Leah had turned her backpack inside out, but it ended up a bust.
Allison saw Penelope pawn off Leah’s bracelet and then passed the bucks she got to her boyfriend.
Yep, Penelope started dating as early as junior high, with a carousel of boys spinning around her.
Growing up, not a single day in the Flanagan family was a walk in the park for Allison. Her biggest wish
was to escape with her mom, but then her mom fell ill, and her biggest wish turned into getting her
mom back on her feet.
She would give up everything if only her mom’s health could take a turn for the better. To pay for her
mom’s surgery, Allison sold her virginity. To get her mom a new kidney, Allison had to play Penelope’s
stand-in, which ended up in a miscarriage.
However, today, the penny dropped. Turned out Grace wasn’t her real mom. Leah was! And Grace was Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
the one who had wrecked her life!
How could she get her head around that?
“Patty, do you believe in fate?”
Patty looked at Allison, whose eyes seemed to have lost their spark. She had no idea what Allison had
been through. “Allison, do you know my story? When I first started working, I was a greenhorn. I was
pushed around, bullied, and framed. I never believed in fate from a young age, I only believed that fate
was in my own hands Only I could change my destiny.”
She took Allison’s hand tightly. “Allison, I don’t know what you’ve been through, but I want to tell you,

Half an hour later, Lucian arrived at Blue Mountain Estate.
Patty opened the door, seeing Lucian up close for the first time. Her eyes met his icy gaze. She saw his

This man had a strong aura that made her out of breath. He was as cold as a block of ice.
Lucian didn’t look at her and walked into the living room.
Patty patted her chest and let out a sigh. Lucian was even colder than he was described in the reports,

Lucian walked into the living room, and a strong smell of alcohol hit him. He frowned, remembering that
Allison rarely drank, let alone getting plastered like this.
He pursed his lips, walked over to Allison, knelt down on one knee, and gently caressed her face.
“Allison.”
Allison was a bit taken aback; she seemed to hear Lucian’s voice.
