Joy made a slip of the tongue. She found herself stuck in the middle of gossip about her supposed marriage to Ted. Taking advantage of her sticky situation, he made her his bride, and when they tied the knot, he loved every inch of her as his lawful wife. He might be indifferent to her in front of others, but she was his goddess in private. His heart was already hers, alone. A fake marriage bound them to each other, but Ted's love for Joy was real and true.

Chapter 1 Rumors

In the HT International Hotel

John Liang walked into the presidential suite, carrying a file in his hand. Seeing the door of his boss's room was wide open, he gingerly walked inside. Upon entering, he noticed Ted Ye's attention was elsewhere. John Liang gently coughed, hoping to attract his attention.

Stubbing out his cigarette in the ashtray, Ted Ye looked up. "Well, did you find out the person behind the rumors?" he asked.

John Liang handed the file to Ted Ye and said, "I've found the name of the woman who started the rumors. I think she bore no ill will. Maybe you don't need to sue her."

After casting a cold glance at John Liang, Ted Ye opened the file and his eagle-like eyes scanned through the document. He drank in every detail that was present in the document. A slow smile worked its way to his face. Turning to John Liang, he asked, "Are you sure you have got the right person? Or could you have made a mistake?"

John Liang shook his head and said, "No, there is no room for doubt." Ted Ye's interest seemed to have been piqued. John Liang couldn't help but wonder whether he knew her.

After putting the file aside, Ted Ye looked up and caught the confused look on John Liang's face. He went forth and explained, "I know her from college. From what I remember, she was a simple and innocent girl. Even in my wildest dreams, I wouldn't have imagined she was capable of doing something like this. Well, I won't let her go so easily."

Ted Ye had made up his mind. Ever since he discovered the culprit, his plans had changed. He had originally planned to sue the person, but now he thought otherwise.

John Liang knew Ted Ye had some vicious plan brewing in his mind. 'Is Mr. Ye dealing with her because he's concerned about his reputation? Or is it because he has personal animosity toward her?'

He looked at Ted Ye and asked, "What are you going to do to her? After all, she is just a girl."

Ted Ye flashed him a smile, picked up a cigarette and lit it. After taking a deep drag, he replied, "As you said, she is just a girl. I won't harm her physically. But I will make sure she begs for my mercy."

John Liang frowned, wondering why he was so hell-bent on troubling this girl. 'Why can't he just let it go? It isn't worth his time!' he thought, but didn't have the guts to voice his opinion.

After taking another deep drag, Ted Ye glanced at his watch and said, "It's getting pretty late. You can go back and carry on with your work."

John Liang nodded and left the suite at once. Then, Ted Ye picked up the document again. He continued to stare at the girl's photo. A smile crept on his face. "I am sorry, but you are in trouble."

And then his devilish laughter echoed through the room. He filled his glass with wine and gulped it down. Not once the smile left his face. If anything, it grew wider.

At the Xie family's house, Joy Xie frantically searched for a tissue.

But before she could get her hands on it, a violent sneeze ripped through her body. She wiped her nose and wearily settled herself on the sofa.

Her mother came out of the kitchen and walked up to her. "Joy, didn't you say that you have a boyfriend? I was wondering why you haven't invited him home. I would love to see him."

Embarrassed, Joy Xie looked around, trying to come up with an excuse. She really wanted to make things clear, but she didn't know how to start.

Just then, the phone rang, attracting Joy Xie's attention. She secretly thanked the caller and picked up the phone. "Hello, Joy Xie speaking," she said in a clear voice.

From the other end, a girl burst out laughing. "Joy, I assumed you changed your phone number. But wow, it's still the same! Tomorrow noon is Cindy's engagement party. I hope you will show up with your husband."

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.

