Story
The story
Switched at birth, Mia grows up in a butcher's family until the wealthy Sterlings come to reclaim their real daughter. She brings nothing, says little, and sleeps through the reunion, while Chloe, the girl raised in her place, arrives with a pig-farming manual and a notebook of questions.
At the Sterling mansion, Mia meets her domineering CEO brother Arthur and Grace, a girl the family sponsored. Grace fusses over Arthur, offers tearful apologies about a room, and needles Mia about her butcher upbringing. Mia answers with a yawn, a flat "Oh," and a complaint that raising her hand to eat is tiring.
When her phone keeps buzzing and Grace reaches for it, Mia's indifference meets a household that wants her attention.
Opening excerpt
The day they came to pick up the "real daughter" (me), I thought the "fake daughter" wouldn't show up.
But she did.
She came clutching her "Scientific Pig Farming Manual."
I, on the other hand, shoved my hands in my pockets and hopped into the car. The domineering CEO older brother who came to get me shot me a side-eye:
"Where's your luggage?"
I drawled out slowly:
"Too lazy to pack. Isn't bringing myself enough?"
Domineering CEO brother: "..."
I sat down in the car, buckled my seatbelt, found a comfortable position, and slumped back.
Not moving an inch.
