Chapter 1

Bang, bang, bang!A heavy baseball bat slammed into the car window. Cracks spread across the glass like a spiderweb.The impact had killed the engine. I was trapped between the seat and the airbag, blood trickling down my temple.Shaking, I fumbled for my phone and called home.Someone picked up right away."I'm at the abandoned rest stop. Someone's attacking me. Help!"I was sobbing, begging for help.Instead, Ethan snapped at me, "Nina, stop acting like a spoiled brat! You're a Mercer. Start acting like one! Quit lying and finish your task!"The line went dead. For a moment, I just froze.In a panic, I called 911."Help—"I didn't even get to finish.Bang!The rear side window exploded.Cold wind whipped across my face, carrying bits of broken glass with it.I screamed in terror.Several burly men reached into the car, grabbed me, and tried to drag me out.Just as I was losing all hope, a pair of headlights cut through the darkness.A tall figure stepped out of the car.It was too da

Third-person POV:Nina didn't come home that night.Not one member of her family was worried.Ethan picked up a dessert from the table and handed it to Wendy, who sat beside him."Don't worry about her. She's throwing another tantrum for attention."She's been like this for three years. Selfish and spoiled."Wendy pressed her lips together and came to Nina's defense in a soft voice. "Ethan, Nina just scares easily. Don't talk about her like that."Ethan gave a cold snort."Scared? That's what growing up in an orphanage did to her. She'll never change. All she does is bring trouble to this family."Just then, the evening news came on the living room TV, loud and clear."The abandoned rest stop is extremely dangerous at night. Please do not go there alone."They all glanced at the screen, but no one gave it a second thought.Mr. Mercer didn't care where Nina was right now.All he cared about was tomorrow night's Christmas party, where the city's elite would gather.The Mercer family had

Nina's POV:The city's elite had gathered for a lavish Christmas party.I stood alone in a corner, every wound on my body throbbing.I'd nearly been killed in last night's attack, but I still forced myself to come.My parents stood in the middle of the ballroom, glasses raised, proudly showing Wendy off to the guests."This is our daughter, Wendy. We hope you'll all give her your support."Praise and flattery poured in from all around them."What a lovely young woman. Wendy is beautiful, graceful, and charming."Wendy wore a couture gown and soaked up every compliment.Ethan never left her side, shielding her from the crush of guests.In the three years since I'd come home, no one had ever treated me with that kind of gentleness or patience.Then one of the guests watching asked, "Mr. Mercer, where's that biological daughter you went to so much trouble to find? I haven't seen her tonight."The noisy ballroom went silent.Mrs. Mercer immediately put on a sad, helpless expression."That

I straightened up and stepped out of the shadows, one step at a time.The moment I appeared, the noisy ballroom went quiet.All eyes in the room turned to my injured face.In the middle of the crowd, Wendy suddenly looked panicked.But she quickly put on her sweet, innocent act again, came over, and linked her arm through mine like we were close."Nina? What are you doing here?"I didn't say anything. I just pulled my arm away, and Wendy instantly looked wounded.Mr. and Mrs. Mercer looked embarrassed and furious.Mr. Mercer shouted at me, "Nina, who gave you permission to come here?"Mrs. Mercer's voice was ice-cold too. "What do you think you're doing here?! We just finished cleaning up the mess you made by calling the police. What kind of trouble are you trying to stir up now?"Ethan stepped in front of Wendy, as if he was afraid I'd hurt her."Go home right now. Don't make a scene here.""That necklace was bought with money from the trust fund Grandpa left me, wasn't it, Mom?"I di

I shook my head, my eyes stinging."Who are you?! How dare you barge into this party!" Mr. Mercer shouted angrily.But when he got a good look at the man's face, the words caught in his throat. His anger gave way to panic."M... Mr. Sterling?!"The whole room fell silent.The man standing before us was Adrian, whose power and influence in the city were unmatched.Adrian turned and pulled me tight against him.He held me steady against his warm chest, making me feel safe and protected.My heart started racing.It was the second time he'd protected me like this.Mr. Mercer couldn't hold back."Mr. Sterling... what is your relationship with Nina?"Mrs. Mercer hurried forward too, all smiles and flattery."Mr. Sterling, if Nina has offended you in any way, I'll make sure she learns her lesson!"Adrian looked down at me, and his grip on my waist tightened."No. She's done nothing wrong."Nina Mercer is my fiancée.""Fiancée?!" Mrs. Mercer shrieked, and the glass in her hand fell and shatter

