Chapter 1
Before my wedding, my fiancé and his trusted aide crippled me and threw me off a cliff, just so the chauffeur’s daughter could take my place and marry into a wealthy family.
I died a painful death, torn alive by wild wolves.
But when I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day the chauffeur was caught stealing
It was time to remind them why my father had named me Grace. Because even the fortune teller had said I was bom with blood on my hands.
I had witnessed it with my own eyes, the wolves tearing open my stomach, my intestifies being yanked out and chewed apart. I died in agony and terror.
When I opened my eyes again, I was clutching my mouth, repeatedly gagging.
Someone rushed over and steadied me, gently patting my back.
“Gracie, what’s wrong? Should I call the doctor?” His voice was filled with concern, but the moment I recognized him, a violent shudder ran through me.
I pushed him away in a frenzy. It was Chad Parrish, my childhood friend who grew up with me, the third–ranking member of my personal bodyguard team.
And the very man who had helped Antonio Kaufman, my fiancé, abduct me and sever my tendons.
I picked up my phone. The date on the screen was a year ago. I had been reborn!
Without showing any emotion, I pushed Chad away.
I press the bell. Soon, the servants and the butler rushed over.
Byron Watson, the butler, informed me that there were thieves in the house and asked for my decision.
As I leisurely walked into the front hall, Daniel Zander and his daughter Yvonne Zander had already been kneeling there for an hour.
The moment Daniel saw me, he started to beg for my forgiveness continuously.
Meanwhile, Yvonne, her face streaked with tears, held herself upright, looking like a main character who was facing struggles, strong and resilient, preserving her dignity,
The sight of my past–life enemies sent hatred surging through me. I couldn’t contain myself, I strode forward and slapped her across the face.
Yvonne collapsed to the ground, stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief. I flexed my fingers and casually sank into the

huge sofa.
She covered her cheek, large teardrops rolling down her face.
Behind me, Chad’s fists clenched, his eyes filled with sorrow.

“Grace, I don’t know what I did to upset you. But please, my dad only took what wasn’t his because I’m sick. I beg you, spare him!” Yvonne cried, her pale face showing clear red slap marks.
I couldn’t help but laugh.
Stealing was stealing. But she made it sound like he had simply “taken something that didn’t belong to him“.
The maids began to chime in, trying to plead on her behalf. “Ms. Parrish, please forgive them. Daniel only did it for Yvonne. Yvonne needs a liver transplant. She’s so young… It’s really tragic…”
“Ms. Parrish is kind–hearted. She will definitely forgive Daniel.”
Byron frowned, waiting for me to speak.
“What did he steal?” My voice was cold, my authority suffocating the air in the room.
The room immediately fell silent.
Byron stepped forward and revealed a necklace. It was the one my grandmother gifted me.
In my previous life, I had let the matter slide once the necklace was returned. Byron had warned me that being too le- nient would weaken my control over the household.
However, Chad told me that I should be kind. And Antonio had taken my hand, smiling as he told me how gentle and magnanimous I was.
How did I react back then? I had grinned like a fool, basking in their praise.
Looking back now, I must have been brain–dead.
I coldly announced, “This is Green Star, the jewelry my grandmother purchased at an auction. It’s worth 20 million dollars. You have quite an eye for treasure!”
Gasps filled the room.
