Chapter 1 My boyfriend's childhood sweetheart , Lila Brooks , loved calling herself the bravest little bunny . When she wired money to a supplier , she entered the wrong password multiple times and froze the company account . She just giggled and said , " Yeah , it was my mistake , but I only got two digits wrong ! I'm still the best , aren't I ? " Later , she sent the wrong design file to the printing factory , and three hundred thousand dollars ' worth of products went straight into the trash . She proudly clenched her fist .

" Even if we all have to work overtime to fix this , I'm still totally crushing it , okay ? I'm the best ! " I talked to Ethan Reed about her several times .

Afterward , she threw herself into my boyfriend's arms , crying , " I ordered everything myself , okay ? All by myself ! That's super brave of me ! " "Why did she change my menu ? Why did she steal my hard work ? " " I did something nice - she's the mean one ! " Ethan wanted to promote her to director to make it up to her , but I shut it down immediately .

And at that moment , I knew for certain - I had come back . Last time , this was the same dinner to entertain Mr. Lewis from Silvergate Group . Lila had swapped my carefully planned business menu for her childish favorites - mango shaved ice , caramel pudding , mini marshmallow bread . I couldn't watch any longer . I called the restaurant manager and had the menu switched back to a proper business dinner . The deal went through flawlessly , and the entire company celebrated . But Lila went crying to Ethan and accused me of stealing her credit .

Ethan , always soft - hearted with her , felt sorry and tried to promote her as compensation . How could I possibly agree ? Lila had only been with the company a year . She froze our accounts by entering the wrong payment password . She sent the wrong blueprint to the printer and caused a three - hundred - thousand - dollar loss . Every time she caused a disaster , she'd just clench her little fists proudly and declare she was the bravest , the best little bunny in the world . Chapter 1 Goodshort AD Heiress Betrayed !

" If someone like her became director , our company would collapse in a month . That company was built with eight years of blood and sweat - mine and Ethan's . I wasn't going to watch it burn . Lila felt wronged and went out drinking . She ended up getting harassed by a few thugs and couldn't handle it - she jumped . When Ethan heard the news , he didn't lash out at me . In fact , he was even more gentle than usual .

I thought maybe our ten years together still meant something after all . We'd built this business from nothing , sharing instant noodles in a tiny basement apartment . When our company finally took off , we made magazine covers together . We'd been through everything side by side . Until my birthday , he said he had a surprise for me . That " surprise " was a group of men tying me to a chair . His eyes were bloodshot , his face twisted with rage . " Madison Grant ! It's all your fault ! If you hadn't stopped me from promoting her , she wouldn't have died ! " " You're jealous of her !

You're afraid she'll take your place ! " " You evil woman ! You owe her your life - you should die for her ! " Then he smiled and personally shoved twenty servings of food into my mouth . The pain of my stomach tearing apart still haunted my soul . Thinking of it , my fingers tightened around my phone until my knuckles turned white . " Madison , I'm heading to the airport to pick up Mr. Zhang . I'll drop Lila off on the way . " Chapter 1 9.09 % Goodshort AD Heiress Betrayed ! Her husband cheats O Ethan's voice pulled me out of my thoughts .

He walked to the door and casually slipped an arm around her shoulders . " You should leave early for Crown Terrace , Madison . Mr. Lewis likes you - don't be late . " Lila leaned against him and shot me a playful look , eyes glinting with mockery . " Sure , Madison . Don't be late , or you'll be the bad puppy ! Ethan and I will go first ! " Ethan laughed and laced his fingers through hers , his movements intimate and easy . In my last life , I must have been blind to mistake such blatant flirting for sibling affection . I swallowed the anger boiling in my chest and forced a calm smile .

" All right . You two go ahead . Drive safe . " If Ethan wanted to risk the company to play house with his little bunny , then I would gladly let them enjoy the game - while it lasted .
