Chapter 1

Pearl Sullivan slipped her arm through mine and said in a sweet voice, “Mindy, who are you going to choose? I think Daniel is a great option.”I was confused. It took me a moment to return to my senses. I put two and two together before realizing that I had returned to the past.I turned to look at Pearl. A chill ran through me.She was my father’s illegitimate daughter. After her mother died, my father brought her home. He said she could keep me company.In my past life, Pearl had married Max Lawrence and lived in luxury.On the other hand, I was beaten to death.When I heard her words, I clenched my fists.“Max and I grew up together. When my mother was still alive, she said she wanted me to marry into the Lawrence family.”Pearl said from the side, “But Max has no mind of his own. I’ve already asked around for you. His mother is very controlling. Didn’t you say before that Mrs. Lawrence was very strict with you? She’s probably afraid you’d take him away.”“That’s right, Min

I felt a chill in my heart.The chat kept flashing in front of me.[Girl, don’t blame your sister. She just wants you to be happy!][Daniel is really a rising star. If you stay with him, you won’t regret it!][Yeah, hurry up and agree to it. The Lawrence family will put pressure on you soon. That old woman will humiliate you!]Seeing those comments, I took a deep breath and looked at Daniel. “Are you sure this was from me?”“Mindy, I know you feel embarrassed, but I’m serious. When I received your ring, I was already prepared. This is everything I own. I want to stay with you for my whole life.”Rachel sneered. “Mindy, are you trying to be a two-timer? Even if the Lawrence family is not that impressive, we would never compete with someone like him.“This engagement—”“Mrs. Lawrence, since you’re not happy with it, let’s end this engagement,” I said seriously. “The Lawrence family and the Sullivan family are evenly matched. A marriage like this should benefit both sides. But yo

The chat in front of me immediately started popping up again.[Girl, your match is already set. Stop making a scene.][Why do you have to pick Max? Didn’t you see how arrogant Mrs. Lawrence was just now? They clearly don’t want you in their family.][Girl, don’t mess this up.]Seeing all these comments, I could not help but laugh. I shook off Daniel’s hand and said to them, “I’ll never marry you. Give up on that idea.”My father’s face turned red with anger. “You don’t get a say in this! I’m announcing the engagement right now! The wedding will be in three days!”“No way!”I tried to rush out, but the bodyguards pushed me down and held me on the floor. Pearl walked over to me.“Mindy, don’t make Dad sad, okay?”I glanced at her. “I’m not your sister. My mother only gave birth to me.“I’d rather die than marry him.”“You don’t get a choice in this!” my father shouted. He quickly softened his tone. “Mindy, I’m doing this for your own good.“You’re an adult, and I have never a

When I caught sight of Connor Hill’s face, I felt so much relief that I fainted on the spot. When I woke up, I was already lying on a warm bed. Connor was seated there with his back to me. He was on the phone.I could not hear him clearly. I only caught fragments about the Sullivan family.I let out a soft sound. Connor ended the call and turned to look at me. When he saw I was awake, he smiled. “You’re pretty tough.”“Mr. Hill, thank you.”“Is that all you have to say?”I coughed lightly. “The Northvale project is yours.”From the beginning, I had made two plans. If Rachel agreed, I would give the Northvale project to her. If she refused, I would give it to the Hill family. As long as one of them came to save me, it would be enough. As expected, Rachel had refused.I never planned to marry Max anyway. Whether the chat comments were real or not, just the thought of him marrying Pearl in my past life made me feel disgusted.Connor was actually a good choice. Seeing him, I trie

Rachel still looked displeased, but I had a powerful backer. She gave in out of respect for the Hill family.“I know calling off the engagement puts the Lawrence family in a difficult position. To show my apology, I’ll take the lead and transfer all logistics rights from our supply chain partners to the Lawrence family.“In return, Max must not marry any daughters from the Sullivan family.”“Don’t worry about that. I’ve no interest in an illegitimate daughter.”In my past life, I ended up with Daniel, so Max had no choice but to marry Pearl. I still did not know what tricks Pearl had used. Even though Rachel looked down on her, she did not stop the marriage.After the wedding, Pearl and Max lived quite well. I was the one who ended up the most miserable.Rachel’s words put me completely at ease.Connor came with me to the Sullivan family villa. As soon as we arrived, we saw Daniel’s family making a scene at the entrance.“You promised an engagement with our family. What happene

I smiled. I took out the contract and handed it to my father. “The Lawrence family has called off the engagement, so Pearl is free to marry Daniel now.“Besides, I found surveillance footage of her stealing my ring from the studio. If I expose this, do you think the police will let her off? That was my entry for a competition.“If the Sullivan family gets dragged through public backlash, I think you know what to do.”My father looked at Pearl. Hesitation showed in his eyes at first, then it turned into determination.“Pearl, you’ll marry Daniel.”Pearl immediately froze. Daniel stared at me in disbelief. A trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes.I smiled. Pearl would finally suffer the consequences of what she had done.Natalie was stunned. “That’s impossible!”“Why would it be impossible? Or do you think Daniel, with his current reputation and ability, is even good enough for me?”I snorted. Connor held my hand. “That’s right. Now that Mindy is my wife, the Sullivan family

I raised my eyebrow. After sending Daniel away, Connor went to prepare for the wedding first.I went to study with my father.Since Pearl was getting married, my father had already prepared her wedding gift. Since I was marrying Connor, I would not get any less.When my father heard I had come to ask for my wedding gift, he broke into a cold sweat.He grabbed me and said, “Mindy, you’ve really grown bold. You’re asking me for your wedding gift now?”“Shouldn’t I? If you don’t want to give it, I’ll leave the Sullivan family and cut ties with you. The world will be able to read it when I make a press release. You can handle the damage from there.“I still have my mother’s side of the family to rely on. In the worst case scenario, I’ll go to my grandfather. I’m sure my uncles will also support me.”In truth, I was not entirely sure. In my past life, I was beaten so badly that when I finally went to my grandfather, he was already sick. My uncles had also ignored my request for help.

That night, I could not fall asleep no matter how much I tossed and turned. I got up and went downstairs to get some water. As I passed Pearl’s room, I heard her voice. Her tone was sharp and furious.“System, no matter how many hints I throw at her, she wouldn’t fall for it. I have been setting this up for so long, and it’s completely useless.“Host, the female lead is very likely to have awakened to self-awareness. There’s still a chance. Try harder. You might still fix this.“You can also create more chat messages to make her believe Connor is the villain. I hope it’s still not too late. Otherwise, I’m going to erase you.”At that moment, I understood everything. System?Heh.A parasite like her had partnered up with another parasite. In my past life, I was deceived by the pair. Otherwise, they would not have gotten things so easily.I planned to cut off all her escape routes.I needed to use this marriage as a stepping stone and completely break free from the control of the

Chapter 9

She helped Daniel rise quickly and became the most favored daughter-in-law in the Quinn family.At some point, she had changed her mind. She wanted to replace me and marry Daniel, as if she meant to beat me at my own game.I never understood where her need to win came from.When Pearl came back to my father to ask for her wedding gift, she found out I had already taken three hundred million. That only made her unhappier.“Why does she get so much, while I only get thirty million? Dad, you can’t be unfair. I’m now Daniel’s biggest supporter.”My father’s face darkened. “That was what her mother left her. Pearl, don’t be so greedy.”Pearl’s face instantly turned pale. Still, she took the thirty million from my father. That was probably the last bit of money she would ever get.I just smiled and said nothing. On the wedding day, Connor’s invitation brought in many people from high society. On Daniel’s side, the place was almost empty.I did not care. As long as those two got marri
