‘Why did she not hit or laugh atif I'm not hallucinating? Instead, Heather kissedand provided shelter for me,” Ralph looked at the key and thought, ‘Is this another one of her tricks? Annie?’ At first, he thought it was a sweet nicknbetween them. “Heather” would becgentle and obedient within seconds if he called her Annie, but since the last two times did not work and she even beat him up, he no longer believed it.

‘Am | not a Russell? How can | not be my mother’s son?!” As long as he could remember, he lived with the Russells, called them his parents, and was the young master to the housekeepers.
He went to the best kindergarten, elementary school, and high school. While others struggled to find a job, Ralph was already working as a department manager in his family's company.
