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?
"This...this isn't something you can just say," Harry stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. "Ple- please, put the knife down, Zoey. You've already..." He couldn't bring himself to finish the sentence, the horror of it all choking his words.
Zoey's gaze never wavered, her smile twisting into a grin. "You still don't understand, Harry. Valerie's not just a person. She's an obsession. A constant reminder of what I'll never have. And as long as you're mine, no one will ever take that away from me."
Harry nodded hastily, "Ye-yes, I'll be yours. We'll get married and have lovely kids. Just put the knife down, please." He took a cautious step forward, his hands extended in a calming gesture, palms up. His gaze darted between the knife and Zoey's face, searching for any sign of sanity.
