Chapter 3

When Alice appeared, everyone turned to look. Faced with their gazes, Alice remained expressionless.

She wore a simple T–shirt, but atop her head was an exquisite golden phoenix crown, a deep green necklace around her neck, jade bangles on her wrist, and a pink diamond ring on her finger.

Laughter erupted around her.

“Alice’s so gaudy, wearing all that jewelry at once! She looks like a newly rich person,” one guest scoffed.

“I think Alice is deliberately showing off her expensive stuff to embarrass Chloe.”

Alice strutted up to Chloe, her tone calm.“Congratulations, you finally become a member of the Welch family today.”

In her past life, once Chloe joined the Welch family, her nightmare began. No matter how hard she tried, how much she cowered and obeyed, her brothers all favored Chloe. Noah had even said he wished Chloe was their real sister. This time, she wouldn’t cling to any nonsense about familial ties.

Seeing all the valuable items on Alice, Chloe felt a surge of jealousy, but she didn’t let it show on her face. She shrank her neck at first, then answered cautiously.

“Alice, I know you’re upset, but don’t worry, I won’t compete

with you for your brothers‘ affection. After all, I’m just an outsider. You’re their real sister. How could I ever compare to you?” As she spoke, her eyes began to redden.

Alice smirked, a perfect picture of a delicate white lotus. In her previous life, she had been completely fooled by Chloe’s innocent act, only to see the woman’s true colors just before her demise.
