Synopsis

Chapter 1 - 1

Overnight fortune.

I won a 70 million lottery.

I quickly resigned and took the prize money home, ready to lie flat.

My in-laws' home is a luxurious city villa.

At that time, I paid the majority, so it's under my name.

Standing at the door, I couldn't help but think of my late daughter.

She had always wanted to live in such a big house, but unfortunately, she never had the chance.

I touched the small pendant hanging around my neck that belonged to my daughter, took a deep breath, and walked in.

Ethan had booked a restaurant, saying he wanted to welcome me.

The crystal chandeliers in the restaurant flickered, the piano music was melodious, and expensive bird's nest and abalone were placed in front of everyone.

Looking at all this, I suddenly wanted to make a joke, so I deliberately said, "Listen up everyone, I'm unemployed and I guess I'll have to live off my parents at home."

Unexpectedly, Ethan's face changed and he put down his cutlery, "How could you lose your job when everything is going well? You're already at this age, can't you think about this family."

Seeing Ethan's angry look, I sneered in my heart, but on the surface, I showed a wronged expression.

At this time, Sophia, who was preparing to get married, also spoke up, "Sister-in-law, there is no room for you at home.

When you got married, you wanted to move out yourself."

I forced a smile, "What, now that I'm coming back to live, Sophia doesn't welcome me."

Sophia had been in love with her fiancé for two years and was finally getting married.

She had always complained about not having enough budget, and I had secretly transferred her some money.

But unexpectedly, when Sophia heard me ask this, she immediately pulled a long face, "Sister-in-law, you also know that I'm getting married soon, and my in-laws will often come over.

With people coming and going at home, it's not convenient for you to live here.

Why don't you go out and rent a house to live in."

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the dinner table fell silent, and Ethan's face also looked a bit ugly.

I put down my knife and fork and said softly, "Sophia, what's inconvenient about this? I can help you prepare for the wedding.

Besides, I just lost my job, where do I have the money to go out and rent a house."

But Sophia still persisted, "Sister-in-law, I forgot to tell you, the circuits in several rooms at home are broken and need to be repaired and renovated again.

There are really no extra rooms."

"The whole process will take several months."

I sneered, "Our home is a luxurious villa covering hundreds of square meters with so many rooms, they can't all be broken, right."

Sophia pouted her lips and actually started shedding aggrieved tears.

Megan, who was beside her, quickly comforted her, "Sophia, don't be sad.

You're about to get married, don't bother with someone like her."

Megan is not my husband's biological mother, she was remarried later.

As soon as she entered the door, she brought a pair of children.

Sophia cried, "Mom, I've lived in this family for so many years, is it wrong that I don't want an outsider to suddenly join the family."

As she spoke, she seemed to realize that she had said something a bit too much, and her tone softened again, "Sister-in-law, I don't mean to dislike you.

You've moved out for so many years, and now you suddenly want to move back.

You have to give the family some time to adapt."

"Besides, when you got married, it was Ethan who paid for it.

Now you're directly coming home to live off your parents, aren't you being too shameless."

"Your daughter's life was short, you can't blame it on our family.

What we spend every day is my parents' money, what right do you have to spend it."

My face darkened, and I glanced at Ethan and Megan.

They all remained silent.

At this time, Jayden suddenly spoke up, "Sister-in-law, if you really want to come back and live, you can.

I'll give you my room.

But you have to pay rent, you can't be a parasite at this age, right."

I gave him a cold look, thinking that this cheap brother-in-law was just as snobbish as his mother.

Seeing this, Ethan slapped the table, "Shut up! I'm not dead yet! It's not up to you siblings to speak in this family."

Upon hearing this, Sophia's eyes immediately turned red.

Jayden quickly pulled her aside and comforted her in a low voice.

I watched all this, feeling overwhelmed.

Since my daughter's death, I had always suspected that the cause of her death was not that simple.

And now, I was even more certain of this point.

I touched the pendant, and a ridiculous idea suddenly popped into my mind.

Just then, Ethan suddenly said gently, "Olivia, don't listen to them.

If you want to come back and live, just come back.

Come, try this abalone, it was specially prepared for you."

I looked at the abalone in the plate and suddenly felt nauseous.
