Harriet blinked. No one else reacted. Clearly, only she could hear it. Without hesitation, she responded internally. [Yes.]

In the next instant, everything flooded into her memories, emotions, a storyline that felt too cruel to be fiction.

This world mirrored her original one modern, technologically advanced, and outwardly peaceful. The body she occupied was also named Harriet Lin, which comforted her slightly. At least her identity would be easier to maintain.

But as the memories of the original owner settled in her mind, Harriet's breath caught.

Harriet Lin was the illegitimate daughter of Lin Zheng, a powerful business tycoon. Her mother had a short, passionate affair with him during his trip to Country A. She knew he was married, but the whirlwind romance had swept her up. Lin Zheng had wanted to bring her back, to keep her as a mistress, but Harriet’s mother refused. She had dignity, and no desire to live hidden in someone else’s shadow.

Months later, she discovered her pregnancy. She tried to contact Lin Zheng, but instead encountered his wife, Ning You, who cruelly rejected her. The young mother decided to raise the child alone, but died shortly after childbirth.

Harriet, a beautiful mix of her mother western  features and southern ancestry, was abandoned to the orphanage. Her unique Asian appearance made her stand out, but not in a good way. Adoptive families found her too different. Children mocked her, teachers ignored her, and she grew up quiet, reserved, and isolated.

Yet, she never gave up. She studied hard, earned a scholarship, and was accepted into university. Life seemed to be taking a turn for the better.

Until Ning You found her.

She was ripped from school, dragged to Country M, and thrust into the toxic Lin household. Lin Zheng acknowledged her with mild surprise, offering minimal resources out of guilt. But the momentary attention he gave her enraged Ning You and Lin Meixue, his legitimate daughter.

They tormented Harriet, making her life a waking nightmare. But it wasn’t just spite they had a plan. A cruel, disgusting plan.

They wanted Harriet to seduce Shen Wenyu, Lin Meixue’s husband.

Shen Wenyu, Harriet’s target in this world. The "Son of Heaven." Heir to the Shen Enterprises, one of the three most powerful families in the country. Ruthless, cold, and emotionally distant. And in love with someone else: Zhu Bailian.

Zhu Bailian, a cheerful, charitable heiress, pure-hearted and radiant. Unlike others in high society, she was genuinely kind. Shen Wenyu had fallen for her quietly, secretly observing her from afar. Their first interaction came when he rescued her at a dinner party. Though cold, his actions were sincere. Zhu Bailian was not afraid of him. She believed in his hidden goodness. And that belief made Shen Wenyu crave her light.

But she didn’t love him back.

She fell for Jiang Yu instead another powerful businessman, a gentleman, warm, persistent and a talented man. Their relationship blossomed while Shen Wenyu could only watch. When he confessed, Zhu Bailian gently rejected him. He was married, after all.

Lin Meixue, proud and arrogant, realized her husband’s heart wasn’t hers. Enraged, she tried to fix their marriage, but Shen Wenyu ignored her. Fueled by jealousy, she planned to ruin both Shen Wenyu and Zhu Bailian.

She staged a kidnapping, hoping to test Shen Wenyu. But her scheme led to a car crash. Shen Wenyu slipped into a coma for five months and woke up with a damaged spine. Doctors warned it would take long therapy before he could walk again. There's also a chance that he may never be able to walk again.
