Penulis: Perfect Timing
The voice belonged to the most senior member of the Emerson family, Matilda Bolton, who was also Finn's, Quinn's, and my grandmother.

I had heard from Winnie that Grandma was the one who spoiled Quinn the most in the family.

I crossed my arms and scrutinized her while she did the same to me.

"She has no class at all. I can't believe that you're kicking Quinn out because of her," Grandma said.

Quinn's confidence returned to her now that her new pillar of support had appeared. "Don't say that,

  • Handle With Care: Real Heiress Coming Through   Chapter 9

    I scratched my head, not knowing how to answer Quinn. I couldn't possibly tell her that the Emersons were only treating me well because they feared death.The guests began whispering among themselves."Are the Emersons going to disown Quinn?""If you take a good look at them, you can tell that Quinn doesn't look like any of the Emersons.""She got what she deserved. Quinn was always using her status as the heiress of the Emerson family to bully people in school. I'm glad that it's coming back to bite her now!""She's so shameless even though she's just a fake heiress. It's one thing for her to freeload in somebody else's home. I can't believe she was actually planning to frame the real daughter!"Quinn wasn't brave enough to face the guests' looks of disdain. She let out an anguished wail before she ran off. She waited for a long time, but no one chased after her to comfort her like before.Her heart was suddenly gripped by fear. She was terrified that the Emersons would kick he

    The color drained from Quinn's face. She tried to explain herself, but Dad shoved the surveillance footage in her face, looking utterly disappointed."Stop being so stubborn! We've already seen the evidence! We raised you for 18 years, Quinn, and we never once mistreated you. We even refrained from revealing Charlotte's identity to the public because we didn't want to hurt your feelings."You're just our adopted daughter. What message are you trying to send by targeting Charlotte over and over again?"Quinn never expected Dad to humiliate her in front of so many people. Her face was twisted in despair.Meanwhile, Mom slowly led me away from the swimming pool and began introducing me to the guests."This is my daughter, Charlotte Emerson. She and Quinn were accidentally switched at birth. We only brought Charlotte back home not too long ago."Charlotte's shy and introverted, but she's also very thoughtful. We hope that no one will bully her. Anyone who looks down on her will be ma

  • Handle With Care: Real Heiress Coming Through   Chapter 7

    No matter how reluctant Quinn was, she had no choice but to move into another villa that belonged to the Emerson family since even Grandma was no longer on her side.Meanwhile, Grandma joined Mom, Dad, and Finn in doting on me.At first, I wasn't used to Grandma's attention, especially since she had acted so arrogantly during our first meeting. She constantly showered me with presents and always referred to me as "my darling Charlotte".It was as if she were a completely different person compared to the one who had scolded me that day.…I didn't feel as depressed as I used to when I looked at the dizzying number of zeros in my bank account and my closets that were stuffed to the brim with clothes.Occasionally, I would update my social media in the middle of the night, so Quinn could see what I was up to."I don't need a lot of money. What I need is a lot of love."I attached a photo of my new sports car and the family heirloom bracelet that Grandma had given me with the messa

Charlotte will get upset," she said.Grandma held her hand, looking incredibly upset."You're too mature, Quinn. Why are you still considering her feelings when she convinced your parents to kick you out of the house?"Mom and Dad looked at me warily. When they noticed that I had lowered my head and looked like I was in low spirits, they hastily pulled Grandma aside."Don't complicate things, Mom!" they whispered. "You don't know this, but Charlotte has this unique thing about her.

    "My stomach hurts so much!""I'm feeling dizzy too… Why are you foaming at the mouth, Dad?""Don't just stand there! Call an ambulance!"Mom, Dad, and Finn spent the rest of the night in agony as the doctors flushed out their stomachs and hooked them up to IVs.In the end, they found out that although the mushrooms had been poisonous, their toxins were neutralized because we were also served a dish of mountain herbs that hadn't been cooked properly.As a result, I was completely fine while they suffered from food poisoning because of the herbs.…Mom, Dad, and Finn treated me even better after they were discharged from the hospital again.Of course, they didn't let the issue of the poisonous mushrooms slide. In the end, they discovered that Quinn was the one who was responsible."Why did you do such a thing, Quinn?" Mom asked.She looked utterly disappointed. She never could have imagined that the well-behaved daughter, whom she had raised for more than a decade, was capable

    The Maserati Quattroporte flipped right over the barricade and began tumbling down the hill.I inhaled sharply, wondering if Mom's and Dad's brains were reminiscent of the inside of a blender at that moment.I hastily ran over to their car to check if they were still alive.Fear was written all over their faces as they stared at me."Y-You're really an unlucky star!"Truth be told, I felt a little upset that they were calling me an unlucky star right to my face. However, I couldn't deny the fact that misfortune seemed to haunt me wherever I went ever since I was a child.When I was still living with Ray and Holly, I never succeeded in taking my own life even though I jumped into the river 11 times, drugged myself four times, hung myself three times, and jumped from the roof seven times.I wondered if God refused to let me die because my life was just too terrible.Meanwhile, misfortune would befall Ray and Holly whenever I thought about cutting my life short.It seemed that th
