My Secret Billionaire Protector

“Three years after her fiancé, Ethan Vance, supposedly drowned, Ava Miller finds herself enduring quiet grief at a tech mixer. Suddenly, across the crowded room, she spots him: Ethan, alive, vibrant, and laughing with a new, flashy woman. He shamelessly boasts about faking his death and his "amnesia," making Ava's years of sorrow seem like a cruel joke. Ethan and his new fiancée, Chloe, publicly humiliate Ava, mocking her appearance and implying she's a desperate failure still clinging to the past. When Ava calmly reveals she's married, they sneer, rejecting her simple platinum band and accusing her of being a pathetic liar, especially when she mentions the name Julian Thorne. Things escalate at their lavish wedding where, in a calculated setup, Ava is publicly disgraced, covered in wedding cake. Then, in a shocking display of cruelty, Ethan deliberately stomps on her hand, breaking her finger, while the crowd laughs and calls for her removal. Trapped, humiliated, and in agonizing pain, Ava's desperate plea about her true husband is met with vicious mockery. But just as all hope seems lost, a figure steps through the crowd, holding the hand of a small boy: Julian Thorne himself, and their son, Leo. His icy gaze, fixed on his injured wife and their child, promises an unleashing of power that will redefine everyone's future.”
