In my past life, I, Hiraya Zhao, climbed to the pinnacle of success, building my own empire with hard work and determination, aided only slightly by the Scholar System. My younger sister Stella rise to fame with the Beauty System and became the famous top beauty. Success didn’t bring us peace; only bitter jealousy and betrayal. Her obsession with outdoing me and her envy ended in tragedy, destroying our family and sending us both to our deaths. When I open my eyes, I was 17 again, standing at the beginning of it all. To my shock, Stella chose the Scholar System in this life, her eyes filled with hidden malice that told me everything: she also been reborn. But I kept my own rebirth secret. This time, I don’t need the Scholar System to reach to the top. Instead, I will embrace the Beauty System, a toll she discarded in her desperation to surpass me. With it, I’ll prove that my success never depended on anything but my own strength. But in this second life, forgiveness is no longer an option. Stella will pay for her betrayal and sins, and I’ll dismantle her ambitions while she remains blind to the truth that I am also reborn! As schemes unfold and rivalries deepen, this second life of ours becomes a battle ground where love, power, and revenge intertwine. In this new life of ours, where the beauty system and scholar system collide, I’ll rise again and I’ll destroy everyone, anyone, who ruin me! PS: The book cover is not mine, it's Ai generated.

"Now, listen to me" he commanded and I instantly looked up at him. "Rule number one, no screaming. No matter what I do to you, I must not hear a single noise. If I do, it would most definitely get worse" he said and my heart hammered in my chest. "Rule number two, when I tell you to do something, you do it, or else, I will whip you repeatedly and make sure you're on the brink of death but just enough to keep you alive." He said with a wicked grin on his face. "Rule number three, follow those two rules" he said and got up. Out of the blue, he whipped me again and I screamed. I had never felt that much pain in my entire life. "Tsk tsk, you're a slow one" he said and I held my breath as I awaited the next whip. He whipped me again and I managed to stifle a scream.

"You know what a good girl would have done? A good girl would have stayed home instead of sneaking out of her father's compound just to get a man to fuck her. A good girl wouldn't have stabbed a man like me with a pen. And most of all, a good girl wouldn't be turned on by holding a gun to a man's chest." I lean closer to her. "You're no good girl, Ivanna." "You… you're wrong." "Go on then. Come on. Pull the trigger." *** My name is Ivanna. I am the daughter of Misha Sidorov, the head of the Krasnoyarsk Bratva.

His wickedness draws me in, and when he decides that he wants me, I’m helpless. I can’t resist him, even if it means giving myself to him. He may think he has power over me and can control me every step of the way, but I’m about to show him who the real boss is.
