The Lottery Heiress I Cut Off My Mother and Exposed Her Lies LiveChapter 1

My mother had face blindness—she could never tell me apart from my younger sister.

Every time Penelope Fox got in trouble, I was the one who got beaten.

Senior year of high school, I ranked first in our entire school. Penelope ranked second to last. My mother strung me up and beat me for a day and a night.

I told myself she was sick. So I swallowed every grievance, every bruise, every scream that wanted to claw its way out of my throat.

Until three years into my first job, when I won fifty million dollars in the lottery. My first thought—my only thought—was to take my mother to the city to finally get her treated.

That's when I heard her talking to Penelope through the door.

"Penelope, I heard our neighborhood's getting redeveloped. I've already transferred the house into your name."

"All these years I've been faking the face blindness, giving you everything good. Whatever you do, don't let your sister find out."

I stood frozen outside that door, ice spreading through my chest.

So my mother wasn't face-blind after all.

She just loved Penelope more.
