52 epsShe Left Him and Took Life Back
On a stormy night her husband's family made her kneel in the rain, while the step-sister who accused her watched from a dry doorway.
Eight years of cooking and cleaning ended the day her ex-husband's family learned the tycoon she now belonged to was the one paying their debts.
Shona Yan gave eight years to a marriage that treated her as unpaid staff. When the divorce finally lands, she has nothing to show for it except a reputation her ex-husband's family is happy to trash.
Sterling Huo, the most powerful man in H City, needs her specifically, and offers a trade: his protection and influence for her help. Shona takes it and uses the access to go after everyone who used her. She exposes her ex-husband live on stream, cuts his family off from the money and connections they were leaning on, and builds a name of her own. Sterling's interest started as a transaction, and Shona is careful not to mistake it for anything warmer until she is sure.
