They put disgusting mice and cockroaches in her lunch box, tore the exercise book that she had just finished, and laughed at her sad and teary face.
Even worse, when the boys hit puberty and developed awareness of sex, they found her beautiful, weak, and silent.
So they all stretched out their claws to her.
Of course, they hadn't crossed the line because that would get them severely punished if the director found out.
But they would force her to take off her clothes and rub her body. They would also smear some disgusting white mucus on her.
Kristina was barely ten years old then. She had to live with the most disgusting, most painful, and darkest thing in the world.
When the McClure family came to the orphanage for adoption, they tended to choose the weakest and seemingly most ignorable one, and that was Kristina.
She was surprised and then overwhelmed with joy.
She could finally leave that place. She could finally get rid of those Satan's pawns and start her own new life.
Therefore, she left with them without hesitation.
It turned out that life was just as good as she had expected.
When she first arrived home, she was not used to it. She was restrained and scared.
She was afraid of being abandoned again once she made them unsatisfied.
Therefore, she didn't dare to talk or eat, and even when she talked, she only muttered.
Her mother had helped her ease her anxiety and trained her. In the end, she finally dared to speak loudly and smile happily.
As she grew up, her skin turned fairer, and she got taller. She became a graceful and talented girl.
Her pursuers started to get in line from then on. She was no longer the ugly little duck born humble; she had become a beautiful white swan.
However, there was always such an unfair existence in this world.
Nobody knew how hard she had worked to become that graceful and confident.
However, she always felt superior to a certain person in that family, no matter how hard she tried.
That person was Christine.
Christine was so beautiful and outstanding. Although she wasn't gentle enough, many people still fell for her because they thought she was just being straightforward.
She was not talented enough, but everyone didn't care. People thought she was brilliant and would take over the family business in the future; in that way, she would live better than most people no matter what.
She used to raise her head and look at people, eyes full of contempt.
But no one would stop her from doing that. They all took it for granted.
Her behaviors like that would only make Kristina more like a timid and weak people-pleaser.
She was like a beautiful white swan, but she faded every time she stood next to the phoenix.
She started to think that she would never be a match for Christine.
No matter how hard she tried, she would never be as good as her.
So she gave up. She stopped pursuing and competing until Chad showed up.
He brought light to her life. Finally, she had light in her life; she didn't want to give it up so easily.
Christine triumphed her almost in all respects. She almost had it all; she didn't need to compete with Christine on Chad.
Kristina didn't know why Christine wouldn't give up on Chad before.
Later, she had learned things and could understand, but the mistakes had already been made and could never be saved.
Her thoughts drifted far away; she had walked through her whole life within a few moments.
