"Louise, although you are our biological daughter, we have had over twenty years of relationship with Elvira. Asking her to suddenly switch her position, we are worried that she may not adapt well. We can only inconvenience you a bit, and you will have to take on the role of an adopted daughter."
"Louise, thank you for your sacrifice for me, from now on we are a family, we must get along well."
"Is this the adopted daughter of the Barlow family? She seems to not quite match up to people’s expectation. It’s said that she has improper behaviors behind the scenes, luckily the real daughter of Barlow family is someone else…"
"...."
So noisy.
Louise Barlow frowned deeply; her body felt as if it was constantly being pulled, and the onslaught of memory in the brain was incessant.
"Bang--"
The garage door was kicked open, Louise lying on the ground abruptly opened her eyes, taking in deep breaths. Her body was covered in wounds, looking very disheveled.
Where was this place?
Wasn’t she meditating? Why would she suddenly appear here?
Louise subconsciously narrowed her eyes as her face turned extremely dark.
A few people not far away were approaching her with malicious intentions; one of the men had a camera in his hands, aiming in her direction.
In an instant, Louise’s eyes turned cold.
"Miss Barlow, don’t be so nervous, we just want to get to know you and make a friend. Since you just fainted, I don't mind repeating my words. If you cooperate with me today, I promise I will let you walk out alive. However, if you refuse to obey…"
The leading man sneered, his lascivious gaze made a round on Louise’s body, and he unconsciously licked his lips.
Seeing this, Louise felt her stomach churning and almost vomited!
What sort of people are these?!
"Who are you?"
She rebuked, but her voice lacked any trace of intimidation!
She tried to move her body, only to find out that her physical strength was really weak!
And the men in front of her...
From the depth of their footprints as they walked, they all seemed to be martial artists.
Before Louise could react, the leader of the men came forward, seizing her clothes directly, and the other hand was attempting to strangle her.
A cold light flashed in Louise's eyes, a gust of wind passed through her palm, her body slightly curved, narrowly evading the man's attack, and her palm even followed with a push!
"Bang——"
Another loud noise erupted, and the man was sent flying by Louise, and this was all clearly captured by the camera.
The rest of the people looked at each other, completely oblivious to how Louise had just made her move!
"Damn? What's up with this woman? She suddenly became so powerful? I kinda like this feisty spirit, let me give it a try!"
One of the men cracked his knuckles, and sprung towards Louise’s direction!
Seeing this, Louise's eyebrow twitched, and she continued to dodge while gritting her molars, while the scenario in her mind continued to race.
Louise steadied herself, only to feel a familiar surge of spiritual power welling within her the next second.
Her eyes slightly narrowed, her body started to feel lighter and lighter.
As the menacing man approached with a wicked smile, Louise dodged to one side and struck him with a punch, tumbling him over.
Bang!
Another noise echoed. She strained to control her heavy breaths, her eyes were a bloody red now.
Curling up the corners of her lips, her voice carried a chilling tone, "If you want to save your lives, get lost now."
Her words were fairly simple, yet they seemed to carry an aura of deadly coldness.
For a moment, the remaining men shivered in fear, a sense of uncanniness pervading their hearts.
Just a half hour ago, Louise was trembling and powerless to fight back; but now, she was like an entirely different person!
It was just too eerie!
Louise took a breather, then pinched her other fingers with her thumb as she felt the faint traces of spiritual power within her.
Then, her eyes slightly squinted, her voice sounding eerily nonchalant.
"Halsey Potter, 32 years old, has a sister who is 20 years old and is studying at a university. Born in Maple Town and moved to Lunar City six years ago. If I have calculated correctly, this deal you made was negotiated three days ago with a deposit of 500,000. Am I correct?"
As her words fell down, she noticed that the men in front of her widened their eyes, their bodies trembling even more.
Louise was in no hurry, she spelled out their detailed personal information that she had just deduced, one by one.
For a moment, the abandoned garage fell into a deathly silence.
Louise couldn't help but let out a laugh. "I am well-acquainted with all your personal details, including your date-of-birth. If you're smart, you'd better leave right now, or else..."
Several remaining men felt a shiver down their spines and turned to flee.
"Stop."
Louise unexpectedly spoke out, and everyone came to a halt at once.
"Leave the camera behind."
Upon hearing that, the man holding the camera was somewhat reluctant. However, the sight of his companions who fell to the ground earlier, suddenly convulsing and foaming at the mouth, gave them a shock!
Seeing this, the man immediately put down the camera, picked up his fallen companion, and dashed towards the exit.
Only when everyone's footsteps dissipated, did Louise suddenly collapse to the ground, her back drenched in cold sweat.
Only now did she realize one truth - she was reborn!
Reborn into the body of a pitiful woman bearing the same name and surname!
The original owner of the body was the real heiress of the Barlow family, who due to a mix-up twenty years ago, grew up in the countryside and only returned to the family two years ago.
Yet, the Barlow family, out of sympathy towards Elvira [Barlow who had taken her place, forced the original owner to compromise and live in the Barlow family as an adopted daughter.
Over the past two years, Elvira pretended to treat the original owner kindly on the surface, but in reality, even the Barlow's servants could freely trample on her!
Now, in order for Elvira to successfully get engaged with Tommy Townsend, Elvira didn't hesitate to ruin the original owner!
And this was because Tommy was engaged to the real heiress of the Barlow family.
Simply outrageous.
Louise closed her eyes, and it took her a long while to digest these memories of the original owner.
However, at this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside.
Louise's eyes shot open instantly, her body tensed as she instantly entered a state of caution.
In the next second, Louise saw a low-profile luxury car racing towards her direction!
Louise was startled at first, tried to stand up, but found that she had completely exhausted her strength.
Just as Louise thought she would be hit by the car, the car screeched to a halt right in front of her.
As the car door opened, a tall and slender figure instantly entered Louise's sight.
Following that, the man towered above Louise, his usually jet-black eyes now tinted with surprise. "The Barlow family's adopted daughter?"
Hearing this, Louise managed to stand up despite her weakness, gritted her teeth, and asked, "Who are you?"
"Percival Conner, the whole Barlow family is looking for you."
Percival Conner?
Louise felt a familiarity with this name.
She tilted her head ever so slightly, upon seeing the man's handsome features, she immediately recognized him.
Wasn't this Percival, the intimidating boss of Lunar City?!
