Very well-written. I can see the effort that the author put to set up scenes carefully, instead of just pushing the plot. Like how each chapter reveals something new in the past as well.

At first glance, this story looks cliché, but I'm glad I took a second glance, because the author handles the cliché tropes well (THANK YOU). If you crave the drama and creative liberty when it comes to realism of cn novels but NOT the trashy young masters, one dimensional green teas, and predictable white lotuses, then this book is for you. Don't judge a book by its cover... Literally and figuratively. My favourite aspect is the compelling cliffhangers. Author has a knack for writing them and making me gasp at the end of every chapter despite guessing the twist; credits to her skill and instinct. And that's not counting the plot twists we couldn't have seen coming. The characters are vibrant—FL is cool, collected, and likeable, ML is a doofus (as a certain, adorable someone once said: he's rich but stupid), and the side characters have just the right amount of screen time. I hate to admit it, but even the villains seem good sometimes—just not from the MCs' perspective. But even that could change in the future because the plot moves at such a pace that something is always happening and there's always a new reveal when you least expect it. Also, the romantic chemistry is palpable at the start of the chapters where there's romantic scenes, (because that's all I can tell without unlocking) which is a plus and tempts me to unlock the chapter. Overall, this has been an inspiring read. From a reader's perspective, it took me out of my reading slump and shocked me back to life with the twists and cliffhangers; as a writer, I want to learn from this author XD.

But he had already cheated on her—expecting a child with the very woman she despised with every fiber of her being. Her so-called ‘’family " was no better. The relatives she thought she could trust? They only wanted the inheritance meant for her and her little brother. The people who once smiled sweetly and flattered her?

Transmigrated Into The True Heiress

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.
