Baffled— that's exactly how Park Yoori felt the moment she opened her eyes after that headache.

A peculiar feeling within her told her that she had traversed.

As for who she was before this was something she had no idea. She did not know what she was, other than the fact that her name was Park Yoori.

The only set of memories she had in her mind was that of the body she was currently in, who also went by the name of Park Yoori.

In her current situation, if she couldn't figure out that many of the things Park Yoori did not suit her, she would have thought that she was the woman herself.

As for how the original owner of the body was like, Park Yoori could only use one word— Psychopath.

To the outsider, she had the image of one of the most successful female CEO at quite a young age.

Aloof, she did not communicate or get along with those around her well, but when it came to business, she surpassed many of her peers.

Although many people wasn't fond of her cold and arrogant personality, few people dared to show it on the surface.

If Park Yoori did not know all the personal information about the woman, she would've admired her as well. After all, only a few could achieve what she did.

Growing up, the original owner of the body had quite a miserable childhood. As an illegitimate child— who was born out of the maid in their family— she did not have a pleasant time.

Her father, Park Seungkwan, did not care about any children, other than the one born legitimately, Park Yoochun.

His wife, Min Sooyeon, was a prideful woman, and hating the fact that her man cheated could only direct her hate towards Yoori since she couldn't touch Park Seungkwan.

Although such a mess was common in the circle of the wealthy, Sooyeon did not want her family to be gossiped about. That's why, gritting her teeth, she could only accept Yoori as her daughter.

As for Park Yoori's mother, she was dismissed by Sooyeon after a hefty sum of money. Without caring about her own child, she happily left.

Growing up, Yoori was tormented by everyone in the family, and at times, it was a wonder how she was able to live up to this age.

She was given a small room in the corner, which was worse than that of the maid, and with the label of weak health, she wasn't able to leave the house.

Only when some maid remembered or pitied will she be given something to eat. The only thing young Yoori held close to her was the small torn bunny stuff toy she found.

Her life until she was six went by hugging that dirty doll.

That's when, Park Yoochun noticed the doll. Yoochun did not pay her attention from childhood, but the doll in her hand made him notice her.

He merely saw her as some dirt, and when that doll fell in his line of sight, he hated how someone he regarded as trash trash held something of his— even if it was some ripped and dirty thrown away toy.

That day, he and his cousins bullied the girl and threw away the only thing she regarded as precious to her in the pond.

This made the girl break down, and without a second thought, not caring about the wounds in her body, she jumped into the pool.

Although the pool was shallow, taking in her malnourished and small figure, coupled with the fact that she wasn't she was able to swim, she drowned.

However, she did not die after that event and was rescued. Maybe it was then Park Seungkwan realized he had a daughter as well and decided to make her attend school.

No matter what, she was regarded as the daughter of the Park family, and this would only ruin the reputation.

The days in her school wasn't good neither was her time in the home. With all that struggling, she finally managed to reach the second year of middle school.

It was truly admirable for Yoori to be able to hold on for that long with all that she had to go through.

That's when, she met Bae Joonyoung.

Never did she except for her path to cross against someone like Joonyoung. He was considered to be the School Prince— the student all the girls had crush on and the teachers were proud of. Moreover, his looks were excellent.

Yoori did not even dare to look at someone like him.

He was a grade older than her, being at the same class as Park Yoochun, and it was common for them to not meet.

But during one event, when Yoori fainted after getting beaten up, he noticed her and carried her to the infirmary.

When she woke up, she saw him beside her and was taken aback by his dazzling figure. Smiling at her, with worry present in his eyes, he asked about her condition.

This was the first time Yoori was treated so gently, and she stuttered all her answers. The boy did not care about that and patted her head the entire time while seeming distressed.

It was fair to say that she couldn't resist herself from falling for him. But being self aware, she knew that someone as bright like him shouldn't be associated with a dirty person as herself.

However, after that, he did not ignore her and started to get close to her. Due to his influence, no one bullied her that intensely anymore.

Although Yoochun made the situation unbearable for her at home, she did not care much about it since she was able to spend time with her favorite senior.

Seeing how Joonyoung spent all the time with her at school and even after school, let her accompany him to watch him practice, she started to have hopes that maybe he felt the same way about her.

Just thinking about it was enough to make her giddy, but she did not dare to tell him about her feelings. That could potentially ruin everything between the two of them.

Things would have gone good for her until she mistakenly learned from someone that Joonyoung was going to give up the opportunity to go abroad due to her.

Of course, what had shaken her up most was that Yoochun was planning to go against Joonyoung. Yoochun was one of the scariest existence in her life back then, and knowing how he could be, she was scared for Joonyoung.

No matter how powerful Joonyoung was, in her mind, there was no way he would be able to save himself completely from Yoochun.

That was confirmed when she found a wound on Joonyoung's body and learned from someone that it was due to Yoochun.

That someone even blamed her and told her that it was because of her Joonyoung had to suffer through this, also mentioning the fact that Joonyoung had to stay here due to her.

If he hadn't been here, this wouldn't have happened.

Before due to her selfishness, she was happy that he decided to stay for her sake, but never in her wildest dreams could she bear for him to get hurt for her sake.

That's why, she cruelly broke her friendship with the man and did not go school for weeks, crying the entire time at home.

After finding out that Joonyoung had transferred away when she finally went to school, she was relieved even if her days went back to how things were before meeting Joonyoung.

