Ava Sterling co-founded Meridian, the nation's most formidable legal enterprise, but concealed her ownership to nurture her insecure husband Julian's executive career. Playing the humble housewife at home, she quietly steered lucrative corporate retainers to his desk. Her devotion meets sickening ingratitude when she walks into the office and catches Julian indulging in an illicit affair with his ambitious secretary.
Refusing to endure further emotional humiliation, Ava serves divorce papers and convenes an emergency assembly of the firm's equity partners. At the prestigious annual charity gala, she unveils her true identity as majority shareholder, publicizing three years of Julian's embezzlement and client theft. Crushing her unrepentant former spouse means taking command of the courtroom empire she built from scratch.
