Chapter 0 Introduction

Guy Anderson is a 29-year-old billionaire and CEO of Anderson's Enterprise. He used to live a very happy and fulfilled life until his Legally wedded wife died a few minutes after giving birth to their first child.

Guy was devastated and very depressed but he knew he had to be strong for his daughter. He promised to take care very good care of her. Luna, his daughter, gave him a new reason to live.

Guy was able to move forward, live life again and take care of his daughter with the help of his Mom, Anna and sister, Silvia.

Guy's father died when he was 13 and since then, his mother has been the breadwinner of their family. Anna did her best to send Guy and Silvia to school till their masters level and now she's a proud mother of two successful children. Guy, who is three years older than Silvia is a successful businessman and Silvia is already a practising doctor.

Five Years Later, While Guy was doing some work in his office, He received a call from his daughter's PreSchool telling him his daughter had fainted. Luckily, the hospital she was taken to was where Silvia, his sister was working. Luna was quickly attended to but she ended up in a Coma.

Guy became depressed again. "What if his daughter never wakes up?" But his sister assured him that Luna will come around very soon.

Guy makes sure, he visits his daughter every morning at the hospital before going to work and every evening after work. He also brings along with him some of her bedtime stories to read to her.

To be honest, it saddens Guy to see his daughter that way. Luna is a very happy child. At the age of four, She's very smart and she also understands her mom is no more. She was still happy because she has her dad, her aunt and grandma. Hopefully, her dad will marry someone who will be a good mother to her and probably have some younger siblings as time goes on.

During the day while Guy is at work, Luna is always being visited by her grandma, Silvia and a very mysterious lady.

Emerald is the mysterious lady who was captured by Luna the first time she saw her. She believes Luna is still very young and innocent to be in this type of situation. Emerald is 23, she has no parents and is just an ordinary cleaner at the hospital Silvia works. Sometimes she had little food to eat and most times, she had nothing. Whatever money she had, She made sure she uses it for her rent. A one-room apartment, just to have somewhere to lay her head after the day's work.

The nurse who was appointed to take care of Luna was too lazy to do her job so she approached Emerald and promise to give her some amount of money at the end of every month if she takes care of Luna. Since then, Emerald has been taking care of Luna. She goes to Luna's room every day to clean her room, change her, comb her hair and do some other necessary things. She even sings to Luna and tells her stories of her life. Em found herself attached to the little girl.

To be honest, Emerald doubts it if Luna could hear her but she just feels connected to her and loves talking about herself to Luna. It's something Emerald looks forward to doing every day.

There was even a time Anna saw Emerald singing and making her grand daughter's hair at the same time. Anna was very impressed. She saw the love Emerald had in her eyes for her granddaughter and since then, they became friends.

Luna was always the reason for Guy's motivation to succeed. But since Luna's accident, He has become less focused. And now he just lost a great deal. A deal which could have provided his company with millions.

Guy blamed himself for all the bad things that have been happening to him and most importantly for losing the deal. If only he had put extra effort into it.

He was so angry and he did the only thing that came to his mind. To go to a club and get drunk. Guy ended up having a one night stand with a very beautiful lady. When he saw her in the club, he couldn't resist himself. The last time he had sex was with his deceased wife. That was because he swore not to have an affair with any other woman and besides, no other lady had captured his attention the way this one did. Seeing the beautiful lady in the club, He couldn't resist her and his drunken state did not help him either.

When he woke up the next morning, he saw that the lady was gone without any trace except with her beautiful face which can't stop popping up in Guy's mind.

I sat in the gray, airless room of the New York State Department of Corrections, my knuckles white as the Warden delivered the news. "Parole denied." My father, Howard Sterling, had forged new evidence of financial crimes to keep me behind bars. He walked into the room, smelling of expensive cologne, and tossed a black folder onto the steel table. It was a marriage contract for Lucas Kensington, a billionaire currently lying in a vegetative state in the ICU. "Sign it. You walk out today." I laughed at the idea of being sold to a "corpse" until Howard slid a grainy photo toward me. It showed a toddler with a crescent-moon birthmark—the son Howard told me had died in an incubator five years ago. He smiled and told me the boy's safety depended entirely on my cooperation. I was thrust into the Kensington estate, where the family treated me like a "drowned rat." They dressed me in mothball-scented rags and mocked my status, unaware that I was monitoring their every move. I watched the cousin, Julian, openly waiting for Lucas to die to inherit the empire, while the doctors prepared to sign the death certificate. I didn't understand why my father would lie about my son’s death for years, or what kind of monsters would use a child as a bargaining chip. The injustice of it burned in my chest as I realized I was just a pawn in a game of old money and blood. As the monitors began to flatline and the family started to celebrate their inheritance, I locked the door and reached into the hem of my dress. I pulled out the sharpened silver wires I’d fashioned in the prison workshop. They thought they bought a submissive convict, but they actually invited "The Saint"—the world’s most dangerous underground surgeon—into their home. "Wake up, Lucas. You owe me a life." I wasn't there to be a bride; I was there to wake the dead and burn their empire to the ground.

For seventeen years, I was the crown jewel of the Kensington empire, the perfect daughter groomed for a royal future. Then, a cream-colored envelope landed in my lap, bearing a gold crest and a truth that turned my world into ice. The DNA test result was a cold, hard zero percent-I wasn't a Kensington. Before the ink could even dry, my parents invited my replacement, a girl named Alleen, into the drawing room and treated me like a trespasser in my own home. My mother, who once hosted galas in my honor, wouldn't even look me in the eye as she stroked Alleen's arm, whispering that she was finally "safe." My father handed me a one-million-dollar check-a mere tip for a billionaire-and told me to leave immediately to avoid tanking the company's stock price. "You're a thief! You lived my life, you spent my money, and you don't get to keep the loot!" Alleen shrieked, trying to claw the designer jacket off my shoulders while my "parents" watched with clinical detachment. I was dumped on a gritty sidewalk in Queens with nothing but three trunks and the address of a struggling laborer I was now supposed to call "Dad." I traded a marble mansion for a crumbling walk-up where the air smelled of exhaust and my new bedroom was a literal storage closet. My biological family thought I was a broken princess, and the Kensingtons thought they had successfully erased me with a payoff and a non-disclosure agreement. They had no idea that while I was hauling trunks up four flights of stairs, my secret media empire was already preparing to move against them. As I sat on a thin mattress in the dark, I opened my encrypted laptop and sent a single command that would cost my former father ten million dollars by breakfast. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves, but they forgot one thing: I'm the one who leads the pack.
