Chapter 1

I saved the son of the wealthiest man in the city.

In return, he showered my family with a thirty-million-dollar dowry and brought me into his fold.

Living as his wife in the high-society world felt like a dream come true.

But my sister, Jade, snatched my dowry, squandered it on drugs, and fueled by bitter jealousy, shoved me off a high-rise balcony.

She ended up tumbling down with me.

When I opened my eyes again, we had both been reborn to the very day the billionaire came to our doorstep.

She locked me in my bedroom and shrieked at the mogul through the door, "I am the one who saved your son!"

"Jade, please, let me out!" I pounded against the door with all my might.

"Clara, be a dear and give me this opportunity! Think of all the times I've been a good sister to you."

"But the person who saved him was me," I sobbed, tears streaming down my face.

"It was pitch black that night, and nobody saw your face clearly. Besides, we look so much alike―if you don't say a word, who would ever know?"

Jade leaned against the door, putting on a show of generosity. "I'll give you the entire thirty million in dowry money. That's enough to last you a lifetime."

She didn't realize that I had been reborn as well. She still thought I was the same naive girl she could walk all over.

Thirty million? In my past life, she burned through that entire fortune in less than two years!

The billionaire's voice boomed from the living room: "Are you willing to marry my son?"

"I do!"

Jade's voice rang out, trembling with excitement.

She looked like she was ready to throw herself at his feet right then and there.

"Good!" The billionaire nodded, wearing a satisfied grin.

He stroked his chin, eyeing Jade from head to toe.

"There aren't many rules in my house, but we aren't exactly blessed with many heirs. I'd love it if you could start a family right after the wedding."

Jade nodded frantically.

"Dad, I love children! I'll give you as many grandchildren as you want. I'll listen to you on everything."

The billionaire clapped his hands in delight and immediately presented Jade with several sets of gold jewelry.

Jade piled them onto her arms and began spinning around, glowing with greed.

I lay back on my bed, propped up on one elbow, and let a cold, mocking smile touch my lips.

The billionaire loved children, sure.

But his dark secret was that he turned infants into spirits to boost his wealth!

And his son was a twisted, sadistic monster.

In my past life, I was nearly tortured to death by that man.

Jade thought she was marrying into a dynasty, but she was stepping straight into a house of horrors!
