Evelyn, the “Queen of 100 Billion,” suffered the greatest betrayal of her life at her daughter Audrey’s wedding—she spent 30 million dollars
—only to have her only daughter publicly declare Sabrina, her husband’s mistress, as “Mom” on the red carpet she had laid out, trampling her dignity underfoot. Moving from shock to utter despair, Evelyn made a swift decision: she canceled all credit cards, reclaimed the luxury mansion and stock shares she had gifted, and issued a public statement severing all ties with her daughter. She thawed embryos that had been frozen for years and, at the age of 52, restarted her plan to have a child—since this daughter wouldn’t acknowledge her, she would have another child, and not a single penny of her 100-billion-yuan fortune would be taken away. Meanwhile, having lost her mother’s protection, Audrey finally saw through the facade of her so-called “warm and loving family”: her stepmother, Sabrina, and her husband, Carter, had conspired to fleece her until she was left with nothing; her biological father, Grant, stood by coldly, eager only to get a cut of her trust fund. It wasn’t until she was deep in debt, blacklisted, and arrested by the police for attempting to hire a hitman to kill her mother that she finally came to her senses—behind those cold, hard numbers lay everything her mother had sacrificed her life for. In the end, Evelyn walked out of the hotel ballroom cradling her newborn son, Nicholas, passing by her former daughter, who had been reduced to working as a janitor. Audrey knelt on the ground, weeping and begging for forgiveness, but Evelyn simply replied, “I don’t know you.” The Evelyn who used to live for others was dead; from this day forward, she would live only for herself.
