Synopsis
Jerry Miller was betrayed and murdered by the very family he trusted in his previous life. But fate gives him a second chance. He opens his eyes to the very day his four sisters, his adopted brother, and even his beloved girlfriend, Lele Sen, falsely accuse him of sexual assault. Their plan is ruthless — destroy his reputation, force him into submission, and seize control of his billions in assets. But this time… Jerry is not the same man. Instead of begging for forgiveness, he cuts every tie without hesitation. He expels every member of the Miller family from his empire, dismantles their power, and walks away from the chains of blood relations. From the shadows, he begins to build his own force — raising underground connections, forging alliances with powerful elites, and stepping into a world far more dangerous than before. With cold intelligence and unshakable resolve, Jerry rises from humiliation and betrayal to rebuild his empire stronger than ever.

Chapter 1 :The Betrayal and Rebirth of Jerry

"You beast! What have you done?" A sudden scream tore through the room.

Jerry Miller was violently dragged from his sleep, immediately assaulted by four enraged, elegantly dressed women who rained down punches and kicks. 

On the bed lay a stunningly beautiful young girl, disheveled and sobbing.

The frantic attackers were his own four older sisters. The girl on the bed, named Lele Sen, was the girlfriend of Jacob Miller, the family's adopted son.

[ Biological Son = Jerry Miller]

[Adopted Son = Jacob Miller]

"Brother Jerry, I always treated you like a brother. How could you take advantage of me being drunk and force me to sleep with you?" Lele cried out in apparent despair.

 "Bastard! How could our Miller Family have a beast like you!" The eldest sister delivered a sharp slap across Jerry's face.

"I wish I could beat you to death," the second sister spat, picking up a water bottle and smashing it against him, drenching him completely.

The third sister angrily stated, "Jacob is such a good, respectful boy. How could you lay a hand on his girlfriend?"

The fourth sister, her voice trembling, slapped him again. "Call the police, let them arrest this animal, and let him rot in jail for the rest of his life."

Enduring the stinging pain, Jerry looked at the scene, and a flood of memories returned. 

He had been murdered by this very group—his sisters and his parents—only to be reborn.

He instantly realized this entire situation was a meticulously planned scheme by Jacob and Lele. Lele was pregnant, and Jacob, a moderately famous celebrity, couldn't risk a scandal by marrying her. Their plan was to fake a scene of Jerry drunkenly forcing himself on Lele, coerce a confession, force a marriage with Jerry to legitimize the child, and then easily seize his billions in assets through a future divorce.

In his previous life, he had been fooled, signing the humiliating marriage contract just to avoid prison.

"What are you waiting for? Kneel down and kowtow to Jacob to apologize." The eldest sister tried to forcibly push Jerry's head down.

Jerry violently flung her hand away, breaking free, and glared at his sisters—a stark contrast to his past meekness. 

His sisters were stunned. Jerry, who had always meekly submitted to their abuse, dared to resist?

Jacob, his eyes welling up, stepped forward. "Brother, I always thought you were my good brother, but how could you do this to me, to Lele? If you liked Lele, I would have given her to you, or even convinced her to have a relationship with you. You didn't need to force her like this."

His words only fueled the sister's fury.

 "Did you hear that? Jacob is so kind! How could you bully him?"

 "He's a beast! Laying a hand on his own brother's girlfriend." 

"Look how much Jacob cares about you. What about you?"

A bitter laugh escaped Jerry. The "kind-hearted little brother Jacob" they adored was the man who would later orchestrate the destruction of the entire Miller Family and treat his own sisters as mere playthings.

"You still have the nerve to laugh?" The eldest sister raised her hand to strike again.

Jerry awkwardly dodged the blow, fixing his gaze on Jacob. "You guys have a brilliant plan. Do you really think I'm brain-dead?"

A flicker of panic crossed Jacob and Lele's faces. Has Jerry figured it out?

Lele screamed, "What are you trying to deny? You forced yourself on me last night while I was drunk!"

"Brother, I only persuaded Lele not to call the police out of consideration for family ties," Jacob said with a look of feigned grief. 

