Chapter 1

Whack) A slap thundered in the room, and Selina Harvey crashed to the ground. Her dad. Quinton Harvey, towered over her, furning. “Selina, you snake! How could youu drug Ashley and leave her in sommer guy’s bed she’d be that if we hadn’t found her in tine?”

Selina, weak and frail, protested. “No… Dad, it wasn’t me.

“Shut up!” Quinton kicked her hand in the belly, and she threw up, making the whole room stink

He loomed over her, his eyes filled with rage. “If anything happens to Ashley, you’re done!”

But then Quinton’s wife, Sara Harvey, called out panicked. “Honry, forget her. We need to get to the hospital. Ashley needs us!“

“Coming” responded Quinton

They left, slamming the door shin. Selina lay curled up on the cold floor, shaking and foaming at the mouth, whispering. “I didn’t do it. I didn’t hurt

Shivering, pain stabbing through her, she passed out

Time dragged on. In her sleep, Selina was suddenly jerked awake by a yank on her hair. She opened her eyes to see Quinton glaring at her. She struggled, pain in her voice, “Dad Stop it It hurts.”

Hurns? You think this is pain? Your sister’s fighting for her life in intensive care because of you! You’re a terrible daughter. Why did I even bother bringing you back Quinton yelled. He wouldn’t listen to Selina; instead, he dragged her like she was a rag doll, past the servants told whispers, from the basement up to the roof

Along the way, Selina got many bruises and started to bleed, but Quinton didn’t care. With a loud bang, he hit her head against the glass door to the roof. The impact made Selina’s head spin. Her forehead was cut open, and blood poured out, looking very scary.

He stepped on her hand, crushing it, and demanded, Tim asking you one last time, Selina. Are you going to confess now!”

… I didn’t.. Dad. I really didn’t..” she sobbed

“Denying it Then k

kneel here until you own up Quinton left her there, locking the door behind him.

In the December cold, Selina wore an old pair of pajamas that Ashley used to wear, now ripped from when Quinton grabbed her and showing new. raw scrapes. She shook hard and stiutered, 1 didn’t… I didn’t…” Each word hart her deeply.

“Why doesn’t my family trust me? I wanted their love so desperately, and they had worked hard to bring me back. Why is everything going so wrong?” she wandered, and her eyes slowly lost their sparkle.

After who knew how long, the door burst open. At the sight of her brother, hope flickered in Selina’s eyes. “Hey. 1.”

But he slapped her hard. “You monster How could you hurt Ashley She’s nothing but good! I should just end you now!” His grip tightened around herneck choking her…

Her other brothers jumped in, pummeling her, their laws relentless and cruel

Hattered, bruised, and frothatten, Selina’s body co

ly could no longer move.

1. ve. Her mand slipped away, the cold seeping into her bones.

Quinton’s voice was angry and brutal. Tump her from the roof! I refuse to believe she’s my kid. When she’s gone, let the mutts have her.

Selina struggled to look up and saw Quinton and Sara glare at her like she was the worst.

Her own brothers did this to her, while her own parents just watched

1. ed. They were furious over something she didn’t even de, all because it hurt their favorite. Ashley Where does that leave me? Aren’t I a Harvey too! Why do they see me as less important than Ashley! If she’s all that matters to them, why did they make such a fuss about bringing me back home? Every time I nearly give up, they reel me back in with a bit of hope, only to knock me down again. What a joke. How absurd! Selina thought to herself.

Then, as her brothers hurled her from the roof, she actually similed. For once, she felt free and shut her eyes.

Trapped beneath Ashley’s perfect image, craving even an ounce of love while being constantly manipulated–Selina was done. In another life, she’d stay away from all this.

Selina thought she died, but now she found herself alive, standing in a dressing room

Shur was back, just a month into her life with the Harvey family. It was June 21, 2030 Selina, along with Sara and Ashley, were in a ritry shop to buy the new Chanel collection.

Chapter 1

The memory of her gruesome end was fresh. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and forced herself to accept that she’d been given another chance at life. When she opened her eyes again, they were full of determination

This was her do–over, and she was going to make it count,

Then Ashley Harvey swept the curtain aside. “Selina, you’ve been in here forever Here, Mom sent the latest Chanel blouse for you to try she

seniled

Faced with Ashley’s faux sweetness, Selina recalled what was going to happen later. She just said coolly, “Cor it

She took the blouse and quickly pulled the curtain shut, leaving Ashley’s smile frozen in place

Ashley couldn’t help but think, “What’s up with Selina! She’s changed somehow. When she first came back, she was all over me, trying to win me

over like a puppy that couldn’t replace its way. And now, she’s talking back to me? Huh!“

But she just smirked to herself, thinking of Selina’s upcoming downfall.
