My eyes spontaneously moved to wander at the woman who looked so different compared to the other women.

Evelisse Saint Laurent knew she had ruined everything the moment she became entangled with the infamous cold billionaire, Draven Virelli. Driven by her family’s greed and desperation for their approval, Evelisse did the unforgivable—she drugged the powerful billionaire and spent one reckless night in his bed. A single mistake shattered Draven’s seemingly perfect relationship and bound Evelisse to him forever when she discovered she was carrying his child.

In a world ruled by money, manipulation, and bloodlines, Evelisse Saint Laurent must decide whether she wants the crown… Or the man willing to destroy people just to keep her.
