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?
"You think I don't know that you secretly hate G–dawg?" Mrs. Humphrey spat, her fury clouding her vision. "Huh?! You've always resented him for being the heir I chose, for being the one to carry on the Humphrey name."
Mrs. Victoria's face paled, her eyes filling with tears. "That's not true, Mother," she protested, her voice shaking. "I love Gregory like my own son. I would never harm him."
Mrs. Humphrey's expression twisted in disgust. "Don't lie to me!" she screamed, her voice piercing. "I've seen the way you look at him, the way you've always compared him to your husband. You're jealous, Victoria. Jealous of G– dawg's success, jealous of his inheritance."
The room seemed to shrink, the tension between the two women suffocating. Mrs. Victoria's eyes darted around, resting on her husband, pleading with him to save her from his mother's wrath.
