Once an heiress with everyone at her beck and call, Valerie lost everything after a single revelation. Six years later, Valerie is back to marry the 'poor' man her five years old daughter, Ruby has chosen to be her daddy. In the process, Valerie seeks to reclaim all that belongs to her and also to exact revenge on her enemies. What Valerie didn't see coming was that she would unlock a pandora box of secrets that would throw her and her daughter's life into more chaos. Greg Sinclair, the highly sought-after young billionaire, pretended to be a poor construction worker in order to become a part of Valerie and Ruby's lives. When he finally wins their trust, will he be able to hold his ground or will he be kicked out by both mother and daughter when his identity is revealed?
Valerie's world tilted, her composure shattered. Ms. Victoria? The Humphreys? How could they? The room began to spin, and for a moment, Valerie felt like she was drowning.
"No," she whispered, her voice barely audible.
The reporter's eyes seemed to bore into her soul, piercing through her defenses. "I'm afraid it's true, Ms. Valerie," he said, his voice dripping with conviction. "The Humphrey family has confirmed the allegations against you."
His lips stretched into a smile, a cold, calculated gesture. "Ms. Victoria told our media that you, Ms. Valerie, seduced Mr. Sinclair and pinned your pregnancy on him, forcing him into marrying you." The words hung in the air like poison.
The reporter's gaze never wavered, his eyes locked onto Valerie's amidst the gasps of shock and murmurs.
"When he already had a fiancée that was not only approved by the Humphrey family but shared a history that went far back."
