I went abroad for three years to build a lab and save my husband's company from collapse. After endless struggles, I finally cracked the technical problems and developed the core technology. When I returned home with that breakthrough, I saw the airport video board plastered with the same impossible headline—my husband was getting married. I felt a hot, furious ache and took a taxi straight to the venue. … A woman who had cared for our household for years blocked me at the gate and sneered. "Who do you think you are, showing up at the Stone family's wedding? Get out of here, or I'll get security to throw you out." For a moment, I stood rooted, but then the bride appeared, walking out of the villa in a wedding gown. It was the woman Adrian Stone had once told me was dead—his first love, Evelyn Sutton. She wore my wedding ring on her finger and looked at me with pure contempt. "You want to make a scene at my wedding?" she said. "If you do, you're really asking for trouble. My husband, Adrian, won't hesitate to take care of you." I folded my arms and let out a cold laugh. "Adrian's getting married? Funny, I don't recall getting an invitation."

“Didn’t you have your own man?” Scarlett continued sharply. “Or did it finally dawn on you that Adrian is better?” she said hatefully as the face of Lucien flashed on her mind. “Do you think you can steal Adrian from Scarlett?” June commented sharply. “Better know your place.” She added and her words got Elowen attention. Elowen calmly placed her phone back into her bag. She looked at them quietly and then she chuckled. “Steal?” she repeated softly and sighed tiredly like it was a joke. “Why should I steal what I already gave out?” She asked with her brow raised Confusion flashed across their faces not understanding Elowen's words. “Scarlett wanted Adrian so badly,” Elowen continued calmly. “ I gave him to her and I'm too generous to take him back from her” She added, tilting her head slightly. .........

The moment he steps into Elowen’s world, the rules change. The Whitemere family soon realizes they didn’t just lose control of Elowen— they awakened a force that will expose their secrets, crush their pride, and rewrite their fate.
