Jennie had idolized her elder sister even from a young age. If Irene were a sniper, then Jennie would be the gun in her hand, and she would shoot anywhere Irene pointed at.

But it all changed eight years ago.

Eight years ago, Jennie and her family of four drove over to Bijiang City in the west for a four-days and three-nights holiday. Arriving at their hotel, Jennie's parents checked into one room, while the sisters shared another room.

Around one a.m., Jennie had already fallen asleep while reading a novel while Irene, on the other hand, was still on her computer reading a research document her professor had sent over.

As the room started to shake, Irene immediately knew it was an earthquake. Her first instinct was not to flee but to wake up the still-sleeping Jennie and drag her to a communal restroom located along the corridor.

The building collapsed the moment they arrived just outside the toilet. At that critical point, Irene shoved Jennie into the restroom with all her strength. Since Irene didn't have time to duck into the toilet before the floorboards collapsed beneath her, she disappeared from Jennie's view.

It took five days before the rescue group found Jennie. Although they had dug out Irene earlier than Jennie, Irene's injuries were too severe, and that she had lost a lot of blood. As a result, she was in a comatose state.

Irene had sacrificed herself for her little sister, and she ended up in a coma for the past eight years.

Irene fought so hard and gave so much to ensure Jennie's life. Hence, anyone who harmed Irene would become Jennie's sworn enemy!

Thinking of how Lee Jung Jae murdered her elder sister in her previous life and how there wasn't even a body to bury—Jennie seethed with hatred and had a desperate urge to kill him!

She was so foolish!

Not only did she not know the truth behind her sister's death, but she also even treated her murderer as her dear, respected father, and she even complied with all his requests.

Looking at Irene, Jennie murmured incoherently for a long while before wailing hoarsely. Unable to bear it any longer, Jennie buried her face in Irene's shoulder and cried. "Elder sister!"

Inside the quiet ward, Jennie's cries were heart-rending.

After a good cry, Jennie thought of how her sister was still alive and finally recomposed herself. She spoke to her sister for a long while, and when it was already after one in the afternoon, she stood up and left.

But before leaving, she casually installed a hidden surveillance camera in a concealed corner of the room.

...

The car steered into the Lee Family's parking lot. Lee Jung Jae had just arrived home after a work trip, and Jennie saw him standing under the pavilion and talking on his cell phone.

Lee Jung Jae was one of the first e-commerce merchandisers in the country.

In 2004, Lee Jung Jae saw the opportunity and built an e-commerce website called "Happy." Its primary products were female skincare and luxury items. As the business grew, operations expanded until the website was one of the most well-known online shopping sites in the country.

Nine years ago, the ambitious Lee Jung Jae established Lee Corp Company, which developed by leaps and bounds under his management. At present, Lee Jung Jae was one of the wealthiest entrepreneurs in Wangdong City.
