For seven years, Seraphina was the silent engine behind the Valerius Empire, sacrificing her health and her own secret company to make her husband, Julian, the king of the business world. In return, she received a sexless marriage, a cold shoulder, and a mother-in-law who mocked her daily for not providing an heir.​On their seventh anniversary, the ultimate betrayal strikes: Julian’s first love appears with a four-year-old son, and the entire family welcomes the mistress with open arms. When Seraphina refuses to be a "nanny" to the child, Julian’s cruelty peaks, and he pushes her down the stairs seven times—once for every "wasted" year of their marriage—before tossing divorce papers at her broken body.​But Julian made one fatal mistake: he never checked who owned his debt.​Six months later, Julian is on the brink of bankruptcy, desperately begging for a meeting with the mysterious "CEO Thorne" of Apex Group to save his life. When he arrives at the city's most exclusive gala to meet his savior, he finds his "useless" ex-wife standing at the top of the social ladder.​The shock only deepens when Julian’s powerful, estranged uncle, Gabriel Valerius, steps forward to claim Seraphina as his own. Now, stripped of his pride and his fortune, Julian is forced to do the one thing he never thought possible: bow his head and greet the woman he destroyed as "Aunt."
