Group Beloved: Her Path of Revenge

I took over the real identity of Jennifer Thompson, who came from a wealthy family.

When Jennifer was fifteen, she was found by the Thompson family.

The Thompson family cared deeply about her to make up for what they owed her.

My brother, Charlie Thompson, defended her indiscriminately, and my childhood sweetheart, Zachary, who I had known since I was a little girl, was extremely angry with me for her.

"Aurora, you've been a rich girl in the Thompson family for over ten years in Jennifer's place, so you owed it to her!"

Even my biological mother tried to help me atone for my sins.

I was just a child who was recognized by mistake back then, so I didn't understand what was wrong with me.

Even though I was kicked out of the Thompson family, the lead characters were still suppressing me at every turn.

On the day the result of my entrance examination came out, Jennifer bragged in front of me.

Jennifer admitted that she was the female lead character of this romantic novel, and I was the evil female supporting character who facilitated their romantic relationship.

"What's the point of you being a good student? I'm one of the lead characters, and you still have a worse education background than me."

That was ridiculous.

I never studied for grades or educational background, and the knowledge in my mind was worth the most.

Later, as I was the female supporting character, the end of the fictional world came.

I wanted to see what would happen to the stupid lead characters who spend their days indulging in love triangles.

What should I do?

——

On my fifteenth birthday, I realized the plot.

My parents, my brother, and everything I owned didn't belong to me.

Soon after, Jennifer was found by the Thompson family, and she got all the attention she needed.

On the contrary, I was like falling into the hell beyond redemption, and I needed to act as a tool to facilitate their romantic relationship if necessary.

"Aurora, be careful!"

I was pushed forcefully from behind to avoid the display board that were blown over by the high winds.

The girl who pushed me dodged and got hit by the display board.

She would rather get hurt herself to protect others, and she was so kind.

"Jennifer!" Charlie's tone was rarely nervous.

Charlie ran to Jennifer in panic. "Why are you so stupid?"

He carefully carried Jennifer up and took her to the hospital.

Everyone could tell Charlie had a crush on that girl, Jennifer.

My childhood sweetheart, Zachary stared intently at the two of them, pursing his lips.

"Aurora, Jennifer was hit to protect you, so I need to go to the hospital."

The arrogant rich man refused to admit that he was worried about the female lead character, so he used me as an excuse.

Saying that, Zachary caught up with them without looking back.

The students who were watching the fun around us dispersed.

I gritted my teeth and stood up from the ground, taking a deep breath in pain.

I looked down and saw that my knee was bloody and falling off with a layer of skin mixed with dust.

With the blessing of the female lead character, I limped into the infirmary.

Charlie returned home from the hospital with a copy of the examination report.

Jennifer was Charlie's biological sister, the biological daughter of the Thompson family.

Unlike me, who was introverted, Jennifer was bright and popular.

"Mom and Dad, I finally found you!"

Jennifer's adoptive mother was my biological mother, Carolyn Murphy, who ran a small shop.

She cried, "I had a hard time outside. I went to school during the day, and I had to help with the accounts and stocking up every night after homework..."

Jennifer's parents from the Thompson family were concerned when they heard that she had to help with manual labor at home at such a young age.

"Jennifer, you've suffered a lot over the years."

My parents turned to look at me.

I didn't look anything like them, and we didn't get along very well.

As their fake daughter, I took over their daughter's time to enjoy being a rich girl for over a decade. Any family would be upset about that.

No sooner had they kicked me out than I had packed my luggage.

No one cared about me at all.

As I walked out the door of the Thompson family, my brother, Charlie, was immersed in a great sadness because the girl he loved became his sister.

That feeling of being disappointed in a love affair was quite obvious.

Charlie was six feet tall, looked bright and handsome. He was the popular captain of the basketball team at school, his family was powerful and wealthy, and he was the dreaming man for numerous teenage girls.

Unfortunately, he was just the male supporting character in the novel.

He sat on the stairs holding his forehead helplessly, showing off his perfect jawline. "Jennifer, what am I going to do with you?"

The Thompson family had a big ceremony for Jennifer, and they announced to the public who she truly was.

Jennifer changed her last name to Thompson while I changed my name to Aurora Murphy.

I was calm about it with nothing rippling inside.

Since the day I learned the truth, I knew that this was a plot that was bound to happen.

The world we were living in was like a novel, and Jennifer was the female lead character in this romantic novel.

