TOO LATE, MR. WHITE—I’VE MARRIED YOUR GREATEST RIVAL Six years. That was how long Evelyn Rose loved Alexander White. She gave him her loyalty, supported his dreams, and stood beside him while he transformed White International into a billion-dollar empire. She thought she was his wife. She was wrong. Alexander had already planned their divorce. And when Evelyn discovered that he had secretly used her family's inheritance to protect his empire, something inside her finally broke. She didn't cry. She didn't beg. She walked away. Then Adrian Black appeared. Alexander's greatest rival. The coldest and most powerful CEO in New York. And he offered Evelyn a deal she never expected. "Marry me." It was supposed to be a marriage of convenience. A way for Evelyn to regain her freedom. A way for Adrian to defeat the man who had always stood in his way. But Adrian was hiding something. He knew Evelyn's father. He knew about the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death. And he knew Evelyn's inheritance was connected to a conspiracy far more dangerous than she could imagine. As Evelyn begins searching for the truth, she discovers that her father's death, her stolen inheritance, Alexander's betrayal, and Adrian's rivalry are all connected.

Now Evelyn is caught between a powerful ex-husband who desperately wants her back and a new husband who never expected to fall in love with her. Alexander thought Evelyn would always wait for him. He was wrong. Because by the time he realizes what he lost... Evelyn Rose is already Mrs. Black.

She thought she was just a poor girl trying to survive.Until the day she was brought into a powerful mansion… and told she would replace another woman’s place as a bride.No warning. No explanation. No choice.Her name is Amara Eze—a quiet, struggling young woman raised in hardship, constantly overlooked by society and treated like she was invisible.

She is taken away and delivered into the hands of a wealthy and influential family, the Aderemi House, known for their power, secrecy, and strict control over everything connected to them.There, she meets the matriarch of the family—cold, calculating, and intimidating.