It was our fifth anniversary, and I sat alone in a Michelin-starred restaurant, staring at a diamond ring that felt more like an anchor than a promise. I kept telling myself Caleb was just busy, rationalizing the sharp, spasmodic pain in my stomach as mere nerves rather than my body's final warning. But when I went to his penthouse to surprise him, I found the double doors ajar. Through the gap, I watched my fiancé devouring Beatrice Blackwood on the sofa-the woman who had the family backing and confidence I supposedly lacked. He wasn't working; he was celebrating our anniversary by replacing me. The fallout was a calculated humiliation. The tabloids branded me a "pathetic orphan," and my Uncle Richard didn't care about the betrayal. He slammed his hand on his desk, claiming I was having another "psychotic episode" and accusing me of paranoia. He threatened to pull the plug on my mother's life support unless I went to the Hamptons to beg Caleb for forgiveness. My family even tried to force me onto heavy antipsychotics to keep me quiet for the sake of a corporate merger. I was being sold to a man who hated me by the very people who were supposed to protect me. I didn't understand why they wanted me broken, or why a mysterious stranger in an elevator had suddenly paid my mother's astronomical medical bills in full. Everything changed at a dinner where my uncle tried to trade me to a predator for a real estate deal. I didn't cry; I shattered a wine bottle and held the jagged glass to the man's throat. That's when Julian Blackwood, the most feared man on Wall Street, walked in and seized the house, the debt, and me. "I take my contracts seriously, Vanessa," he whispered, pulling me into his armored car as my family was thrown onto the street. I had escaped my uncle's cage, but as I looked into Julian's storm-gray eyes, I realized I had just traded a common bully for a beautiful, deadly king.

I was summoned home from boarding school for a funeral, thinking my family finally wanted me back. I stood in the pouring rain, watching a mahogany casket disappear into the mud, while the silence in my head felt like it was drowning me. That night, I hid behind a tapestry and listened through a vent to my father’s study. He wasn't talking about grief. He was talking about "tissue compatibility" and "near-perfect matches" with the family lawyer. They didn't want a daughter; they wanted a donor. My father’s voice was devoid of emotion as he discussed "the harvest." My half-sister was dying, and I was the spare part they had been growing for years. They had even removed the lock from my bedroom door so I could never truly shut them out. The realization shattered me. I was just a biological backup plan, a life deemed less valuable than the one they preferred. How could a father look at his own child and see nothing but a heart to be cut out and transplanted? I didn't wait for them to come for me. I stuffed a backpack, flushed my SIM card, and climbed out the window into a thunderstorm. I caught a bus to the middle of nowhere, ending up in a seat next to a massive, predatory man named Hoyt who looked like he’d killed people for less than a seat preference. He pinned my wrist with a grip like iron and growled, "Who sent you?" I couldn't speak to defend myself, but as we rolled into a dying town called Blackwood Creek, I knew one thing for certain. I would rather take my chances with a stranger with a gun than stay another night with the family that wanted me dead.

The air at my welcome-home party was thick with the smell of old money, but I smelled only betrayal. After years building my empire overseas, the last thing I wanted was to play nice with the ghosts of my past. Then I saw her, my ex-girlfriend, leaning into Andrew, my half-brother, the constant reminder of my mother's tragic death. The smile froze on Jen's face when she saw me, a flicker of panic in her eyes, but it was too late. I cut her off, my gaze cold enough to shatter glass, and made it clear: he was nothing, a cheap copy, and she, unworthy. What followed was a brutal, calculated war waged in boardrooms and on national television, where I systematically dismantled Andrew's life, exposing him for the parasite he was. But driven to desperation, he played his final hand, pushing me off a cliff into darkness, leaving me for dead, just as his mother had killed mine. I woke up weeks later in a hospital bed, the world buzzing with the scandal, but it was a single image that consumed me: Gaby Chadwick, the reclusive heiress, a woman I barely knew, praying for me, her silent vigil a public spectacle of devotion. Why? Why would she sacrifice her untouchable anonymity for me? I decided then and there to make her mine, proposing a cold, strategic merger, a union of power and dynasties. She accepted, but then, with unnerving calm, used my own words against me, creating a wall of polite distance, turning our marriage into a corporate contract. I had won the war, yet I was lost, trapped in a loveless arrangement of my own making, desperate to break through her serene facade. Then, hidden away in a journal, I found it: a decade of silent adoration, deep, unwavering love for me, a love that transcended any business deal. I had been blind, a fool. Now, the real story begins.

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
