Chapter 1

My sister Mia Hayes and I were both adopted by a wealthy family at the same time. One would stay in the city to keep the rich man’s son Caleb Whitman company, while the other would be sent to a suburban villa to accompany the rich man’s father Sam Whitman.
In my previous life, Mia was captivated by Caleb’s handsome appearance and chose to stay without hesitation.
But while Caleb appeared gentle on the surface, he was actually a psychologically twisted sadist.
Within just a few years, he had tortured Mia until her legs were disabled.
Meanwhile, with Sam’s support, I went to Germany to study abroad. After returning home, I entered Hollywood and became the youngest winner of three major film awards.
So Mia would rather drag me down with her in flames than miss her chance at rebirth.
But no matter how twisted Caleb was, he was still just a teenager.
Sam, on the other hand, was someone who had spent most of his life navigating the harsh realities of society.

Mia and I were finally adopted.
Mia suddenly burst into tears in front of Sam, pleading desperately: “Sir, please let me stay by your side! You look so much like my grandfather. When I see you, it’s like seeing him again—it feels so comforting. I’ll respect you like my own grandfather from now on.”
Witnessing this scene, I realized Mia had been reborn along with
- me.
In my previous life, on this very day, Mia and I were adopted by a wealthy family. Sam was the patriarch of the Whitman family, a clan with few members–now only him and his grandson Caleb remained.
Sam gave Mia and me a choice: live with him or with Caleb.
In my past life, Mia was instantly smitten by Caleb’s good looks and quickly chose him, leaving me to stay with Sam.
But Caleb, despite being only a teenager, was a twisted individual. Mia endured all kinds of torment at his hands and was eventually tortured to the point of disability, confined to a wheelchair for life.
Meanwhile, I was raised by Sam, mastering various skills and growing into a captivating young woman. Sam even sent me to

study in Germany, and after returning, I entered Hollywood. With the family’s connections and financial backing, I thrived in Hollywood and eventually became a celebrated star.
Later, I transitioned into film and became the youngest actress to win three major film awards in a single Christmas season, basking in unlimited glory.
To outsiders, Mia’s and my lives were worlds apart. Mia thought
so too.
Yet she didn’t hate Caleb—instead, she harbored jealous resentment toward me. On the night I received my third major film award, she set fire and burned me alive. Due to her mobility issues, she too was consumed by the flames.
Now that we’ve been reborn, Mia wants to steal my life.
Actually, she doesn’t need to steal it—I’m willing to give her this opportunity. After all, Caleb is just a teenager now and couldn’t possibly be more calculating than Sam.
Sam nodded with satisfaction, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes as he said, “Since you’re so filial, you can live with me from now on.”
Mia was overjoyed. She bowed in gratitude, then stood up and took Sam’s arm, saying sweetly, “Grandpa, let me help you go rest.”

Sam smiled and nodded. “Good child.”

Then he casually pointed at me and said, “You’ll live with Caleb from now on.”
After saying this, he reminded Caleb meaningfully, “Caleb, take good care of Ruby, understand?”
Mia suppressed a laugh and said to Caleb, “Caleb, I’m entrusting Ruby to you. You must take good care of her.”
Her words seemed to imply something.
Then she gave me a smug look and helped Sam upstairs.
I stared coldly at Mia’s retreating figure, thinking to myself: “Well then, enjoy your brand new life. But since this is the life you stole, you’d better not give it back.”
A cold voice suddenly rang in my ears: “What are you doing?”
I nervously turned to look at Caleb.
Though he was only fifteen, he looked terrifyingly cold and clearly wasn’t normal–obviously someone difficult to deal with.
I absolutely couldn’t let my guard down.
I took a deep breath and immediately put on a sweet smile, running up to him and saying obediently, “Caleb, hello! I’m

Ruby Hayes, and I’m going to be your family from now on!”
Caleb looked me up and down with his cold gaze, something seeming to flash in his eyes.
I could see the obvious interest in his eyes.
He said, “You want to be my family?”
I actually didn’t want to, but I had no choice.
I was just an eight–year–old child who had been adopted by this strange family–there was no escape. Even if I killed him, I couldn’t avoid the Whitman family’s revenge, so of course I could only get along with him for now.
I nodded and said, “Yes.”
Then I looked at him with both timidity and anticipation, saying, “Caleb, do you not like me?”
Caleb raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. “I like you. Of course I like you.”
I stepped forward and took his arm, excitedly shouting, “That’s wonderful! I have a family!”
Caleb’s body suddenly stiffened. He abruptly pushed me away and glared fiercely at me sitting on the ground, saying word by word, “Get lost. Don’t touch me again without my permission.”

I remained silent.

He was truly moody—definitely a weirdo.
At some point, Mia had appeared by the second–floor railing, watching me.
Seeing me get bullied by Caleb right after arriving at this house, she looked quite pleased.
The butler behind her reminded her, “Miss Mia, you should go rest now.”
“Alright.” Mia responded, gave me another smug look, then left.
I got up from the floor, walked over to Caleb, and forcefully hugged his arm, saying, “I won’t! I’m going to hold onto you!”
I knew that at this moment I must look like an abandoned
puppy that could only whimper in a corner.
Caleb’s body stiffened again, but this time he didn’t push me
away.
