"I'm willing to marry you." Jared Brooks and his brother, Shiloh, turned their heads. Standing before them was a woman in a wedding dress, but this was no ordinary bride. Her gown was stained with dirt and blood, her mascara streaked down her cheeks, and her makeup a ruined mess. Today was supposed to be Julia Watson's wedding day. She was set to marry her fiancé, Carter Ross, until her so-called best friend, Vivien Smith, announced to everyone that she and Carter were expecting a baby—and were in love. Shattered by the betrayal of her fiancé and best friend, Julia was ready to give up. That was until she spotted Jared Brooks, the CEO of Brooks Corporation, at the courthouse. "Who are you?" Jared asked, puzzled by the stranger's proposal. Jared had no intention of marrying a stranger, and even his brother found the idea absurd. He was about to leave when Julia made an irresistible promise: she could cure his brother's legs. "I'm Julia Watson of the Watson family," she introduced herself. Jared assumed Julia sought revenge against her ex-fiancé by marrying him. Little did he know, Julia harbored two dark secrets. First, she had a mission to complete. Second, she wasn't really Julia Watson.

Chapter 1: Rebirth

“If we continue with this, she will die! She’s your fiancée!”

The doctor uttered in panic. Bullets of sweat formed on his back and forehead. He looked at the man who was standing on the side. His handsome face showed no emotions as he stared at the woman on the hospital bed. Her body looked pale and lifeless. 

Meanwhile, the man’s eyes were filled with indifference and emptiness.

“As if she deserves to live. This kind of woman does not even deserve to be my wife.”

The woman felt a sudden wave of pain through her body.

‘What happened?’ she thought, feeling strange.

She only remembered getting betrayed and trapped by her subordinates during the mission. She thought she was going to die.

‘Why do I still feel pain? The explosion definitely crushed me into powder.’

She slowly fluttered her eyes open. Her vision was blurry, and she could vaguely see figures in white coats moving before her.

‘Am I still alive? Am I in a hospital?’ she wondered.

Before she found out the answers to her questions, a pounding headache attacked her. It was followed by a series of memories that didn’t belong to her. It was so painful that she almost screamed.

Slowly, she realized that she indeed died. But for some reason, she was reborn in a different woman's body.

The body of Julia Watson, the same name as her.

Standing near her was Carter Ross, the fiancé of Julia Watson. Today was supposed to be their wedding day, but Julia’s best friend rushed into the wedding hall and proclaimed that she was with Carter’s child. The most shocking thing was that she claimed that she and Carter loved each other.

She begged Julia to help her. Then she pretended that Julia had pushed her and was taken to the hospital.

The blood type of Julia’s best friend was quite rare. Coincidentally, she and her best friend have the same blood type.

To save her, Carter did everything so they could transfer her blood to the woman.

Julia was deep in her thoughts when the man’s cold and fierce voice echoed in the room.

“She’s a despicable woman. A snake! She can’t die easily. You can continue.”

‘He’s so cruel and heartless!’

Julia clenched her fists. She could feel the painful tug in her heart.

She couldn’t even control the pain. It felt natural, like a reaction or instinct.

Julia realized that it might be the reaction of the original owner of the body, who suffered heavily.

Starting from now, she would be the new Julia Watson. She would make sure that everyone who hurt her would suffer from the consequences!

“She’s in shock. Her body’s struggling!” The doctor yelled.

“Hold her down!” Carter demanded and went toward the bed to hold Julia’s hand.

Julia resisted with all her strength. She pulled her leg from the doctor’s hold and kicked the nurse who was pinning her down. Then, she jumped and rolled over, barely escaping the hands of the people around her.

Julia sat up on the bed, breathing heavily. Her eyes narrowed slightly. Sweat dripped down her neck as her eyes scanned the room.

The nurses and the doctors froze, watching Julia in awe.

At that moment, Carter stood in front of Julia. His glaring eyes remained on her. “What’s up with you, Julia? Lie down on the bed! Vivien still needs your blood!” He said impatiently.

