Chapter

I spent the summer living in a rented apartment, focusing on my studies

During that time, I went home once, but the house was empty

I called my mom, but she didn’t answer

I didn’t try again. I returned to my rental after grabbing my study materials

As soon as I sat down, I received a message from Bella

It was several photos of her family vacationing together. In the pictures, they looked happy, a perfect family of four

Along with the photos, Bella sent a few lines

[Look, Mom and Dad took me on a summer vacation. They didn’t even think of you. What does it matter that you’re their biological daughter? You’re still alone, sulking in a corner where no one cares.

I looked at Bella’s possessive message and laughed

It was so unnecessary. I didn’t care, not even a bit jealous

I didn’t reply to her. Instead, I opened Instagram, liked the vacation photos my parents had posted, and commented

wishing them a great trip

As soon as I posted, my mom called

2/3 

She said, Zoc, Bella did well on her exams this time, and your dad and I promised her a trip. Since you’re busy studying, we didn’t want to disturb you.” 

She preempted any complaint I might have had. If I showed any discontent, she would call me immature

So, I replied, It’s okay. I really need to study. Have a great trip.” 

We chatted briefly before she hung up. I looked at my phone and scoffed

My already cold heart grew a little colder

Fortunately, I hadn’t expected anything

For the rest of high school, I threw myself into my studies, methodically and steadily

My grades improved, and so did my ranking

became more confident and got along well with my classmates

After the SAT, I estimated my scores and knew I would get the results I wanted

I let out a small sigh of relief. I was one step closer to leaving this family behind

Chapter

Ironically, this was also the day I died in a car accident in my past life

But I believed I was on a different path now, one filled with hope

Just as I was daydreaming about the future, my mom called

3/3 

Zoe, how have you been? We’re planning to send Bella abroad for her studies. What are your plans?” 

In my past life, I had received the same question. Back then, I was naive and foolish, not realizing that her inquiry was just a formality, not a genuine offer to send me abroad

After months of being ignored by the family and constantly clashing with Bella, this call had made me think I was finally regaining their love
