Then what would happen to her? Henrietta was the only mother she had ever known. She had never even met Beatrice. And now she was stuck in a wheelchair. How would she survive as an illegitimate child? Scarlett’s loud cries drew others out of Grandfather’s room. “Henrietta, wait!” Felix called as he hurried after her. “Please don’t leave like this…” he said, stepping in front of them and blocking their path.

"I don't understand what you mean, Melanie. The whole nation envies you for marrying a man like him. You have a net worth people can only dream of, and life's perfect for you. I'd never set you up." She darted ahead and grabbed my sleeve. "Don't play dumb with me! He married you in our previous lives! You knew he was a monster, but you were waiting for me to step right into it!

Both she and Andrew had been humiliated right in front of all their former classmates. But during the class reunion, she managed to get acquainted with Frederick, one of the Four Elites of Rivershire.

This is the story of a young man with a secret talent who plays good samaritan and finds himself at the center of a battle bigger than himself... but he won't be alone!
