Chapter 1 The Wrong Person

In No. 1 People's Hospital in H City

The rhythmic tapping of high heels on the ground resounded across the silent hallway as a beautiful woman appeared in the corridor. She walked with grace and poise.

"Isn't she Janice Tang, the eldest daughter of the Tang family? God, she is beautiful!" one of the people in the corridor cooed.

"Yes, indeed. She is one of the most famous women in H City. But what's the use of being beautiful or famous? Fate isn't kind to everyone!" another chimed in.

"Why do beautiful women always lead miserable lives? Sean Chu's accident has brought disgrace to the Tang family this time."

"I wonder what Mr. Tang was thinking. The Chu family has gone bankrupt, but he still let his granddaughter marry Sean Chu, who is a big loser!"

Although the Tang family didn't fall under the list of noble families, it still held a distinguished position in H City because of its wealth.

Janice ruled the hearts of young men. She was beautiful, intelligent, and most importantly, belonged to a rich family. Young men from the wealthiest families of H City were after her. They regarded her as a goddess.

However, to everyone's utter dismay, the Tang family suddenly announced Janice's wedding with Sean two years ago.

The two had been engaged since they were little kids.

Their wedding had been one of the hottest topics of discussion in H City.

Janice continued to stride forward, ignoring the discussions around her.

In the past two years, people cooked up many different versions of the story. Each one seemed to come up with a different reason why they got married. Janice was tired of the relentless gossips and speculations.

Ignoring the inquisitive gazes of the people, she silently followed the nurse to the VIP ward.

A tall, handsome man was lying on the bed in the VIP ward. His eyes fluttered open, and he slowly sat up.

His angular face exuded arrogance and fortitude.

His shrewd eyes scanned the room for danger. Once sure he was safe, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Confusion crossed his face as his eyes raked the unfamiliar place again. He remembered falling into the sea. Waking up in a hospital bed seemed strange, for he had no memory of what happened after he fell into the sea.

"How unfortunate!" Murray Qin muttered to himself. There was a hint of coldness in his bright eyes.

For a top level martial artist like him, the past few months had been the worst time of his life.

The poison began slowly showing effect. He was forced to get married. Moreover, people were chasing after him, trying to hunt him down.

A smile stretched across his lips as he remembered those Death Guards on the cruise ship.

Murray twisted his joints, and was about to contact his men through his special communication device. He wanted to ask them to pick him up. Just then, the doorknob twisted with a click.

Sensing that someone was about to enter the room, Murray lay back on the bed.

"Ms. Tang, Mr. Chu is fine. He can go through the discharge procedures once he wakes up."

The nurse smiled sympathetically. Janice's face was taut with anger.

After the Chu family went bankrupt, Sean got married to Janice. The man caused trouble everywhere he went instead of being a good son-in-law to repay the Tang family's kindness. He had gone racing this time. However, the man eventually lost control; his car fell into the sea.

"Thank you." Janice closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She didn't want to open the door until she was fully calm.

Murray quickly rearranged his expression, making sure not to emit his murderous aura. Lying on the sickbed, the man looked weak and incompetent.

The door flew open.

A faint smell of perfume mingled with the stench of disinfectant wafted in the air. The next moment, a beautiful woman walked inside.

Murray's eyes lit up. His breath caught in his throat.

He had come across many beautiful women in the past. However, the one standing in front of him made his jaw drop. She was a breathtaking beauty.

The woman looked like she was in her mid-twenties. She was wearing a traditional, fashionable suit that clung to her slim body, accentuating her figure. Her long, curly chestnut hair swayed with every movement.

All her features were carved to perfection as if she were an angel on earth. Her milky skin was devoid of flaws-she was a natural beauty.

'Who is she? Gosh! She looks as pure as a lotus!' Murray thought to himself.

He had just laid his eyes on the woman but had already developed a liking towards her.

However, the anger in her eyes confused him.

"You... You're annoying." Janice's upbringing stopped her from saying anything rude, but she couldn't control her disappointment. The mere sight of him irked her.

The man looked at her with quizzical eyes. He blinked and examined her face, trying to figure out what was happening.

Murray racked his brains.

'Have I seen her before?' However, he concluded that he had never met her before because he wouldn't have forgotten such a beautiful woman in his life.

"Beauty, I don't understand what you're trying to say."

The best way to handle such a situation was to feign ignorance and play dumb.

"What did you just call me?" Janice scoffed. She clenched her fists, for she could barely hold back her anger and frustration.

"Sean Chu, are you pretending as if you've lost your memory?"

The frown on Murray's forehead deepened. He felt that the woman had mistaken him for someone else.

"I think there's a misunderstanding. My name is Murray Qin, not Sean Chu!"

"Misunderstanding?" Janice's anger reached its pinnacle. "Do you think that changing your name would change everything about you? I can recognize you even if you turn into ashes!

Do you still have a conscience?

Why are you always finding ways to create new problems? Has our Tang family ever treated you badly?"

The confusion on Murray's face infuriated her. Janice thought that the man was pretending not to understand what was going on.

She stomped toward the bed and pointed at his forehead.

"You went racing, didn't you? Do you think of yourself as the rich son of the Chu family? Get a grip, Sean! Do you know that my grandpa's health has worsened because of you?"

Murray's jaw tightened. He continued to stare at the woman, having no clue why she was screaming at him.

No one dared to point their fingers at him, but the woman had been shouting at Murray ever since she walked into the room.

"Our family has been paying for all your expenses-every penny you spend belongs to us. We cleaned the mess your family created. We owe you nothing!

You are disgusting, Sean! My grandpa got us married even after your family went bankrupt. He treated you as his own grandson. What else do you want, you ungrateful little shit?

Are you not happy married to me? Guess what? Even I'm not interested in this marriage.

I don't like you! But do you have any idea why I loathe you so much?

It's because you are a coward! You are worthless, useless, selfish, and what not! Have you ever cared about me and my family after we got married? You only think about yourself. Grandpa loves and respects you. But have you ever thought about his feelings?"

Murray's heart softened when he saw the pain and agitation in the woman's eyes. He felt sorry for her.

But he couldn't fathom why the beautiful woman regarded him as her husband.

'Do I look like her husband?'

"Beauty, I am sorry, but you have mistaken me for someone else. I'm not Sean Chu."

Although Janice was perfect for him in every way, he was not interested in her because she was already married.

"You still won't admit the truth, will you?" Janice's face reddened with rage. Her body began to tremble.

"Look at this. Are you going to say this isn't you?" She pulled out an ID card and threw it at his face.

Murray frowned and picked it up. His eyes widened when he saw the picture on the card.

'What the fuck!'

If not for the name "Sean Chu" on the ID card, Murray would have believed that it was him.

Sean was a replica of him. The two looked the same.
