Heir/Heirness

Intelligent

Betrayal

Face-Slapping

Revenge

Independent

They say revenge is a dish best served cold. Mine's been chilling for five years. The night James Reed kicked me out of his life, I was pregnant, penniless, and naive enough to believe love mattered more than money. He taught me better. When you're bleeding out in the rain, clutching your stomach while your best friend laughs from his doorway, you learn exactly what you're worth to people like them. Zero. But the woman who nearly died that night? She stayed dead. The one who came back is someone else entirely. Anna Quinn. Lost daughter of California's most powerful family. CEO of her own pharmaceutical empire. And the silent majority shareholder in James Reed's failing company. He's about to learn what happens when you build an empire on stolen foundations. His marriage has cracks he doesn't see. And the investors keeping him afloat? They answer to me now. He thinks he's untouchable. That my formula made him invincible. But success built on stolen work has a way of crumbling when the original genius decides to pull the rug out. I don't want him back. I want him ruined. And this time, I'm the one holding all the cards.

CHAPTER 001
ANNA’S POV"Anna, where are you? Have you heard the news?” Clara's voice came through the phone, bright and full of excitement. I pressed the phone closer to my ear, frowning. Clara was my colleague from the pharmaceutical company where I work, and she only called me when something big happened. “What news?” I asked, wiping my hands quickly on my apron. The smell of butter and sugar still lingered on my fingers. It was one of my off days from work at Greenleaf Pharmaceutical, so I was standing by my small roadside cake stand watching cars zoom past, hoping someone would stop to buy something before the cakes got cold. “James just got promoted and was awarded a huge sum of money!” Clara almost screamed. “I heard it was because of the new drug formula he submitted, it got approved by Davenport Group and the company is holding a promotion ceremony for him.” For a moment, I froze, my heart thumping so loud it drowned out the sound of traffic. My throat went dry. The drug. I swa

CHAPTER 002
ANNA’S POVI stood there frozen, my mouth open, tears sliding down my face before I could stop them. My chest felt like it had been ripped apart. My fingers went numb, my bag slipping from my hand to the floor.For a moment, I could not breathe. My heart pounded painfully in my ears.My boyfriend was kneeling, proposing to another woman, not just any woman, my best friend once upon a time.The same person who held me when James and I fought, who came to my apartment at midnight with ice cream and encouraged me not to give up on James. The same woman who laughed with me, shared secrets with me and I even took as my own sister.. Melissa.I wanted to scream James’ name, to ask him why, to remind him of the nights we stayed awake working, of the promises he whispered to me in the dark, of the dreams we built together.But my voice was gone. The crowd erupted in cheers. His mother clapped, smiling proudly. Cameras flashed. People screamed in excitement.And me?No! I couldn’t take it."

CHAPTER 003
ANNA’S POVMy heart sank as if a stone had dropped into my stomach. I had hidden that slip deep inside a box at the back of my storage room. I thought no one would ever find it. I wasn’t ready to tell anyone.So how had she found it?I had even managed to forget, at least for a little while, that something was growing inside me.I had gone to the hospital two days ago because I was feeling sick, and I walked out with the news that I was four weeks pregnant. That was supposed to be my secret. The one I wanted to share with James when he finally proposed. But now here I was, cornered, exposed, standing alone with my mother’s fury crashing down on me.“You dare ask me what you did?” she shouted, her chest rising and falling. “This is what you’ve been doing with your life? After everything I sacrificed for you, after all the money I spent raising you, you repay me by spreading your legs and getting pregnant like a common street girl? If Bella hadn’t found this, was this how you’d have kep

CHAPTER 004
ANNA’S POVI was so heartbroken and needed someone to talk to. I’d tried calling Clara before, but her number hadn’t gone through. I wiped my tears with the back of my hand and pulled my phone from my dress pocket to dial her number again. It rang once… twice… three times, but she didn’t pick up.It was like the day couldn't get any worse, it started raining.The rain fell so hard it felt like the sky itself was angry at me. I sat on the cold concrete outside my parents’ house, drenched from head to toe, shivering as the water soaked through my thin dress. The drops mixed with the tears on my face until I couldn’t tell which was which anymore.Everything inside me felt hollow.James had betrayed me. Melissa had betrayed me too. My mother had thrown me out of the house. Even my younger sister was happy about my misfortune.I stared at my phone again through the rain, the screen blurry beneath the droplets. Maybe James would pick up. Maybe he’d still care enough to answer, maybe it was

