Chapter 1 Divorce

"Let's get divorced." In the three years Daniel Winston and Rebecca Brown were married, that was the second time he spoke to her. The first time he spoke to her was on their wedding night. At that time, she was holding up her poofy wedding dress as she twirled. She beamed at him while asking if she looked pretty. Yet, he replied, "Now that the wedding is over, I'll have someone take you abroad." So, she was sent away to a foreign country. For three years, she had to be on her own. She never expected to hear him ask for a divorce as soon as she returned to the country. And on their wedding anniversary, no less. "Must we get divorced?" Rebecca didn't look up. Her long hair covered her face, concealing her emotions. But she could hear her voice tremble. "Is there no room for discussion at all?" she asked with a catch in her throat. Daniel stared at her with disdain for a long time. Then, he said coldly, "You know, I never would have married you if my grandfather wasn't

Chapter 2 Birthday

Rebecca fell silent for a long while.Then, she said in a relaxed tone, "Well, I escaped unharmed. I was even lucky enough to find you guys. No matter what, they brought me up. So, let's just leave it at that."She let them off the hook. It was a repayment for their kindness in raising her all those years."Becca—" Sam seemed to have more to say. But there was a sudden knock on her door. Rebecca ignored the person outside the door. "Sam, I know what you're going to say," she said. "But I don't want to create new problems now. I just want nothing to do with them in the future."Ignoring the fact that she wasn't abducted, they could easily deny her proof even if she were to show any. Without solid evidence, it would do more harm than good if they turned on her instead. Besides, if the Browns found out Rebecca's biological parents were the Johnsons, they might want benefits. They would keep using the fact that they had raised her for 20 years to ask for them. That was how the Brow

Chapter 3 Girlfriend Always Sits in the Front

Rebecca deliberately took her sweet time. She only left the villa after Daniel called her again. Daniel frowned slightly when he saw her jogging over to the car. Then, he turned to straighten the gift box in the front seat. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I took a nap earlier," Rebecca explained as she sat in the back seat.Daniel glanced at her through the rearview mirror. His hands tightened around the steering wheel. "Are you going to the party dressed like that?" "Huh?" Rebbeca said before looking down at her outfit. "Is this not okay? It's just a party among the family. This should be fine." Daniel tossed the gift box in the front seat to her. "Go get changed." The white box had the label "Sprince" printed on it and was packaged meticulously. Rebecca recognized at a glance that it was a gown from Sprince's latest spring-summer collection.She hesitated. Then, she put the box back. "It's not right for me to change into the gift you're giving to Jessica."Daniel was

Chapter 4 Adopted Daughter

Daniel suddenly stepped on the gas. His voice was like the raging wind outside the car as he said, "Are you in a rush to get the divorce finalized?"What did he mean by that? She didn't need to start a new relationship right away. And nobody was sitting around waiting for her anyway. She shook her head and said in a serious tone, "You're the one who's in a rush."Daniel smirked. Then, he slowed the car down and said, "I'm not."Rebecca was speechless, so she simply said nothing.She already signed the divorce papers anyway. After she cut ties with the Browns tonight, she would no longer have anything to do with them. Half an hour later, they reached the Brown residence.The Browns had gained an elevated status in high society since they were longtime business partners with the Winstons. Plenty of people tried to get close to them. That was why almost all the empty spots outside the villa were lined with luxury cars at that moment. When Rebecca got out of the car, the cold ni

Chapter 5 The Dress That Didn't Fit

Right when Rebecca wanted to push Jessica away, Jessica's expression suddenly changed. She frowned and let go of Rebecca. Jessica looked at Rebecca's waist and said, "Rebecca, this dress doesn't seem to fit you. Why do I feel it's too big for you?"Every event the ladies in high society attended was like a competition. Their dresses and jewelry were meant to flaunt their family's wealth. They would discuss which designer they were wearing, which tailor-made dresses were limited editions, and who designed their jewelry. If someone wore something out of fashion, they would single out that person. It would be worse if a person accidentally wore a knockoff. Clearly, a dress that didn't fit was embarrassing too. The people around Rebecca started to poke fun at her."How is she Mrs. Winston? She doesn't even have a dress that fits her. How pitiful." "Be a little understanding. She just came back after being forced to live abroad. It's good enough that she has a decent dress to we

