Betrayed Heiress: Marrying The Hockey King

Gu Chen Romance

“I was once the only heiress of Chicago's hockey empire, the daughter of the legendary Humphrey family that everyone looked up to. For a boy who had nothing, I gave up my family, my identity, and even the powerful marriage arrangement my father had chosen for me. I used everything my family had-resources, connections, and influence-to push a struggling young player from the bottom of the hockey world to the very top. But when I collapsed alone in a rundown apartment, too sick to even afford my own medicine, the call I made to him became the final heartbreak of my life. The man who once swore he loved me coldly told me: "Cassidy, did you really think I loved you? I only wanted Humphrey Group." And the woman standing beside him, enjoying everything I had given him while taking my place as his "perfect girlfriend," was the person I trusted the most. I gave them everything. And in return, they joined hands to take away everything from me. When my life was coming to an end, I received a call from a number I had not seen for years. It was from Case Hoover. The captain of the New York Rangers, the heir of the legendary Hoover hockey dynasty, and the man I once rejected with my own hands. When I was reborn, I was no longer the foolish girl who abandoned everything for love. This time, I will reclaim my father's hockey empire. I will make everyone who betrayed me pay the price. And the man I once pushed away stood by my side, looking at me with the same unwavering devotion. "Case, this time... please choose me."”