Julia watched him with emotionless eyes. “Why? Why would you sacrifice me to save Vivien’s life?” she sternly asked.

“Why?” Carter shouted. “What do you mean why? If it weren’t for your madness, she wouldn’t be here in the first place! You pushed her, remember?”

Julia scoffed. “Did you really believe her? Are you deaf? I told you that she pretended to fall! She’s the crazy one here, but you kept blaming me.”

Julia explained to him over and over again inside the wedding hall. She was in tears. However, Carter refused to believe her.

“Shut up! I saw you push her. With my own eyes, Julia! Stop lying to me,” he replied. His face was red with anger and disgust.

ulia shook her head. “Really? Then, your eyes are deceiving you.” Her tone dripped with sarcasm.

“What did you say?” Carter asked as if he couldn’t believe what she had just said. Julia had always been obedient and submissive. Carter could say whatever he wanted and wouldn’t hear a word back. The words she just said didn’t seem to come out of her mouth at all.

Julia stood up from bed. Due to excessive blood loss, her body was weak and trembling.

Carter’s last ounce of patience vanished. “I’ll say it again,” he said darkly. “Go back to the bed. Or else I’ll send you straight to the police station. You deserve to be punished, after all.”

Julia ignored his threat and slowly stepped towards him. She raised her chin and whispered, “Aren’t you stubborn? Well, I have a way to make you believe.”

 “Julia! Didn’t you hear what I said just now? Don’t test my patience! Go back—” Suddenly, Julia’s fist landed on his stomach, cutting him off.

Carter let out a muffled moan, feeling the pain in his abdomen. He slowly fell to his knees as his face turned red and purple. His veins were bulging on his temples.

‘What the hell? Where did she get her strength?’ he thought.

Carter looked up but Julia already left the room.

Enduring the stabbing pain in his stomach, Carter got up and quickly chased after her.

Meanwhile, Julia managed to get into the VIP section of the hospital, where Vivien was located. She entered her room and locked it.

Carter’s eyes widened when he saw where Julia had gone. His fists pounded the door as he shouted through the observation window. “Julia! Open the door! I’m warning you! Don’t you dare lay a finger on her! If you harm her, I’ll kill you. I swear!”

Julia ignored Carter’s threats and continued walking towards Vivien’s bed.

Vivien's face was as pale as paper.

“Sure, Vivien Smith. I’ll give you a score of sixty for your acting skills. It’s hardly fine,” Julia said.

Upon hearing Julia’s words, Vivien almost couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

‘You’re just a useless person who knows nothing. What’s your point? You think you’re better than me because of your family and status?’

Just like what Vivien had thought, Julia grabbed her hand.

She faked a whimper. “Julia… Please… Don’t hurt my baby. Don’t drag my baby to our mess. Wait for me to give birth to my child; then you can have your revenge. Not now, please.”

Her fake tears started to fall as she finished her pitiful speech. From an innocent person’s perspective, she really seemed miserable and distressed.

Carter continued pounding the door outside. His blasphemous words against Julia faintly sounded in the room.

Julia put Vivien’s hand down and stood next to her bed. Her gaze was focused on her face. “Vivien, you are not really pregnant. We both know that.”

Vivien’s eyes widened slightly. She looked at Julia in disbelief.

‘How did she know? Did she grab my hand to feel my pulse?’ she pondered.

‘Impossible!’

‘Julia doesn’t know anything about medicine and pregnancies. She’s just toying with me!’

“W-What are you talking about? I don’t understand you, Julia. Can’t you see my state right now? Just don’t hurt my baby. Please, help us survive.”

‘Still pretending?’ Julia thought.

She smirked at her. “Vivien, do you want to make a bet? In just five minutes, I can expose your little secret.”

Her smile widened. Vivien felt a wave of nervousness as she looked at her evil expression.

‘What is she going to do?’

Before Vivien knew it, Julia raised her hand and aimed it at her face. Vivien screamed, feeling the pain in her face and head.

