Freak

My so-called best friend pretends to be me and steals my identity as the CEO. She spends money recklessly and announces she'll buy apartments in the city for our long-time employees. Everyone praises her as the perfect boss. Not only that, but she also steals my husband. Even my son calls her "Mommy". So, when I'm accused of having bipolar disorder and other mental health issues, no one speaks up for me. My young son has no idea that I am his birth mother. The company and assets my parents have left me have been taken by my best friend, too. In the end, my body ulcerates, and I pass away in a psychiatric hospital. When I open my eyes again, I realize I'm back on the day my best friend used my money to buy apartments for our employees. She stands in the center of the crowd, taking in all the praises. "You're beautiful and so is your heart, Ms. Moore! You care about us so much, always handing out bonuses. And now, you want to set up a fund to help us buy homes? I'd work for you until I die!" And so, I quietly change the password on the bank card that funds all this. This time, I'll make sure my dear friend and my beloved husband experience the "wonderful" life they truly deserve.

Chapter 1
"I'm willing to work myself to death for a boss like Ms. Moore. I mean, who else will be this lucky to meet someone like her in their lifetime?""I seriously cannot believe that she's paying out of her own pocket to set up a fund and buy us homes.""Come up to the stage, Ms. Moore! Everyone's waiting for your speech!"…My head spun, noise buzzing around my ears. When I opened my eyes, I saw Hazel White—my best friend—surrounded by employees, being ushered onto the stage.What was going on?I stared down at myself in disbelief. My body wasn't covered in sores, and my legs weren't broken. I was still frozen when an employee walked past and shoved me aside."Hey, isn't this Ms. Moore's nanny?" she shouted. "What are you doing here? This isn't a place for you. Get out of here!"The sharp pain in my shoulder made everything clear—I had been reborn.In the crowd, Hazel glanced back at me, her tone somewhat impatient. "Why are you here? Trying to cause more trouble? Gosh, you're use

Chapter 2
It was pouring heavily in Jovania on the day I finished my postpartum treatment. Hazel had showed up at my door, soaked from head to toe. She was kneeling on the ground, begging me to take her in.She said her parents were going to sell her to a fool from their village for a bride price of 200 thousand dollars. She said only I could save her, and that she did not care even if she had to work as a nanny in my home.Hazel had been my best friend. How could I watch her sacrifice herself to a miserable life?So, I let her stay. I even paid her parents two million dollars to settle the matter. Since she had studied medicine, I asked her to help me recover and regain my health.My husband, Richard Hudson, traveled a lot for work. So, having Hazel around truly lifted my spirits. I never actually made her work as a nanny. Instead, I gave her a bank card and told her she could spend it however she liked.Gradually, things started to feel off.The household staff stopped listening to my or

Now, I sat in the CEO's office, my phone buzzing nonstop. All the messages came from Hazel."Are you crazy, Maxine? Why did you change the password? The employees are all watching!"Are you trying to embarrass me? Hurry up and send me the new password!"You ungrateful bitch. Don't forget who's been nursing you all this time!"…I looked at the dozens of messages and almost laughed. Ungrateful? Nursing me? She had been trying to poison me, not help me.Hazel wanted to set up a fund to buy homes for the key employees. I didn't mind rewarding the real backbone of the company, but when I looked at the list, I couldn't help but laugh.Key employees? There were more like the usual few sycophants who hovered around Hazel all the time. None of the people who had helped Mom and Dad build this empire were on the list."Clear the way!"Out of the blue, Hazel had fainted and was being carried into the office. The person holding her was none other than Richard, who shouted, "Get over here

It seemed the employee wanted to show off in front of Hazel. She glanced at her, then stepped forward to grab me."Ms. Moore's just doing this to spare you the embarrassment. She didn't call you a nanny and even treats you like a best friend. Now, get off the chair and help her out!" she barked.A crisp smack echoed in the air. I slapped her across the face with the back of my hand."How dare you hit me!""Oh, I'll do more than hit you. I'm firing you," I said.Seeing that I was serious, Richard hurried over. He said with a fake, comforting tone, "Linda is a senior employee. How can you fire her over something so trivial? Why don't you go home and cool off?"So, an employee insulting the CEO was considered trivial."Max, please, don't make it any harder for me, alright?" Hazel pleaded, tugging at my arm.She then turned to the employee. "Linda, I know you're worried about me, but you can't talk to Max like that. She's sick and can't handle this kind of provocation. Don't do it