This was the plot where she got her identity back.

I didn't covet Jennifer's blessed life, and I unintentionally stole it from her.

Even though I was the evil female supporting character, I still had to live my life.

I had only brought my personal items and a few school uniforms from the Thompson family.

My suitcase was moving with a stumble on the road full of stones, as if making a wailing sound.

In front of the small shop of the Murphy family stood a woman in her thirties or forties.

Unlike Jennifer's mother, Sharon Thompson, who was wellpreserved, Carolyn had a lot of wrinkles at the corners of her eyes from the exposure to the weather.

"Aurora, you're back." She looked at me with tears in her eyes.

"Your room is upstairs, and I don't know if I can get used to living here."

She rubbed her hands, trying to be close to me, but I didn't know how to greet her.

"Well, thank you." I pulled my suitcase, passed her, and went straight up the stairs.

Carolyn was a nice woman who was overly kind.

Jennifer was ungrateful.

She hooked up with a rich man and instantly left Carolyn behind.

Carolyn still loved Jennifer as her daughter for the sake of Jennifer being her daughter for more than ten years, and even I was inferior as her biological daughter.

In the original story, Carolyn took Jennifer's side, and she ended up going out of her way to cut ties with me.

In the end, she said I was to blame as the evil female supporting character.

How could I let go of my grudge and get close to her?

Knowledge was the best way to change your destiny.

I studied hard in school and didn't want to get involved with the lead characters.

It was only when Jennifer purposely made trouble a few times that I had no choice but to follow the plot.

My childhood sweetheart, who I grew up with, and my brother, who used to love me, grew to favor Jennifer.

But what was that to do with me?

When I graduated, I got into a university with excellent entrance examination results.

However, the lead characters spend their days immersed in the love triangle.

A special tutoring course worth thousands of dollars didn't help them either.

I heard that the three of them were going abroad together.

Maybe they thought I couldn't affect them anymore, and Jennifer admitted that she was the female lead character.

She made a point of bragging about it in front of me.

"I know you have a crush on Zachary, but he seems to prefer me.

"What's the point of you studying better? My family applied to prestigious schools abroad for us, and it's easy for me to apply to graduate school at top universities back home.

"You seem to have a hard time applying to graduate school at home, and you'll still have a lower education background than me in the end."

Looking at Jennifer, who was condescending in front of me, I felt ridiculous.

I never studied for grades or educational background, and I thought the knowledge in my brain was worth the most.

As Jennifer was busy developing a relationship with the male lead character and the male supporting character, the difference between us was created long ago.

"You're just standing on the shoulders of the Thompson family today.

"You were born so lucky, and all I have is what I've worked hard for."

Carolyn didn't have any money to hire a tutor for me.

I would get up at five in the morning to help her stock up before going to school.

At night, after our accounting, I would be in my room upstairs.

I was grateful.

Carolyn raised me by her efforts and gave me a cozy and comfortable space to study.

I was in the sea of knowledge, temporarily forgetting the hardships of real life.

The streetlight and moonlight in front of the window formed a delightful contrast.

My four years of high school had just gone by with the lead characters bullying me over and over again.

Jennifer suddenly looked at me with a wary look in her eyes.

"Did you work hard for it? Do you want to steal from me? You are daydreaming.

"I'm the lead character, and do you want to change your destiny against all odds as a supporting character? What is not yours will never belong to you!"

She took a step back and smiled sinisterly, "Don't you love Zachary? Would you like to see him hate you forever?"

In the original story, I went crazy with jealousy and pushed Jennifer down the stairs.

I ruined my life like that.

Jennifer fell down the stairs on her back in order to slander me.

She was a lunatic

Wasn't she afraid she was going to make a fool of herself? Or would she fall and get braindamaged?

I panicked and reached out for her.

"I stopped loving Zachary a long time ago!

"Why did you go out of your way for a man? Are you insane?"

I had just grabbed Jennifer when the ground suddenly shook violently.

The sun suddenly rose in the distance with a thunderous boom.

A mechanical voice appeared in my mind.

[The female supporting character's behavior was out of the plot, causing the original world to collapse.]

Jennifer was so attracted to this huge change that she forgot to pull my hair for a moment.

People on the street suddenly rioted and attacked each other indiscriminately.

It was like a zombie siege in a postapocalyptic world.

Charlie and Zachary rushed to find Jennifer.

"Jennifer, something special happened, and I didn't have time to explain it to you. There is the Safe Area in the east, and we should go there quickly!"

