The Stand-In's Shining Future
A wealthy heiress from Belvoria’s elite circle asked me to be her dead boyfriend’s substitute.
My compensation included a 50,000-dollar base salary, plus 8,000 dollars per shared meal and 10,000 dollars per accompanying shopping trip.
My hypocritical older sister quickly stopped me from agreeing to this deal.
“We come from a respectable family. How can you sell your dignity for such little money?”
Yet she later became a rich man's mistress and successfully married into wealth.
Meanwhile, I struggled to balance work and studies to pay for my tuition. This hurt my academic performance. After graduation, I could only find a job with a monthly salary of 3,000 dollars.
I even developed a tumor from overworking. I eventually died in a cold and impersonal hospital, unable to afford treatment.
When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day the young heiress asked me to be her dead boyfriend’s substitute.
This time, I agreed without hesitation. I was determined to take this role.