This event did make her hate Yoochun to the extreme, and what fuelled it to the crazy limit when she eavesdropped on the Park Family one day to find out the only reason she was kept alive.

Apparently, Yoochun was born with a weak heart, and her heart matched his to a huge degree.

Following that, she could see how her treatment in the house was starting to slowly improve, and knowing the reason behind it, she lost her mind finally.

Taking the opportunity when Yoochun in her fragile state, she took advantage of the fact that the CCTV cameras in her house was facing malfunction in order to push him down the stairs.

This led him to die.

For her, this was just the start.

This led Sooyeon to go crazy due to grief and blame her for Yoochun's death although there was no evidence for it.

Throughout the entire time, Yoori maintained her timid outlook although she felt great excitement inside. She wanted more of this thrill.

Even if Seungkwan was sad for his son's death, his mourning did not last that long. Although Yoori wasn't someone he cared slightly for, she was his daughter at the end of the day.

Knowing that many people in the family was eyeing for his business due to this opportunity, he decided to train Yoori. He would rather do that than give his family business to someone else.

As for Sooyeon, he could only lock the woman in his house— with the excuse that she was facing serious mental illness due to the loss of her son— in order to prevent her from creating trouble outside.

Yoori did not disappoint. For her age, she was really bright and even went beyond the man's expectation at times. Seeing that, he was truly proud of her.

Of course, this did not mean Yoori was going to forgive the family. The obedient of hers was soon thrown away as soon as she was able to produce evidence against her father and overthrow him.

At the age of twenty six, she controlled the entire Park Group and did things in a frightening way. No one dared to question her abilities.

After seizing control of the business, the first person she tortured was Sooyeon, causing her to commit suicide two years later.

After that, she targeted all those who bullied her from the childhood and expanded her power. As for her father, she decided to give him mercy and keep him alive— of course, at this point, it would be better for him to die.

His entire body was paralyzed, and he was locked in one room. Because of the intense care given to him, he hadn't died until now.

As for Bae Joonyoung, he was her current object of affection although it would be proper to say that she was crazily obsessed with him.

She watched over him constantly and knew every single details of his life. Although his life started out bright, it started to decline when his mother had a car accident due to a shock after finding out his father cheated on her a long time ago and forced her to sign the divorce papers.

Joonyoung's mother was in the coma after that, and his father's business was inherited by the his father's new wife's child, Bae Hoseok.

Joonyoung hated the family and wanted to attack them. Afraid that Joonyoung will potentially harm him, Hoseok started to suppress him with all the power, not allowing him to succeed.

Moreover, Joonyoung's mother was in a coma, giving him more trouble. Due to worry for his mother, he could only choose to lie low.

As much as Yoori wanted to help him, her power wasn't that much at that time, and even after inheriting the family, she needed to clean up a lot of things.

The only thing she was able to do was provide Joonyoung with a stable job to keep him well fed and treat his mother, other than making sure that the hospital will be taking care of his mother well.

Of course, someone like Yoori wouldn't be able to be satisfied with only this much, and three years later, she was able to completely stabilise herself completely.

This is when her possessiveness for Joonyoung grown to a crazy amount, and the more she watched him, she wanted to have him.

What made her lose control was when she saw him interacting with the girl who was supposed to be his childhood sweetheart and receiving help for her.

In her mind, she clearly helped him more than that girl throughout these years and hated how he was grateful towards her for that small help.

She finally decided to reveal herself to him— not caring about all the inferiority complex she had towards him— and proposed a contract to him.

In return to him only playing piano for her personally any time she wants, she would provide all the treatment for his mother and send her abroad at all her cost.

He agreed to it.

Although it was angered her that he did not recognize her in the beginning, she remembered how both of them separated at middle school and decided it was for the best.

Until this much, everything was still fine.

Yoori and Joonyoung slowly got close over time, and she even started to romantically pursue him.

That's when, she learned of him meeting his childhood sweetheart, and this caused her to lose the control over her temper.

Following that, she had an argument with him, and this caused him to find out that she had been monitoring him throughout the entire time.

He was shocked to learn that, and the things between them became more intense. Afraid that things will go wrong and he will leave her after this, she simply locked him away in the house, giving him no chance to escape.

Certainly, the things that followed after this was crazier. The more he tried to rebel against her, she tied him up, drugged him, and even forced him against his will to sleep with her.

At the end, she took him with her to commit suicide.

Learning all these from her memory, she wanted to cry and bang her head against the table.

Yoori ran her hand through her hair and took in a deep breath. Currently, there was still a way to save everything from going in this trajectory.

Yesterday was the day she had her first big fight with Joonyoung and locked him in the house. It hasn't even been 24 hours until then.

She could just go home and unlock the door to let him leave. After that, she could still provide treatment for his mother, seeing how it did not cost her much.

Unlike the original owner, she did not need him to play piano for her, and both of them could go to their separate path.

Finding this plan to be quite suitable, the corner of her lips lifted upwards, and she clapped both of her hands together.

Thinking about it this way, she did not cross over to a bad character, and the timing was perfect. She did not have to go through the torment that the original owner did.

Moreover, she had limitless wealth to enjoy even if she decides to not work.

Deciding all that, she quickly wanted to go through it. Pushing her chair back, she stood up and wore her coat.

As for providing an explanation to Joonyoung, there was no need for that. It was him who was in her favour after all.

Currently, she did not have her memories, and even though her personality was different from the original owner, that did not reduce the influence it had on her characteristics.
