الوريثة التي لا تقهر

Stella Shaw, once Newport's top socialite, was pushed down stairs by her half-sister Molly seven years ago—leaving her with a cane and a shattered ballet dream. Now her father forces her into a marriage with the opportunistic Simon. Seemingly compliant, Stella has quietly laid her plans. Her security consultant "Cole" is actually Adrian Waverly, heir to the Waverly Group, lying low at her side. Her private investigator Sage is Evelyn, the daughter raised by her aunt Victoria. On her wedding day, Stella exposes Simon and Molly's betrayal, refuses to sign, and calls off the engagement. Then she discovers the "mother" in the hospital is a stand-in. The truth behind her real mother Vivian's disappearance surfaces. Stella strikes a deal with Victoria—and at The Aster Gala, she stages her ultimate counterattack: Evelyn reveals her identity, returning the Shaw Harbor Group to Stella. Adrian proposes under his true name. Stella accepts the ring—then flies alone to Capital City to continue searching for her mother.
