Unwanted Girl Spoiled

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 The servant pushed open the door with a creak .

Miss Anderson , this is where youll be staying from now on The stench hit Noelle Anderson like a punch to the gut .

Damp , musty , and roming- the air was thick with decay , rolling out in waves , practically choking her .

The room itself was a disaster an abandoned storage space shoved into the farthest , gloomiest corner of the Anderson estate .

It was dark and interly lifeless , as though even sunlight had decided it wasnt worth the effort .

Noelle stood quietly beside the servant .

She was petite , almost delicate , but her bright , clear eyes sparkled with intelligence and quiet determination .

Her features were impossibly doll like : a high nose , sofly upturned lips , and a face so perfect it looked unreal .

Yet , as her gaze swept over the shubby linle room , she didnt flinch Instead , she turned to the servant with a radiant smile , warm enough to light up even this miserable space .

Got it .

Thanks she said , her voice soft and honey smooth , as if she hadnt just been shown what was essentially a glorified broom closet .

That smile it could ve melted stone The servants chest ughtened .

Such a sweet , kind girl … but what a shame .

Noelle had returned at the absolute worst time , shattering the fragile peace the Andersons had spent years desperately trying to maintain .

Noelle Anderson the true heir to the Anderson fortune hadnt exactly been given a warm welcome .

A hospital mix up years ago had robbed her of her rightful place in the family .

Instead , the Andersons had poured their love a girl , Leia Anderson , who theyd believed was their daughter all this time .

But fate had a twisted sense of humor, and Noelles sudden reappearance had sent shockwaves through the household .

and care into another For the Andersons , her return wasnt a happy reunion , it was a disaster .

Leia , devastated by the truth , had collapsed and was now in the hospital The family was torn between two daughters one , the biological child theyd never known , and the other , an adopted daughter who had been their everything It wasnt even a contest .

They sided with Leia , clinging to her and blaming Noelle for everything .

The servant still remembered the fury in Damon Andersons voice , the fourth heir of the family , as he practically shook the walls with his rage : Why the hell did she come back ? If shed just stayed gone , Leia wouldnt be in this mess ! And if anything happens to Leia , 1 swear to God .

Ill make her pay for inf Snapping back to the present, the servant forced a small smile .

Miss , Ill leave you to settle in .

Call me if you need anything Thank you Noelle replied sweetly , her tone as cheerful as ever .
