Chapter 1
My sister stole billionaire Damien Sterling’s frozen embryos from the hospital.]
In my past life, when I found out she was gonna inject her own eggs into them, I tried like hell to stop her. I told her this shit was illegal and she’d end up in prison!]
She finally gave up.
A month later? Damien married the woman who’d successfully done IVF with him. Big flashy wedding, all over the news.[]
My sister lost her goddamn mind. Hired thirty sick bastards to torture me for hours.]
I cried and begged her to stop.
Instead, she poured acid all over my body.]
“If you hadn’t interfered, I’d be Mrs. Sterling by now!‘
“You ruined EVERYTHING for me! So I’m taking yours!“]
I died in agony. My body was completely fucked up.[]
Then I opened my eyes again–back to the night she broke into that hospital.[]
This time? Go ahead, sis. Be the perfect little wife.
If you LIVE. LONG. ENOUGH.]]

Midnight. Sterling’s private hospital was dead empty.]
My sister crept through the halls, dragging me toward the surgery wing.
She shot me a death glare over her shoulder.
“There’s cameras everywhere, so don’t fuck this up! If we get caught, I’m NOT saving your ass!“]
I deliberately knocked over some files at the nurse’s station.[]
Emma instantly lost her shit.
“Are you brain dead, Claire? Watch where you’re going“]
“God, you’re useless! Just stand here and keep watch! If anyone shows up, text me immediately!“]
Playing dumb like last time, I said, “Emma, isn’t this way too risky? This is Sterling’s hospital. His security is everywhere. If we get caught, we’re deadr
She smacked the back of my head.]
“You’re such a fucking coward–no wonder you’re still stuck in some dead–end job five years out of college!”
“If I wasn’t smart enough to find out about Damien’s IVF plans, you’d never even know![]
Once I marry into the Sterling family, fuck the security guards–even those crusty old bastards will be on their KNEES begging me not to throw them out on the street!“]]
She patted my shoulder with this sick smile.
“Don’t worry, sis. We’re family. When I’m Mrs. Sterling. I’ll take care of you.“]
“Ive already picked out the perfect maid position for you. Won’t make you rich, but hey–free room and board for life!||
Maybe I’ll even hook you up with one of their drivers. Your glory days are just around the corner!”
She grinned and slipped into the surgery room.[]
I stood outside, watching her disappear. My expression went ice cold.
Oh yeah, sis. My glory days are definitely coming
Without another second’s hesitation, I turned and headed straight for the exit.
But when the elevator arrived, I heard voices inside.
I quickly ducked into the shadows of the hallway.[]
Damien’s cold voice carried clearly.
“Listen up–Sophia’s eggs cannot be fucked with!”
“This is our last shot. I NEED to have a kid with her.“]
The doctor was practically kissing his ass.]
“Yes sir, we flew in ten specialists from Europe. Nothing’s gonna go wrong this time.”
“Thank you for giving me another chance, Mr. Sterling. I won’t let you down.”
I’d always heard rumors that Damien had some precious princess he was obsessed with.]
Word was she was too fragile to carry kids, so his family wouldn’t let him marry her.]
Guess the rumors were true.
Oh, dear sister–you’re totally screwed this time
I watched Damien head into the surgery room, then booked it out through the fire exit.]
The second I got downstairs, my phone blew up with texts from Emina.||
ICK? Are you dead or something? Damien showed up and you didn’t even warn me??]]
[What the FUCK?
[You’re absolutely USELESS! Just wait till I get home–you’re gonna pay for this!]]
The surgery room lights were blazing. Looks like Damien caught her red–handed.
I headed home with a huge smile on my face.]
But I’d barely walked through the door when Emma stormed in right behind me.]
