CHAPTER 1

No one would have thought that the King family, the most powerful clan in Preagend, would be fooled like this.In a large and lavish bedroom, a tall, well-dressed man seized the woman in the magnificent bridal gown by the neck in an outburst of rage.“You're not Avery! How dare you and your family trick me into marrying you? You must be tired of living already,” he growled. The woman was forced to tilt her head back, but her slender and attractive neck failed to elicit any sympathy from the man. “Let... let go...”Half of her features were obscured by a white mask, revealing only her strikingly beautiful eyes, which were starting to water now.“Let... let go...”Her cheeks flushed, and she sputtered in distress.The man tossed Luna Miller to the floor with a vicious swing of his arm and stared down at her condescendingly.Luna felt a brief flutter of anxiety when she realized her mask had come loose on one side. She immediately moved to adjust it. The man then slammed the door open an

CHAPTER 2

The King family was set on tying the knot with some well-regarded family, and they had gone through several rounds of interviews and meetings with potential candidates before settling on Avery.On the day of the wedding, the King family sent only one car to pick up the bride from the Miller family’s home, and the ceremony itself was extremely simple. It was common knowledge that marrying into the King family would elevate the Millers’ social standing.However, no one thought that the Millers would have the guts to change the bride without the Kinges’ knowledge, successfully deceiving them.Preston, who had already met Avery before, did not realize he had married someone else until he got home from work and saw Luna's mask-clad face. The servant carefully climbed the stairs with a tray of food in her hands. Upon spotting her, Celeste called to stop her. “Hey, where are you taking that?”The servant answered shakily, “The bride asked me to bring her some food. She said she hasn’t eaten

“I'm sorry, but... who are you? Do you mind if | ask you to introduce yourself to me?” Luna requested. Anger flashed across Rhea’s face. “You...”“Enough, Luna!” With a murderous expression on his face, Preston cracked his knuckles menacingly before pointing at a photo. “Are you the ugly woman in this photo?”Ugly woman? Luna grimaced when she saw how red Preston's knuckles had gotten. He must be really furious at her right now. “Yes, honey, that’s me in the photo, but how did you know what | look like? Have you seen me before?”Suddenly, Preston threw the photo, and it landed on the floor by Luna’s feet. He was so angry that he felt like he was going to explode soon. Was the woman deliberately trying to piss him off? Everything she did and said infuriated him.Smiling, Luna said, “Honey, don’t be angry. I actually don’t look like this in real life. rm...”Before she could reveal anything important, though, she stopped talking.“Go on. Tell me what's different about you in the photo.

CHAPTER 4

She hurriedly ducked her head, put her mask on, and grabbed the servant’s hand.Luna quickly cut her off mid-sentence, saying, “It’s nothing. She just got scared when I took my mask off.”“No, I wasn’t scared. It’s...” The servant tried to continue explaining, but she paused when Luna anxiously squeezed her hand. The servant gave Luna a questioning look, wondering why she was preventing her from telling Preston the truth.Luna rubbed the servant's back in a comforting manner. “It’s okay. I’m sorry for scaring you. Don’t worry. I won’t take my mask off again when you're around.”The servant gaped at her. She could not fathom why Luna would say such a ridiculous lie. With furrowed brows, Preston regarded the unusual scene before him thoughtfully.“It's good that you have some self-awareness. You'd better hide that face of yours properly. Don’t you dare embarrass me by showing it to anyone.”Preston did not show it on his face, but he felt a shiver run down his spine. Luna’s face had sca

CHAPTER 5

A soft, melodious voice could be heard coming from inside.“Luna is a black-hearted woman, Preston. Be careful around her from now on. She has successfully tricked you into marrying her, so who knows what else she can do.”Luna’s skin crawled at the sound of the woman’s coy voice.She waited for a response from Preston but did not hear one. The woman, on the other hand, kept talking. “Preston, look. Do you think this purple bag will look good on me?”Abag? Luna raised a brow and pursed her lips. Did Rhea want Preston to buy her a bag?With a quiet hum, she set the glass of water down on the glass table next to her.She then knocked on the door and entered the room.Inside, Preston was seated at his desk, reading a document. Beside him was Rhea, who was holding a fashion magazine in her hands.When Rhea looked up and saw Luna, her demeanour immediately changed.“Who let you in, you ugly thing? Get out of here now.”Preston raised his head as well, his piercing eyes scrutinizing Luna.T

