When I was first brought back to the wealthy Sterling family, the fake heiress, Chloe, just pouted slightly. My parents immediately set three rules for me. Don't eat at the table. Let people think you're the maid. Don't even dream about company shares. My parents warned me repeatedly: "Everything in this house belongs to Chloe. You won't get a cent!" Grandpa and Grandma protected Chloe: "Chloe will marry a man who takes our name. She is the successor of the Sterling family!" Later, my severe depression relapsed, and I slit my wrists. But my resentment was too heavy, and I got a second chance at life. This time, just as I opened my eyes in the warm amniotic fluid, I heard a familiar voice. Grandma gasped: "Honey... I... I think I'm pregnant!" Chapter 1 As soon as Grandma said those words, Grandpa and I were both stunned. Wait, how did I reincarnate into Grandma's womb? I looked down in shock... there was an extra little appendage! In this life, I was reborn as my grandparents' "miracle baby"—the undeniable, golden heir of the Sterling empire?! Grandma was shocked too. She immediately called the family doctor for a full checkup. Even the doctor was astounded: "Mrs. Sterling is indeed pregnant. Mr. Sterling, you are truly... vigorous for your age!" "And it's very likely a boy. The Sterling line is thriving!" Hearing it was a boy, Grandpa waved his hand and decided to keep the baby immediately. But my "Dad," Richard, standing nearby, changed his face instantly. "Dad, Mom absolutely cannot have this baby!" "Mom is nearly sixty. How can she handle the strain of pregnancy? I'm thinking of her health!" He sounded righteous, but having been his daughter in my past life, I knew his little schemes better than anyone. Richard was just afraid of having a little brother to fight for the inheritance. "Mom," Vanessa, my "Mother," chimed in urgently. "You're almost sixty. Getting pregnant now... the entire Manhattan elite circle will laugh at us!" Grandma glared at them. "In all of New York, who dares to laugh at the Sterlings?" "Your father and I have decided. You have no right to interfere!" Actually, it wasn't surprising they wanted to keep me. Grandma spent nine figures a year on maintenance and health. Years of luxury made her look like she was in her thirties. And they were already dissatisfied with Richard, their useless only son. Naturally, they wanted a "do-over." Seeing his objections ignored, Richard's eyes turned vicious when he looked at Grandma. When he pulled Vanessa outside to whisper, I went on high alert. These two had 800 evil schemes combined. They wouldn't let Grandma give birth smoothly! Sure enough, that night, Vanessa brought Grandma a bowl of "Special Tonic" with a fawning smile. "Mom, Richard and I stewed this specially for you. Pregnancy is hard on the body, you need to nourish yourself." Grandma didn't suspect anything and was about to drink. But I smelled something strange in the tonic. Something was wrong! Just as Grandma brought the spoon to her lips, I grabbed the umbilical cord and kicked her belly hard! "Ouch!" Grandma felt the pain and naturally put down the bowl. Her wrinkle-free hand gently stroked her belly, her voice helpless. "My little ancestor, stop torturing Mommy." Since Grandma stopped drinking, I let go of the cord. But Vanessa wouldn't give up. She picked up the bowl again. "Mom, drink it while it's hot. Once the baby gets nutrition, he won't kick anymore." But as soon as Grandma lifted the bowl, I repeated my trick, making her belly ache again and again. After a few rounds, Grandma looked at Vanessa with suspicion. "Seems like the Little One doesn't want me to drink this. Vanessa, did you add something extra?" Vanessa's face turned pale. She tried to take the bowl away. But Grandma held her back and called the private doctor to test it. The doctor found a lethal dose of abortifacient drugs in the tonic! Grandpa rushed over, his face dark as thunder. He dragged Richard, who was waiting outside, into the room and kicked him hard. "Richard Sterling! Your mother just got pregnant, and you two are already plotting? I've spoiled you too much!" "The Northwest branch just opened. You and your wife pack your bags and go there! Get out of my sight!" Chapter 2 Although my parents didn't want to leave New York, Grandpa was the true ruler of the Sterling family. The couple was shipped off to the Northwest overnight, but the fake heiress, Chloe, stayed. After all, although Chloe had no blood relation, she was still the raised granddaughter of the Sterlings. But Grandpa and Grandma didn't know that my parents kept in close contact with Chloe. They instructed her to find a chance to get rid of me. Chloe lived up to expectations. Every day, she acted like a sweet angel, massaging Grandma's back and legs. After three months, she had coaxed my grandparents into letting their guard down. One day, Grandma invited other wealthy madams for afternoon tea. As she prepared to go downstairs, I suddenly felt a chill. I saw Chloe's strange expression. The next second, I saw the stairs gleaming unnaturally. It was Chloe! She secretly waxed the stairs heavily. She wanted Grandma to fall from the second floor and miscarry me! No! I won't let this family of three succeed! I came back to life for revenge! Just as Grandma was about to step down, I dove into the uterus and head-butted hard. "Ouch!" Grandma stopped in her tracks, clutching her belly. "Not even a month left and he's already torturing me. What a little ancestor." Although complaining, her expression was full of love. Although Grandma stopped, the nanny following her took a step. She stepped on the slippery stairs and tumbled down! The noise alerted Grandpa on the second floor. Grandma realized something was wrong. She crouched down and saw the thick wax on the stairs. Grandpa and Grandma were veterans of family feuds. One look from her, and Grandpa understood. Grandpa immediately ordered a check of the villa's surveillance. Sure enough, Chloe was seen