LOGINWithin the high society circle, I'm a notorious high-maintenance trophy wife. I won't eat apples unless they are peeled and sliced into small pieces. I won't drink water unless it's exactly 113.2°F. By my second year married into an elite family, my in-laws can no longer stand me. They sign me up for an online makeover reality show, hoping to fix my attitude. The Internet goes crazy. Everyone tunes in, eager to watch me, a spoiled brat, lose my mind in the countryside. Instead, the moment the live stream starts, they see me carrying ten bundles of wheat across my shoulders. They see me wearing a pair of canvas shoes, running more steadily than the local farm women. When the village chief gives me a hundred dollars, my eyes light up with joy. "Wait, I get paid a hundred bucks a day, and meals are included?" People explode with rage. "Who does this fake think she's fooling? She spends a million dollars a day back in the city, and now she's pretending to be frugal on the show?" "If she were really like this, why would the Greenwood family send her here in the first place?" I have nothing to say. These people have no idea. Life in a wealthy family may look glamorous from the outside. But they only give me a hundred dollars a month. The only reason I haven't starved to death is because I've been secretly taking construction jobs in a mask, hauling bricks and mixing cement just to earn enough for a couple of meals. That night, a clip of me wearing a straw hat and grinning foolishly over my hundred dollars goes viral. Jeffrey Greenwood, who is attending a business conference overseas, calls me. "That's enough. Ten minutes ago, I paid off your seven-million-dollar Hermès bill. The Greenwood family gives you ten million dollars a month, and anything beyond that gets fully reimbursed. Why are you making our family look bad?" I freeze in the middle of chewing a mouthful of wild greens. Ten million dollars a month? Seven-million-dollar Hermès bill? What the hell? Who's living my life as the spoiled, billionaire's wife?

But it wasn't long before he called me back, saying, "Elizabeth, something's happened. We can't reach Selene."Wendy and I rushed to Selene's office. It was already completely deserted. There was a letter left on her desk. In Selene's handwriting was written, "Thank you, Ms. Collins, for helping me climb the social ladder. Goodbye, you idiot." A smiley face was drawn at the end.I slammed the letter down on the desk. Then, I turned and rushed to the airport."She must be trying to flee overseas with the money. Find out which flight she's on. If she gets out of the country, we'll never catch her!"Greenwood Group immediately mobilized its people. Soon, someone managed to track down Selene's flight number.Jeffrey and I rushed to the airport. But the plane had already taken off half an hour ago. By now, it had prob
Wendy covered her face, staring at me in fear.Selene and Jeffrey hurried over behind me.Selene grabbed Wendy and hauled her to her feet. "So, it was you impersonating Mrs. Greenwood and tricking me into sending money to you!""W-What impersonation? I was just here to look at the plane!"Selene sneered. "Exactly. We invited you to inspect the plane on the company's instructions. The whole point was to catch you red-handed, you thief!""What company? My husband, James Freeman, said he was buying me a plane, so I came here to look at it!" Wendy was practically frantic.Selene let out a cold laugh and pulled out her phone, dialing the police."Stop pretending, Ms. Williams. We have evidence. You're going to prison!""What?" Wendy's face went pale.I reached out and stopped Selene. "Wait. It wasn't her."Selene frowned. "Mrs. Greenwood, this isn't the time to let your emotions cloud your judgment.""Trust me. I believe she wouldn't do something like that," I replied."That's j
A wave of question marks flooded the live stream comments."What the hell is going on?""Selene's records show that every cent was transferred. How could Elizabeth's account only have a hundred dollars in it?""One of them has to be lying.""I think it's Elizabeth.""Me too. How could a spoiled trophy wife possibly survive on a hundred dollars a month?""But… isn't it possible that Selene is lying too?""Yeah, think about it. The calluses on Elizabeth's shoulder and how she had shoved a dirty dinner roll straight into her mouth… That didn't look fake.""True… Selene was responsible for transferring such huge amounts of money. Who's to say she didn't get greedy…"Jeffrey frowned and turned to Selene. "Selene, do you have anything to explain?"Selene looked at my bank transaction records and furrowed her brows. "Mr. Greenwood, I honestly don't know how this happened.""What do you mean?"She took out her phone and opened her chat history with me. There, in the conversation, w
It wasn't long before Jeffrey's secretary, Selene Reed, arrived in a pair of Saint Laurent heels. The solid gold tassel earrings dangling from her ears were jarring.When she saw me, she paused briefly before giving me a courteous nod. "Mrs. Greenwood."I was livid. She had taken so much money using my name. How could she possibly remain so calm standing right in front of me?Jeffrey gently placed his warm hand over mine and gave me a reassuring look. Then, he turned to Selene."Are you saying that Elizabeth was the one constantly threatening you to get money from me?""Yes." Selene nodded. Her voice was steady. She didn't seem embarrassed or nervous in the slightest.I slammed my medical report down in front of her. "If I really was the one demanding all that money, how could I have been so malnourished that I ended up with all these health problems and needed medical treatment?"Selene glanced at my report briefly before casually placing it back on the table. "I have no idea h
