Five years ago, Nicole, in an attempt to save her mother, fell into the trap of her younger half-sister and, through a thoughtless act, was disowned by her own family. Five years later, she returns to the country, but now she is the one calling the shots and is ready for her revenge. With a plan drawn up and the power of decision in her hands, she is certain that this is her time. But not everything goes as planned. Sometimes the heart speaks louder than reason, and what's more, what she remembers from that fateful night may not be what really happened. It was a dark night, heavy curtains covered the room in complete darkness. Two bodies pressed against each other on the bed. The man with the heavy breathing; with an athletic body, but his manners were rude. Nicole was in so much pain that she tried to push the man away a few times. However, after thinking about her mother, who was in the hospital, she gave up any kind of resistance against the man. She made a pained expression, grinding her teeth, letting him do what he wanted to her again and again... After a long, long time, the man finally fell asleep soundly. Enduring the pain, Nicole staggered out of bed, got dressed and went out. Wearing elegant makeup, Queenie Anderson walked to the bedroom door at a calm pace. "How was it sis? Have you pleased young master Joseph?" With a noticeable arrogance in her eyes when she saw Nicole's depressing figure.

Ambition and Obsession Chapter 1 The Heiress' Return

It was a dark night, heavy curtains covered the room in complete darkness. Two bodies pressed against each other on the bed.

The man with the heavy breathing; with an athletic body, but his manners were rude. Nicole was in so much pain that she tried to push the man away a few times.

However, after thinking about her mother, who was in the hospital, she gave up any kind of resistance against the man. She made a pained expression, grinding her teeth, letting him do what he wanted to her again and again...

After a long, long time, the man finally fell asleep soundly. Enduring the pain, Nicole staggered out of bed, got dressed and went out. Wearing elegant makeup, Queenie Anderson walked to the bedroom door at a calm pace. "How was it sis? Have you pleased young master Joseph?" With a noticeable arrogance in her eyes when she saw Nicole's depressing figure.

So what if Nicole is beautiful and excels in her studies? In the end, at most, she's just a replacement for me, isn't she?

Nicole's voice was shaky and hoarse as she made an angry expression and raised her pretty, stubborn face. "Don't forget what you promised me, Queenie."

"The 200,000 has already been transferred to your account," Queenie replied as she tossed Nicole's cell phone back to its owner. And then, with a tone full of malice, disdain and provocation, she added, "Of course I won't forget that, after all that was the money you prostituted yourself for."

His words full of venom pierced Nicole's heart like a knife, but Nicole didn't care, after taking her cell phone back, she ran to the hospital.

After Nicole was completely out of sight, Queenie sighed coldly and entered the suite.

Joseph Mann is the youngest of the Mann family. Despite his bad reputation, his father, Robert Mann, is very fond of him, as Joseph was born when Robert was already older.

Joseph was quite drunk that night, so he would never know about the sisters' exchange. When he sees the blood on the bed, he will certainly take responsibility for what happened! If it weren't for Joseph's preference for only virgins, I wouldn't have left this opportunity to Nicole, that dog! Queenie thought to herself.

However, in the bedroom as soon as she took off her clothes and lay down on the bed, the man on the bed suddenly woke up. Quickly, he grabbed her neck tightly with his strong and large hand, exuding a terrifyingly murderous aura throughout her body. "Who are you?" His voice was husky, with a small trace of lust for him sleeping with someone, but her behavior was extremely dominant.

To Queenie's surprise, as soon as she lifted her head, she saw that the man on top of her was not Joseph Mann. He was Colton Gardner, the current head of the Gardner family...

To which the Mann family was far from comparable.

Five years later, Nicole, dressed in her long, smooth overcoat, walked in high heels through the crowd at Goldwick Airport, attracting the attention of many with her beautiful face and sensuality.

Upon returning to her hometown, Nicole was lost in thought. Even though she earned 200,000 that year, by the time she arrived at the hospital, her mother had already passed away. According to the doctor, the hospital called several times while his mother was dying, but all calls were disconnected.

