Back in the day. I used to work nonstop, grinding away like a mule. The only drink I could afford myself was that bitter, disgusting iced Americano, forcing myself to stay awake.

But the beauty of being reborn is that it gave me the chance to relive the simple joys of being a carefree girl again.

After Monica and Sadie had cried and wailed long enough, they finally got in the car. The moment Sadie saw the slight smile on my lips, she scoffed and sneered, "Why are you here? What bad luck." She had no idea what was waiting for her.

But I was in a good nod, so I didn't bother to argue with her.

When the car pulled up to the Bolton Residence, Sadie looked completely confused. "Mom, why are we at the Bolton Residence? I just want to go home and take a shower."

Monica's expression turned awkward. She couldn't exactly tell Sadie that they'd already been kicked out of their house, could she?

"By the way, where's my dad? Why didn't he come to pick me up?" Sadie asked.

I crossed my arms and said flatly, "What, did you think you were some kind of returning scholar, riding home in glory with a parade to greet you? You're ridiculous."

Zoey, don't think that just because you married some guy, you can do whatever you want. You better watch yourself, or I'll tell Dad, and he'll-"

This girl had just spent an entire day locked up and still didn't show the slightest sign of reflection. She was just as brainless as ever.

If someone didn't put her in her place, who knows what kind of trouble she'd cause in the future?

But don't worry. It wouldn't be long before she got a taste of what it felt like to be slapped around by reality.

"Enough, Sadie! Stop talking!" Monica scolded her in a low voice.

Sadie started to sense that something wasn't right, but I just rolled my eyes at her. "Go ahead and take a shower in the guest room and change into some clean clothes. When you're done, come out and sign some papers.

"Sign what papers?" she asked warily.

"You'll find out soon enough."

I opened the car door and got out, gesturing for one of the housekeepers to take her upstairs to freshen
