The smell of disinfectant lingered at the tip of her nose, everything within her line of sight was blank.

Xu Mo was blankly sitting on the hospital bed, the corner of her eyes catching the sight of the lab coat swaying with the movements of its wearer. Every sway seemed to cause a flutter within her heart.

A stranger's voice reached her ears, discussing a horrifying truth.

"This is how it is. Ling Ai experienced a minor brain concussion due to the car accident. It's nothing serious, a little rest would be enough. There are no other problems."

Immediately, a woman's anxious voice follows, "No problems? Dr. Zhao, our Weiwei doesn't remember me! And yet you claim there are no problems?"

Weiwei?

Xu Mo stiffly lifted her head, her neck still throbbing in pain. She looked to see the man in the white lab coat starting to explain, "Second Madam, as of now we're unable to find any other cause for her condition. However, even a minor brain concussion could temporarily result in memory loss... she will recover quickly...”

Suddenly, someone rushed up to her and hugged her.

"My heart hurts for you, Mommy. Please remember me, look at me, I am your daughter."

Xu Mo was utterly confused.

She had no idea what was going on!

She didn't understand why she was in a hospital.

Moreover, who’s Weiwei? Mommy? A car accident? What was going on?

Her name was Xu Mo, not Weiwei.

She was the daughter of the Xu family, thirty-two years old, married to Jiang Shengming. Although he wasn’t a public figure, he had a reputation in the business world. Moreover, she was a soon-to-be mother in her eighth month of pregnancy.

However, the car accident was real.

She remembered going to the company to find Jiang Shengming, and walking in on him in a heated moment with Xu Jiao.

"When are you going to divorce that woman? She's not even part of the Xu family. Sooner or later, my parents will kick her out. However, the child in her belly... "

Just then, Jiang Shengming's secretary had caught sight of her. The slightly ajar office door failed to hide the commotion inside or to muffle their intimate sounds.

At that moment, embarrassment didn't even begin to describe how she felt. Xu Mo felt an intense numbness in her brain.

She didn't have the courage to face them, so she immediately turned around and ran.

Down the stairs, out onto the road, a car swerved towards her, hitting her head-on.

The world was engulfed in the stench of blood, her baby…

With a sense of injustice, she closed her eyes, only catching a glimpse of Xu Jiao's cold smile amongst the crowd.

She wasn't sure if she had died on the spot, but the demonic sounds of Xu Jiao echoed in her mind. On the verge of losing consciousness, her once affectionate sister told her—

"Did you really think we are real sisters? Wake up from your dream, you are nothing but a lowlife!"

"I'll tell you this—I've been living with Jiang Shengming as husband and wife for a while now. As for the child in your belly, it's a mistake."

"Here's a secret to give you some peace in death—I deliberately asked you to come to the company today. The car was also arranged by me. If it didn't kill you, I will pull your oxygen!"

"Xu Mo, you need to die. Only when you're dead can everyone else live happily. Go and die..."

...

Is she... dead?

"Is it a temporary amnesia for my daughter?" The soothing female voice reiterated her question.

The doctor in his white coat patiently explained, "Current CT scans of the brain showed no other problems. I believe Miss Love will soon remember everything. It might be the trauma from the car accident. Don't worry, Lady, she will be fine."

Only then did Xu Mo focus her gaze on the woman standing before her.

The woman was the epitome of elegance.

Her makeup was exquisite, rested and radiant. But the key point was, this woman seemed somewhat familiar.

Just now, the doctor referred to her as Lady Two?

Yes, it was clear now. The Gu family of City C was a prominent and prestigious family. The current head of the family was Gu Bolin, who had two wives - a public secret.

And the woman standing before her was presumably Gu Bolin's younger wife.

After a lot of thinking, Xu Mo finally remembered this woman's name - Ji You.

Surprisingly, she was calling herself her daughter. So, has she become the illegitimate daughter of the Gu family, Gu Weining?
