Chapter 2

What had happened yesterday kept

playing on a loop in Isabella’s mind. When she finally gathered her thoughts, she was already outside her parents‘ house.

The door was left ajar, and the waves of delighted laughter from inside made

Isabella’s heart throb.

“That bitch Isabella should be waking up in that old man’s bed now!” said a young woman smugly in an excited voice.

Isabella couldn’t be more familiar with that voice. The girl speaking was Samantha Lang, who studied at the National

University of Lucsia and had started her career in showbiz two years ago after gaining popularity in a TV show.

Before all that happened, Isabella was her

fan.

Isabella liked Samantha very much, and so did her parents. Samantha’s posters were

pasted on all the walls of their house.

Isabella had been overjoyed that her

parents liked the same celebrity as her, which was not the typical case in most families.

She had even thought that because of their shared love for Samantha, she had become much closer to her parents, who

her.

However, yesterday, she was told a jaw- dropping fact.

She and Samantha had been swapped after they were born.

The odd atmosphere at home in the past week now made sense to Isabella.

Everyone had known the truth, but as someone whose whole life would be

changed by it, she had been kept in the dark all this time.

Her biological parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lang, did not come to take her back.

A few bodyguards showed up yesterday and informed the Thompson family to

bring Isabella to the most famous five–star hotel in Dawton City.
