The moment my biological brother shot me through the skull, I felt no hatred—only utter absurdity. He killed me not because I betrayed our family, but because his most cherished possession—the adopted sister Bianca, our family's “holy maiden”—had become “allergic” to my words. She was born with a divine gift: any lie caused her excruciating pain, hives, and shock. And I, the newly found and accepted biological daughter, triggered her most violent reactions with every breath, every defense. My every sincere word became her weapon to prove my “innate evil”; My desperate struggle to survive only solidified my reputation as an irredeemable “liar.” Truly, this was the cruelest joke God could have played. So when the gunshot rang out beside my ear, I felt no surprise. But when I opened my eyes, I found myself back on the very first day I was reclaimed by the family.

Ten years after our breakup, I found out my ex-boyfriend was still offering a huge reward to find me.
I let out a scoff and swiped the message away.
We didn’t end things peacefully.
The year we broke up, he got another woman pregnant.
And thanks to his mother’s scheme, I ended up pregnant by someone else too.
When he found out, he lost control and made me take abortion pills.
He cried and said, “I just want you to understand. In a family like ours, my life isn’t my own to live.”
“I can give you anything except an official status in my life.”
His mother said, “Our family will never accept someone from the bottom. There’s no way I’ll let our bloodline continue with someone like that!”
He just stood there, listening, not saying a word.
After that, I disappeared from his world.
A decade passed. Suddenly, he was in front of me again.
His face, even more refined and elegant than before, showed a rare vulnerability as his eyes grew red.
He said, “I’ve changed. My parents no longer have the power to dictate who I love.”
“Can we start over?”
I shook my head. “No.”
He looked lost. “Why?”
I answered calmly, “Because my husband wouldn’t allow it.”
