The Heir's Revenge

Synopsis

Jeremiah Randolph was a poor student sponsored by my father, and my so-called "childhood husband." I despised him—he was tacky, poor, and I did everything I could to make his life miserable for five years. Then came the day my father's company went bankrupt. That was when I found out the truth. He wasn't some hillbilly from a backwater village, as I had thought. He was the prince of Urymond City, a powerful figure with the world at his feet. He humbled himself to come to my home—not to help, but to exact revenge on my father for the humiliation he'd suffered years ago. Jeremiah slammed a contract for a corporate acquisition in my face and invited me to be his most degrading lover. His friends, all rich and powerful, waited for my fall, eager to watch the spoiled daughter of a ruined family grovel at his feet. But I looked him straight in the eye, unbothered by his triumphant gaze. Shaking my head calmly, I said, "I refuse." "Jeremiah," I added, my voice steady, "you probably don't know this, but my father already made sure I have an escape route. And that route leads straight to your father."
