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?
As she pondered on Trisha's words, Valerie's gaze met with Greg's, who just came out from the bathroom. Their eyes locked and her heart skipped a beat.
Valerie felt this excitement build up inside her, as if the words she just recalled meant nothing at that moment. Maybe her husband wasn't the same. Perhaps Trisha misjudged her husband. Maybe Greg would prove her doubts wrong.
Would he be able to set aside any ego-driven concerns and truly listen to her aspirations? Valerie's heart hung in the balance, awaiting Greg to say something, to do something.
But instead, he broke the stare and walked away to blow dry his hair. Valerie's eyes followed Greg, her mind reeling in disappointment. The tender moment had vanished, replaced by the mundane routine of getting ready.
She felt a pang of pain in her chest, as if his withdrawal was a physical rejection. Valerie's thoughts swirled with doubts.