A phone recording played from the tablet, every word clear.Wendy's voice came through, colder than anyone had ever heard it. "Get a few guys to stop her at the rest stop tonight. Strip her, take pictures and post them online, then kill her."Right after that, the screen showed high-definition security footage.In a private club, Wendy was handing a bag of cash to a gang member.Then came the full chat history."Oh my God... she actually hired someone to kill her own sister!""She acts like a lady, but who knew she could be so vicious?""That's a felony!"The guests around her stepped back in horror.The same people who'd been fawning over Wendy a minute ago now looked at her with contempt and disgust.Wendy was shaking all over, deathly pale.She collapsed to the floor, screaming in despair. "No! It's not true! Someone's framing me! Mr. Sterling, let me explain...""Framing you?"I gave a cold laugh."Wendy, you set up the game of drawing lots that sent me to the abandoned rest stop,

The uproar in the ballroom faded along with the sirens.After we left the party, Adrian took me back to the Sterling estate. He held my hand as he led me to the study on the third floor of the main house."Sit."Adrian took off his suit jacket. His fitted black shirt showed off his broad shoulders and the contours of his chest.I sat on the couch, still wrapped in his coat, surrounded by his comforting scent.I couldn't help thinking back to the pitch-black rest stop the night before, and how he'd appeared when I'd needed him most and pulled me out of that nightmare.Later that night at the private hospital, he'd wiped the dirt off my hands with warm water, as carefully as if he were handling something priceless.When I woke up from a nightmare, he was right by my bed to comfort me. "Don't be afraid. I'm here. No one will ever hurt you again."My heart raced uncontrollably at the memory."Still thinking about what happened back there?"Adrian poured me a glass of ice water and handed i

Early the next morning, reporters crowded outside the Sterling Group building.I watched Mrs. Mercer crying in front of the cameras."We brought Nina home, but she stole Wendy's place as Adrian's fiancée, and then had Wendy thrown in jail just to get her hands on the inheritance."Ethan stood next to her, speaking angrily into the cameras. "Nina is selfish. She faked every video from that party. She was willing to destroy her own family just to marry into money!"When he saw me walking over, Ethan charged at me, jabbing a finger in my face and yelling, "Nina! You ruined Wendy. You're vicious! You're a disgrace to the family!"He blocked the cameras and leaned in close to my ear to threaten me. "Sign a statement forgiving Wendy right now, and give up the trust fund! Otherwise, by the end of today, the whole world will know you're the shameless liar who framed your own family!"I looked at him and gave a cold laugh."Ethan, did you forget what you said to me on the phone that night?"I r

The Mercer Group collapsed even faster than anyone expected.The company's stock hit rock bottom, the banks called in their loans, and its business partners tore up their contracts.In the drawing room of the Sterling estate, a lawyer slid a document across the table to me."Ms. Mercer, the court has just issued an order to freeze and recover the assets. The Mercer family illegally used more than 30 million dollars from the trust fund. Those funds have all been frozen and will be returned to you."I opened the file.It listed everything my grandfather had left me: property, shares, the trust fund. All of it had been mine from the start.For three years, they'd latched on to me like leeches.Now they would have to cough up every last cent."And one more thing."The lawyer took out a second document."Mr. Mercer has been arrested for business fraud and tax evasion. Mrs. Mercer tried to visit Ethan and Wendy in jail this morning, but she was turned away."There was a commotion outside.A

A month later, the court handed down the final verdict.Wendy was sentenced to twelve years in prison for attempted murder and assault.Ethan got eight years for covering up the crime, conspiring in the murder-for-hire plot, and forging business contracts.All of Mr. Mercer's assets were frozen and seized over large-scale business fraud and serious tax evasion, and he faced up to ten years behind bars.The Mercer estate was sold at a court-ordered auction, and every cent went back into the trust fund in my name.On the day the verdict came down, Mrs. Mercer stood outside the prison gates in a shabby black dress, her eyes empty.Once the wife of a wealthy businessman, she now had to live off handouts from distant relatives.She cried hysterically, trying to see Ethan and Wendy, but the guards chased her off without a shred of pity.Outside the towering iron gates of the jail, I rolled down my car window.Through the pouring rain, Mrs. Mercer recognized me right away.She rushed over, fe
