She Was a Joke, Now the Queen

“On her twenty-fifth birthday, Eveline woke up to the cloying scent of champagne and a ballroom full of contemptuous whispers. Her adoptive sister, Ciara, was clutching her arm with manufactured tears, publicly accusing Eveline of hiring men to kidnap her and ruin the party. Her husband, Frederick, stared at Eveline with pure disgust. "Eveline, I never thought you were this vile." Her biological father slammed a deed of renunciation on the table, forcing her to sever all ties with the family. In her past life, Eveline had sobbed and begged them to believe her innocence. But her frantic denials only earned her deeper scorn from the man she loved. Frederick had tossed her aside, her biological family had mercilessly abandoned her, and her life was systematically dismantled piece by painful piece until she died in absolute despair. She died never understanding why her desperate, all-consuming devotion was treated like filthy dirt beneath their shoes. Opening her eyes, Eveline realized she had been reborn on the exact day her nightmare began. This time, she didn't shed a single tear. She calmly signed the divorce papers, projected the hidden security footage of Ciara paying off the kidnappers to the entire ballroom, and walked away to reclaim her true billionaire bloodline.”
