"I'm a genius."
Thinking about our flawless escape plan, I laughed out loud in bed.
As long as I could eat, drink, and gossip with Chloe, I'd be satisfied.
Thinking back, I was inexplicably chosen by Dante, inexplicably snatched, and inexplicably dragged to a family gala.
Then I heard his people say:
"This girl really looks like Miss Jenny."
I understood instantly. The "replacement trope" had landed on me.
I was just a happy girl who liked staying home and playing video games. Why did fate do this to me?
I was stubborn and unyielding.
Until I saw Chloe at the gala—my best friend since childhood.
Since she was forced into a marriage with a business tycoon six months ago, I had lost contact with her.
"Boohoo, I looked everywhere for you!"
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Chloe and I hugged and cried.
Then I learned that Dante, the mob boss hiding in the shadows, and the dazzling Julian were biological brothers.
One took their dad's last name, one took their mom's.
I turned to Dante with a sweet smile:
"I've thought it through. I'll stay."
"Hey, why are you drooling?"
Half-asleep, Dante, the mob boss who had just done god-knows-what, came back.
He leaned in and wiped the corner of my mouth.
"Hehe... hehehe..."
I was still dreaming of running to freedom with Chloe.
Vaguely, I felt a warm body lie down next to me.
Strong arms pulled me into his embrace familiarly...
Whatever.
Enjoying this before leaving wasn't a bad idea.
