The phone vibrated again, and the second message followed: [Always remember, you are now your sister, Iris Thompson. If someone finds out, the three of us will be finished!]
Eve Thompson saw the message and tightened her jaw.
She and her sister are twins, but unfortunately her sister was born with a birthmark on her face, making her look ugly.
Just when Old Mrs. Charlie had chosen her sister to accompany Anthony, her sister ran away from home!
With no other choice, their mother urgently summoned Eve, who had grown up abroad, to pose as Iris to get through this crisis.
Eve used special makeup to paint the birthmark and went downstairs where the butler had already prepared the car to take her home.
-
On the way home, the car was running steadily when it suddenly stopped.
Immediately, Eve felt a bad premonition in her heart. Sure enough, the butler apologized: "Miss Thompson, the... car has broken down!"
Eve pulled the corners of her mouth and, with an unimpressed look, spoke gently, "It's alright. My house isn't far from here, I'll walk back."
She got out of the car and looked at the bustling streets with a wry smile: Such bad luck!
She had always had particularly poor luck since childhood; it was common for a car to break down when she was in it. She never expected the limited edition Rolls-Royce from the Charlie family would also break down like this...
After walking for an unknown amount of time, she finally arrived at the entrance of her home.
The Thompson Mansion was located in a villa area. The three-story building couldn't even compare with Charlie Manor.
Standing at the door, Eve wiped the sweat from her forehead and took a deep breath.
Just as she was about to enter, a Volkswagen Passat drove over and stopped beside her.
Then, the car window rolled down, and a surprised male voice came through: "Iris, why did you walk back by yourself?"
Eve turned her head and saw a middle-aged man sitting in the car. He widened his eyes, which looked somewhat similar to hers, and stared at her in astonishment.
Immediately, he misunderstood something and said in a deep voice, "Did you anger Mr. Charlie and get kicked out?!"
Eve curled her lips and sneered.
This was her father, Jonas Thompson, who had sold his daughters for profit!
Sitting next to Jonas was a heavily made-up middle-aged woman. Her eyes were small, narrow and full of malice. She said, "Iris looks like this, dumb and wooden. It's normal for Mr. Charlie not to be interested in her."
Eve's gaze turned even colder.
This woman was her father's childhood sweetheart, named Ava White. He had been supporting her all these years and even had a son and daughter with her. The son was even two years older than her and her sister!
Eve knew her mother and sister had a hard time in the country, but she never expected that in these years, they would become more reckless and brazenly live here!
The front door creaked open.
Hearing the noise outside, her mother, Emma Tonkin, rushed out. She was thin, with a pale complexion and dark circles under her eyes from worry, showing that she hadn't slept all night.
She grabbed Eve's hand, her face full of concern, and her eyes welling up with tears, "Eve... my daughter, I'm so sorry!"
Just as Eve was about to say something comforting, Ava's voice interrupted again: "Since she didn't please Mr. Charlie, why don't we discuss the divorce now?"
[PS: The female lead has no birthmark, and her sister is a good person. There's a reason for her leaving at this time~ It will be explained later on, and there will be no plot of the sister returning to snatch the male lead from the female lead. Read without worries~]
