The day Nathan's company went public, he came to the Bennett estate exactly as we'd agreed. Everyone assumed he was finally going to marry me. But the fiancée he brought with him was Vanessa. "I run a public company now. I need a wife who can stand beside me in front of a camera. "Vanessa is the Bennett heir, and she runs her own charity foundation. She's a better fit for the role than you are." He placed the keys to a Manhattan apartment in front of me. "After all these years together, I'm not going to leave you with nothing." He had no idea. Vanessa was just the baby the Bennett family had mistakenly taken home twenty-two years ago. I was the one they'd found and brought back. The real Bennett daughter and the sole legal heir to the Bennett name. I pushed the keys away and told him I'd already said yes to someone else's proposal. But Nathan assumed I was sulking. "Stop acting tough, baby. Who else is ever going to want you? "After Vanessa and I get married, I'll send a car for you." Sure enough, three days later, his driver was waiting outside the Bennett estate. Too bad. By then I was already Mrs. Cross. And that same morning, my husband had taken control of the entire Cross Group.

He Chose the Fake Heiress, I Married a Billionaire Chapter 11
A year later, Julian and I held another wedding ceremony.The first time had been far too rushed.No guests, no press, and even my father had to watch me sign the paperwork over video.This time, Julian chose Long Island for the ceremony.When I got up that morning, my father was already waiting outside my door.He was in a black tuxedo, and his eyes went red when he saw me."If your mother were still here, she'd have given anything to be here today."My hands stilled on my veil, and then I took his arm."Then you'll have to see it for her."A lot of people came to that wedding.Nearly all the board members from the Cross Group and the Bennett Group were there.The same people who, a year earlier, had been guessing when Julian would be pushed out of the Cross family now greeted him politely as Mr. Cross.And I was no longer the girl the Bennett family had brought home seemingly out of nowhere, the one hardly anyone could place.My father had formally stepped down as chairman.Every imp

The evidence went to the police within days.The night my father learned the truth, he sat alone in his study until morning.The next day he formally filed for divorce from Catherine.The foundation audit was completed at the same time.Diverted donations, sham consulting contracts, doctored financial records, one after another.On top of that were the hospital records from twenty-two years ago.Catherine was formally charged.Vanessa was stripped of every position she held at the foundation.Nathan filed for divorce two months after that.She came to see me once.I had just come out of a Bennett Group board meeting that day.She was standing in the underground garage, so worn down that I almost didn't recognize her."Evelyn, are you satisfied now?"I stopped walking."Satisfied with what?""I have nothing left."The foundation is gone, the Bennett inheritance is gone, and Nathan wants a divorce."Her eyes were red."The moment you came back, you tore my whole life apart!"I looked at

It didn't take long for Nathan and Vanessa's marriage to run into trouble.The financial press picked up on it fast.The newlyweds, once inseparable, had stopped appearing together at public events.Vanessa missed two Cole Technologies dinners in a row.As for me, I stopped paying attention to either of them.After Julian formally took over the Cross Group, we moved back to Manhattan.A month later, my father called and said, "The foundation audit turned up a problem."Over the past three years, close to twenty million dollars in donations had been paid out to a handful of so-called consulting firms.Every one of them traced back to Catherine.Stranger still, the person running one of those firms had once been an administrator at the hospital the Bennett family had used twenty-two years earlier.My fingers went still."What are you telling me?"My father was quiet for a few seconds."I've put people on it."The next afternoon a woman in her sixties came to our Manhattan apartment.Her

"The only heir?" Nathan said under his breath, then turned to me like he still couldn't take it in. "Everything you told me back then was true? You weren't testing me?"I folded my arms and didn't bother looking at him."I had no interest in testing anyone. It's just a shame. The Bennett family's backing was right there for the taking, and you threw it away with your own two hands."Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him sink into a crouch and drag both hands through his hair.My father kept going. "I finalized the change to the trust three months ago."The Bennett family's fifty-one percent stake in the group will pass to Evelyn."Nathan's head came up fast.Half the reason he'd picked Vanessa was her supposed talent.The other half was that everyone took it for granted she would inherit the Bennett fortune.And now neither one of those things had ever really been hers.Vanessa had clearly worked that out too."Dad, you can't do this to me."I've lived in this house for twenty-two yea
