Briony Kensington endured five years in a marriage built on lies. Even when she learned Stewart Wentworth kept a lover, she stayed—until the day she discovered the child she’d raised as her own was his bastard with the other woman.
The final insult came when the mistress arrived at her door, waving divorce papers Stewart himself had drafted. That same day, Briony's pregnancy test turned positive.
Her response was merciless: She discarded the cheating husband, returned the affair baby to its mother and walked away with nothing but her pride.
Now the world watches as the woman they underestimated transforms into a financial force no one can touch. Former critics grovel, the elite beg for her attention, and even the manipulated child comes crawling back.
Now, the woman they’d underestimated is rising—richer, sharper, untouchable.
Until a drunken midnight call shatters her newfound peace: "Briony… You can’t marry him." Stewart's voice slurs through the phone. "I never signed the divorce papers."
