My family is the wealthiest in the city, and I'm the designated heir. But my two brothers brought home a girl, saying we'd be sisters from now on, and even allowed her to impersonate me.
Before the family inheritance announcement, my two brothers escorted her onto the stage in front of everyone.
All eyes were drawn to her, believing she was the family's chosen heir.
Chloe looked at me as I followed her onto the stage, her expression haughty:
"Olivia, this stage for the heir isn't a place for you. Get off and go stand with the guests."
"If it weren't for my brothers kindly adopting you as our family's foster daughter, someone like you would never even set foot in the Sullivan mansion."
I knew she was relying on my brothers' favoritism to act so arrogantly, even trying to steal my position as heir.
But she didn't know I'd been reborn. In my past life, I yielded at every turn, only to end up disowned and penniless.
This time, I kicked her right off the stage:
"Who do you think you are? How dare you act wild in front of me. You're trying to steal what's mine - do you have a death wish?"

I kicked Chloe off the stage with one swift move. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Olivia, how dare you be so reckless, doing such a thing to Chloe!"
My eldest brother Ethan's face was livid with rage. My second brother Nathan rushed over and slapped me hard across the face.

"Punishment? Let me ask you - since when does an orphan you took in get to replace my identity?"
Looking at my two brothers twisting the facts, my eyes were filled with cold fury. I had been so foolish before, always yielding to Chloe to please my brothers, even letting her impersonate me.
Hearing my cold words, Ethan's face darkened as he angrily berated me:
"Olivia, what nonsense are you spouting? We kindly took you in, letting you live comfortably in the Sullivan home. Yet you dare to publicly assault our family's only heir!"
Nathan could barely contain his anger as he spoke:
"It's all my fault. I thought letting you attend would broaden your horizons. I never imagined your delusions would be so severe that you'd think yourself the Sullivan heir and make such a scene in public."
Chloe had returned to the stage with Ethan's help. She looked at me with feigned hurt in her eyes:
"Olivia, I never thought that my constant yielding to you would make you misunderstand yourself as the Sullivan heir."
"It's my fault for being too indulgent. But Olivia, you absolutely cannot disrupt such an important occasion!"
The three of them twisting the facts made all the guests start whispering among themselves:
