Disgraced Son Returns to Crush Them All

A slap cracked across my face.

The blow split my lip. I staggered and fell.

I knocked over the vase behind me. It shattered. I landed on the shards and cut my palms.

"Kneel!" my father, Paul Bishop, roared. I knelt in front of him and my mother, Jenna Cole.

"Noah, you're the older brother. An older brother is supposed to give in to his younger brother!" Paul shouted.

"Victor always thinks of you whenever he has something good. What's the harm in giving in to him this once?" Jenna asked.

"There's only one spot to study abroad. You have to give it to Victor!"

I looked at my biased parents. Their favoritism was laughable.

Ever since we were children, they had always been partial toward my younger brother, Victor Bishop. He was smooth and said the right things. I was just the quiet, honest one.

They bought him expensive watches when I hadn't gotten new clothes in three years.

When my shoes were falling apart, I glued the soles back on and kept walking.

In summer, they slathered Victor in sunscreen and drove him everywhere so he would not get sunburned.

They sent me to the countryside instead, leaving me completely at the mercy of the elements every day.

He ate steak in fancy restaurants, while I ate leftover scraps.

He slept in hotel suites, while I slept in a filthy barn that leaked when it rained.

A sneeze from Victor, and they ran him to the hospital.

I got sick in the barn and shook all night. No one bought medicine, and I almost died.

They left me there for ten years. They only remembered I existed on my 18th birthday.

I never gave up on studying, even in the countryside.

My teacher said there was one exchange student spot abroad. Whoever placed first in the mock exam would get it.

I came in first, as expected. I won the spot.

But my parents said I had been in the countryside, so I couldn't have had the chance to study.

They said I must've cheated on the exam.

So they told me to give the opportunity to Victor.

In my last life, Victor took my exchange student spot, and I was sent to intern at the family company instead.

I climbed from an ordinary intern all the way to CEO. I built Bishop Group into the top company in Caldera.

But after Victor came back, my parents kicked me out of the company.

I worked so hard, only for Victor to take the credit.

In the end, I went to prison and died.

After I was abducted, I called my parents in tears. I begged them to save me, but they coldly refused.

"You're a disgrace to the Bishop family. You might as well die," they said.

I would still shake with rage every time I remembered how cruel they were.

Now that I was reborn, I would make all of them pay!
