5 When I was seven , Liam insisted on taking me to play in a secluded cornfield . I didn't want to go into the cornfield , but he called me a coward , shook off my hand , and rushed in himself . Become SVIP ! Read all SVIP stories 12:59 pm G PO < Soon , I heard Liam's cries . Despite my fear , I stumbled in to find him . That's when I ran into the traffickers . I ran two steps , then fell to the ground because I was so young . " Brother , save me ! " I reached out to him , but he just looked at me , crying , and ran away from me without looking back... Liam's breathing grew ragged , and cold sweat beaded on his forehead . " In the last life , you always told people that I insisted on going to play there , which is why I was abducted . " I stared hard into his eyes . " Do you dare to tell me to my face right now what really happened when I was abducted ?! " I didn't actually blame Liam . After all , he was only nine at the time . A nine - year - old child , faced with such terror , running away and lying are instinctive . But when he repeatedly used that lie as a weapon against me , that understanding turned into a joke . " Liam Thompson , you keep calling me evil , but what about you ? " " The reason I became who I am today is all thanks to you ! " Liam's lips trembled , but he couldn't utter a single word . " No ... that's not how it was , Skye . I tried to save you then . I turned back later , but you were already gone . " I waved my hand . " It doesn't matter anymore . In the last life , you saved my life in the end . We're already even . " 12:59 pm G P < " Since you can't treat us equally , then please ... stop bothering my life ." Liam left , looking completely distraught . I was about to close the door when Caleb Maxwell slowly appeared from around the corner , carrying groceries . " You're back ? " " Yeah , just got here ." Caleb's cooking was surprisingly good . Simple tomato scrambled eggs and vegetable soup , but I devoured it ravenously . It was the first time in both my lives that I had eaten a meal specifically prepared for me . When I was abducted , besides being beaten and trained , I had to do all the housework every day , serving their dim - witted son , and always ate cold , spoiled food . Later , living under the same roof as Liam , I once , full of anticipation , cooked a table full of dishes for him , only for him to flip them all onto the floor . " Don't waste your efforts trying to please me ! " He had screamed , red - eyed . " You killed Mom , Dad, and Mia . I'll never forgive you in this life ! " From then on , that house never saw smoke from a kitchen again . Tears had silently dripped into my bowl . Caleb fumbled to wipe my tears , his voice filled with helplessness . " Is ... is it that bad ? I haven't cooked for myself in a long time . I'll make you something else ... I shook my head , hugging him tight . " No , it's too good ... Brother , will you cook for me for the rest of my life ? " Caleb's body visibly stiffened , then , as if making a firm decision , he gently patted my back . 12:59 pm G PO < " Okay " " The next day , Caleb took me to get a new ID . My name was changed to Skye Maxwell . I finally had a brand new identity . And Liam Thompson never appeared again. I thought , without my interference , they must be doing well . These two years at the Maxwell house were the warmest time of my life . Caleb and I lived like true siblings . Caleb wasn't a man of many words , but he never broke a promise he made to me . And I spent those two years studying desperately , finally getting into my dream school , Westwood University . The day he took me to register , Caleb took my acceptance letter to get my student ID . I waited for him under the shade of a tree , but unexpectedly saw the entire Thompson family . They were joyfully sending Mia off to college . I stared at them , Mom and Dad's radiant smiles were something I had never seen in our brief time together in my past life . Just then , Liam spotted me . His face instantly changed , first surprise , then a hint of displeasure . He hurried over , pulling me behind the tree , and whispered , " What are you doing here ? " He paused , then , as if realizing his tone was too harsh , softened his voice . " Mom and Dad don't know about you yet . Mia was still in her final year of high school before , and I was afraid it would affect her , so I haven't told them about you . " 1:00 pm G P < it . " Skye , did you receive the living expenses I sent you every month ? " I tried to recall . It seemed I did receive a mysterious transfer every month , but I had always returned I didn't want to get tangled with Liam , fearing Caleb wouldn't find me later . " I have to go ." But Liam blocked my way , looking troubled . " No , Skye , you can't go out now . Mia just got into Westwood University , and everyone in the family is very happy . If you show up ... " It would disturb you all , wouldn't it ?" I looked at him calmly . " But I also got into Westwood University . I'm here to study ! " " Skye , don't joke with me ! " Liam's tone was anxious . " You repeated a few grades and couldn't even get into community college . How could you possibly get into Westwood University ? " Memories of my past life flooded my mind . Due to the shock of my parents ' deaths and not having studied for years after being abducted , learning had indeed been difficult for me . I failed to get into college multiple times . Liam had mocked me countless times . " A thick - headed idiot like you will never get into college ! " What he didn't know was that in the corners he couldn't see , I never gave up , painstakingly devouring textbooks , little by little . Dreaming of one day getting into Westwood University . Liam saw Mia starting to look for him and anxiously pushed me . 1:00 pm GP < " Just go , quickly . Don't worry , I'll definitely compensate you later ." He even called a security guard . " This person isn't from your school . Get her out of here ! " Just as the security guard was about to approach me . A cool voice suddenly rang out , " Stop , what are you doing to my sister !
