The Broken Heiress And Her Possessive Tycoon
“Waking up from an emergency appendectomy, Ana reached for her phone, expecting a comforting text from her boyfriend of three years. Instead, a trending video popped up, showing him passionately kissing her stepsister on an Aspen balcony. "She's just my assistant. Efficient, but boring. She'll get over it." His cruel words in the video revealed a calculated coup. Ana's 25th birthday was in three days. According to her father's will, if she wasn't married by then, her entire inheritance-millions in assets and the family company-would automatically go to her stepmother and this exact stepsister. They were deliberately keeping her unwed and bedridden to rob her blind. Three years of late nights and sacrifices for his career were all a lie. The betrayal hit her harder than the surgical pain. But the despair lasted only a second before morphing into a cold, sharp fury. She refused to let them steal her birthright. Yanking the IV needle from her bleeding hand, Ana ripped a photo of a rumored-gay playboy from a gossip magazine. She sneaked out of the hospital, determined to buy a fake husband within 72 hours. But in her pain-hazed rush inside a dimly lit private club, she approached the wrong man. She didn't realize the man she just proposed to wasn't a safe, harmless playboy at all. She had just accidentally married Austen Velez-the undisputed King of Wall Street, and her cheating ex-boyfriend's most terrifying arch-nemesis.”
