LA REINE DES CLAQUES

Regina, the formidable, iron-fisted matriarch of the Jiang family, strikes fear into everyone in City A. Three years ago, she went overseas to develop a life-saving cure for her daughter Lily's rare illness. Yet when she returned with the finished medicine, her family had fallen apart. Regina's gold-digging husband Victor colluded with housekeeper Harper and her daughter Yvonne to seize control of the household. They usurped Regina's place as mistress of the house, then joined forces with Lily's fiancé Felix to reduce her to a servant. Lily endured daily abuse until she was driven insane. Heartbroken and enraged, Regina rescues her daughter. She vows to reclaim her status, attend the grand banquet, and make every wrongdoer pay dearly.
