Daddy, Pay Up

A rising architect, Chloe Hayes was drugged and framed by jealous stepsister Sienna four years ago, leading to a one-night stand with real estate titan Tristan Vance. Sienna stole Chloe's identity, while a pregnant Chloe fled. Now, an award-winning Chloe returns to New York with her genius 3.5-year-old son, Leo, who confronts Tristan at Vance Tower with a $350,000 child support invoice. Stunned by Leo's resemblance, Tristan's DNA test exposes Sienna's fraud. But when Tristan offers "compensation"—money and marriage—Chloe fiercely rebuffs him. To earn her respect, Tristan sheds his CEO arrogance, moving next door to begin a grassroots courtship, with Leo as his stern auditor. Through boardroom betrayals and sabotage, Tristan falls not for the idea of family, but for Chloe's brilliant, fiercely independent soul.