That evening, Hazel came to me, looking as pitiful as she had the day she first showed up at my doorstep. "Max, are you mad at me? The shareholders have been pushing to sell their shares lately. You know, we sell health products, and your health hasn't been great."That's the only reason we didn't admit your identity. We were worried it might hurt the company's reputation. Just… stay at home and rest from now on. I'll take care of company affairs."What a load of nonsense. So, the owner of a pharmaceutical company wasn't allowed to get sick, then?I knew they were giving me harmful drugs, but I hadn't gathered the evidence, so I couldn't blow my cover just yet."I see… I guess I was being a little petty," I said, forcing a fake smile."Glad you understand. I'll have Richard bring your medicine over in a bit."A few minutes later, Richard came in with the medicine. He looked devoted, wrapping his arms around me as if nothing had ever happened. "Honey, don't waste your energy on me

The leading doctor rushed in and immediately pulled me behind him. He was the Moores' former family doctor and Dad's closest friend, Anthony Lane.Hazel clearly hadn't expected uninvited guests. She hurriedly explained, "Max is very sick and requires immediate hospitalization. Don't delay her treatment!"Richard chimed in, puffing himself up. "Exactly. Who sent you guys here? If you delay my wife's treatment, I'll sue you all for trespassing!"Anthony shot them a cold look. "We're from Harmony Hospital. I'm Dr. Lane, and I'll determine whether she's actually sick or not."The results came quickly. I was indeed sick, but not mentally. My body showed excessive levels of heavy metals, evidence of chronic poisoning."That's impossible!" Hazel shouted, eyes widened. However, she quickly put on her facade. "Max was perfectly fine. How could she be suffering from chronic poisoning? I don't believe it. We need our doctor to check."She turned to me. "Max, tell them. Do you trust him or u

Chapter 7
Hazel and Richard had ended up at the police station, but they were careful enough that they got out pretty quickly. As expected, I required solid evidence to charge them.After stopping the medication they gave me for the past few days, I was feeling a lot stronger.When I arrived at the company, Hazel came out to meet me. "Max, I knew I'd run into you here. That thing the other day was just a huge misunderstanding. There's no way Richard and I would hurt you."I glanced around and noticed Linda was still at the company, not fired. She crossed her arms and looked annoyed. "Ms. Moore, your patience is incredible. Just to humor her little fantasy about being the boss, you even took the blame and delayed the foundation launch."Gosh, I can't imagine the gossip that's going to stir."I had to hand it to Hazel. She genuinely had a talent for spinning a story. I shook off her hand. "Looks like it's time for some serious changes in the company."Hazel blocked me at the office door. "Ar

After finishing up company matters, I lay on my bed, scrolling through my phone. It looked like Richard had transferred a lot of my money for his personal use. Even after I fired him, he still had enough to buy Hazel a million-dollar handbag to keep her happy.Her photos on social media showed her grinning from ear to ear. It didn't matter, though. Once I gathered all the evidence, none of them would get away.I sent the drugs they had made me take for testing. Sure enough, something was wrong with them. If only I could record a video of them admitting it themselves…Suddenly, Richard was at the door, hammering the doorbell. He was sobbing and begging me to forgive him. "Max, listen! I didn't know what Hazel was doing! Please, just hear me out! Miles is too young to live without his daddy! I swear I love you, Max!"I opened the door and let him in. He immediately dropped to his knees, crying as he grabbed my leg. "Honey, I only went on a few business trips with her. You have to bel

Hazel and Richard exchanged a terrified glance."What nonsense are you talking about?" he roared, his usually gentle face twisting in anger. Then, with a smooth tone, he tried to coax me. "Honey, are you having another episode?"Hazel hurriedly chimed in, "It has to be! Everyone, let's end here today. She needs immediate rest!"I sneered at them, raising an eyebrow toward the big screen behind me. "Oh, no. The show's just getting started."They both turned, and on the screen behind them, footage from my bedroom last night played. The way Hazel threatened me and screwed Richard on my bed…Reporters in the crowd snapped photos instantly. Hazel jumped up, trying to block the screen as she screamed hysterically, "Stop! Stop filming! Security! Turn it off!"Richard, terrified, collapsed to the floor, staring at me in stunned confusion. "You… How…""I've taken Miles to safety for a while now. You never found him, did you, honey?"With that, I stepped down from the stage, satisfied, a

I had thought no one would believe something so ridiculous, but I was wrong.Since Richard lost his job, he had been streaming every day, always choosing late-night slots when the audience reach was the highest. Holding a bottle of alcohol, tipsy and teary-eyed, he would pour his heart out, begging me to listen to his explanations."My wife and I have been together for over a decade. She's not that kind of person. I just need to give her time to calm down… She has a mental condition. I thought she really wanted to transfer her shares, that's why I agreed to the press conference."Turns out, this