CHAPTER 6

“It's late. You should go home now.” Preston glanced at her before returning his attention to the document in his hands.Rhea’s face turned pale. The look Preston had sent her way was so cold and uncaring, She looked out the window before asking timidly, “Can you drive me home? It’s too dark outside, and I’m scared.”Preston did not even bother to look up as he replied, “I have some business matters to take care of. I'll ask Ethan to drive you home.”Dissatisfaction rose within Rhea, but she stifled the need to express it in Preston’s presence.Preston had been treating her nicely in an effort to make up for what happened five years ago, but it was obvious that he only saw her as his friend at best.However, Rhea was not the type to give up easily. Only she was worthy of being the mistress of the King household. “Okay. I'll take my leave now, then. Don’t stay up too late.”Finally, the peace in the study was restored. Preston, irritated by Luna’s behaviour and words, massaged the spa

She took a deep breath and rolled her eyes inwardly. She ran her fingers through her hair before opening the bottle of hand cream. As she rubbed the cream in her hands, she pretended that his words did not affect her.Preston was still watching her.“That nasty scar on your face won’t go away no matter how well you treat your hands, stupid woman.”Luna’s fury, which had been ebbing, returned.“So what if I like taking care of my hands? It makes me happy. What’s wrong with that?”“That’s merely a temporary fix. It doesn’t eliminate the issue entirely, which is your face.”“I like doing it.”Preston was taken aback by her response.Luna bit her lower lip. She absolutely could not let a man she barely knew hurt her in any way.After saying that, Luna went to the bed, pulled up the comforter, and lay down.Preston's hands clenched into fists. The woman was not only shameless and vicious, but she also had a sharp tongue.Luna was worried about getting hand cream on the bedding, so she did

CHAPTER 8

The hideous-looking woman probably had no idea that Celeste favored Rhea and that she had some kind of influence in the King family.When Luna walked into the living room, Rhea beamed and waved at her. “Miss Miller, you’re awake. Come and have a seat.” Miss Miller?Luna, who was on her way to the garden, stopped in her tracks, intrigued at the way the woman addressed her. She stared at Rhea, whose smile did not quite reach her eyes.“sure. I'd love to chat with you, Miss Evans,” Luna replied.Luna made her way toward the centre of the living room, but there were no available seats near Rhea. She had to walk in front of the other woman to get to the other sofa.Rhea made a go-ahead gesture with her hand and said, “Go on, Miss Miller. Walk in front of me. I'll make way for you.” Without suspecting anything, Luna replied, “Thank you.”She was walking past Rhea when something appeared before her feet, sending her stumbling and causing her knee to collide with the edge of the coffee table.

Celeste raised her head and shot a menacing look in Luna’s direction.“You intentionally stepped on her foot, didn’t you? Apologize to Rhea. Now!” Luna gave the two an indifferent look before turning in the direction of the door.Rhea was such a good actress. After her second attempt to hurt Luna was unsuccessful, she tried to make it look like everything was her fault. However, Luna was not going to let her do whatever she wanted, especially when her knee was still in pain right now because of the woman.“Apologize.”Luna stopped walking when she heard a cold and authoritative voice from behind her.She reluctantly turned around. Preston was staring at her as if he wanted to dissect her with his gaze. “Are you deaf? I told you to apologize to Rhea!”The large room echoed with his loud, angry voice.As a result, the nearby servants glanced at him warily.Luna narrowed her eyes and glared at Preston, silently berating him for falling for Rnea’s deception and yelling at her without gett

CHAPTER 10

Rhea ran over with a handkerchief to clean it up, but by the time she got there, Preston had already gotten to his feet and headed upstairs. He had to change his stained tie.In the bedroom, Luna waited for quite some time, but no one brought her food.With her stomach growling, she looked around for something to eat and came across a mere box of chrysanthemum tea. With a sigh, she accepted the fact that she would be hungry throughout the day.She ripped open a chrysanthemum tea bag and started the brewing process. She had learned the art of tea brewing and was quite skilled at it. Soon, a cup of chrysanthemum was sitting in front of her, its aromatic scent permeating the room.Luna grabbed it, closed her eyes, and chanted, “I’m not hungry. I’m not hungry. I’m not hungry. Oh, this tea smells good.” It was the scene that greeted Preston when he opened the door. He clenched his hands into fists. Was this woman for real?Preston walked further into the room. Luna had a porcelain cup in