"If you keep arguing, I'm afraid Lele will call the police and have you arrested. You'd be sentenced to at least ten years. Just admit it obediently."

Jerry looked at him coldly, knowing that Jacob had already activated a voice recorder and a confession would be solid evidence. He pressed his temples, suppressing his rage, and replied with a chilling finality, "Then call the police!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Has Jerry gone mad?

They actually offered to call the police!

If this charge is proven true, he could go to jail.

Jacob and Lele exchanged a glance, and became even more flustered. Why didn't Jerry follow their plan? He actually took the initiative to call the police. If you call the police, these verbal statements alone are hardly evidence.

"Brother, I want to give you one last chance." Jacob gritted his teeth and said with a sorrowful expression, "As long as you obediently admit it and agree to compensate Lele, I don't want to watch you go to jail."

Jerry couldn't help but laugh at his affected and pretentious manner.

But in his previous life, he really thought he was doing it for his own good.

He spoke more forcefully: "I absolutely did not force Lele. You can have the police officer come over and extract DNA from her body or from the bed."

"If this is found guilty, I will openly accept legal judgment."

"Or"

"If someone is trying to frame me, hehe, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Upon hearing this, the older sisters were furious, thinking that Jerry was refusing to admit his mistake.

Lele and Jacob were in a panic. 

Jerry understood why they were panicking. Because they took advantage of his drunkenness and did something extremely despicable in front of him.

There is definitely Jacob's DNA on the bed; a simple check will expose the truth.

"Then call the police and send this beast to jail!" the older sister screamed.

"W-wait, wait a minute..." Jacob hurriedly stopped him.

 "After all, Jerry is my brother, I can't be so cruel."

As the group discussed this, Jerry looked at the group of people who were acting like clowns and turned to leave.

He has more important things to do!

Ignoring the screams of the other women, she left the hotel. He arrived in front of a tall building in the city center.

'This is the headquarters of JM Group, a company with a market value of tens of billions, which I founded myself.'

[A/N: JM Group = Jerry Miller's Group]

Having been an orphan, he built the JM Group on his own. Later, his biological parents came to his door. Having never experienced family affection, he gave his family the best he had.

Money, Social Status, Power!

But they took it all for granted, only listened to Jacob, and were extremely indifferent to him, as if he were just a tool for their family to make money.

'Back then, out of pity, I compromised and gave up my shares and assets, hoping they would care about me too.'

But even after giving everything—the company, shares, all assets—to his family, he was still forced to…

Signed various high-interest loan agreements.

By the time he realized what was happening, it was too late. Burdened with enormous debt, he could only end his life by jumping off a building in despair.

As he entered the building, the employees saw him, but none of them greeted him.

Because these are all members of the Miller Family, they don't even know what the chairman looks like, they only recognize the Miller Family's daughters(His Sisters).

Many company veterans initially spoke up for Jerry, but Jerry ignored them and allowed them to be bullied by the Miller Family, eventually leading to their resignation.

Jerry couldn't help but clench his fists.

The company he founded had become the Miller Family's backyard.

He pushed open his office door, and what came into view was a woman dressed in a well-fitting business suit, with long legs in black stockings under her short skirt.

She was his secretary, Rose Paper.

'She has been with me since I was just a small business owner, and helped me build the huge JM Group. She is my most trusted comrade-in-arms.'

But now her gaze towards him is filled with indifference.

"I have drafted the equity transfer agreement as you requested." Rose's beautiful face was icy as she sat in her boss's chair.

 "As long as you sign it, ten percent of the shares will be given to Jacob, free of charge."

"You are truly a philanthropist, Mr. Miller."

She took out another document, her eyes filled with endless sorrow: "President Miller, this is my resignation letter. I've had enough."

After saying that, she got up and left.

Jerry felt a pang of heartache; he had been so foolish to have hurt Rose so deeply. She clearly loves him deeply, but he only has eyes for others.

In his previous life, when she resigned, he angrily accused her of being disloyal and told her to get out.

But after he was seriously ill and hospitalized, only she took care of him and paid his bills.

If he wants to turn his life around, the only person he can trust and rely on is her.
