LOGINVera thought she had it all. The fancy life, a loving husband, a place she could proudly call home. But it turned into a nightmare when her husband’s HER returned. She came to her breaking point after her darling husband, Anthony publicly humiliated her, threatening to jail her for confronting his mistress disguised as his business partner. Done with her husband’s excesses, she opted for divorce but Anthony taking advantage of her poor status, threatened her to stay for his benefits. Except that life opened an astounding chapter for Vera when she discovered she’s the lost daughter of the richest family in metropolis.

Now wielding so much power, Vera becomes the only link for Anthony to win the billion dollar deal with the Hudson’s which he had longed for. With tables turned, guess who knelt before Vera begging? But what makes this drama more interesting is that decisions don’t solely rest on Vera’s shoulders but Anthony has to confront her overprotective brothers who swore to ruin him for hurting their sister.

I told myself it was probably another useless group chat notification or Russell checking in too early again. My phone has become background noise lately buzzing and blinking without demanding my attention.But it didn’t stop.The vibrations came again. And again. Sharp, insistent like something alive crawling across the mattress beside me.I frowned and opened my eyes.The screen lit up the dark room, notification banners stacking so rapidly I couldn’t even read them all unknown numbers, news alerts, social media tags, mentions. My chest tightened, a quiet instinct stirring before my mind caught up.Something was wrong.Or… right.I pushed myself up against the headboard, unlocking my phone. My thumb moved slowly, as if some part of me already knew what I was about to see and wanted to delay it.Anthony’s face filled the screen.I f
ANTHONY’S POVMy entire life has been a mess since Vera suddenly became jewel Hudson.My life was falling apart and Clair had taken all I've ever worked for.Days had passed, and every hour felt like I was sinking deeper into quicksand, slowly, until breathing itself became a punishment. I barely slept. I barely ate. I went to my company but I barely knew what I was doing.I ended up staying home for the rest of the other days.My company was falling apart and my parents were nowhere to be found when I needed their support.I called Clair several times and pleaded with her. I was ready to forget what I saw that night and forgive her.I wanted to move past it and save my assets until I figured things out.But nothing was going my way. I was at the edge of destruction.My only option was to plead with Vera but she hasn't answered my calls or replied to my texts in a week.“Please,” I whispered at my phone screen for the hundredth time. “Just reply… say something…”But nothing came.My
VERA’S POVAnthony stared at me expectantly;“One,” I started, “Send me a copy of the divorce papers, already signed by you. I don't need your poor assets.He swallowed hard but didn't say a word.“Two,” I continued, “You will do whatever I ask you to do. Starting now.”“What?” he was taken aback,“You heard me right,” I said, stepping slowly away from him, “And the first thing you'll do is take off your jacket and clean my shoes with it. In front of everyone.”His eyes widened in horror. “Vera…”I glared at him, “What did you just call me?”“I mean, Jewel. But you're being ridiculous,” he stepped closer, shaking his head, “I have a dignity to uphold, I can't do that in front of all these people.” “No?” I tilted my head. “My father and my brothers will be thrilled to know that my pathetic husband is here.”I turned away and walked into the crowd.“Three.

They all looked pretty and I didn't know which one to pick.After much deliberation, I picked the sparkling blue ball gown.I was dolled up with make-up, sparkling diamonds on my neck, ears and wrist. My hair was curled like a Disney princess hairdo.I've never been this pampered and adorned like this in my life.After everything was completed, I stood in front of the mirror and I could barely recognize myself.I looked stunning, I didn't have anyone to tell me that. I looked like I had just stepped out of a royal portrait, a woman dressed in power.I saw Anthony’s name on the guestlist, a

Mr Hudson looked at the paper in his hands again, his hands trembled as he passed it to Roman;He moved forward to stand in front of me; I didn't know how to react or what to say, I just stared at shocked faces as they took turns to look at the DNA papers.But there was something in the way Mr Huds