The Thompson family and the Davis family were rich and powerful, and they had found Safe Area so quickly.

I was about to slip away to join Carolyn.

Zachary, however, tugged on my arm and frowned tightly, "You should come with us."

I raised my eyebrows.

How could they be so kind to bring me along in such a critical situation?

In the outside world, nonplayer characters rioted in mass, and there was chaos everywhere.

Suddenly, many sights and buildings that didn't exist before appeared on the ground.

It seemed the two worlds merged into one.

I went through the tunnel entrance with the Safe Area behind me, and someone at the gate was registering information.

Those who could come here were characters who had a part in the story.

These characters included the lead characters and their parents as well as me and Carolyn.

There were also the school teachers and the dean.

They played an integral role in the plot.

For example, when Jennifer falsely accused me of disobeying her music festival schedule and disturbing the class, the class teacher determinedly kicked me out of the team.

As the class went to a group activity, I was left alone to clean the classroom.

In addition, Jennifer doused herself with water in the restroom.

She acted like a movie queen possessed.

"Aurora, do you think I want to steal the identity of the rich girl from the Thompson family from you? I'd rather give it up to you if I could!"

She meant that I had bullied her.

The dean pointed at my nose and scolded me angrily.

The dean angrily pointed to my nose and scolded me, "You have a bad character and a wicked heart!"

He canceled my title as the city's best student without a second thought.

Watching Jennifer get wet all over, her hair dripping with water, Charlie's eyes filled with tears as if he had a deep grudge against me.

"Our parents raised you for so many years for nothing, and you're so vicious. Sure enough, you don't belong to the Thompson family."

Zachary also protected Jennifer behind him worriedly.

The young man who had a crush on me had disgust for me in his eyes.

Zachary's tone was so indifferent that it stabbed at my heart like a sharp and icy blade. "Aurora, you disappoint me so much!"

I hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to say.

We grew up together since we were young, and we had a fifteenyear affection. Wouldn't he know in his mind what kind of person I was?

Forget it. I was also disappointed in him.

Zachary didn't know right from wrong, and he followed the established fictional plot step by step.

I just found it ridiculous.

As I came back to my senses, Zachary was staring at me indifferently.

Zachary was the most brilliant among the lead characters.

He said silently, "Aurora, you bear full responsibility for the destruction of the world now."

No wonder Jennifer was willing to confess to me.

It turned out the lead characters had known who she and I were for a long time.

Jennifer glared at me and chimed in, "Right. If you had followed the plot, our normal lives wouldn't have been disrupted at all.

"Why are you so shameless? You changed the direction of the entire world for your own selfish desires!"

Just as Jennifer finished speaking, countless eyes turned toward me.

Their eyes looked terrifying.

They were always like that.

They suppressed and exploited the female supporting characters in the name of justice, and they pretended that they were doing the lead characters a favor.

I sneered, "Why should I sacrifice myself for you guys?

"It's a nice try to sacrifice me for the sake of your happiness. How could you all be so shameless to say that?

"How about each of you come and thank me? I'll consider it."

Everyone looked furious at my rebuttal.

Charlie tried to blame me again with the fact that the Thompson family raised me for over ten years.

I glared at him and retorted, "The Thompson family did raise me for fifteen years, and my mom raised Jennifer for fifteen years, so we are completely done. You're not my brother, so who are you trying to accuse me?"

Anyway, I was the evil female supporting character, so I admitted what I was straight away.

I was retorting to them with satisfaction when Carolyn burst into tears beside me.

"I'm sorry, everyone."

She stood up and gave everyone a bow.

I hurriedly tugged on her sleeve to make her sit down. "Mom, what are you doing?"

I was so afraid of a weak teammate like Carolyn.

To be honest, I didn't want to recognize her as my mother anymore.

People wanted her daughter dead, but she actively apologized to them.

This was my life. Even if she was my mother, she wasn't in a position to decide for me.

I just wanted to live well, and I didn't mess with anyone.

The farce wasn't over yet.

In the depths of the tunnel, a tall man slowly walked out.

He looked handsome, noble, arrogant, and as proud as an iceberg.

He walked over to me with steady steps.

"Aurora Murphy," the man looked at my information sheet and read my name word for word.

"You ranked first in science on your entrance examination at Jerrold International High School, didn't you?"

"That's me."

The man glanced at me and smiled thoughtfully.
