As I finish screening through the memories a middle-aged man comes barging in with a Middle-aged woman following behind him. Both of them are dressed to the nines.

The middle-aged woman as soon as she enters starts " Stupid child how did you allow yourself to be hospitalized? "

The middle-aged man followed right after her" Don't you already know that you can never enter a hospital what if the main family finds out about this we will not only be exiled but you can also forget about inheriting anything"

The woman then started to unplug all the things around me even the needle on my hand causing blood to flow out even before I could react and started dragging me out of the bed.

" What are you in a daze for? hurry up we need you to get out of here"

" Yes, darling drag him to the car and take him home. I will join you later I have to go make sure no one lets a word out and that any file containing his information is destroyed."

"All right darling hurry up don't take long."

And she changes her face faster than flipping the page of a book.

"What are you waiting for ?"

The woman then proceeds to roughly drag me to a black luxury car and forcibly stuff me inside.

It's kind of fun as it feels like I am part of some kidnapping by my parents.

As she tells the driver to start driving she then proceeds to completely ignore me and use her phone.

Well, that's not very polite but oh well I shall play along for now. While in the car I gaze towards the window and try to look into who these people are from the memories I have just received.

Turns out that these people are the original parents. According to the memories I have these people are the very reason for the cold yet timid personality of the original.

According to these memories, the man is her blood father while the woman is her stepmother. She is the daughter of the first wife and the only reason she is not dead yet is because according to the family rule, only the children of the first wife are allowed to compete for the position of the family head.

That is also the reason for her gender being different as only males are allowed to inherit the position but since she is a girl the family would then be automatically removed from the line of succession.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

the only reason that nothing has been discovered about her is that her mother had been pregnant with twins one male and one female but during her delivery, she had complications and died. She and her brother were born successfully but her brother had only lived for a day before dying. Her father then replaced her with him and then he sent her out of the country for recuperation but in reality, she was sent away so that no one would notice the difference.

By the age of five, he brought her back. At that time her father had already been remarried for five years. The woman he married was his mistress during the time he was married to her mother and once her mother died he married her. She brought with her a daughter of 2 and a son of 1.

When they brought her back they made her start taking classes in etiquette, math, language, and many more. They treated her badly inside the family house no different from a servant sometimes even worse but they always required the original to behave and appear perfectly in front of everyone else.

Any time that the original was not perfect or caused any dissatisfaction they would punish her by either locking her up in the basement or attic without food. They would even whip her till the point of her fainting and causing her to bleed. Yet even after all that they still required her to be up to date with her classes no failure was allowed or the punishment would ensure.

They didn't allow her a moment of rest even if she was ill or hurt she would only be taken care of by personal doctors especially hired to work for them in a room equipped with everything found in a hospital and if she had to rest for some time then the amount of work would then increase when she got better.

When the original turned twelve and started to develop she was forced to undergo surgery to have her uterus removed as well as her breasts'. They had originally wanted to inject her with male hormones but found out that her body rejected those chemicals and if forced she could die or become an invalid so they had to resort to other means and decided to have them removed.

All these actions caused the original to develop almost something like a double personality or better say forced to wear a mask. the cold exterior was only the mask she created to face everyone but inside she was very timid especially only in front of her father, stepmother, and half-siblings.

The original had been forced into her male identity since an early age and if she ever showed otherwise she would be punished. The original had tried to commit suicide but had failed and also received a punishment capable of making her no longer do it again as if she was caught a second time it would be a much worse punishment.

The original had managed to become the perfect heir and the family head was especially satisfied with her. She faced no competition from anyone in the other family branches.

When the original learned she was going to be the family head and that it would be announced in the next month she then fell into despair.

Before I could manage to read the rest of her memories we had already arrived at the mansion.

The woman got off and called four bodyguards to drag me to the specially-made ward so that I could receive treatment.

As I was being dragged away I was not able to read the rest of the memories from the original.

Yet I will make sure to make them pay for ever mistreating the original. I shall become what they most want and then eliminate them.

I will show them what it means an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth.

I find that torturing people and making them think that everything is within their grasp is fun and exciting. Especially as you watch them slowly fall into despair as the things they oh so greatly desire slowly slip away from in between their fingertips.

While nothing that they do can stop it.