CHAPTER 005
ANNA'S POV God, my head hurts. A sharp, throbbing ache pulsed behind my eyes, forcing a groan out of me. I blinked several times, my lashes fluttering weakly as the blinding light from the window streamed across my face. My temples thudded like drums, and each breath I took made the pain worse. I turned my head slightly, trying to shield my eyes from the brightness. The light was too strong, too clean, nothing like the dim, cracked blinds I was used to at home. Wait a minute. Windows? My heart skipped. My place never had floor-to-ceiling windows. The most I had was a small square one with a half-broken latch and dust caked on the edges. I sat up a little, confusion flooding me as I took in my surroundings. This wasn’t my room. Not even close. The bed beneath me was far too soft, covered in smooth white sheets that felt like silk under my fingertips. The air smelled faintly of lavender and something expensive, something floral I couldn’t name. My gaze swept around the sp

CHAPTER 006
ANNA'S POV For a moment, my whole mind just stopped working. I stared at the woman standing in front of me like she had completely lost her mind. From what she just said, there’s every reason to believe she’s crazy. I didn’t even realize when a short, hard laugh escaped my lips. It came out louder than I meant it to, echoing through the room like something sharp and broken. I bent slightly, pressing a hand to my stomach instinctively because of the small injury there. The movement made me wince, but somehow, I still kept laughing. It was ridiculous. After everything that happened to me yesterday, laughing should be the very last thing I was capable of. I had been thrown out into the cold, bleeding, humiliated, left to die on the street like I didn’t matter. Now, this woman was standing in front of me, telling me she was my mother? “You don’t believe what I just said, do you?” she asked softly. My laughter slowly faded, my voice trailing off into a shaky breath. I expected

CHAPTER 007
ANNA'S POV "So, you believe me now?” the woman said to me, her calm voice carrying a hint of hope. “Not even close,” I replied sharply. “I’d first like to see my mom, my real mom.” The look on her face shifted, just slightly. Her brows drew together as her fingers brushed her temple, and she let out a quiet sigh before speaking again. “But you know you’re not in a fit condition to move around. You still need to rest,” she said, her tone filled with a soft concern that I wasn’t used to hearing from anyone lately. “If I can’t move, I’ll tell you I can’t move, okay?” I said, forcing a little attitude into my voice. I wasn’t going to sit here and be treated like a patient when I didn’t even know who she truly was. “Sure,” she said finally. “We’ll go see her. There’s no need to stress yourself too much.” I exhaled a small breath I didn’t even realize I’d been holding. For a moment, tension left my body. At first, I thought I’d been kidnapped, waking up in an unfamiliar place, su

CHAPTER 008
ANNA'S POV "That’s what I want us to talk about,” I said, my voice coming out low, almost trembling, but I kept my chin up. “Did you bring this lady here to beg me to let you in?” My mother asked sharply, her words slicing through the air. “If that’s what you’re thinking, it’s not going to happen.” Her tone carried the same venom I’d grown up hearing, that sharp, cold voice that could make anyone feel small in an instant. “Mom, please, just listen to me for once. This is way past any issues we have right now.” I said, clenching my fists tightly at my sides. “I see you can’t take no for an answer,” Bella said, stepping forward, her arms folded across her chest. “Mom said not to set foot here ever again.” I turned my head slowly toward her, my lips pressing together. Of course, she had to speak. She always did. Before I could reply, the woman beside me spoke, her voice calm but edged with something strong. “How can you two say something like this?” she asked. “She came to you

CHAPTER 009
ANNA'S POVThe doors of the vehicle made a small thud as we entered the back of the car. The faint sound echoed in my ears longer than it should have, blending with the ringing silence that hung between us. My chest felt tight as I sank into the seat, my fingers trembling slightly as I tried to steady them on my lap. I took in a small, shaky breath, but even the air felt heavy, pressing against my lungs as I tried to recover from the horrible news I’d just heard. A storm of thoughts crashed through my head all at once, loud and relentless. My dad, the man who raised me, who tucked me in when I had nightmares, who made me feel like I belonged in a house where I always felt like an outsider wasn’t actually my dad. The words circled in my mind again and again, cruel and sharp, each repetition cutting deeper. I squeezed my arms around myself as though holding tight would stop the pain from spreading. But it didn’t. The realization stung all over again, and before I could stop it, tear

CHAPTER 010
ANNA'S POV We had done the scan, and now I sat waiting for the doctor to return with the results. My fingers intertwined tightly on my lap, the pressure almost numbing my knuckles. I tried to focus on anything but the storm inside me. My eyes darted around the office, tracing the dull white walls, the shelf filled with dusty medical files. Anything, to keep my mind from thinking the worst. The ticking sound of the clock on the wall echoed louder with every passing second, and my stomach twisted. Every minute felt like an hour. I leaned forward, elbows on my knees, staring blankly at the floor. Then the door opened. The sound made both my mom and I spring to our feet at once. The doctor walked in holding a brown folder, the kind that suddenly felt like it held my entire future. I couldn’t even sit anymore. My pulse raced as my eyes stayed fixed on him, searching for something on his face — hope, relief, anything but all I found was weariness. “Doctor, how’s the baby?” my mom asked
