On the day of my twenty-first birthday, I posted online: [I want a lollipop.] My childhood rival, who was overseas, dropped everything there and flew back. He showered and showed up at my doorstep. I vowed to savor lollipops more carefully from then on—they were simply too sweet. From that moment, even after I was exposed as a fake heiress, everyone in high society knew: Jonathan Chase wanted to marry me. When the Sterling family carried out their harsh punishment, the hundred lashes meant for me were almost entirely taken by him—ninety-nine of them, borne by his own body. When they locked me in the basement, with darkness closing in from all sides, his shouts each day became my only light. "Chloe, don't be afraid. I'll get you out," he promised. And he did. He really saved me. He also made me witness, with my own eyes, his magnificent wedding to the true heiress. The man who once couldn't bear to make me wait had, "for my sake", told me to wait three times. The first time was on his wedding day. Pain was etched into every line of his face. "Chloe, if I don't marry Eleanor, they'll never let you go. Wait for me for three years. Three years from now, I'll marry you." The second time was three years later. He looked at Eleanor's rounded belly, hesitation written all over his face. "Chloe… she's carrying my child. You'll have to wait a little longer." The third time was just yesterday. I was just a step away from his kid. He pushed me violently to the floor, his face tight with warning. "Chloe, can't you just wait? Why do you have to take it out on a kid?" Sunlight fell across the face that once loved me, now stripped of all its former warmth. "If that's how it is… then maybe it's time for me to leave too." I said inwardly.

It was my parents who reported Eleanor to the police. Most likely, she would be charged with fraud and with causing me bodily harm.Prison time was inevitable. She would also be required to repay, in full, everything she had spent during her years living with the Sterling family.There was a faint sense of vindication in my heart, but I no longer cared much about it. Those who do evil will eventually pay the price.I only wondered whether my parents, when they looked back on everything they had done to me over these years, felt even the slightest trace of remorse.Early the next morning, Grandpa and I headed to the airport.Unexpectedly, I still saw the three people I never wanted to see again."Chloe, you're my granddaughter," Grandpa said quietly. "And your father is still my son. I'm old now. I can only protect you for a few more years."You're my only grandchild. In the end, the Sterling family's estate will still be handed to you. Don't blame me."I nodded.I didn't blame

Jonathan waited an hour.Three hours.Five hours…I knew his endurance well. Back when he still loved me, he had once stood by my side and endured hardship with me.He stood there for three days and three nights.By the time Grandpa finally walked up to him, he had already fainted twice from exhaustion. The flowers in his hands had long since withered. His knees were so stiff he could barely move.Yet he still clenched his teeth and staggered forward, step by unsteady step."Grandpa…"It was as if he had seen hope. His face was full of pleading.But Grandpa's expression hardened. He avoided the hand Jonathan tried to reach out."Jonathan," Grandpa said coldly, "it's probably not appropriate for you to call me Grandpa anymore."Only then did Jonathan truly understand.The woman he had married—Eleanor—had already been proven not to belong to the Sterling family. That meant he no longer had any connection to the Sterling family at all.Still, Jonathan refused to give up.Fro

According to Eleanor's original plan, once they returned to the Sterling family's old estate, she would make her move against Grandpa.After that would come several days of mourning. By the time they returned home again, I would have already starved to death.She tried desperately to stop everyone from going back, but she couldn't override their determination.When the car finally pulled up in front of the Sterling residence again, the first person to leap out was Jonathan."Chloe… Chloe…"He strode into the living room—and in that instant, he saw bloodstains on the staircase, still there, never cleaned up.Panic surged through him. He shouted my name even louder."Chloe! Chloe! Where are you—"But all of them had overlooked something.When Grandpa sent the group message, he had already made it clear: I had been taken away by him.The three of them searched the villa in a frenzy. Only Eleanor stood frozen in the center of the living room, lost and stiff, her eyes drifting aga

Jonathan felt as if his entire world had collapsed.He wasn't the only one. The Sterling couple stood frozen in place, stunned into silence for a long moment.The Sterling family patriarch had personally led the investigation. There was no way the results could be false. After all, no one cared more about the purity of the Sterling bloodline than the old master himself. He would never fabricate a paternity test just to favor me.Slowly, everyone turned their gaze toward Eleanor.Anger. Shock. Collapse. And above all—resentment.Under those stares, Eleanor felt her skin crawl. She vaguely sensed what this meant. Still, she forced a calm smile, pretending to be confused."What's wrong with all of you? Why are you looking at me like that?"The first to break down was Mother."Eleanor… tell me the truth. Are you really our biological daughter?"As expected.A chill ran through Eleanor's heart. Her identity had been exposed after all. But she couldn't admit it. If she did, everyth
