Don't Mess with the Real Heiress
The Story
Jade Cole returns to the wealthy household that discarded her, holding fast to her dream of a fair college entrance exam. Her biological father Harrison, mother Penelope, and brother Shane had previously sent the sane woman to Ridgewood Sanitarium based on the lies of their fake daughter Lana. Trapped there for three years, Jade developed a dangerous dissociative identity disorder and immense physical strength, finding comfort only in her cat Nugget. Back at Cole Manor, she faces continued bias. Lana drops her gentle act, burning Jade’s study materials, destroying her medicine, and attempting to kill Nugget. These actions finally trigger Jade’s violent alternate personality Joy. Meanwhile, Shane learns the full truth of Jade’s miserable years and drowns in remorse, yet he still hesitates to punish Lana. Lucian Sterling, a brilliant and arrogant genius from Sterling Holdings, admires Jade’s unmatched intellect and shares a profound rival like bond with her. As Lana’s schemes are gradually exposed, the entire Cole family finally realizes how terribly they have wronged Jade.
