The Billionaire's Hidden Heiress

END Chapter Main Character

.Sophia "Sophie" Cross — The story's protagonist. Hidden for fourteen years under the alias Sophie Lin after her mother's suspicious death, she worked as a barista at Cross Tower, steps from the fortune and family she was running from. Guarded, sharp-eyed, and fiercely self-reliant, she reclaims her reality.

Marcus Cross — CEO of Cross Holdings and Sophie's estranged cousin. Initially unaware she existed, he becomes her closest ally once her identity surfaces, risking his own position and family loyalty to uncover the truth. Steady, methodical, and quietly protective, his trust in Sophie grows into something deeper.

Richard Cross — Marcus's father and the man who engineered the succession that erased Sophie's branch of the family. Controlled, calculating, and the story's central antagonist, suspected of burying both a hidden will and the truth behind Elaine's death.

Daniel Cross — Sophie's father, long presumed dead. Manipulated into disappearing by his brother Richard, he resurfaces seeking his daughter, only to become a suspect himself once a hush-money trail links him to the week of Elaine's death.

Elaine Cross — Sophie's late mother, whose questions about a hidden will led to her death fourteen years earlier — the mystery driving the entire story.
