Chapter 9

Author: Heisen Steele
As soon as she saw me from a distance, Brenda's face twisted with hatred. She stormed over, shouting, "Claire Sinclair! Bet you didn't think I'd get out so fast, huh?

"Not only am I free, but my father is coming to personally support me at the donation ceremony today. You? You're just a pathetic wannabe, trying to steal my identity. Go to hell!"

I pretended to shrink back, my hands flying up like I was scared.

"Brenda, how did you get out so fast? The cops found dozens of gold bars hidden in

  • Stealing My Life? Dream On!   Chapter 11

    The two strangers burst into tears, embracing Brenda tightly."My poor daughter!" the man cried. "We were so destitute back then. We had no choice but to sell you to the Sinclair family's maid."The woman sobbed. "We never imagined she bought you because her own child had died—and she needed a tool to manipulate David!" she wailed. "But now we can finally be together again, our precious daughter..."Brenda stood frozen.David was even more shaken. He shoved the couple away and grabbed Brenda roughly, his fury boiling over."You lying filth!" he roared, his grip like iron. "Your mom killed my real child and tricked me for years!"If it weren't for you and your mom, I wouldn't have risked everything to destroy Elena and Claire. Now I've lost everything—and you're going to pay with your lives!"He suddenly threw Brenda to the ground, his hands wrapping tightly around her neck.Brenda's biological parents shrieked, throwing themselves at David, clawing at his arms and face to pry h

    I smiled. "Simple. I'll take back everything you and your mom stole from my family—and the shares David stole from my mom."The crowd exploded into laughter."She's still bluffing? Claire's delusional!""Having her in our class is embarrassing. Can someone just get rid of her already?"The mocking buzz filled the auditorium, but I didn't flinch. On stage, David's expression darkened."You ungrateful brat!" he roared. "How dare you spout such nonsense!"I disown you from the Sinclair family right now! I'll cut off every penny of support and make sure you're expelled this instant!"His words were still echoing when the auditorium doors flew open with a thunderous kick.In walked my mother, Elena Lambert, flanked by a swarm of bodyguards. Her presence radiated authority.The principal, who had been conveniently quiet until now, stepped forward, his expression pinched with disapproval."Ma'am, this is a formal event. Please refrain from causing a disruption."Mom smiled faintly,

    As soon as she saw me from a distance, Brenda's face twisted with hatred. She stormed over, shouting, "Claire Sinclair! Bet you didn't think I'd get out so fast, huh?"Not only am I free, but my father is coming to personally support me at the donation ceremony today. You? You're just a pathetic wannabe, trying to steal my identity. Go to hell!"I pretended to shrink back, my hands flying up like I was scared."Brenda, how did you get out so fast? The cops found dozens of gold bars hidden in your room! You had to have stolen those from my family!"Her laugh rang out."Claire, you still think you're some big-shot heiress? Please."Let me spell it out for you—the Sinclair family's world is mine now. From this moment on, there's no Claire Sinclair. There's only Brenda Sinclair."I gasped."Are you delusional? You're Brenda Bart. You're nothing but a maid's daughter. Stop dreaming about things that will never belong to you!"Her laughter grew louder. "Fool. There's so much you don

    At my signal, my classmates pounced on Brenda like vultures."'Your phone'? Please! Everything you own was bought with Sinclair family money!""Do you even know what shame is? You broke her phone—you should be the one paying up!""We all saw it! You insulted the real Sinclair heiress, smashed her stuff, and now you're playing innocent? Give it a rest!"Brenda's breaths turned shallow and ragged. Meanwhile, I casually dialed a number on her phone, smirking as I pressed it to my ear."It's just borrowing," I said, loud enough for everyone to hear. "Relax. I'll give it back soon."When the call connected, I stepped out of the mob, mimicking Brenda's whiny, nasal tone."Dad," I said sweetly.A few minutes later, I handed the phone back to Brenda. Before she could even check it, I turned to the officers."This theft involves serious money. I trust you'll handle the suspects properly—no phone calls, no outside help."The officers didn't hesitate, confiscating both Brenda's and Robe

    Without a second thought, she let the phone drop to the ground and stomped on it, her heel crunching into the screen over and over.Then she leaned in close. "From the moment you set that dog on me, your fate was sealed, Claire. The Sinclair family heiress? That title belongs to me now. Always has, always will."She stepped back, a smug smile plastered across her face, like she was waiting for me to grovel or break.Before I could even get a word out, the wail of sirens blared from the school gates.Straightening my back, I met her gaze with the same smug look she had just given me."That's too bad, Brenda. The Sinclair family won't acknowledge a thieving maid's daughter as an heiress. And Robert? You're coming too."They both froze, stunned by the sudden turn of events.The look on their faces? Priceless. I'd been waiting for this moment ever since I caught wind of David's plan to donate a school building in Brenda's name. Déjà vu from my past life. Not this time. I'd already c

    Mr. Moore froze, like his brain needed a reboot.Then, from across the room, a voice called out:"Miss Brenda! We've been waiting forever. What's taking you so long?"Brenda lit up instantly."Robert! Finally! Claire—this insufferable servant—has been pestering me nonstop with her nonsense. Lucky you're here, or I don't know how I'd explain myself!"Robert's gaze locked onto me, a smug grin spreading across his face."Claire," he said, "Miss Brenda's father sent me to oversee the donation. Why are you interfering? Don't you want Miss Brenda to contribute to the school?"The crowd didn't waste a second piling on."Is Claire serious right now? Brenda's butler is right here, and she's still running her mouth?""She's probably jealous. Can't handle how perfect Brenda's life is, so she's spiraling.""Claire, just stop. If you tick Brenda off, we're gonna lose the new school building!"I tuned them out, fixing Robert with a glare."Oh, I see what's going on," I said. "So, after m

    A flicker of malice flashed in David's eyes, but he quickly smoothed it over with a fake calm. "Elena, listen—let me explain..."Mom's face hardened as she pulled me close. "Sweetheart, let Mommy handle this. You head to school."I handed Mom Rambo's leash and nodded. Just then, our driver pulled

    David's focus was glued to Brenda, so he was unaware of what I was doing. The second he saw her "unconscious" act, he stormed over and slapped me so hard my head snapped to the side. "You ungrateful brat! Brenda's always treated you like a sister, and this is how you repay her?"Just wait. When I

    The same classmates who'd been whispering about me two minutes ago now looked like they'd seen a ghost, scattering without a second glance at Brenda.Robert snapped out of his daze and shoved me, yelling, "Are you insane? That's Miss Brenda and her mom! How could you—"Before he could finish, I sl

    The second Rambo strutted in, the whole room froze. Not a peep from the crowd.I flicked a look at Robert, the butler, and jerked my chin at the door. He got the hint and opened it. With a little smirk, I let the iron chain slide through my fingers. "Told you before—this isn't your playground. Scra
