บททั้งหมดของ Swapped in for My Brother and Married the Real Deal: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

I held my fresh-out-of-the-oven marriage certificate, feeling a little dazed.Before that day, I'd only met Savannah Reed once, when she came to visit our family. My brother, Morgan Slater, had never allowed me to talk to any of the rich women he had his eye on, so she didn't know me at all.But now, we were legally married, and we were even going to live under the same roof."I'm going to take a shower. If you're hungry, there's food in the fridge." Her voice, a little awkward and stiff, pulled me back to reality.I opened the tiny fridge. Inside was just one small vegetarian takeout box.On the live stream, I saw comments float up on the screen.[The poor female lead. Not only did she get kicked out, but she also owes the Reed family over two million dollars for raising her. She can only eat the cheapest boxed meals around now.][She's not used to this kind of food, though. She's taken, what, two bites in two days?]By the time Savannah finished her shower and came out, there

The pilled gray four-piece bedsheet set had been swapped for a warm yellow set, and a plate of still-steaming pork chops with greens sat on the kitchen counter.The old, dim bulb had been replaced with a new one, its warm light filling the 300-square-foot basement.In this freshly made-over "home", I was standing on a stool, changing the curtains. When I heard the door, I turned my head and gave Savannah a small smile."You're back. Dig in while the food's hot. The boss at the market gave it to me for free. These things didn't cost much, either. They're all bargain finds."Savannah's eyes turned slightly red as she scanned the room over and over, taking in every object. The large blocks of yellow filled her eyes, and the strong visual impact made her chest rise and fall. Her eyes grew even redder.I seized the moment and continued, "Sorry. I went ahead and decided on warm yellow without asking you first. I just figured it was something you would like. I changed your pillowcase, to

Savannah ate the peanuts I shelled for her. She wasn't really in the mood, but she still forced herself to chat with me. "Why did you pick hot dogs?""Right after the SAT a few years back, I went out to sell toys. The stall next to me was selling hot dogs, and they made more in one month than I made in six," I explained.She lowered her head and asked absent-mindedly, "You didn't go to college after the SAT?"I went quiet.It took a while before she realized the shift in me. When she finally looked up, she saw the despondent look on my face."My family… doesn't need two college graduates," I murmured. That one sentence said more than a million.Savannah grew even more upset. She walked over and wrapped her arms around me, pressing her cheek against my chest. "Chase, if I never pay off that debt for the rest of my life… maybe we should just split up…"I panicked, then pushed her away and grabbed her wrist. "Savannah, are you dumping me?"She shook her head hard, then sighed. "No

"I was never the one you wanted to marry, anyway. I'm sorry for bothering you all this time," I said.Morgan's jaw dropped in delight, while Savannah grew more flustered. Only Steven narrowed his eyes, as if he were already plotting something vicious.I gritted my teeth and went on, "I'll walk away with nothing. We can go to the courthouse right now."He was taken aback. Then, he let out a rather regretful sigh.…Savannah refused to get a divorce, but I stood my ground. With Morgan fanning the flames beside us, she finally gave in and signed the papers.That was when everything really clicked for me.She could moan my name in bed and swear that she would never betray me. But as long as Morgan existed, she was never going to trust me wholeheartedly, nor would she stand by me 100%.If I wanted to be the Reed family's son-in-law for life, I had to retreat in order to advance.After getting a slip that indicated when we needed to return to the courthouse after everything was fina

Savannah was stunned after watching the video. Then, she completely blew up at Morgan because she realized that what she'd seen of Morgan saving a drowning child had only been the tail end of the whole thing. She'd caught only a snippet of the commotion.The one who'd actually jumped into the water and saved the kid, emerging sopping wet from the water… was me.After that, she started searching for me even more fervently than before. She threw all the Reed family affairs aside and swore she wouldn't rest until she found me.A month later, a tourism promo video for Awan exploded online. In a split second of a landscape shot, my figure appeared in the background.Less than 24 hours after the video went up, I stepped out for a walk and ran into Savannah. She really lived up to being the Reed family heiress—she managed to track me down, just from a single second of footage."Chase, I've missed you so much," she said.I put on the perfect startled, frightened expression and turned to
