The Stand-in Wife's Revenge

On Jasmine's birthday, her husband, Silas Vance, was at the hospital, keeping a devoted vigil as his sister-in-law gave birth. To the world, the child was the posthumous legacy of Silas's twin brother. But Jasmine knew the truth: Silas was the secret donor. Her husband had cheated with his widowed sister-in-law—also his greatest obsession and the entire Vance family was complicit, plotting to leave Jasmine penniless so the mistress could take her place. Fine! Since the Vances have no honor, Jasmine refuses to scavenge for love in a dumpster. Silas believed the wife he married was merely an unwanted foster daughter of the Thorne family—easy to dismiss and easier to manipulate. He had no idea that this very woman was the computer genius he had spent years searching for. Step by step, Jasmine calculated her revenge and crushed her enemies. After settling the score, she returned to her career and created a legend in the world of AI. She no longer had a heart for love, yet she remained unaware that she had been the long-lost obsession of Ethan Cross, the crown prince of Portshire, for many years. He cleared her path and helped her reach the summit, finally letting his hidden, long-standing passion erupt. Later, a ruined and desperate Silas cornered her, his eyes bloodshot with madness. "Jasmine, the child in your womb—he's mine!" Jasmine offered a calm, indifferent smile. "Mr. Vance. You aren't the father."
