"What?" Zachary was alarmed. "Chris wants you to stay under the same roof?"
"Yes!"
He squinted, realizing it was a terrible idea. "Sasha, don't go with him!"
"What's wrong?" She took a limited edition dress from the shopping bag, put it on, and smiled with satisfaction. "Do
you know how much this dress costs, Zachary? I saw it in Southeast Aciatic. The designer only makes clothes for
royalty there. But here, he bought it for me without hesitation!"
Zachary was growing increasingly worried about her.
Sasha wasn't manipulative—she displayed her greed and superficiality openly.
She was easily swayed by material possessions, just as she had been when they were in Southeast Aciatic. She had
squandered all the assets Krystal had worked hard for simply for the favor of some gangsters.

This was the girl he had spoiled, treating her as his own and hoping to protect her from suffering and bullying. He
had created a beautiful bubble for her to live in, shielding her from the harsh world outside.
But he had forgotten that a flower in a crystal ball could do nothing but look pretty, be confident, and spend
extravagantly.
"The Hamertons are a complicated and prestigious family," he said, looking at her. "I'm afraid you might end up at
a disadvantage if you get close to Chris."
"At a disadvantage?" Sasha laughed out loud, displaying her recent shopping haul. "Do you know how much he
spent on me today?!"
"Sasha..."
"Okay, okay!" She waved in annoyance. "I know you're going to lecture me again, saying I shouldn't lose sight of the
big picture for something so small. But he's different, Zachary! Since I'm replacing Lena, I must be with him
forever!"
Zachary's eyes dimmed. "Have you truly fallen in love with him?"
She didn't answer verbally, but her blushing face revealed her answer.
Zachary clenched his fists and stared at her in silence. His worst fears were coming true.
How could people like them maintain a relationship?
Furthermore, who was Chris? It was only a matter of time before he uncovered the truth.
When he learned that they were responsible for Lena's harm... At that point, only one of the twins could survive,
and it certainly wouldn't be Sasha.
"Sasha, please listen to me," he implored. "Whether it's Chris or Pamela, you must be cautious around them. You
are taking Lena's place but can never truly replace her. We're using her identity to gain money from them, and

"Zachary!" Shock registered on her face.
She had assumed he would let Lena perish once they had her in captivity. However, his words suggested that he
intended to release Lena eventually.
"How could you say that, Zachary? I told you that only one of us can survive!"
"Then let me make this clear!" His expression hardened, and his tone grew stern. "Chris isn't an easy target! He's
been with Lena for a long time and knows everything about her. If he sees through your charade, and it angers the
Hamertons, what do you think will happen to us?"
"Stop talking!" she screamed. "I don't want to hear it!"
"You—"
"I want Chris, no matter what!" She couldn't hear anything else. "Your job is to find out what Lena usually does with
Chris. You must extract the truth from her!"
