Haunted Heart Of The Heiress

"What is it? Who sent it?" "It's the usual," Lucy replied with a shrug. "Ah," Adrienne took the package from Lucy and opened it. Inside, there was a red, sexy dress and matching heels, along with a note. The note read, "Wear this tonight ~ BOSS." ***** Adrienne is a woman who has it all - brains, beauty, money, power and a heart that's been closed off for years. Adrienne's past has left her crippled emotionally, and the only constants in her life are her successful business and personal assistant, Daniel. But when Ryan, the heir to a conglomerate, enters her life, she feels a spark of curiosity, not love or infatuation. As their relationship develops, Adrienne is confronted with the painful reality of her past and the people responsible for it. She's faced with a choice: to follow her heart or seek revenge. Will she find peace or further heartbreak?

"Suspected murder? Are you sure?" Juliette exclaimed, her voice filled with disbelief, as she spoke to the person on the phone.

"Okay, I'll head over there now," Juliette said, determination lacing her words, before promptly hanging up.

Curiosity and worry etched on his face, Ryan turned to Juliette and asked, "What happened?"

"It's my cousin. He was arrested a few hours ago," Juliette replied, her voice laced with concern.

"So, he is a murder suspect?" Ryan ventured to ask, his eyes searching hers for answers.

Juliette nodded solemnly, her features tinged with sadness. "According to what I was just told, yes. But he's innocent, I promise. I need to go there and see what's really going on."

Offering his support, Ryan stepped forward and gently said, "Let me drive you there. I don't want you to go alone."
