chapter- 1
Tae awoke to excruciating pain, spasms rippling through his body. There were people speaking beside him.
Choi sang-bum
Dad, beat him to death. Despite Hye-sun kindness to him, he’s a cruel b*tch and treated her horribly!
Choi namkoong
Dear, I’ve already told you not to take him back, since you wouldn’t understand the temperament of a child whom you haven’t brought up on your own. Yet, you didn’t listen.
Tae vision got dark, and things became blurry. The scene in front of him seemed funny.
The three people with him were supposed to be family, but they looked at him with indifference, disdain, and anger. They wanted to get rid of him.
They didn't treat him like family; instead, they saw him as an enemy.
His father, Namkoong, a middle-aged man with a whip, was among them. Beside him stood his mother, Yeong-ae, looking beautiful but cold with bloodshot eyes.
After a rebirth and a mission across 66 astral planes, he returned to the Choi family, where love was lacking, and apathy and desolation prevailed. Now, he wasn't the old Taehyung who let himself be bullied. He had transformed into a stronger, revenge-seeking Taehyung!
His clear recollection dated back to his seventeenth birthday, marked by prolonged suffering in the Choi family. As the true Choi family heir, he celebrated his second birthday with them.
His birthday coincided with Hye-sun's, the fake heiress, who was five years older. The family prepared for Hye-sun's party in advance, forgetting about Taehyung.
Yesterday, his eldest brother, Choi jun-ho, tossed him a teddy bear. It had a pretty pink color. However, this morning, Hye-sun took the teddy bear from him. Tae asked for it back, leading to an argument where Hye-sun slipped and fell down the stairs. Hye-sun cried, saying it was a mistake; she didn't mean to take the teddy bear. She just wanted to clean it before giving it back. Such a generous excuse from a caring elder sister.
Taehyung's family blamed him, accusing him of pushing Hye-sun down the stairs. They called him evil and ungrateful.
After returning from the hospital, Namkoong violently whipped him until he fell unconscious. Coincidentally, Taehyung was reborn right after he passed out
Choi yeong-ae
Dear, I think he fainted.
Yeong-ae commented with a frown, looking disgusted at the boy lying on the floor. The village boy wasn't raised by Yeong-ae, she had no love for him and considered him a pain.
Choi sang-bum
Fainted? He's just playing to avoid trouble.
Sang-bum said approaching with a basin of water.
Choi sang-bum
Dad, excuse me, I'll wake him up.
Unnoticed, Taehyung lying on the floor suddenly opened his eyes, cold and determined, mocking those around him.
With a wicked laugh, Sang-bum was about to pour cold water on Tae. Suddenly, the unconscious taehyung got up and took the whip from Namkoong. The Choi family was horrified. A hint of a smile appeared on tae's face. With all his strength, he cracked the whip at Sang-bum face. As an idol and singer, Sang-bum face was his prize and possession. His face was worth upto fifty million won.
Choi sang-bum
How dare you.
Sang-bum roared angrily, feeling a burning sensation on his face.Due to the unexpected force, he ended up spilling the cold water on himself, soaking his clothes.
Sang-bum gritted his teeth
kim taehyung
Too bad i just woke up. I'm still weak and don't have strength.
Taehyung singhed while playing with the whip in his hand.
kim taehyung
I couldn't kill you with single whip
Sang-bum shook with rage. No, it couldn't be. Tae wasn't that type of person! he behaved like a tail-wagging dog, always appeasing them, without a trace of dignity. No matter how poorly they treated him, he stuck around like a persistent, unshooable fly. Yeong-ae's heart ached as she observed the wound on her son's face. She glared at Taehyung.
Choi yeong-ae
Are you crazy?! Don't you know that you ..
Taehyung returned a threatening stare
kim taehyung
You're so noisy!
Yeong-ae felt intimidated by his gaze, swallowing his words. When she grasped the situation, flames seemed ready to burst.
kim taehyung
I said you're very noisy
Choi yeong-ae
Get out, get out from here
Yeong-ae face twisted with fury, pointing at tae with trembling fingers.
Choi yeong-ae
Dear, remover him from here; I don't consider him my child! I'll pretend i never give birth to him.
kim taehyung
That works for me
kim taehyung
I'll also pretend i never had you as my mother. I only had one mother and her name is Kim Hee-sun
His past self had naively hoped that being nice and obedient would make them notice and like him someday.
Nevertheless, that day never arrived. Despite his earnest efforts and accomplishments, he remained inferior to hye-sun . From the beginning, all his hard work amounted to nothing. To them, he was just a parasitic and pitiful dog, obliged to bow down and submit whenever his family tossed him a bone. Hye-sun was their cherished darling. As the genuine heiress of the Choi family, his existence was consistently overlooked. Unloved by his parents, constantly dismissed by his brothers, he endured disdain, mistreatment, and harm from Hye-sun.
Hye-sun was once sobbing and whining to her eldest brother, Choi jun-ho that since his leg broke, he could not play basketball. She realized how excellent Taehyung was at basketball and how much the school students used to praise and complimented his talent. One day, Tae got into an accident and broke both of his legs. He was able to stand up, but he could not play basketball again. On rainy days, his legs would hurt terribly.
Hye-sun moaned to her second elder brother, Sang-bum about how little she looked like her family members. Outsiders said that she was not the heir of the Choi family, but Taehyung was. One day, Taehyung was locked in the restroom by his classmates. Someone poured a bottle of acid onto his face and it disfigured him permanently. Hye-sun told Choi dong-yeon enviously that Tae was skilled in drawing,, and playing musical instruments. She was jealous of his brother’s hands. One day, Taehyung was kidnapped and his hands were crippled, resulting in fractures in his arms. From that day onwards, he could never draw or play any instruments again.
Taehyung reassured himself that those incidents were just coincidences.
However, when he was diagnosed with leukemia, his family informed him that bone marrow match tests yielded no suitable donors. They urged him not to give up on this situation and promised that they will keep searching for the donors. Weakened by illness, Taehyung lay in bed as life slipped away day by day. During Hye-sun's visit, she revealed bone marrow match reports showing all three brothers as suitable donors. Shockingly, none were willing to save him.
Hye-sun disclosed that the misfortunes with his legs, hands, and face weren't accidents but a plot orchestrated by herself.
In the past, taehyung harbored a strong desire to harm Hye-sun and every member of the Choi family.
However, being sick and on the brink of death, all he could do was watch his enemy lead a happy life. After dying in sorrow, regret, pain, loneliness, and misery, he realized he was living within a story titled "Lady Luck."
Hye-sun was the beloved female lead, adored by all. Her future looked promising; she was spoiled by her parents and brothers, with an affectionate and powerful fiancé. Everything was going well in her familial relationships, love life, and career, sailing toward the peak of her life. As for Taehyung, he was just a supporting character who complimented the female lead.

God made you like that, other people are better with you, deal with it, it’s not that hard to accept that someone may be more talented! Even if tae can play instruments, draw, play basketball, he doesn’t have the love of his family yet you do, you’re just too ungrateful to understand 😒
