I spent seven years making beds, scrubbing floors, and being invisible in a house that had my last name on the front of it. Then my father's empire started crumbling and suddenly I existed again. Damien Chen, the most powerful businessman in the room, had one condition for saving everything my family built. He wanted a Harrington bride. The eldest one specifically. Everyone assumed he meant my sister. But he actually wanted me. The poor broken daughter of the Harringtons. My father had to stand in front of cameras and call me his daughter for the first time in my life. My stepmother looked like she swallowed something poisonous. Vivienne has not stopped plotting ever since. Damien made his agreement clear from the beginning. This was a transaction. I would stand beside him at events, smile for photographs, and stay out of his way the rest of the time. The humiliation of hearing that was worse than anything my family ever said to me. What he did not expect was that I had been watching this business my entire life. And I would be the one to bring it down. I went to Damien with an offer. Help me burn it all down and build something real from the ashes. Teach me how to run an empire. Give me an equal seat at the table. And surprisingly he said yes. Neither of us expected what came after that.
