Bloody Betrothal

On a freezing Chicago night, Isabel is publicly discarded at her husband Adrian's IPO gala after three years of hidden marriage. Within twenty-four hours, she loses her child and sheds her disguise, walking into the boardroom as the Montgomery heir. This is not revenge—it is overdue breathing. As champagne foam turns into a crimson judgment, she reclaims not just a company, but the right to exist beyond a surname. The ink on the divorce paper was never an ending; it was the first signature of her resurrection.
