I married billionaire Joshua Reid in a cold, contractual union to fulfill my dying mother's wish. To the world—and especially to Joshua—I am nothing but a gold-digger, a puppet wife he openly despises. After I finally gather the courage to leave him, the truth he never sought begins to surface. Joshua makes a shocking discovery: I am the mysterious woman from a transformative one-night stand he has spent years searching for. The ultimate revelation stops me in my tracks one day, his voice a mix of fury and awe: “You have to explain why your daughter looks exactly like me!” The puppet wife he dismissed is, in fact, the mother of his child and the dream he let slip away.
