The Heiress They Couldn't Break

I stand in the hospital after my two older brothers decline all 99 of my phone calls. They finally appear, bringing with them the biological sister they found. My gentle eldest brother, who had once rescued me from my so-called abusive parents, raises his hand and slaps me across the face. "Cynthia, you're actually pretending to have a terminal illness just to compete with Sarah for our affection? And you came to this kind of place to frighten us?" I clutch my swollen cheek and listen as my second brother, who always says he'll trust me no matter what, holds Sarah in his arms and laughs out loud. "Are you trying to fake being sick to get our attention after seeing that Sarah is in poor health? "Just cut the act. You've been living in luxury since childhood and have always been in perfect health. How could you possibly be ill?" Sarah Crawford speaks up thoughtfully, "Don't blame her, you two. I think she just feels like I've stolen away your love for her, which is why she has become so unreasonable..." I look at the two brothers who have doted on me for ten years and suddenly feel that nothing matters anymore. After all, I only have seven days left to live. In seven days, everything will return to normal after my departure. But by then, they'll be the ones unable to accept it.

Before I turned eighteen, I was the adored principessa of the Moretti family. That all changed on my eighteenth birthday, when my father brought home an orphan girl named Carina. "She needs a home," my father said. "You will look after her, like a sister." From that moment on, nothing was the same. My brother, who once doted on me, became cold and distant. And my fiancé... his love for me seemed to halve overnight. The family praised Carina for being gentle and obedient, calling her a far better daughter than me, their own flesh and blood. After being cast aside for Carina one too many times, I finally broke and grabbed my father's sleeve. "Does blood mean nothing at all?" My father's fury ignited. He sheltered a tear-stricken Carina behind him, and in front of every member of the family, he struck me across the face. "You selfish waste. I wish I'd never had you." "You bring shame to this family," my brother Marco's voice was as cold as a blade. "Get out." And my fiancé, Vincent, looked at me with disappointment,"If only it had been Carina I was engaged to from the start." They thought I would grovel at their feet, like I always did. But I said nothing, just walked to the family safe, removed the official documents, and drew a single line through my name. I took the engagement ring from my finger and placed it on the table. I gave Carina everything they felt I didn't deserve. After all, I only had a few days left to live. But they had no idea then that amid the ruins of the Moretti family, they would one day kneel in the rain and plead for my return.

Sa loob ng tatlong taon, namuhay si Clarissa Montefalco sa ilalim ng anino ng kasinungalingan—isang simpleng babae sa paningin ng lahat, ngunit sa likod ng tahimik na anyo ay ang tagapagmana ng isa sa pinakamalalaking business empires sa bansa. Minahal niya si Joaquin nang totoo, kahit pa hindi nito alam ang kanyang tunay na pagkatao. Ngunit sa pagbabalik ng babaeng mahal ni Joaquin, iniwan siya nito nang walang pasabi—pinahiya, sinaktan, at sinabihang siya pa ang pilit na humahabol. Hindi alam ni Joaquin na ang babaeng tinapakan niya ay may kapangyarihang baguhin ang buhay ng kahit sinong lalaki… kabilang na siya. Sa muling pag-uwi ni Clarissa sa Maynila upang pamunuan ang kompanyang iiwan ng kanyang ina, hindi niya inaasahang makikilala niya si Luis Antonio Dela Cruz—ang pinsan ng kanyang matalik na kaibigan, at isang lalaking may sarili ring itinatagong yaman at lihim. Sa gitna ng sakit, isang gabing puno ng alak ang nagtulak kay Clarissa sa piling ni Luis. At sa isang hindi inaasahang kasunduan upang makaiwas sa mga piling asawa ng kanilang mga magulang, lihim silang nagpakasal. Ngayon, si Clarissa Montefalco ay hindi lamang isang tagapagmanang hindi kinikilala—isa na rin siyang asawa ng isang secret billionaire. At si Luis? Isang lalaking dumarating sa mga panahong hindi niya inaasahan, dala ang pag-ibig na kailanman ay hindi naibigay ni Joaquin. Ngunit handa ba si Clarissa na magmahal muli, o mananatili siyang bihag ng sakit ng nakaraan?

Two months remained until debut evaluation night. Before our unit performance, our main dancer suddenly offered me her center position. I stared at her, confused, "The trainers always praise your stage presence. Why give up your spot?" "You... you deserve center more than I do." Her smile was painfully forced, and she was fidgeting with her practice clothes - obviously not saying what she really felt. Puzzled by her strange behavior, I asked, "Are my moves too big? Am I making it hard for you to perform?" She suddenly started shaking, looking at me with pure fear in her eyes. After what felt like forever, she finally choked out, "Please, just stop. I won't try to compete with you for center anymore!"

My stepson, Lucas Lincoln, is trapped in a fire. After calling the fire brigade, I quickly ring my husband, Jasper Lincoln. Jasper is the leader of a search-and-rescue team, after all. But to my dismay, Jasper is currently keeping his ex-wife, Yvonne Schmidt, company. Yvonne has won the "Forensic Doctor of the Year" award, and so they are out celebrating it. My phone calls are rejected again and again. Jasper never once calls me back, even after Lucas' cries for help disappear entirely. By the time the fire brigade arrives to quell the flames, Lucas has been burned to a crisp. I tell Jasper what happened to our son, but he only gleefully says, "He was nothing but a troublemaker who'd contribute nothing to society. If he's dead, then so be it. This way, he won't grow up to become a menace. "Yvonne happens to be giving a public talk tomorrow and is still in need of a specimen demonstrating burn injuries. She can use Noah's corpse for her demonstration since it's still fresh." I sneer. So Jasper thinks that my own son, Noah Green, is the one who died in the fire. I immediately send Lucas' blackened corpse to Yvonne's operating room.
