I was the true heiress of the richest man in Harbore, living away from home, and no one but me knew the truth. I had loved Leo Whitfield for ten years, but at our engagement party, he chose his first love over me, turning me into the whole city's laughingstock. He said someone like me wasn't even fit to clean his toilets. I laughed, and right in front of everyone, I linked arms with his disabled, disfavored older cousin, Ethan Sterling, the rightful heir to Cealwand. "If you won't marry her, I will," Ethan said. Later, Leo stood in the rain for three days and nights begging me to come back, only to witness my grand wedding to Ethan broadcast worldwide. When the priest asked if I would spend my life with Ethan, I took the microphone and said, "Has the final agreement to acquire the Whitfield Group been signed?"
