Chapter 11

In the hallway, a shirtless man was trying to escape but got knocked to the ground by Alex's furious kick.Alex, straddling the man and throwing punches, had bloodshot eyes. No one dared to pull him off.It was only after Lucas spoke that two people finally went over and forcibly dragged Alex away.By then, Lucy had also been pulled out of the room, her hair disheveled.She collapsed on the floor, her body covered in marks.Lucy looked up, saw Lucas, and suddenly lunged toward him like a madwoman."Lucas! It was you who helped me back to the room! Why did it turn into Jack Ferguson?”Jack Ferguson was a notorious playboy in our social circle.He was also the man Lucy had originally planned to set me up with.Lucas gave her a mocking smile, "Miss Sanders, don't worry. The hotel security footage will be available soon."Alex let out a harsh laugh, wiping the corner of his mouth with his thumb. His eyes filled with hatred as he looked at Lucy, “Lucy, you bitch. Haven't I been go

The lazy voice of Lucas rang out again as he held up his phone, “The hallway security footage just came in. Why don't we all take a look?"Lucy's face instantly drained of color.Soon, her syrupy voice came from the phone, “Lucas, I fell for you the moment I saw you."If I could be your woman, even just once would be enough for me."In the footage, Lucy was leaning against a door, her face flushed with desire.When the door opened, a hand wearing a gold watch reached out and pulled her inside.Everyone turned to look at Jack, whose face had been beaten to a pulp. Sure enough, that same gold watch was on his wrist.Those who understood the situation began to mock her, "Looks like Lucy's plan backfired. She meant to hook Lucas but ended up knocking on Jack's door instead.""Tsk, Lucy always seemed so sweet and innocent. Who knew she had such a wild side?""Remember what Alex just said about helping Lucy do all the dirty work? Talk about wolves in sheep's clothing. Disgusting!"

Lucy sobbed loudly in my mother's arms.My father's first instinct was to hit me, but seeing Lucas's threatening expression, he didn't dare.Alex finished his phone call and walked over, rubbing his temples. He had composed himself back into the image of a proper gentleman, but his words remained ice cold, "My father knows everything now. After what Lucy's done, she'll never be allowed into the Channing family."My father panicked—his investment company survived entirely on the Channing family's support."Alex, Lucy didn't mean it. Maybe nothing even happened. Don't—"Alex's mouth twitched into a smile. "However, there might be another solution."His gaze fell on me, "Perhaps returning to the beginning wouldn't be so bad?"Lucas's face darkened instantly.My mother finally caught on and shouted, "No, Alex! You can't abandon my Lucy!"My father caught his breath sharply, involuntarily glancing at Lucas.My mother looked at Lucy in her arms and desperately told Alex, "Alex, Nin

Lucy was unable to hide the hatred in her eyes anymore, "Nina, want to know why Mom never liked you no matter what you did?"Because you're not even her child!"Your favourite grandmother knew everything but went to her grave without telling you this secret!"You're just unwanted trash that nobody loves!"She screamed the last sentence almost hysterically.My mind felt like a million bombs exploding at once, the deafening roar bringing fragments of the past rushing back.I vaguely registered my father grabbing Lucy's hair, slapping and hitting her.Her mother—not mine—fought like a madwoman to save her daughter.I'd had my suspicions before, but Lucy and I both resembled her mother.Our blood types matched too.I'd even seen photos at my grandmother's house of Mom holding me as a baby, smiling with such tenderness and contentment.So I always thought she didn't love me because I wasn't good enough.Lucas held my face, calling my name, forcing me to look at him.I blinked a

Chapter 16

At the engagement party, I met Alex and his father, Richard Channing.Richard's features somewhat resembled Lucas's, but his gloomy demeanor couldn't have been more different from his brother's.Alex followed cautiously behind his father.Richard casually clinked glasses with me and said, “Since you're part of the Channing family now, come by the company. I'll have someone arrange a position for you."His condescending tone made my skin crawl.My father nudged my arm, urging me to accept and say something nice.Lucas fearlessly met his brother's eyes. “Richard, my fiancee's employment isn't your concern."Besides, I hear you've had quite a few problems lately. Perhaps you should focus on your own affairs first?"He glanced at my father and added with a smirk, “Oh, and look after my father-in-law too, since he's one of your people."Lucas had told me that Richard must have plenty of shady business requiring my father's help.That's why he'd do favors for the Sanders family on

When his son emerged, his face was a mess of bruises and swelling.Despite Richard's aggressive efforts to suppress the trending topic, Mrs. Channing worked behind the scenes to ensure the story stayed alive.After discovering I had been impersonated all these years, Mrs. Channing had completely written off her eldest son.While abroad, Lucas had established a small publishing house. With his mother's financial backing, what had originally been a five-year plan accelerated dramatically.Two years later, our books dominated the bestseller lists across all major platforms, becoming the literary sensation of the year.Around the same time, someone anonymously reported Richard for money laundering with ironclad evidence.
