318 Chapter 317
Keera’s diary wasn’t filled with many entries.
Each sentence was loaded with copious amounts of information.
Keira started from the first page, dating back ten years
ago.
“With how foolish I must have seemed, I must have been abandoned by them, right? Actually, living here peacefully with my foster parents, far away from their terrifying world, is quite nice, isn’t it?”
Then, seven years ago.
“Today, I went to Oceanion for a trip and saw a girl working her way through school who looked exactly like me. Her name is Keira, my biological younger sister. So, they aren’t my biological parents after all, no wonder they abandoned me so easily when they saw I
was of no use…”
And then from five years ago.
“I finally uncovered the truth. It turns out that Mom had escaped from them… I can’t let them discover my

sister and mom. They’ll kill my sister and take Mom away!”
When Keira read this, she felt a chill run down her
spine.
Her mother was taken away, and the “younger sister” indeed was killed!
She gradually sat up straight, her facial expression turning solemn and tense.
It continued with an entry from three years ago.
“It turns out they never truly gave up on me, still issuing me their first command. How ridiculous! They want me to use the most important person in my life…”
Reading this, Keira thought of what Mary had once
said.
“Keera, didn’t you say you couldn’t even complete their first task? You said the first task involved someone
very important to you, so you refused… The most important person in your life must be Howard because it’s definitely not me.”
Mary’s shy and jealous voice seemed to linger in Keira’s ears, but in the next moment, she saw the

contents of Keera’s diary.
“…How could I possibly use Mary? She has been my only friend since childhood! I would rather never contact her again than drag her into this mess!”
Keira was stunned.
For some reason, there were tears in her eyes.
Ever since she disguised herself as Keera, she always felt that Keera was very unfair to Mary, thinking that Keera was so infatuated that she blocked her best
friend for a guy…
But that wasn’t true!
Keera had never betrayed her friendship with Mary.
A warm surge rose in her heart, and she gripped the diary a bit more tightly.
Thinking of that sister she had only met once, and the tenderness and timidity in her eyes when she had seen
her…
It turns out her sister had such resilience in her bones!
Keira closed her eyes, pushing back the tears, before continuing to read.

The diary entry from three years ago.
“I know Howard is using me, and his feelings aren’t sincere, but only by choosing him would they really think my weakness is incurable, right? Only this way can I truly escape from them… Being weak and useless has always been my camouflage; if I want a peaceful life, I cannot show any competence…”
Keera’s marriage to Howard, was it all just a front?
There was never any infatuation…
Keira continued reading and reached the diary from
two years ago.
“I couldn’t help myself and went to Oceanion today, and I saw my sister again. Although her life is hard and she hasn’t recognized our mother, at least she’s safe, isn’t she? I just want my sister to live well, so I impersonated her and helped her get married to Lewis Horton. With the protection of the Horton family, even if one day my identity is revealed, she would have the means to fight back.”
Then, a year ago, something must have happened to Keera, as the notes in the diary were very sloppy, written in a state of extreme fear.

“I was wrong. My knowledge of them was too superficial… They are everywhere! They are inescapable! Sooner or later, they’ll find my sister; I don’t know if the Horton family’s power can protect her… I won’t go to Oceanion again; I can’t drag my sister and mother into this!”
And then, from six months ago.
“I feel so sad. They made me complete another task, and only after finishing the first task will they issue the second one. I don’t want life to be like clearing levels in a game, overcoming one after another, just to become one of them in the end to return to their ranks. I don’t want to drag my best friend into this and to let Amy experience the life I’ve lived from childho I should be a loser! Therefore, I pushed away my only friend and blocked all her means of contact, somethin I should have done four years ago when they asked me to use her. Mary, do you hate me? Will you forget me?”
Then, from two months ago.
“Sister, do not get divorced! Do not get divorced!”

There wasn’t much content in the diary.
Just by looking at these things, Keira couldn’t speculate what exactly Keera had gone through, but
she still understood that all of Keera’s cowardice was a disguise.
She was trying hard to protect everyone with her frail body.
If it weren’t for her impending divorce from Lewis, Keera might not have gone to Oceanion to find her, wouldn’t have attracted those people’s attention, and their mother wouldn’t have been taken away…
Keira clenched the diary tightly.
Who exactly were they, and what exactly were they doing? Why did they send Keera here…
She had found a way to draw their attention, to have
them come to her – that was to break Keera’s
cowardice!
Show them that Keera existed, that Keera was no longer a pawn…
Then she could trace back the clues and rescue her mother.

Keira narrowed her eyes, tapping her fingers lightly on the tabletop. After a while, she locked the diary in the drawer and fell into deep thought.
After an uncertain amount of time, there was a knocking at the door.
She turned her head and saw Lewis standing there; looking at her with a profound gaze.
He was always of few words and now, sensing something off about her mood, he walked over and
asked in a low voice, “Isn’t it time to pick up Amy from school?”
Keira glanced at the time, and without realizing it, it was already four in the afternoon.
She stood up. “Okay, let’s go!
For now, her guilt toward her sister could only be made up for through Amy.
Lewis changed into casual sportswear, which made him look completely different from his usual business suits. He drove the car, and soon he and Keira arrived at the daycare.
Amy was only two years old and was attending an

early education class.
Normally, school ended at half past four, but after all the two-year-olds were picked up by their parents, Amy was nowhere to be seen.
As Keira was wondering, Amy came out crying, pushed by a teacher.
The teacher said impatiently, “Hurry up!”
Amy trembled and continued to cry silently.
Seeing this, Keira’s anger surged up instantly.
The teacher, upon seeing Keira, didn’t show any guilt; instead, she stated with a dark expression. “You’re Amy’s parent, right? Take your child home now, and don’t send her back tomorrow! She has been expelled from the school!”