waxing the floor at night! Grandpa's face turned icy. "Chloe, what are your intentions?" "You aren't even related to the Sterlings. Raising you for ten years was already charity. And you try to kill my son?" "A vicious person like you doesn't deserve to stay. Go back to your orphanage!" Grandpa ordered the bodyguards to drag Chloe out. Chloe turned pale, clinging to the door frame. "Grandpa, Grandma, I didn't mean to... I just wanted to help clean..." "Don't you love Chloe the most? Don't kick me out..." At this moment, Grandma was helped down the stairs. Her eyes were cold as she slapped Chloe hard. "Tell your parents, no one touches the child in my belly!" I did a somersault in the womb for Grandma's words. Worthy of a matriarch! She saw through the essence of things so quickly! Just as the bodyguards were about to throw Chloe out, the front door opened. Richard and Vanessa rushed in, dusty from travel, shielding Chloe behind them. "Mom, Dad! Chloe might not be blood-related, but she is family!" "We won't be separated from our daughter! And we won't allow you to kick her out!" Seeing her parents, Chloe finally had support. She looked at my grandparents with teary eyes: "Grandpa, Grandma, I really didn't mean to..." But this fake weakness might fool my parents, not the old foxes of the Sterling family. They saw through the family's malice. Grandpa sneered. "Fine. Since you can't be separated, then get out together!" "From today on, without my permission, none of you step foot in this villa!" Chapter 3 Although my parents didn't want to leave, they were kicked out of the most luxurious villa in the Hamptons. Grandpa was the absolute authority. My parents had no say. After they left, my peaceful life finally began. Grandpa and Grandma cherished this "miracle baby." They hired the best private doctors and donated eight figures to temples for blessings. Before I was born, truckloads of luxury baby gear arrived. Hermès blankets were used as my floor mats. Finally, amidst their eager anticipation, I was born. A healthy baby boy. But just after Grandma gave birth, my parents and Chloe knocked on the door. Richard's face was full of sincerity: "Dad, I heard Mom gave birth. We came to see her." "It was all a misunderstanding before. Seeing Mom and my little brother safe, I'm relieved!" "Being away from you guys... as a son, I was so worried!" After all, he was their son, and he spoke softly. Grandpa sighed and let them in, even inviting them for dinner. But I knew it wasn't that simple. So the moment they entered, I was on high alert. I was a newborn, weak and vulnerable. Harming me was easy. After dinner, Chloe went to the piano to play for my grandparents. Richard and Vanessa used this chance to sneak into the nursery. Seeing my little face, Richard's eyes darkened. "What are you? Daring to steal my inheritance? I'll send you to reincarnate right now!" Vanessa approached slowly with a handkerchief soaked in chloroform. "Everything in the Sterling family belongs to us. Little bastard, time to go!" I was frantic internally, but my body was too weak to move. Just as I wanted to cry out to alert the adults... Vanessa pressed the handkerchief over my nose and mouth! Confirming I was unconscious, Richard opened a suitcase and threw me in. "Throw this little beast into the ocean with the suitcase, and I'll be at peace!" "Even if Mom and Dad find out later, they won't blame their only son!" After stuffing me in, they signaled Chloe and prepared to leave. But just as they grabbed the door handle, Grandpa walked over. "Don't leave. Stay the night." This was an olive branch. Usually, they would have accepted immediately. But Richard, desperate to dump me in the ocean, panicked. "No, Dad. Mom is still recovering. Let her rest." Saying that, they rushed to drag the suitcase out. But at that moment, a loud cry erupted from the suitcase! Grandpa's face changed instantly! Chapter 4 Grandpa's expression turned cold. He grabbed the handle of the suitcase. "Richard, what is inside?" Richard's face turned pale. He stammered. "Dad, it's just... some old junk we left here. I'm taking it out to throw away..." I screamed even louder. Grandma ran over, disregarding her recovery, and snatched the suitcase. When she unzipped it and found me inside, she almost fainted. "This is my child! My baby! Richard, you dare harm your brother!" Seeing this, my parents looked at each other, confused. They chloroformed me. How was I awake? Actually, thanks to my ability to hold my breath. Knowing Vanessa had chloroform, I held my breath and acted. I fought for my chance to live. After checking the surveillance, Grandpa's face was dark as night. He slapped Richard hard. "Richard! This is your brother! You wanted to throw him in the ocean? Did a dog eat your conscience?!" Seeing the plan exposed, Richard dropped the filial act and tore off his mask. "Dad, you're senile! This kid shouldn't exist!" "I am the only heir to the Sterling family! You created an obstacle for me!" "Just kill him now! I'll take care of you and Mom until you die!" "What nonsense are you spouting?" Grandma's face changed. Ignoring her weakness, she grabbed a golf club and smashed it onto Richard's back. "Richard, are you human?" "Listen to me! If anything happens to my son today, none of you three will escape!" The atmosphere froze. Only when the private doctor confirmed I was safe did Grandma relax, carrying me upstairs. Grandpa's anger didn't subside. "Richard, you crossed the line!" "You claim to be the heir, but can you even run the company?" "Don't think I don't know. You and your wife hold GM titles but only shop and party! You are leeches! Fine! From today on, you're fired! Get out!" "Dad, what?" Richard finally panicked. "You're kicking me and Vanessa out of the company? Dad, you're too biased!" "That brat was just born, and you want him to take over? What about me?" "Biased?" Grandpa slapped him again. "This is punishment for your lack of conscience! All three of you, get out!"
