The Scorned Woman's Unstoppable Rise

For my entire life, I was the secret architect of my stepbrother Hector' s perfect world. As the CEO of our family's empire, I funded his every whim, letting him play the prince while I quietly ran the kingdom.

That all ended the night his girlfriend-a bar manager I once hired-had me beaten in the cellar of my own hotel.

She called me a charity case, a pathetic leech trying to mooch off his money. Then she and her guards cracked three of my ribs and demanded half a million dollars to let me go.
