Reborn to Burn: The Heiress's Revenge
“On the night of her wedding, Alexis Davenport was tied to a rusted steel pillar in a dark wine cellar, her couture gown soaked in her own blood. Her husband of three hours, Colby, casually flicked a lighter and sneered that he never loved her, only coveting her family's priceless tech patents. Beside him stood Bobbye, the orphaned cousin the Davenports had raised like a second daughter, who slapped Alexis and declared she was taking over her life. They brutally forced Alexis's crushed, bloody thumbprint onto the equity transfer papers. Then, Bobbye smiled and held up her phone, showing a live security feed of the Davenport estate engulfed in roaring flames, with Alexis's parents trapped inside. Colby poured industrial gasoline over Alexis's head and tossed the lighter. "Go reunite with your parents in hell." As the hungry fire swallowed her alive, unbearable hatred poisoned her dying mind. Her family had given them wealth, education, and unconditional love. Why did they slaughter them so ruthlessly? She swore if there was an afterlife, she would drag them both into the abyss. Suddenly, Alexis's eyes snapped open, gasping for air. The agonizing heat was gone. She was lying in a sterile hospital bed, her skin completely unblemished. She looked at the digital calendar on the wall: May 17, exactly three years ago. She had returned to the day of her engagement party. This time, she would ally with Wall Street's most dangerous tyrant and burn their lives to the ground.”
