Architect Ophelia Henderson believes her marriage to rising tech mogul Emmett Carter is everything she ever wanted. Then Hazel Bennett, the woman from Emmett's school days, returns carrying his baby. Desperate to shield Carter Tech before its market debut, Emmett, his merciless mother Serena, and Ophelia's adoptive family betray her, locking her away and demanding that she surrender her own unborn child. On the verge of a forced procedure, Ophelia reaches Preston Carrington, the father she never knew and patriarch of a formidable legacy spanning commerce, banking, and government. Preston and Elowen race to rescue their daughter and grandson. The Carringtons destroy the Carter family's plans, expose their crimes, and leave Emmett and Hazel with nothing. At last, Ophelia embraces her real family and welcomes baby Theodore.
