Before Wendy came, he’d been nice to her. He asked about her day, worried about her. Otherwise, she’d never have been with him.

But these years, when she was sick or hurt-why couldn’t he see it? Every time she spoke up, he called her a faker.

Because she was a replacement. Then Wendy arrived.

Wendy didn’t look anything like Julia. But they were related by blood-closer than Sherry, who only looked a little like Julia. Later, stress made Sherry grow thinner and thinner.

She looked malnourished. She didn’t just look nothing like Julia-she barely looked like her old self.

Wendy was just another replacement. When Julia came back, even Wendy’s act fell apart.

She’d heard Wendy was at the old villa-just like Sherry once was. Washing clothes, cooking, waiting for Gilbert to come home. But since Julia came back, Wendy had lost everything. Gilbert didn’t even go home anymore.

Both she and Wendy-they were just replacements for Julia.

Now, everything she’d been through made sense.

From the start, Gilbert had been looking for a replacement for Julia. She didn’t know if he was faking it or if he didn’t even realize it himself.

He thought his kindness to others was real. But it was all based on Julia. He didn’t care if anyone else lived or died.

Sherry was glad she’d finally figured it out.

She kept reading the file, No wonder Gilbert didn’t believe this version.

It told the love-hate story between Julia and her late husband. People who’d seen him said he was gorgeous-so handsome that men and women alike flocked to him.

Almost as handsome as Lucas. But Lucas’s aura was too intimidating-no one dared approach him.

This was nothing like what Sherry had imagined. She’d pictured an older man-someone who looked tough, someone everyone feared, a gangster.

After all, when Julia had shown up with those men, Sherry had noticed they weren’t real bodyguards. Scars covered their bodies.

Their eyes were meaner than robbers. They couldn’t hide the killing intent. Sherry had gone to a martial arts school.

That school had been shut down later-most of the employees were gang members. Sherry had hidden in dark corners every day, scared they’d target her. She knew how ruthless men like that could be.

She recognized that look. Those men with Julia were just like them. Sherry had automatically assumed they worked for “Mr. Miller”-and that he looked the part.

But this story flipped everything. He was young. People even wondered if he was really over 40 -or if he was “Mr. Miller’s” illegitimate son.

Foreign genes were different from domestic ones. It was rare to see someone age backward. Even if they did, people would just say they looked young for their age.

Younger than others their age-sure.

But looking 20 years younger? Only a die-hard fan would see him that way.

There were a few witnesses, but there was no way to prove this version was true. It was just gossip―useless.

Still, Julia had been investing a lot in the entertainment industry lately. Wasn’t she scared this stuff would be found out?

One report, and she’d be caught red-handed,

Sherry decided to try reporting a few of her investments.

Melissa noticed Sherry had gone quiet. She spoke up. “Hey! Did this stuff break you? Lost all hope?”

It seemed Melissa also knew-the most likely reason Gilbert had chosen Sherry was her faint resemblance to Julia.

“Don’t overthink it. Even if you look a little like her, from Gilbert’s perspective, you’ll never be 100% the same. In his eyes, Julia is irreplaceable.”
