Chapter 1

My parents were slightly stunned. It was as if they had suddenly come to a realization as they looked at me guiltily. As my parents remained silent, Adam Scott walked away with a limp. I shut the door and met my mother’s slightly awkward gaze. “Dylan, it must be hard for him to deliver food in such cold weather. We don’t necessarily need that dish anyway. Can you not give him a negative review?” Even though she sounded like she was seeking my opinion, it was clear that she was concerned about Adam. I nodded and gave a five-star rating as she watched. She only sat down in relief after that. There were a variety of dishes on the dining table, but my favorite grilled ribs were not there. No one started eating. I looked down at my prosthetic leg and felt a little suffocated. Back then, when they found out I was the real son, Adam planned a car accident on my journey home and caused me to lose my left calf because he wanted to secure his position as the successor. Initia

“I’m not a part of this family, so I don’t want to interrupt you.” After my mother heard that, she immediately started crying. “How are you not family? You’re my son!” My father followed Adam’s gaze and saw me. He paused before saying, “Dylan, let bygones be bygones. It’s New Year’s Eve. For my sake, please let Adam have dinner with us.” I looked down and hid the emotions in my eyes. “He’s right. This is my house; why would I let an outsider eat with us?”My father’s face fell. “Dylan, are you really trying to upset your mother and me today?”My mother also accused me with teary eyes. “We’ve already tried our best to make it up to you for the past three years. Your dad got you the best doctor and the best treatment. Now, when you’re wearing long pants, you look like a regular person.“But look at Adam! He’s not doing well now. Why don’t you have any sympathy at all?“He has never suffered while growing up!” When I did not speak, my mother assumed that I had given in

My mother could not bear to see me like that. She rushed toward me and grabbed my wrist. “Dylan, please don’t do this. I didn’t mean what I said earlier. Please, just let Adam stay for one night. Just one night.” Her pleading voice reminded me of what she said three years ago.Instead of waiting for me to speak up, Adam immediately said, “Mr. Scott and Mrs. Scott, please don’t make it difficult for Dylan. I have reaped what I’ve sown. I’ll make a move first. Besides, I owe you a formal apology, Dylan. I’m sorry.” After he said that, he looked at me with a regretful expression, then left without any hesitation. This time, my parents did not chase after him. My mother turned around and sighed. My father also let out a long sigh. I felt unhappy as I heard the sound of fireworks going off. I tried to lighten the atmosphere. However, no matter what I said, my parents were no longer smiling sincerely.They excused themselves to their bedroom before 10 p.m. I was left alon

“Dylan… How did you find this place?” My mother subconsciously shielded Adam. She looked at me warily, as though I was about to harm her favorite son. I was hurt by her gesture. My body was shaking uncontrollably, and my eyes were bloodshot. “Is this what you mean by chasing him out and cutting him off? Also, why did you tell other people that Adam is your only son? What about me? What am I to you?” The security guards were puzzled. They wore awkward expressions when they heard my outburst.My father felt humiliated, so he tugged my arm and warned me in a low voice, “What are you yelling for? This is embarrassing!“Adam has been with your mother and me for so many years. We’re only buying him a mansion so he has a roof over his head. Why are you so stingy?“What did your adoptive parents teach you? Why are you acting like a hooligan?”I immediately laughed. “Your favorite son’s biological parents did not teach me how to act. They only taught me how to do shady dealing

Chapter 5

“Three years ago, in order to persuade me to drop the charges against Adam, you promised that all shares would be mine in the future. “But you’ve secretly transferred my shares to this fraud. How is this fair to me?” After I said that, I felt a blow against my cheek. My father had just slapped me. He glared at me. “It’s my company, and I decide how to give out the shares. It’s not your place to decide.“Get out of here now and stop embarrassing yourself. Otherwise, don’t even think I’ll give you a single cent in the future.” My mother was shocked as she held my father’s arm. She chastised him, “Why can’t you just say it nicely? You didn’t have to hit him! We’re in public!“Dylan, your dad…” Before she finished talking, I turned around and left immediately. I had an epiphany after he slapped me. Instead of wasting my emotions and effort on people who did not love me, I should be loving myself instead. After I walked away, I could still hear my father’s angry shouts.

