“Seraphina gave up her promising career to be the secret, devoted lover of Ethan, the billionaire Beaumont heir. When he woke up from a terrible car crash, he looked at her with empty eyes and claimed he had retrograde amnesia, forgetting her completely. But just hours later, she caught him laughing on the phone with a famous socialite. "Of course. Hook, line, and sinker. It's the perfect excuse, isn't it? A clean break. I can finally be done with her." He systematically erased her from his life, letting his new lover throw away her precious keepsakes and trying to buy her silence with a severance package. He publicly humiliated her in front of his wealthy friends, smashing her phone to destroy the last four years of their memories. When she still refused to break down and beg, his new girlfriend hired street thugs to corner her in a dark alley, intending to drug and ruin her forever. Four years of unconditional love were treated like disposable trash. Seraphina couldn't understand how the man who once held her so tenderly could watch from his luxury car as she was attacked in the street, driving away without a second glance. But she didn't shed a single tear. She calmly demanded exact change for her broken phone, walked out of his life, and took her career back. And as she fought for her life in that alley, the man who stepped out of the shadows to ruthlessly crush her attackers wasn't Ethan. It was Julian Beaumont-the most powerful, terrifying man in his family.”