Chapter 6 Getting Freaky

The villa's garden was abuzz as the party was in full swing. Many ladies in high society gathered together. They had found a common topic for discussion—Rebecca's dress that didn't fit well. As the birthday party gradually became livelier, some people couldn't wait any longer. They asked Jessica to make a wish and cut her cake. Jessica walked up to Daniel and said, "Dan, come and cut the cake with me." Daniel glanced at his watch, and his expression darkened. "I'm going to look for Rebecca. You may go ahead and cut the cake with Mrs. Brown."Jessica didn't expect Daniel to be the first person to think of Rebecca. A vicious expression appeared on her face for a brief moment.She initially planned to mention that woman after cutting her cake. But when she checked the time, the situation should be at its climax. It was the perfect time to bring people over to check it out. She smiled and said, "I almost forgot Rebecca is back. I'll go with you then. I wonder if she's upset with

Chapter 7 Playing Cards

"What did I do?" Rebecca asked as she sat on the couch in the room. She was wearing a jacket, but she looked decent. Two men were sitting across from her with playing cards in their hands. They were dressed a little unconventionally, but they were still fully clothed. It didn't look like they were doing the deed at all. What the crowd saw was different from what they expected. So, they were all stunned. But Rebecca smiled. She looked around the room calmly before her gaze finally landed on Jessica. "Do tell. What did I do wrong?" Rebecca asked. The way Rebecca stared at Jessica sent a chill down her spine. Since when did a bumpkin like Rebecca have such a terrifying gaze? In the past, she was so scared of being kicked out of the Brown family that she hardly talked. She was afraid that the more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make. She still looked so submissive a while ago. But now, she seemed to have changed into a completely different person! Also, why did th

Chapter 8 Apology

Jessica was about to act like she was wronged. But Rebecca cut her off, saying, "Don't be so quick to explain. I have evidence."At her signal, the thugs who were playing cards with her earlier put their phones on the coffee table. They played the video and audio recordings on them. The video showed Rebecca turning on the lights after entering the door. Right after that, the door was shut from the outside. She tried to turn the doorknob, but the door wouldn't open no matter what. It was only 30 seconds long, but it was enough to prove someone had set Rebecca up. They had locked her in the room. It was unlike what Jessica said. She didn't stay upstairs on purpose.Jessica immediately denied it. "Rebecca, I don't know why someone locked you in the room. I didn't come upstairs with you, either. Also, there's a good mix of people here today. Look, even thugs could enter …" She put the blame on Rebecca again. Someone indeed locked Rebecca up. But maybe it was because she offen

Chapter 9 Thank You

Karen probably didn't expect Rebecca to be so assertive. For a while, she was stunned. Then, she started crying even louder. "Why do you keep upsetting your sister? You wouldn't even be alive today if it weren't for us! You're all fine, but your sister's having an episode! And you still won't compromise! How can you be so cruel?"Rebecca looked at her in disappointment.She used to have a flicker of hope. After all, she had called Karen "Mom" for so many years. She wondered if the Browns would care about her after all the years they lived together. Even just a tiny bit of affection would have been enough for Rebecca. But it looked like it was just wishful thinking on her part.She cleared the catch in her throat in silence. But she still had to ask, "What if something happened to me today? What if I was really assaulted?"Karen was shocked. Then, she snapped back at Rebecca, "But you're fine now, aren't you? Nothing happened. Why can't you just let it go? You're her big sis

Chapter 10 Disownment Agreement

Rebecca stopped in her tracks when she heard Karen calling out to her. Karen got up from the floor with a cold expression. Then, she waved to have someone bring a document to her. "Since you've decided to leave our family, sign this disownment agreement." Having the disownment in writing was better than a verbal agreement alone. Rebecca was already an adult. Still, nobody could tell if she would go back on her word. Maybe she would refuse to give up being a member of a wealthy family. Karen didn't want her adopted daughter to take advantage of the Brown family! Without hesitation, Rebecca signed the disownment agreement. There were two copies, so she kept one. Once again, she thanked Karen. "Thank you for raising me, Mrs. Brown. Goodbye." She wanted to leave as soon as she said that. She ignored everybody, including her supposed ex-husband. "Rebecca!" When he saw her about to leave, Daniel went up to her and grabbed her wrist. She shook his hand off, and a look of disgu
