As I stepped out of my older brother's newly opened supermarket, the alarm suddenly rang. The sales assistant grimly reached out and grabbed me, "Miss, you haven't paid yet." I remembered that my buttons were made of metal, which triggered the alarm. After patiently explaining and easing the atmosphere, I said, "The owner of this supermarket is my older brother. He'll pay the bill." The sales assistant scoffed. "Your brother's the boss? Why not say he's your husband instead? You stole and refused to admit it. Pay up or I'll call the police immediately," she said and crumpled the receipt into a ball before throwing it at my face. I endured the humiliation and unfolded it. A baby pacifier for 100,000 dollars. Two packs of baby wet wipes for 200,000 dollars. Security personnel's hush fee, 300,000 dollars. All of the miscellaneous expenses added up to exactly one million dollars. I laughed in anger. "One million dollars? Why don't you just rob a bank? Go and get Chad Surrey. I want to see how I ended up with such a heartless brother." She rolled her eyes. "Don't pretend if you can't afford it, thief. Is Mr. Surrey someone you can see whenever you want?" When my parents came to help me, I said, "Only one of us exists in this family. It's either me or her."

Chad was momentarily at a loss for words. When he started to speak again I hung up.I blocked and deleted his contact. After throwing the photos I took with Chad into the trash can, my world was much quieter.The company's business was booming. On the day I took a private car back to the family house for a party, two people rushed to the front of the car. As the car braked sharply, I hit the airbag due to inertia and almost had a car accident.I sighed in relief, but what followed was fear. After rolling down the car window, I cursed, "Who the hell? Didn't you see the car coming? Are you blind?""Charlene, it’s me." Kelly was a bit embarrassed by the scolding, but she still had to come up and please me. She knelt on the ground, her hands pressing against the car window. "I'm your sister-in-law. I was wrong for what happened at the supermarket before, but I didn't mean it. Look, you've scolded and beaten Chad. You must have calmed down by now. He has lost so much weight recently. He
"Chad, was it fun staging this drama?""Huh?" Chad seemed not to understand what I was saying and asked again, "What are you saying, Charlene?"I snapped my fingers and the bodyguards dragged two people in from outside.After getting a clear look at their faces, Chad's expression changed instantly. He was about to speak when the two of them crawled over to my side, each holding a pant leg, with tears streaming down their faces. "Help! Help, Ms. Surrey! We didn't mean it. Chad threatened us to do it back then. He said he would give us money if we pretended to bully you, but we never expected him to go back on his word. Not only did he not pay us, but he also tried to send us to prison."Chad got agitated and kicked them away. He held my shoulders and looked me in the eye. "What nonsense are you talking about? What threat? I have no idea what they are talking about! Charlene, you mustn't trust them. Have you forgotten? I'm still the chairman of the company. Our competition must have
Kelly deliberately referred to the child as the heir of the Surrey family, hoping that my parents would also side with her.The sowing discord trick did not work on me, but Chad was greatly affected. He felt even more sorry for the person in his arms, and his gaze towards me grew colder and colder. "Charlene, hurry and apologize to Kelly. Otherwise, I'm no longer your brother!""Sure."I walked up with a folder in hand. Chad thought I had agreed to apologize. He helped Kelly sit on the couch, crossed his legs, and waited for me to kneel.The next second, a diagnosis sheet was thrown onto his face.The sharp edge cut his cheek. As Chad looked down, I said, "Chad, you weren't my brother to begin with. You won't be anymore either. As for Kelly, she isn't pregnant at all. She had her period and tried to pretend to have a miscarriage and frame me. I really don't know whether to call you smart or stupid."Once he saw the words "Not pregnant" on the sheet, Chad paused.Kelly angrily ca
"Charlene. Charlene, don't go. I'm sorry..." She walked over to grab my wrist.I quickly withdrew my hand. She closed her eyes and plopped down on the ground. With her legs spread out, she burst into tears. "Charlene, why... Why push me? You know I'm pregnant. Why harm me? I’m carrying the Surrey family’s child. Chad, Chad, save me."A pool of blood spread under her bottom, leaving me dumbfounded.I did not even touch the corner of her clothes. How could I have become the perpetrator who pushed her?Chad's eyes were red with anger. He held her and screamed at me angrily, "Charlene, that's enough. Kelly has already apologized. What else do you want? Do you want her to die? Why are you being so petty? Hurry over to apologize to Kelly."His eyes were as cold as ice. It was as if I were not his sister but his enemy.All of the bodyguards surrounded my parents and me.Dad let go of my hand and chided me, "Charlene, how could you do this to Kelly? Have you forgotten everything I taugh
Chad cautiously reached out to bandage my wound, but I turned sideways to avoid him. My eyes fell on the lipstick mark on the collar of his white shirt. I said flatly, "I don't even know when I had a brother.""Yeah, Chad. Didn't you say you don't have a sister?" Kelly seemed to have grasped a lifeline, gripping his arm and clutching her stomach without even looking straight at me.She pouted and said coquettishly, "I'm so scared. This woman popped up out of nowhere. Not only did she steal stuff, but she also scolded me. I think she's just a gold digger who wants to marry into the Surrey family, so she lied about being your sister to get close to you!"Kelly thought she had found something on me. After hearing Chad greet our parents, she obediently walked up to them and bent over submissively. "Mr. and Mrs. Surrey, I'm Chad's girlfriend. I'm pregnant. You two are going to have grandchildren. I planned to visit you earlier, but this bitch stopped me. This... This brat pissed me off
