Two Worlds: the Real Me and the Illusory Novel

As we slept through the night, a loud crash came from outside. Just as I opened my eyes, I saw a drunken man standing by the bed.

Before I could scream in fear, Eirene whispered, "Dad... Dad."

Oh, so this wretched man was Eirene's abusive, scumbag father, David White.

David muttered incoherently, "You, you worthless thing! Why are you here? Get out of here!"

Now I knew where Zoltan learned those foul language from.

I sneered. "Who are you talking about?"

David got angry. He subconsciously pulled out his belt and wanted to hit someone.

It was a shame because, in the real world, I was also a boxer as an amateur.

I hit him back, kicking him in the legs and chest, causing him to cry out in pain.

At first, he was still cursing, but in the end, he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.

Eirene widened her eyes and stared at me in disbelief.

Finally, I threw David into the toilet and returned with a smile, saying, "Go back to sleep now."

That night, as soon as I fell asleep, I heard Eirene seem to have a nightmare and shout in panic, "No, I don't want to donate my kidney! My baby... Boo-hoo!

Mom and Dad, please stop hitting me."

I quickly pushed her, and she woke up from her dream with fear on her face.

I asked patiently, "What's the matter?"

Eirene was silent for a moment and forced a smile.

"Mom, I'm fine."

The next day, I got up early to make breakfast, and Eirene came out of the room with dark circles under her eyes.

I quickly invited her and Zoltan to come and have breakfast together.

She looked at me in surprise, her eyes filled with complexity, and quickly lowered her head to eat the oatmeal. Zoltan was still a little unhappy and picky about the food.

While Zoltan was still a junior high school kid, I planned to discipline and shape his character properly.

In the next few days, I demanded that he do housework and took the time to explain many concepts and principles to him in detail.

As for David, he had become much more obedient since he was beaten that day. He often started to stay out all night. Maybe he was afraid that I'd beat him again.

One day, when I was working, I received a call from Eirene's class teacher.

"Mrs. White, your daughter got into a fight with someone at school..."

Damn, I knew what plot this was!

I rushed to school, and just as I reached the office door, I heard a sharp female voice coming from inside.

"My child would never do something like that! It must be someone else's fault!"

As I entered the room, Eirene stood alone in the corner with her head bowed, and three or four girls were standing next to her. A middle-aged woman who seemed to be the mother of one of the girls was gesturing and saying something excitedly.

Upon seeing me, the homeroom teacher immediately exaggeratedly told me about the fights that occurred between Eirene and others during school, subtly implying that it was all her fault.

Looking at the bruises on Eirene's body and the provocative looks of the other four girls, I sneered and asked Eirene about the condition in a low voice.

She told me hesitantly that she had just been blocked at the corner of the stairs and beaten.

In the original plot, Eirene's background was not that simple. She was an heiress of a wealthy family who was maliciously switched. Her identity wouldn't be revealed until the end of the story after she married the male lead.

During her time at school, the fake heiress, Janet Quinn, had a sixth sense that made her dislike Eirene from the beginning. Janet continuously organized people to bully Eirene, while classmates turned a blind eye and teachers showed favoritism. Eirene's parents didn't care about her at all, and after receiving money from the other parents, they even turned around to educate her.
