Lahat ng Kabanata ng Reborn: Getting Back My Real Son: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

"My son is different. He's destined to be wealthy—one day he'll be a big boss."Cindy, we're sisters. Let me give you some advice—while you're still young, hurry up and have another baby. Otherwise, that little thug of yours will wreak havoc in your life. When he beats the two of you crippled, no one will even care."Judy's mocking voice scraped at my nerves, and my nails dug into my palm.If she hadn't beaten and scolded Axel every day… If she hadn't forced him to drop out of school in junior high to go work… How would he have ended up wandering the streets, refusing even to return home?The day Judy killed me was also the day I learned the truth about the baby swap.The shock of discovering that the child I'd raised for twenty-five years wasn't mine left my mind in chaos. I wanted to confront Judy, question the hospital director, and find Phillip for answers.But more than anything, I wanted to find Axel—my real son, whom Judy had abused for so many years.I never got the chan

My sister stumbled into view, disheveled and breathless.It had been a long time since I'd last seen her, and Judy no longer resembled the refined, glamorous person she'd once been. Exhaustion clung to her like dust, making her look at least ten years older.I'd heard the rumors: in order to raise Phillip into a future "big boss," Judy—who once refused to lift even a finger—quit her job and devoted herself entirely to serving him. No wonder Ronald and Phillip were decked out head to toe in designer brands, while she walked out in an oil-stained apron, traces of chopped vegetables still clinging to the fabric.And yet, despite all the hopes she'd pinned on her son, he was dreaming of replacing her with a prettier mother.When Judy saw Ronald holding that young woman's arm so intimately, she snapped. Instead of going after her cheating husband, she lunged at the young woman."I'll kill you, you shameless homewrecker!"Sensing trouble, Phillip darted aside and hid behind a row of cl

Nate gave Axel's shoulder a satisfied pat. "Talking big isn't enough. Starting tomorrow, I'm watching you. We're doubling your study load."I smacked Nate lightly on the back of the head."Don't put too much pressure on Axel."Even so, it wasn't that I doubted Axel's abilities. I had tutored him myself—I knew exactly where he stood. He was gifted and willing to work hard. Given time, I didn't know whether he would become a prodigy among his peers, but he certainly wouldn't turn out poorly.I just didn't want him pushed too far.That night, after finishing my skincare routine and preparing to rest, the doorbell suddenly went off like it had lost its mind.The moment I opened the door, a figure lunged forward and wrapped himself around my leg."Mom!"Phillip's eyes darted rapidly, his expression full of eager flattery—completely different from the arrogant boy I saw at the mall earlier.The abrupt shift made my brows knit together. I tried pulling him off me."What are you doin

If not for my sister's prophecy that Phillip would someday become a big boss, Ronald would have divorced her long ago.After taking first place several times, Phillip became something of a local star.A few television interviews later, he rediscovered the sense of superiority he'd enjoyed in his previous life.He would stroll past me with his report card in hand, using every opportunity to mock me for "abandoning" such a brilliant child—what a terrible mistake I'd made, according to him.Unfortunately for him, every time he came gloating, he always happened to run into Axel returning home from school.At that time, Axel was in middle school and knee-deep in his rebellious phase—his temper exactly like his father's. He excelled academically, but he also led a group at school and had a reputation that made teachers and students alike tread carefully around him.He usually kept a cold, brooding face, but it always melted away when he stepped into our home and saw me and Nate.And s

Soon after Axel started college, Nate and I moved to a new city and began a new chapter in our lives.To make our retirement years more comfortable, we agreed to buy a villa in the suburbs. After more than a decade of hard work, purchasing a villa barely caused us any pressure.In this new city, without Axel nearby, Nate and I finally stopped holding back and threw ourselves into our careers with complete freedom.Another five years passed.During those five years, I rose to the highest position in my field, reaching the peak of my career. Nate retired early, happily embracing his peaceful life with nothing more than a fishing rod in hand.More than once during that time, we considered laying out an easier path for Axel—opening doors, arranging connections, paving shortcuts.But to our surprise and delight, he was nothing like the Phillip from my previous life. Without relying on us at all, Axel and a group of exceptional classmates founded a studio while still in college. With s
