Knight POVJenny had always been a very special girl.Stubborn. Tenacious. Once she decided on something, she never turned back. Even if the entire world stood against her, she would grit her teeth and push forward to the very end.Just like back in high school in that small town.Anna and her little clique used to treat her like a target. Red ink poured over her desk. Trash stuffed into her locker. Rumors whispered behind her back—calling her a bastard no one wanted.But she never bowed her head. Never begged for mercy.She walked straight through the crowd of mockery with her spine held high, crushed every bit of malice with top grades, and when s

Jenny POV　　My head throbbed.　　That was the first thing I felt when I woke up.　　I pressed a hand to my aching forehead and opened my eyes. I stared blankly at the intricately patterned ceiling for almost a minute before my mind finally cleared.　　Where was I?I jolted upright on the impossibly soft bed and looked around wildly.　　This was a strange, unbelievably luxurious bedroom—nearly three times the size of my studio. One entire wall was floor-to-ceiling windows, covered in heavy, delicate fabric curtains. In the corner stood an antique carved wooden wardrobe and vanity. The floor was carpeted in a soft light color, and even the bedside lamp was simple but elegantly designed. Everything had that quiet, expensive, old-money feel.

　　I hadn’t expected Knight to ask so directly, and for a moment, I found myself at a loss for words.　　“Don’t misunderstand,” he said lightly, his tone giving away very little emotion. “I don’t care where you choose to go. My time is valuable, that’s all. I didn’t go through the trouble of bringing you back here just to watch you walk straight back into that man’s hands and let him humiliate you again and again.”　　His voice was calm, almost indifferent, yet it cut like a dull blade, tearing apart the fragile, temporary peace and forcing me to face, with painful clarity, just how humiliating my situation truly was.　　I could hear it in his tone—an expected understanding, and beneath it, the faintest trace of disappointment. As if he found it a pity th

Jenny POV“No.” I repeated the word slowly, each syllable edged with ice, leaving no room for negotiation. “Alex, whatever you owed her was your debt. It had nothing to do with Daniel, and even less to do with me. Why should my son pay for your redemption?”In that moment, a sharp clarity settled over me: Mr. Hale was right. It was precisely because I kept yielding, kept tolerating, that Alex had come to take my compromise for granted—so much so that after explaining why he favored Anna, he could now calmly expect me to give in again.I had already said no. I had even personally stopped the hospital from running the tests. And yet, in less than a day, he secretly sent samples from both children to the family doctor—going so far as to involve his estranged father. The thought alone sent a chill deep into my bones.He talked about guilt toward Anna, but deep down, had he already decided to trade his own s

Jenny POV“I do,” Daniel said firmly, without a trace of hesitation.I softened my tone, trying to guide him. “Then tell me, why do you like Aunt Anna so much? Do you like playing with Lisa?”He nodded, but before I could ask anything else, he looked at me with a puzzled frown. “Mom, why are you always so mean to Aunt Anna?”My heart dropped, but I kept my patience and tried to reason with him. “I’m not being mean to her. I just don’t like having outsiders live in our home. Your dad doesn’t like it either—he only agreed because Lisa is sick and they had nowhere else to go. But Aunt Anna messed up a lot of things that matter to me, so of course I got upset. Think about it—if another kid broke your favorite toy, wouldn’t you be mad?”Daniel puffed up his chest, almost proudly. “When Lisa broke my favorite toy, I didn’t get mad. I was nice&
