Charlotte Rivers was the most pampered heiress in Harbor City, and the entire Royal District was hers to command. While everyone was busy guessing who she'd choose as her husband, she stunned them all by buying her way into the Foster Family, marrying James Foster, the eldest son in Northbridge, for 10 billion dollars, just as news broke that his fiancée had ditched him. After helping the Foster Family get through the public spectacle, she returned to the bridal suite that never truly felt like hers. Online, the internet was flooded with glowing reports praising her for being elegant and dignified. But James was holding a photo of his girlfriend crying at the airport, accusing her of teaming up with the elders and resorting to unscrupulous methods. "You forced Vivian out by any means necessary, so now you have to face the consequences," he said coldly. On their wedding night, James set three rules for Charlotte: 1. No public appearances, no wedding ceremony. 2. They could only sleep together when she was ovulating, and only in a hotel. 3. She was never allowed to get close to him, and every time they were intimate, she had to wear a mask. Charlotte acquiesced in the first two rules, but when it came to the third, she pushed back.
