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?
Reginald Thornton-Furst, a seasoned collector, smirked. "I'll take it for $800,000!" His confident tone filled the air, as if he was sure to win it.
The pot bellied new-money was known for collecting rare items of any kind, no matter the price.
Sophia Patel, a perfume expert, countered, "No, $850,000! I must have it." Her passion was unmistakable, her eyes shining with determination.
"$1 million!" Austin finally entered the fray. His deep voice commanded attention.
"Bidding increment soaring by $200,000!" The auctioneer's voice echoed through the opulent ballroom, electrifying the atmosphere. The room vibrated with tension as luxury seekers and seasoned collectors held their breaths.
"$1.2 million!" Valerie countered, her voice piercing the tension-filled air. The room's attention shifted to her, eyes widening at the bold bid.
