“**Prologue* After the tragic loss of her parents, Hazel's once-glamorous life as a wealthy heiress crumbled overnight. The family's inheritance, which should have secured her future, was seized by her cunning uncle. Stripped of her fortune, Hazel was left to fend for herself in a world that had turned cold and unkind. In her desperation, she was forced into marriage with Michael, one of the family's former bodyguards. Handsome but impoverished, Michael was known for his fierce temperament and ruthless demeanor. He treated Hazel with icy indifference, his arrogance cutting deeper than any words. Each day, Hazel endured the sneers of those who once envied her and the humiliating advances of women attempting to seduce her husband. Determined to rise above her circumstances, Hazel worked tirelessly to rebuild her life. But just as she began to find her footing, an unsettling discovery turned her world upside down. Lucas Donovan, the enigmatic heir of the Donovan family empire in Sky City-a dynasty worth billions-bore an uncanny resemblance to her husband. The resemblance was so striking that Hazel couldn't ignore the gnawing suspicion. "Darling," she asked cautiously, "are you related to Lucas Donovan?" Michael's expression didn't flicker. With his trademark arrogance, he replied, "I have nothing to do with that man. Look at me, wife. Don't waste your time comparing me to some petty boy." Yet the truth seemed closer than Michael let on. One evening, the Donovan family butler, overwhelmed with emotion, confided in Hazel: "Young Master Donovan is no ordinary man. He is both cruel and brilliant. His jealousy is as intense as his wrath, and his temper spares no one-not even me." Haunted by the revelation and fueled by curiosity, Hazel began to uncover fragments of the truth. As she pieced them together, she realized that Michael's connection to the Donovan family ran deeper than she could have imagined. But as secrets unraveled, so did Hazel's trust. Would she find the strength to confront those who hurt her? Could she forgive the lies, or would she be driven to seek vengeance for the life stolen from her? Join me as we unveil Hazel's journey-a tale of betrayal, resilience, and a love tested by fire.”
