The Unloved Heir Takes Everything
The Moretti Family raised a stable of orphans to be its next heir. I was one of them.
But in every test, I always came out second best. Lucia always came out on top.
Then, just before the bid that would decide the heir, I was bound to a Switching System.
Comments scrolled past my eyes:
[Oh, it's over. The villainess has always been jealous of the main character, Lucia, for getting first place. She’s definitely using the system to swap their proposals!]
[Good thing Lucia can hear Olivia’s conversation with the system. She’s already planning to hand in a blank sheet of paper.]
[So what if the villainess schemes all she wants? All she’ll get is a blank page! In the end, Lucia will inherit the Moretti Family and become the new Don! So satisfying!]
Just then, the system prompted: [Please designate your switch target.]
Without a second's hesitation, I thought, "Lucia."
The moment I did, I saw Lucia shoot me a strange, triumphant look. I knew then. She'd heard everything.
But she had no idea. I wasn't swapping her proposal.
I was taking what was most precious to her.
