After Rosalie was expelled from university, she had come crying to me, begging me to take her in. I had handed her that emerald bracelet, which was a family heirloom, and a letter asking Grandpa to help arrange a job for her. Who would've known she would use the bracelet to impersonate me?I couldn't deny that she was a beautiful woman and indeed had the air and charisma of a wealthy heiress.When Rosalie scoffed, Jake instantly understood her meaning and stepped forward to threaten me."Right here at the gates to the Gardner residence, what I say goes."It seemed like Grandpa had given him quite a lot of authority, allowing him to deal freely with anyone he found suspicious.If he had bothered paying a little more attention, he would have noticed the stark similarities between my features and Grandpa's. Then again, Jake was only responsible for guarding the outside of the residence, so he hardly ever got to see Grandpa."What are you all waiting for? Don't tell me that you're

Since I was being restrained and couldn't move, I bit down on the hand covering my mouth, causing the bodyguard to grunt in pain.The sound had Mr. Warren glancing over, but upon failing to find anything amiss, he turned his attention to Rosalie."Ms. Gardner, you—"Rosalie swiftly interrupted him before he could finish speaking. "Mr. Warren, I'll head in right away to look after Grandpa. After all, it's the least a granddaughter could do."She put emphasis on the word "granddaughter". Since she had nowhere to stay upon her return to the country, Grandpa allowed her to move into the Gardner residence. She had told me that she would look after Grandpa on my behalf as a way to repay the favor. Little did I know that this would be the way she returned the favor!Mr. Warren frowned slightly. "Alright. How rare for Ms. Troublemaker to be so understanding and thoughtful. Anyway, I have to hurry back as someone should always be by Mr. Gardner Senior's side. You young ones are allowed t

Rosalie smacked Jake's hand away and stammered, "Y-You must have the wrong person. Don't touch me."Hearing that, Jake started to panic. He thought frantically, "What does she mean by that? If she isn't Ms. Gardner, then who is?"In the next second, he realized that everything had been a huge misunderstanding, and he had inadvertently harmed the real Ms. Gardner.As the truth finally came to light, everyone shot me terrified looks. After all, every single one of them had joined in the bullying earlier."Grandpa, I'm here," I said,After properly putting on Lincoln's suit jacket, I made my way over to Grandpa with Lincoln's help. Then, I half-crouched and leaned against Grandpa's knees."Winnie, why didn't you call to tell me that you were coming back?" Grandpa caressed my face with trembling hands. Suddenly, a bout of coughing seized him, causing him to hack up more blood."Winnie, I had no choice but to summon you back here because my illness suddenly worsened. Wait. What hap

I gripped Grandpa's hand tightly as I wept like a child. He had raised me till I was an adult, yet I had failed to look after him in his final years. Even though I had only just returned to the country, he was going to leave me already. While squeezing his hand, I begged the heavens not to take him away from me.Grandpa urged me not to cry, then had Mr. Warren call his lawyer.Then, Grandpa had Lincoln serve as the witness as he transferred all his shares in Gardner Corporation and full control of the company over to me. All of the Gardner family's assets were passed on to me alone, with none going to any relatives.At last, Grandpa signed the will that the lawyer had drafted. Then, he looked at Lincoln and placed my hand into Lincoln's."Lincoln, you're the orphan my war buddy left behind and also the person I trust most. From now on, I leave Winnie in your care. If you love her, then treat her well. If you already have someone else in your heart, then please treat Winnie as you
