The Bastard I Married

After her fiancé betrays her with her stepsister, Elena Rossi refuses to become a discarded bride. Gifted with the ability to see red threads of intimacy, she chooses Damiano Moretti—the family’s notorious bastard and supposed playboy—as her new husband. What begins as a strategic marriage soon reveals a deeper truth: Damiano is neither useless nor reckless, but a brilliant mastermind with a secret intelligence empire and a fifteen-year vendetta against his family. As Elena fights to reclaim her inheritance, their contract marriage slowly becomes real love, while betrayal, hidden crimes, and family power threaten to tear them apart.
