Reborn Heiress: The CEO's Lethal Obsession

“Aria's stepsister Blair handed her a bottle of sleeping pills, convincing her to fake a suicide attempt to finally escape her obsessive, tyrannical fiancé, Julian. But as Aria lay paralyzed on a freezing unfinished rooftop, Blair sneered and injected her with a lethal, untraceable synthetic poison. Blair didn't just want to break the engagement. She wanted Aria dead to steal her twenty percent stake in the Carlisle Group. To completely break her spirit, Blair shoved a phone in her face showing a live news report. "He was coming for you. Took a route too low, too fast." Julian's helicopter had crashed into the East River in a fiery explosion while he was desperately rushing to save her. As the freezing poison stopped her heart, Aria finally understood. Julian's suffocating control wasn't about ownership-it was a desperate, clumsy attempt to protect her from her venomous family. And she had fought him, hated him, and played right into her killers' hands. Why was her life only worth a fraction of company shares? Why did she realize who truly loved her only when they were both dead? A primal wish exploded in her soul: if she had just one more chance, she would make them pay in blood. Opening her eyes again, Aria found herself back in Julian's penthouse, exactly five years ago. It was the very day she had swallowed the pills. Hearing Julian's frantic, furious footsteps approaching the bedroom, this time, she didn't scream or run. Instead, she threw her arms around the "monster's" neck, ready to use the most powerful man in New York to tear her family apart.”
