Meet the Man You Called Weak

Leonard Carter, heir to Seaville's richest family, hides his identity to protect his girlfriend, Tessa Xavier. He works as a hotel waiter and gives her a soda-can ring, only to be scorned by her family. Hurt and angry, Tessa goes abroad for five years with Frank Smith. When she returns, flaunting her engagement and humiliating Leonard, she doesn't realize he has built Tessard Pharmaceuticals—curing diseases and astonishing the world, while she can only watch in regret.
