Alia is a skilled thief who, in search of a legendary treasure, sneaks into a castle under the cover of night. However, she unexpectedly witnesses the castle’s owner, the handsome and cold-hearted billionaire Marcellus, murder his wife. In the chaos of her escape, Alia is discovered and killed by him. But death isn’t the end. Alia wakes up to find herself reborn a year earlier, this time in the body of the wife Marcellus had killed—Livia. Faced with the man who had once killed her, now acting outwardly kind but still harboring deadly intentions, Alia knows she must uncover the truth within a year and avoid the same tragic fate. Her plan? Escape the castle and steal the treasure. During her time in the castle, Alia discovers that Livia’s identity is far from simple, and she soon finds herself tangled in a deeper conspiracy. Marcellus’s younger brother, Elias, has a close, secret relationship with Livia, one that seems to involve hidden feelings. As Alia secretly investigates Marcellus’s true intentions, she is drawn to his conflicting mixture of gentleness and coldness. At the same time, the body of Livia compels her to develop feelings for Elias, whose tender care for her awakens a sense of warmth. Caught in a whirlwind of emotions, Alia realizes that every person’s motives are more complex than they first appear, and she must make difficult choices between truth, revenge, love, and survival. As the one-year deadline approaches, the conspiracy unfolds, and Marcellus’s true intentions toward Livia are exposed. Alia finally finds a chance to escape. But with emotions tangled and fate inextricably linked to the castle, will she choose revenge and freedom, or will she find redemption and true love within the deadly walls of the castle?

Chapter 1: You Killed Your Wife, and You Killed Me

The night was dark and quiet, like a thick, inky shadow. A woman dressed in black slipped silently through the shadows toward the castle ahead. The moonlight cast a faint glow on her slender figure, outlining her graceful shape even in the night. The castle was a classic piece of medieval European architecture, with tall, towering spires and thick stone walls that looked both grand and eerie. Alia smirked slightly, muttering to herself, “Doesn’t seem too hard. A place this big, and no guards in sight? This should be a piece of cake.”Even though she felt relaxed, Alia’s movements were precise and careful. She pulled out a detailed map of the castle from her bag, studying it in the dim light. With a confident nod, she silently slipped inside. Her eyes were sharp, quickly memorizing every hallway and corner. There were no guards, but infrared sensors were everywhere. Trained from a young age, Alia was more than used to these challenges. She moved skillfully, evading every sensor like a ...

Chapter 2: Reborn as the Wife He Killed
“How…how can it be him…” Alia’s heart raced as she stared in disbelief. The gunshot from last night seemed to still echo in her ears, and the cold, unyielding face was vivid in her memory. Yet here was Marcellus, no longer ruthless and indifferent. His gaze was soft, almost tender, filled with a strange mix of love and unease, as if she were his most cherished treasure.“You… you…” Alia tried to speak, but her voice was hoarse. She forced herself to calm down, struggling to keep a steady expression. However, her wide eyes betrayed a sense of shock and fear she could not hide, and her trembling hands revealed the turmoil within her.Marcellus noticed her reaction, and with surprising gentleness, he lowered his head and held her hand firmly. “I know you’re still weak. Don’t worry. Whatever you want to say, you can tell me after you’ve rested.” His hand was warm and reassuring, conveying a comforting strength. But to Alia, this warmth only intensified her dread.Images from the night bef

Chapter 3: Livia, Don’t You Remember Me?
Alia gracefully took a seat on the sofa across from him, masking her inner frustration with a gentle smile. Pretending to be a noble lady is truly exhausting. If I were in my original body, I could have leaped across the room in a few strides. Now, these legs are so weak, overly delicate. Despite her irritation, her face maintained an appearance of soft, elegant composure, her every gesture smooth and refined. She turned her head and softly instructed Elise, “Elise, could you bring some tea for Elias and me?”Elise nodded respectfully and left to prepare the tea.As soon as the door closed, Elias wasted no time. He stood up and sat down right next to Alia, startling her with his sudden closeness. She shifted a little away. Then, his deep, slightly teasing voice reached her ear, “Alia, are you feeling better? I was only away for a month at Marcellus’s command, and I return to find you gravely ill.”Alia stole a glance at Elias. He leaned casually against the sofa, his handsome features

Chapter 4: Mother and Father
Elise returned to the study with a tea tray, only to find that Elias was already gone. She blinked in mild confusion before setting the tea gently on the table in front of Alia. Alia, feeling a surge of anxiety, seized the opportunity to ask casually, “Elise, what kind of person is Elias? What’s your impression of him?”A shy blush appeared on Elise’s cheeks as she stammered, “Well… he’s very handsome… but, hmm, I guess he doesn’t get along very well with Master Marcellus.”Alia’s heart skipped a beat, and she continued to lead her gently, “Oh? Why do you say that?”Elise gave a small smile, as if hesitant to say too much but continued honestly, “Though he’s not involved in the family business like Master Marcellus, he’s often sent by him on these mysterious errands. Every time he returns, he looks exhausted. I’ve heard no one really knows what these tasks are about.”Elise glanced cautiously at Alia’s expression, then hesitated before adding, “Actually… you and Elias seem quite close