Chapter 2: I Am Willing to Marry You
The sound of Julia’s slap was loud and clear.Vivien was caught off-guard. Her wide and terrified eyes stared at Julia.However, this was not over yet.Julia raised her hand again. All of a sudden, another slap landed on Vivien’s cheek.“Ah!” Vivien screamed in pain. Julia’s slap was heavier than the first one. Vivien couldn’t bear it anymore, and she covered her swollen face as she cried in pain.“Vivien!” Carter called, looking at her helplessly. He then transferred his eyes to Julia, angry. He fisted his hands and imagined torturing her.“Julia! Stop it! Stop it for me!”Julia stopped. Her head turned toward Carter, raising her brow. She looked at him briefly before slapping Vivien’s face again.She wanted to see how long Vivien would be able to endure it. She wanted to know how long she could keep her façade.“Julia! Stop it. You’re hurting me. I’m begging you—Ouch!”Vivien’s cries fell on deaf ears. Julia continued hitting her, increasing the strength of her slaps every time. Viv

Getting married to Jared and becoming part of the Brooks family was her plan. She had faith that she could definitely complete the mission this time!Jared’s eyes scanned Julia from head to toe. Her face was a mess! Her mascara and eye shadow were splattered all over, and her tattered wedding dress had some red stains, which looked like blood.She looked like a jilted bride who got robbed or something.“Who are you?”Julia raised her chin. “I’m Julia Watson of the Watson family.”Jared glanced at Shiloh. “Do you think I’ll believe you?” he coldly asked her. His eyebrows were furrowed.“Whether you believe me or not, it doesn’t matter. You’ll run a background check on me anyway,” she calmly responded.Jared’s cold eyes widened slightly, curious about what she had just said.“Come on. Time is ticking. Your supposed bride stood you up, and I just found out that my fiancé was in love with someone else during my wedding ceremony. We are both the biggest losers today, so why don’t we partne

Chapter 4: Unexpected
Julia stood quietly at the bottom of the stairs, looking like a deity from a painting.Slowly, she walked toward them. The two brothers’ gaze remained on her, mesmerized and curious.‘Is she really the ugly woman we met earlier?’ Shiloh thought. If it weren’t for him seeing Julia come out of the room with his own eyes, he would have never believed that the girl in front of him was Julia, the woman who married his brother. Julia approached Jared and gave her a small smile. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.”Then, she plopped on the sofa and let out an audible sigh. She brought her feet to the chair and hugged her knees like this place was her home.Jared watched Julia’s movements with furrowed brows.‘Is that my shirt?’ he thought.True to his thoughts, it was indeed his shirt. Julia noticed his piercing gaze. “Oh. This shirt? I couldn’t find any other clothes back there. I can’t come out here with just a towel, right?” she explained.Jared looked at the shirt on her bo

Chapter 5: Encountering
‘This woman is too liberated!’ Jared angrily thought. It wouldn’t matter if it was only two of them here, but his younger brother was also here!Julia looked at Jared and tilted her head. She had a good figure, so he should feel lucky. Now, he was looking at her as if he would have an eye problem if he stared at her body for so long.“Fine. I think you believe me now. I’ll go back to my room.” She hugged the suit in her body and walked towards the staircase. Her slender and firm legs were displayed in front of them.Julia couldn’t help but think as she walked. She kept on thinking about the two brothers and how to complete her task.Also, she couldn’t be blamed for this. The mansion was huge and covered an area about the same as the palace of a certain country she had been to before.Finding something like that in such a huge place was like finding a needle in a haystack.Not to mention that she just arrived here. She couldn’t move around freely yet. Otherwise, people would start susp

Chapter 6: Interaction
Over the phone, Julia reiterated to Lanco's owner what had happened in the store. With her explanation complete, she ended the call, turned her gaze toward the salesperson, and said, "You go get your phone. You'll receive a call soon."The salesperson's lips twitched involuntarily, his mind grappling with the possibility of Julia's claim. Her assertion about being a friend of the Lancôme owner seemed all the more credible now."You seem so sure, huh? Wanna make a bet?" Naomi interjected, her voice dripping with sarcasm, as she fixed her gaze on Julia. "If she doesn't receive a call later, you'll slap your face. How's that?"Julia wasn't threatened or faltered at all by what Naomi said. Instead, she was irritated at the audacity of Naomi, someone she considered beneath her, daring to belittle her.Unfazed by the challenge, she countered, her voice steady, "And if you lose, you'll be doing the same."Naomi's chin lifted, confidence oozing from every pore, as she readily accepted, "Consi

