After five years of devotion, Silvia Henry discovers she is finally pregnant—only to catch her husband, Winston, in bed with her own younger sister. Worse, she learns he only married her for her intelligence and business acumen. Vowing to keep her pregnancy a secret, Silvia files for a divorce. But a sudden revelation changes everything... She discovers she's the secret heiress to a multi-billion-dollar empire. The catch? She has to marry someone else in seven days to get the inheritance. To protect her unborn child and take revenge on the man who betrayed her, Silvia enters a strategic contract marriage with Elliot Salvatore—the city's most ruthless alpha billionaire and Winston's ultimate arch-rival. Winston thought he threw away a helpless housewife, but he's about to face the ultimate billionaire Boss Lady.

“Sign the contract, Lena. One year of pretending to be my wife, and I’ll restore every part of the empire your family lost.” Adrian Vale was once the man I thought I knew. At least, that’s what I believed. Now, he is a powerful billionaire with a brilliant legal mind, lethal charm, and secrets buried beneath everything he has built. When my family’s empire is put up for auction, Adrian offers me a deal I can’t refuse: one year as his wife in exchange for the inheritance that rightfully belongs to me. But I’m hiding a secret that could destroy our agreement before the year is over. I’m pregnant, but the father isn’t the man I just married. Keeping my pregnancy a secret should have been the hardest part of becoming Mrs. Adrian Vale. Yet the more time I spend within the cold walls of his mansion, the more I discover that the man behind his charming smile isn’t who I thought he was. Then there’s Jeffrey, Adrian’s stepbrother, whose presence awakens an unsettling familiarity I can’t explain and a fear I can’t escape. The golden mask of the Vale family begins to crack, revealing a hidden inheritance, a mind systematically destroyed, and a truth someone would kill to keep buried. Now, with my unborn child’s life at stake, I must uncover the truth. Because in this house, nothing is what it seems. I signed the contract to save my past. But I may have to reduce the Vale empire to ashes to save my future.
