However, in the face of this obvious differential treatment, Sloane’s heart, which had already been shattered and
scarred, still throbbed painfully, catching her off guard.
Although she was the biological daughter of the Rivers family, from the beginning, Samantha Rivers had always
been the family’s beloved daughter.
Samantha lived in a luxurious room, while Sloane lived in a cramped servant's
room.
Samantha wore custom-made haute couture dresses from famous international designers, while Sloane only had
a few faded, outdated clothes, all of which were leftovers discarded by Samantha.
That year, when Samantha fell into the water, she couldn't swim. Sloane, desperate, jumped in to save her, but
in the end, they accused her of pushing Samantha into the water out of jealousy and locked her away for three
days and nights.
In the five years she spent in the asylum, she regretted it-regretted that, upon overhearing the truth about the
swap from her adoptive parents, she had rushed to the Rivers family to claim her identity. She regretted that, for
that cheap sense of family, she had endured repeated humiliation and schemes without speaking up. She
regretted believing their so-called excuse to lay low, only to be sent to this asylumn and tortured for five long
years.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm the turbulent emotions in her heart, and a sarcastic smile once again
curled at the corner of her mouth, its bitterness standing out sharply in the dimly lit car.
The car still sped toward the so-called “home,” and Sloane knew that was where her real battle lay-except this
time, she had returned for revenge!
As the car entered the Rivers Residence, Sloane got out and looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar luxurious
house, no warmth stirring in her heart.
Along the way, the servants pointed and whispered about her clothes.

Samantha, who, fearing she didn’t have anything to wear after being released, had kindly sent them to her and
insisted she wear them home.
Sloane didn’t even glance at it. With a flick of her hand, she threw the bag into the
sea.
“You!” Adrian, furious, raised his hand to strike her.
Sloane seized his wrist, and with a light squeeze, his arm went numb instantly.
Adrian stared at her, shocked. Why can’t | feel my hand?
“Adrian, I'm not the sperson who would let you hit and scoldanymore,” she said, her voice cold as if it
carried shards of ice, her eyes radiating a terrifying light.
She tightened her grip, and Adrian, in pain, collapsed to his knees.
Ignoring the whispers of the servants, Sloane straightened her back and walked with firm steps into the villa.
Inside the living room, her father, Marshall Rivers, her mother, Helen Ashford, and Samantha were chatting and
laughing. As soon as Helen saw Sloane, a look of disgust appeared on her face, as though she had seen
something filthy. But after Samantha lightly touched her arm, Helen quickly replaced it with a smile.
“Sloane, you're back. You must have suffered these past years,” Helen said insincerely, her tone lacking any
trace of concern, instead blaming her. “This is all your fault. You shouldn't be so reckless back then, hitting
people...”
Cough! Cough!
Marshall suddenly coughed several times, interrupting Helen.
Realizing her slip, Helen quickly
changed the subject. “Now that
you're back, you need to behave

Sloane looked at Samantha, her gaze piercing as if trying to see through her. “Is that so? Well then, you can have
this blessing. Do you want it?”
Samantha's face changed slightly, and she nervously glanced at Marshall and Helen, too afraid to speak.
Marshall slammed his hand on the table and shouted, “Sloane, stop being unreasonable! This matter is settled,
and you have no say in it.”
His gaze turned threatening as he looked at her. “If you don’t want those videos to be made public, you better
behave.”