Chapter 7: Kisses
At that moment, realization dawned on Jared as he grasped the true intent behind Julia's action. She had only added him on Facebook to transfer money for her meal. As a man of considerable wealth and influence and the CEO of Brook Corporation, Jared couldn't help but feel a sting in his pride. However, he chose not only to accept the money but to reciprocate by returning more than a hundredfold of the amount Julia had transferred.A sense of dignity still in place, he stated firmly, "Consider this the medical fee."Julia was taken aback, momentarily stunned by his unexpected gesture. Yet, she quickly regained her composure and responded, "Your brother was right. I committed to helping him cure his leg, and you agreed to our marriage certificate. You owe me nothing beyond that. There's no need to transfer money to me."Despite the generosity of the sum, Julia's assertion stood firm. She didn't need money. In fact, in her previous life, she had amassed a fortune beyond imagination. Thus

Chapter 8: Accident
As the imminent kiss hung in the air, Julia abruptly halted the playful charade, rising from her position over Jared.With a serene demeanor, she addressed Shiloh, her tone matter-of-fact yet tinged with a hint of mischief, "Just a friendly reminder for next time: avoid the commanding tone, or I might actually get carried away and develop a very close relationship with your brother. Perhaps more than just a kiss."Shiloh's frustration and anger reached a boiling point. "I don't need you to heal me anymore! Just leave!" he thundered, his voice echoing with indignation.Julia appeared unperturbed, her focus shifting to the task at hand. She retrieved a list from her bag and handed it to Jared. "Here's the prescription I've prepared for your brother. Take it to a pharmacy tomorrow and have it filled by the professionals there. It's better not to attempt making the medicine yourself. A small mistake could greatly affect its efficacy. Let the experts handle it. Also, arrange a set of silv

Chapter 9: Hitting
Julia slightly inclined her head towards Jared, her eyes betraying no hint of emotion. "Thank you, but no need to trouble yourself," she politely declined.With those words, Julia stepped out, swiftly shutting the door behind her.Jared remained in his spot, his deep eyes locked onto the closed door.A few moments later, he retrieved his phone and dialed a number."Please look into what's happening with the Watson family," he instructed the person on the other end."Understood, boss," said the person on the other end of the line.Shiloh approached during this exchange and overheard Jared's conversation. He regarded his elder brother curiously."Why are you investigating this, brother?""Don't you think she was very strange just now?" Jared asked back.Jared's query prompted Shiloh to recall Julia's odd behavior moments ago. It was indeed peculiar and somewhat unsettling. He had also sensed a formidable aura from her, similar to his brother's when he was enraged.However, Shiloh realiz

Chapter 10: Counterattack
Julia found it intriguing.Yasmin was truly adept at spinning lies, as was her usual nature.Conrad turned his head to look at Julia and pondered her recent statement. She had claimed to be an apprentice of the Divine Doctor, while Yasmin boasted about finding the Divine Doctor's Holy Hand. It left him puzzled."Conrad, even though Yasmin isn't biologically related to you, she still cares more about you than your own sister does. Shouldn't you prioritize Yasmin?" Philip's heartfelt plea portrayed Yasmin as his actual daughter, despite the lack of a blood bond.Julia coldly observed as Philip manipulated the situation, encouraging Conrad to disregard her and embrace Yasmin.'My, oh my, how skilled my dear father is at this!' she mused sarcastically."Dad! How could you be so unfair!" Conrad's voice trembled with anger, defending Julia and feeling deep sorrow for her.He could imagine how hurtful it must be for his sister to hear her biological father utter such callous words!"Fine, fi