Chapter 5: The Family Banquet Begins
Time drifted by quietly, and dusk soon approached. Alia saw a young woman with a resemblance to herself entering the room. Her steps were light and graceful, and she greeted Alia with a warm smile, her voice sweet and gentle. “Sister, you look so well today! You’ve recovered faster than I imagined.” Alia nodded slightly, a polite smile gracing her lips as she replied, “Thank you for coming to keep me company. Let’s enjoy a good time together today.”This young beautiful woman was her younger sister, Lianna. She seemed demure and affectionate, chatting with Alia about recent events and family affairs, as though the two shared a close bond as always. It was clear Lianna had heard of Alia’s memory loss; she kept the conversation casual, asking about her sister’s health with a warm tone.However, Alia’s sharp eyes, trained from her days as a thief, detected something unusual. She noticed that Lianna’s gaze occasionally roamed around the room, as if waiting for someone to appear. When Alia

Chapter 6: Who want to kill Livia?
In the lavish dining hall, a long table was set with exquisite silverware. Marcellus sat at the head of the table, radiating an air of authority. To his right sat Elias, lounging casually, with a hint of a smile. Alia was seated to Marcellus’s left, with Lianna beside her, and directly across from Lianna was Adrian, who looked uneasy, his posture tense.Alia couldn’t help but sigh internally, thinking, “Rich people’s meals are such a hassle.” In her previous life, meals were simple and quick. Now, sitting in such a grand setting, she felt strangely out of place, but the food seems good.The table was laden with an array of delicacies. First, a creamy lobster bisque, with tender lobster meat perfectly infused with rich, buttery flavors, practically begged her to take another sip. Then came golden-brown lamb chops, exuding the earthy aroma of herbs, with juices oozing out at every cut. Alia couldn’t help but be impressed by the quality of the food.There were also colorful salads, artfu

Chapter 7: A Tense Dinner
Alia felt a storm brewing inside her as she heard Elias’s words. Her coma wasn’t just due to an illness! She had always thought it was ‘her’ own body’s weakness, but now she realized there was a conspiracy—someone had actually tried to harm Livia. Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, Alia knew the guests at this banquet must hold more clues, so she used her sharp instincts to observe them carefully, hoping to catch some hint of the truth in their expressions.Elias’s anger was barely restrained, his gaze sharp as a blade aimed at Marcellus, tinged with a long-held frustration. Marcellus’s expression, however, was unreadable—mixed with regret and fury, as though battling some tangled emotion within. Alia scrutinized him, trying to interpret the true meaning behind his demeanor, but even her keen intuition couldn’t fully unravel it. As for Lianna and Adrian, they simply looked shocked, clearly unaware and even a bit fearful as they watched the argument unfold.Elias’s pointed accusation

Chapter 8: Shall We Bathe Together?
Alia felt her heart skip a beat, but she maintained a calm expression, giving a slight nod as she stepped into the room. The door closed softly behind her, sealing out the cold air of the corridor. Though she appeared composed, her guard was fully raised. Tonight wasn’t just an evening of private conversation—it was an opportunity to uncover the truth.Marcellus moved closer, his gaze lingering on her with an intensity that felt both familiar and distant. There was something unusual about his demeanor tonight, as if he wasn’t speaking merely as her husband but with a deeper, hidden purpose.Alia kept her emotions in check, lowering her eyes as she gracefully sat on the sofa. The flickering candlelight bathed the room in a warm glow, but the grandeur of the paintings and antique furniture only added to the stifling atmosphere.Unsure if Marcellus suspected anything about Livia’s secret relationship with Elias, Alia decided to remain silent, observing how he would steer the conversation

Chapter 9: Miss you so much
The words came out of nowhere, striking Alia’s heart like a gentle blow, sending a ripple of emotion through her that left her momentarily flustered. Years of training, however, allowed her to quickly compose herself. She lowered her gaze to hide her subtle reaction, feigning indifference as she replied lightly, “You go first. I’ll bathe later.” She deliberately added a touch of casualness to her tone to mask the tension she felt inside.Marcellus said nothing more but gave her a meaningful glance. His deep, penetrating eyes seemed to pierce through her pretense, seeking the emotions she had hidden. The intensity of his gaze made Alia feel as though needles pricked her back, her chest tightening under the pressure. Yet, she forced herself to remain calm, only relaxing when he turned and walked into the bathroom.The sound of running water came from behind the closed door. Alia stood frozen in place, her thoughts unexpectedly chaotic. It was only natural for her to share a room with Ma

Chapter 10: Kisses and Tears
Alia’s body went stiff. Her instincts screamed at her to resist, but her thoughts were a chaotic tangle, leaving her utterly clueless about what to do. In her previous life as a thief, she had navigated countless dangerous missions and lived a rough, unpolished life. She had even disguised herself as a man and shared rooms with other men. Yet, never before had she been so close to a man’s essence like this. The situation felt overwhelmingly intimate.What made it worse—or perhaps more perplexing—was that this man before her wasn’t just any man. He was stunningly handsome, exuding an innate masculinity that left her both unsettled and faintly spellbound.Her internal alarms blared, but her body refused to obey. Her hands clutched at the bedsheet, her chest heaving with rapid breaths. After all, the man leaning over her was, in name at least, her husband. His nearness, his intimacy—it could all be justified. If she rejected him now, wouldn’t it raise his suspicions? Would he think she w
