Jilted Heiress: Claimed By The Ruthless Billionaire

Gu Mumu Romance

“Liana was the adopted heiress of the Pruitt family, engaged to Austin Carlisle. But her perfect life shattered the day the family's biological daughter, Serena, finally returned. On that exact morning, Liana woke up in a hotel room after being drugged, only to realize she had accidentally slept with Julian Carlisle-the ruthless Wall Street titan and her fiancé's terrifying uncle. To make matters worse, she rear-ended his custom Rolls-Royce in the pouring rain just hours later. That night at the family banquet, her adoptive parents publicly stripped her of her engagement, handing Austin over to Serena. Austin mocked her as a worthless charity case. When Liana returned home, she found her room destroyed, her belongings shoved into cardboard boxes to make way for the "true" heiress. "Get out of my house! And don't you ever come back!" Her family froze her trust fund, kicked her out into the thunderstorm, and severed all ties. She had spent years trying to be the perfect daughter, only to be discarded like garbage the second the real one appeared. And as if her life wasn't ruined enough, a courier delivered a seven-figure repair bill from Julian Carlisle for his damaged car. It was an astronomical debt meant to completely crush her and strip away her last illusion of survival. Staring at the invoice with nothing left to her name, the polished facade of the obedient heiress finally died. Liana wiped her tears and gripped the paper tight. "I'm going to earn every single cent of this money with my own two hands, and I'm going to throw it right back in that bastard's face!"”