Chapter 6

When my mother found out that I had cut them off, she immediately called me. I had just answered the call when she questioned me, “Dylan, why did you use Adam’s video to threaten your father? I’m really disappointed in you.“Is money really that important to you? Is it really more important to you than your father and me?“The car accident happened three years ago. Adam has also gotten his punishment. Why are you still holding onto it?“I don’t care where you are right now or what you’re doing. Go apologize to your father. Otherwise, I refuse to acknowledge you as my son!” I remained silent for a bit before agreeing. “Alright, Mrs. Scott. Please don’t contact me in the future.” After I said that, I ended the call without waiting for her response. Then, I blocked all of their contacts. I bought a cozy little apartment for myself. I personally chose every single decoration for the apartment. Since my biological parents were not willing to give me a home, I would build my

Chapter 7

They did that to prevent Peter from disrupting Adam’s life. However, Peter was a gambling addict. It would not be an easy task for him to change his ways and start all over again.In just three years, he had already spent all of his money. On that day, the Scott family members were meeting a few important business clients. Suddenly, they heard Peter shouting outside the gate. “Why are you stopping me? I’m here to look for my biological son! I’m telling you, my biological son is the successor of the Scott family! If you dare to lay a finger on me, I’ll immediately ask my son to fire all of you!” “Mr. Scott, who’s that man outside of your house? Why did he come here to look for your son?”One of the clients had just returned to the country, so he was unaware of the Scott family’s matters. However, my parents’ expressions changed when they heard his question. Adam, who stood to one side, was at a loss too. Peter saw that no one was responding to him, so he shouted even l

Chapter 8

My parents were no longer that close with Adam. They were grumbling when they talked to him. It was then they recalled how good I was. My mother even came to my new apartment. “Dylan, you’ve been gone too long. Come home with me. I’ve missed you.“As you’re my biological son, you’re still the best. If you weren’t swapped when you were younger, we wouldn’t have to deal with all this now. Come home with me, Dylan.” Upon hearing those words, I was angry. They had started missing me again because Adam was causing trouble for them.It was obvious that they did not love either one of us. They only loved themselves the most. When my mother saw that I had remained silent, she thought that I had agreed to her request. She quickly grabbed my hand and said, “Don’t worry. As long as you come home, you’ll inherit most of our assets. My father and I will throw a huge party to recognize you as our son.” Three years ago, when I first came home, they told me that they wanted to intr

Chapter 9

Actually, I was afraid that my biological parents would not want me anymore. However, I no longer wanted them. What would I be afraid of? I walked toward Adam and smirked. “Adam, you know why I lost this leg, don’t you?“Why are you acting so arrogantly before me? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll take out the evidence of you doing something to my brake pads?“Tell me, if the police detain you, do you think your so-called parents will try to save you? After all, without you, Peter would no longer be able to threaten them.” Upon hearing my words, Adam’s face became ghastly. He wanted to refute me, but he could not say anything. His friends saw that he was speechless, so they quickly helped. “How dare you talk to Adam like that? I’m going to exile you from this city tomorrow.”“Adam, he’s too arrogant. Let us teach him a lesson.” Adam gritted his teeth and lowered his voice. “Dylan, didn’t you tell Dad that all evidence was gone? How dare you lie to him? I will tell him

Chapter 10

[What on earth is this drama?][I bet the rich parents are embarrassed of their disabled son, so they would rather protect their fake son.]Everyone was discussing this online. Adam was finally paying for what he did. Scott Corporation was badly affected as well, and it almost went bankrupt. After work, I saw my parents waiting outside my apartment. They looked a lot older compared to the last time I saw them. It seemed like Scott Corporation was in deep trouble. Upon seeing me, my mother’s eyes lit up. She immediately grabbed my hand and said, “Dylan, you’re finally home. Are you tired? Is your work tiring? Maybe you should consider working with us again.”My father also looked at me with a meaningful gaze. “That’s right, Dylan, it’s better to work with us than with other people. If you’re willing to come back, you can be the vice president of our company.”Upon hearing that, I was expressionless. I took my hand back. “Why are you looking for me? If it’s for Adam,
