A wealthy heiress from Belvoria’s elite circle asked me to be her dead boyfriend’s substitute. My compensation included a 50,000-dollar base salary, plus 8,000 dollars per shared meal and 10,000 dollars per accompanying shopping trip. My hypocritical older sister quickly stopped me from agreeing to this deal. “We come from a respectable family. How can you sell your dignity for such little money?” Yet she later became a rich man's mistress and successfully married into wealth. Meanwhile, I struggled to balance work and studies to pay for my tuition. This hurt my academic performance. After graduation, I could only find a job with a monthly salary of 3,000 dollars. I even developed a tumor from overworking. I eventually died in a cold and impersonal hospital, unable to afford treatment. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day the young heiress asked me to be her dead boyfriend’s substitute. This time, I agreed without hesitation. I was determined to take this role.

Victor’s childhood sweetheart from overseas had directly reported her to the police, which led to her arrest.When I arrived at the station, the scene inside was chaotic. Victor’s childhood sweetheart had returned to the country. She slapped him across the face and said, “Victor, is this how you show your love for me? By finding twenty substitutes in one year?“I just missed you so much, Amy.”Victor spoke in a thoroughly wretched state. “I swear, none of them mean anything! You’re still the only one I love!“Now that you’re back, I’ll get rid of all of them! I’ll do it right now!”“Spare me! I was only abroad, not dead!“If you missed me, you could’ve bought a plane ticket to see me.“You didn’t even visit once this year. Meanwhile, you’re having the time of your life back here!“We’re done, Victor. I’m breaking up with you!”Amy was

To them, my very existence was a mistake. Any time they got angry, I was the one who got hit and yelled at.Whenever I had a dispute with Eliana, they would always side with her without asking for the truth.In the past, I always believed they would change. I was their biological son. Surely, they would eventually put aside their prejudices and be good to me.I waited until my dying day in that life, and it never came. When I got sick, they just cut me off.They said good riddance to me when I died, claiming I deserved my illness. They said I had been a burden for decades and should have done them the favor of dying long ago.This time around, I took note of their fury and made my peace with it.They simply did not love me. There was no point trying to force it.After they scolded me for over ten minutes, my father finally spoke with indifference. “I heard you have over 100,000 dollars. Hand it over. Your family needs it. Then cut all ties with that young heiress.“Or else, I’m

The mere thought of her impending misfortune filled me with satisfaction.Ever since then, my relationship with Eliana had been completely severed. She proceeded to spread rumors about me on the campus forum.She claimed I had sold my dignity for money. She called me shameless for becoming someone’s boy toy. She said I was corrupting the campus’s moral atmosphere.I became infamous across the entire campus. Many people looked at me with contempt. Some would even shout after Bella, “Ms. White, do you still need a substitute? I’ll do it for 5,000 dollars!”The situation grew increasingly chaotic. Finally, my academic advisor reluctantly called me in. He advised me to cut ties with Bella.I directly countered him, saying, “As far as I know, I haven’t violated any school regulations.“In the end, this only ruins my reputation. It doesn’t really involve the campus.”My advisor said helplessly, “It does have some impact—”I interrupted him. “Sir, what’s your monthly salary?”“8,000
