Synopsis

Three women bound together by ties of sisterhood, each at the heights of success in their fields......until the past they escaped from came knocking on their door......what awaits them at the end as they make their way back to the place where it all began????

Chapter 1Upheavals

Life was so unpredictable. One moment it takes you to the pinnacles of success, the next instant you come crashing down hard. That was how Jess felt at the end of such an eventful day.

It all began like any other day for Jess. She got up late due to working late till the wee hours in the morning tying up loose ends in the final chapters of her latest book. She was like that always, whenever inspiration strikes she becomes so wrapped up in the story, she rarely noticed the time.

At 26, Jess was blessed with pale blonde hair and light blue eyes accompanied by a heart shaped face and a lovely figure beckoning passersby for a second glance. But not only did she had beauty, she had the brains to compliment it too for she was an internationally renowned bestselling author. Readers were drawn to her wit and charm with the splendid sense of humor she depicts in her stories, a complete contrast to the reclusive reality of her existence.

She rarely interacts with others, all the publicity being handled solely by her publishing firm and barely had a handful of people she calls friends.

She was a complete mystery and people were intrigued by her.

Being a recluse with the book finished before the deadline months away, Jess found herself at loose ends as the morning dragged on. She decided to spent the day cleaning house, a task which she neglected the past few days as she was so engrossed in the book. She started from the bedroom as she made her way downstairs to the kitchen and then on to the living room.

It was when she was arranging the bookshelves in the living room that her cellphone rang distracting her attention from the task at hand.

"Hello David" Jess said as she held the cellphone to her ear.

"Hey Jess, so how is my favorite author this day?" This was David's usual way of greeting her. He was the editor of her publishing firm and one of the handful of people Jess considers a friend.

"Tired as bones and dirty as a rat. I spent the entire day spring cleaning the house." Jess replied truthfully.

"Don't tell me you finished the book?" David asked.

"Yes its finished, packed and will be there at your table by tomorrow morning" Jess countered.

"That's my girl, that's why you are my favorite author. You never give me a chance to pester you for the deadline unlike other authors I know" he remarked. "So this means you are free tonight, so how about joining me for dinner?"

"What's the occasion??" Jess asked

"We are celebrating my dear and its your treat" he replied.

"Celebrating what? And why is it my treat when you're the one who is inviting?" Jess was genuinely puzzled. David sounded so mysterious.

"I have news for you. Your book has been offered a movie contract from none other than Fox Entertainment Group and the firm's attorneys are sealing the deal as we speak. All they need now is a signature from you and we are good to go. So if that doesn't call for a celebration then what does ?" David was excited. Signing the deal with one of Hollywood's most noteworthy entertainment group was going to be one of the greatest achievements of their publishing firm.

"Oh my God I can't believe this. Are you serious?" Jess exclaimed. She never imagined that something like this could happen to her. She was dumbfounded and happy beyond words.

"Yes I'm serious and yes its true. So tonight 8 pm sharp I'll see you at our usual place. Be there OK"

"OK I'll be there" Jess replied as she hung up.

She spend the better part of the day in a good mood as she completed the task at hand. By evening she was dressed and ready with an hour to spare before the appointed time. So she browsed through her emails in the laptop, a second task she neglected the past few days. The first few were from her readers appreciating her works and queries of the sort, some were from publishing firms asking her to join and some were just spam messages. She quickly went through these, answering queries here and there, deleting spam messages when suddenly she found an email from quite an unexpected source. As she read its contents, she became ghostly white as demons from a past long forgotten reach out their claws, taunting and twisting her inside out.

Who Is the Real Daughter: Miss Lin Takes No Nonsense After Her Rebirth

Lin Yin was an unfortunate girl who lived in the slums for eighteen years because of mistaken identities at birth. Even though she was brought back to live with her real parents, there was no place for her amongst them. She was constantly bullied and scolded for no reason; her own biological parents would leave her in the dirt just because Su Fei shed a tear. Swindled, and betrayed the very person she fell in love with, she was finally going to escape her dark life when she realized that it was all a setup — that she was just a clown. She dragged her poisoned body as she tried to escape, but she was killed regardless at the loud crack of a gunshot. Her departed spirit watched as her biological parents coldly said, "She has never been our daughter. Burn her, throw her into the dirt — you can do whatever you like." As the guest left, a man stood sighing with sympathy. "Take her to a funeral home. Let's hope that in her next life, she can live for herself and not suffer so much grief." How laughable it was that she had lived for so long, but a stranger turned out to be the one who gave her a proper funeral! Soon, Lin Yin lost consciousness, and woke up to find that she had gone back in time, to the first year after she returned to the Su family! This time, she decided to live for herself without compromise! Still, just as she thought she would have to do this alone, she never imagined that she would be reunited with three brothers, although they never showed up in her last life! They were Mu Heng, the magnate, Mu Qing, the prodigious doctor, and Mu Ran, the heartthrob and movie star! In her last life, she gave her heart to the wrong people and suffered a tragic end, but in this life, her brothers were pampering her to death! Mu Heng: She's my sister! I'll protect her! Mu Qing: Who dares bully my sister! Mu Ran: She's my sister! I'll spoil her! Lu Ming: She's my wife! I'll watch over her! Mu Heng, Mu Qing, and Mu Ran: Get out!

Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Back in 1996, when the daughter of the Old Xie family, Xie Wanying, said she wanted to be a doctor, many laughed. "Phoenix begets phoenix, dog spawns dog. A truck driver’s daughter becoming a doctor is as likely as a sow climbing a tree." "I’m not just going to be a doctor, I’m going to be a female chest surgeon," said Xie Wanying. Her words provoked even greater waves of disdain within the doctors' community. Relatives who were doctors ridiculed her mercilessly: "Do you know how high the admission scores are for medical students? Do you think you can make it?" "There are zero female chief chest surgeons in the country. Who do you think you are!" A bunch of people mocked her: "You'll probably only get into a third-rate medical college and end up as a health worker in a small county town. It's easy to imagine what sort of marriage you'll have." After the college entrance exams, Xie Wanying entered the top surgical class in the country with the highest science scores in the province, with department heads in the Capital’s top-tier hospitals vying for her from her internship beginnings. "Student Xie Wanying, come to our digestive surgery department." "No, she must come to our urological surgery—" "Pediatric surgery is in short supply of female doctors like student Xie Wanying." Circles of relatives and friends: … At this time, Xie Wanying independently completed the youngest Tetralogy of Fallot surgery in the country, represented the national association of chest surgery at an international medical forum, and published the world’s first minimally invasive heart valve repair surgery, becoming truly the foremost surgeon in the field of female surgery! As for the marriage concerns that everyone "worried" about: A brother from the Returned Overseas Faction, a hot bachelor within the Capital, changed his QQ profile picture to Junior Sister Xie. The young CEO, a handsome man, came to the hospital every day with flowers, keen to offer a diamond ring. Not to mention, a whole host of suitors had long since worn a path to the Old Xie Family's doorstep...