Nicole almost went into a depression when she heard this, while the hospital was calling, she was in Joseph's bed and her cell phone was with Queenie! In other words, it was Queenie who stole her mother's last chance to survive.

At first, Nicole wanted to end her own life after preparing her mother's funeral. However, she was restrained by the baby in her womb...

Suddenly, a boy's voice caught her attention. "Hurry up mom! I can't take it anymore!"

Nicole's mood immediately improved as she lowered her head and saw her son's sweet little face, which was already red from fighting the urge to pee. "Now you're in a hurry, right? I told you to use the bathroom on the plane, but you kept saying no."

"Mother!" Hayden Anderson pouted with a hint of annoyance.

"Okay, the airport bathroom is right there. I'll take you there," Nicole replied, unconsciously quickening her steps, leading her son through the crowd to the bathroom. "Can you manage on your own?" she asked, bending down a little. When they returned from abroad, her son insisted that they take everything with them, so it became a little difficult for her to follow her son to the bathroom while carrying so many things with her.

"Yes. Don't worry, mom. I'll be out in a minute." Hayden replied as he skipped towards the bathroom. It looked like he wouldn't be able to hold on much longer.

Nicole was carrying her suitcase and waiting outside when her cell phone received a call. Seeing the caller ID, she was slightly uncomfortable.

Why does this phone number seem familiar to me? I usually always save the number of people at work in my contact list... Even so, she still answered the phone.

A female voice with a tone of hesitation immediately spoke over the phone. "I'm sorry, Ms. Lisa..."

The woman spoke with a respectful tone, the voice seemed familiar, but Nicole didn't remember knowing anyone with that voice. "And you are?" she asked intrigued, in the last 5 years she had deepened her studies in fashion design. Eventually, she was discovered by a talent scout, so she joined F&M Confecção as Chief Designer under the nickname 'Lisa'.

At first, Nicole wanted to take Hayden to visit her late mother's grave on her trip home. It turns out that the F&M Confecção branch was in negotiations with the Gardner Corporation, the largest company in the country, for a partnership, so her boss asked her to help with the negotiations... Meanwhile, on the other end of the line, Queenie was talking

more low to appear sweeter. "Mrs. Lisa, I'll be her assistant while I'm in the country. I should pick you up this time, but at the moment I'm too busy..."

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."

I had been a wife for exactly six hours when I woke up to the sound of my husband’s heavy breathing. In the dim moonlight of our bridal suite, I watched Hardin, the man I had adored for years, intertwined with my sister Carissa on the chaise lounge. The betrayal didn't come with an apology. Hardin stood up, unashamed, and sneered at me. "You're awake? Get out, you frumpy mute." Carissa huddled under a throw, her fake tears already welling up as she played the victim. They didn't just want me gone; they wanted me erased to protect their reputations. When I refused to move, my world collapsed. My father didn't offer a shoulder to cry on; he threatened to have me committed to a mental asylum to save his business merger. "You're a disgrace," he bellowed, while the guards stood ready to drag me away. They had spent my life treating me like a stuttering, submissive pawn, and now they were done with me. I felt a blinding pain in my skull, a fracture that should have broken me. But instead of tears, something dormant and lethal flickered to life. The terrified girl who walked down the aisle earlier that day simply ceased to exist. In her place, a clinical system—the Valkyrie Protocol—booted up. My racing heart plummeted to a steady sixty beats per minute. I didn't scream. I stood up, my spine straightening for the first time in twenty years, and looked at Hardin with the detachment of a surgeon looking at a tumor. "Correction," I said, my voice stripped of its stutter. "You're in my light." By dawn, I had drained my father's accounts, vanished into a storm, and found a bleeding Crown Prince in a hidden safehouse. They thought they had broken a mute girl. They didn't realize they had just activated their own destruction.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.
