The Only Daughter Is a Lie

#### Chapter 1

My mother always said the city was too expensive to raise two girls.

So, she dumped me at Grandma’s place in the countryside and kept my sister by her side.

Sixteen years later, I am the CEO of a multinational conglomerate, preparing to acquire my sister’s company.

On the due diligence report, her profile reads: "Only child. Loving parents. Wealthy family."

It turns out, I was never considered part of that family.

During the summer when I was eight, I finally figured something out.

My mother wasn’t broke. She just didn’t want to spend a single dime on me.
