She playfully glared at her son while everyone else laughed. “I guess I will have to ask San’s father to swap our children. I am willing to offer my 3 sons for this angel here,” Mom said and a united whiny “MOMMMM” echoed back making me giggle.

I muttered as I moved away from the wall. His face contoured into a frown. “What?” He asked. “That’s not possible, my father will never do that to me. He would never do that to his daughter. He loves me” I tried to make out reasons why he would never do that to me. “But he did Lucia. He swapped you for power. Your father is so power drunk that he gave his only daughter up for power” his words cut through my chest and i felt my legs and hands start to shake.

He thought Belinda wanted to dismiss him. Belinda smiled, though her smile carried a hint of bitterness. “I don’t have a strong mother-daughter bond with Caroline, but I owe her. Even though I was weak after just giving birth when she was swapped out, I should have recognized among those around me who were truly loyal and who were not, which gave others the chance to swap my daughter out. Though newborns look similar, you can still tell them apart with a closer look—and yet, I couldn’t tell the difference.

That was when I, Sadie, became Sally and that my dead twin, Sally became Sadie. I made a vow from then to take her identity while she took mine. Mom doesn't deserve any of us! I took on the responsibility of being my dead sister, Sally, assuming her identity and leaving her own behind. When our mom and others came to take her sister's body away, mom was furious and sad that it was the verbal daughter who had died, not the non-verbal one she had despised and mistreated. Surprisingly, my mom didn't even know the difference between her two daughters, and that was how I was able to switch places with Sadie without her noticing.

The reason Cora was nothing like Ms, Athena was because she wasn't her child - I was. “ There's no way,” tears fell from my eyes. “ I must have read it wrong, mom couldn't have switched me,” I cried but no matter how much I cried, the truth remained the same and her diary was enough proof. Cora was mom's actual daughter and I was the daughter of the Vanderburg family. She had swapped us because she wanted to save Cora, not minding that she was going to deprive me of everything, my actual family, my true identity. To think I suffered in the place of someone else all along. How could mom do this?

" Before I could respond, a small figure suddenly darted forward. Finn, mimicking something he'd picked up, spat in my face. "You're just his cash cow!" He planted his hands on his hips. "Dad already said you can't survive without him, that you're so clingy it makes him sick. And Ms. Jacobson said it's pathetic how low a woman like you can sink. "Face it, what do you have, other than your money? How could you ever stack up to her? A woman should be cherished and treated like a queen by her man. No one's on your side here, Willow. Don't you think that's pathetic?"

My head began to spin, but I could still hear the harsh tone in Alana's voice. "Well, did you think you could replace my mother after giving birth to your child? Let me tell you this, Dad agreed to marry you back then because I was young and was in need of a free nanny! If you dare think about replacing my mother, you will be kicked out of the Greenwood family!" I covered my stomach and took a deep breath. "There's no need for the trouble. You're an adult now and I've completed my task. I'll leave... tomorrow."

In the end, the bodyguards dragged him out. Soon enough, word spread across high society. Everyone knew Harvey had tried to have it both ways and betrayed me in the process. His wife-swapping scandal became a running joke among people. Now that I was Shawn's wife, I cut all ties with Harvey. Shawn feared that I would be upset with all of this incident, so he took me to Eldham for our honeymoon. He treated me with care, pampering me as though I were the most precious thing in his life. He even gave me everything I asked for.

I also made an effort to listen to Madeline’s thoughts, putting myself in her shoes and trying to understand her perspective. Their lives began to improve, and they often shared stories about the friends they made at school. They became close companions as they learned from each other. Together, they succeeded in getting into prestigious universities. I watched them smile often and I quietly exhaled with relief. As I became more empathetic, I no longer blamed others for my suffering. Slowly, my business began to flourish. The soul swap was perhaps a gift from the heavens. It not only saved Madeline but also rescued me from becoming someone increasingly arrogant and self-centered.

“Yes, Mommy. Isn’t this car awesome? Daddy gave me apple juice!” Daddy. I turned my gaze to the man beside me, the one who was holding me—Alpha Alaric. His expression was unreadable, eyes fixed ahead. I pulled away from him, pressing myself against the door. “What is going on? Where are you taking us?” He glanced at me briefly. “To my home. We need to get started on the paperwork.” “Paperwork?” I echoed. “What paperwork?” His Beta, who was driving, glanced at me in the rearview mirror. “Ms. Spencer, six years ago, your biological daughter, Ella, and Alpha Alaric’s daughter were switched at birth.”
