woman floating in the water snapped her eyes open.Tatiana smirked, her eyes glinting with cold light and murderous intent.She quickly absorbed the memories flooding into her mind.She had been reborn in a parallel world, where the original owner shared her name and even her appearance.The original Tatiana had been arranged by her stepmother to be thrown onto a boat headed for another city.She had developed peritonitis and, when she was about to die the captain decided to toss her into the sea at just 18 years old.As the world’s number one assassin, now th...
