Five years ago, the Su Group was on the brink of collapse. With no way out, heiress Su Ying used a fake pregnancy test to ensnare business tycoon Huo Tingshen, tying him to her and her family. Their marriage, built on a lie, won her his wholehearted support. But after she believed malicious rumors and made a terrible mistake, she ultimately sent him to prison with her own hands.
Five years behind bars erased every last trace of warmth in Huo Tingshen, leaving only a bone-deep hatred.
Five years later, he was released. Holding her young son by the hand, she summoned the courage to stand before him, facing his icy stare and scathing mockery. “Does Miss Su need another scapegoat?” He ignored the lilies she offered, every word cold.
Su Nianwan could endure the whole city's scorn and her family's ruin. Only the bone-chilling cold in his eyes could break her heart. Choking back tears, she offered the one bargaining chip that was real: “The child needs a father.”
All she got in return was even deeper hatred. “Why didn't you think of him while I was in prison?!”
Then the child he'd ignored looked up, his little face identical to Huo's, and timidly tugged at his pant leg. “Uncle, don't bully Mommy.”
Time stood still. Huo Tingshen bent down, his pupils contracting. The child's features were unmistakably a replica of his own!
Could the child he'd thought was nothing but a fabrication really exist? What other secrets had the woman he'd hated for five years been hiding from him?
The wall of hatred came crashing down before the truth of their shared blood. He suddenly grabbed her hand, his eyes roiling with fury and an all-consuming obsession, and rasped the words again:
“Let's get back together. We'll start over...”
