Cassandra Quinn, a middle-aged, twice-divorced woman from a rural background, was considered the absolute bottom of the dating pool—so undesirable that even stray dogs wouldn't look her way. Gossip painted a grim picture: her parents were fugitives hiding overseas, she dropped out of high school after obsessing over the class heartthrob and getting into fights, and her first marriage ended in disaster because she demanded an outrageous bride price.    Her aunt sneered, "When you're out there, don't mention our family. I don't want your bad luck rubbing off on us!"    Her cousin smirked, "Try not to be too jealous of me. My fiancé is a brilliant scholar who studied abroad, while you're stuck marrying some disgusting cripple."    Even the school belle looked down on her. "Think of it as a blessing to take my place. Sure, he's ugly, but at least he's rich."    Cassandra smiled calmly. "Alright then, here's to a bright future for us both."    Everyone thought she was just a pretty face from the countryside. But a year later, when she revealed her true identity, she took the world by storm.   A renowned medical expert? The chief operative for a global organization? A genius heiress with royal lineage?    The public could hardly believe it. "Cassandra, please take us under your wing!"    Then, just days later, a scandal broke: rumors spread that Cassandra was keeping a young lover.    The Blake family was furious. "How can we let this slide? Divorce her! End this marriage now!"    But Nathan Blake calmly discarded his crutch and dropped his disguise.    The crowd gasped. "Wait… who's this ridiculously handsome man?"    Nathan smiled. "I'm the young lover my wife keeps."
