Hidden Passion in the Ashen Night

[Both leads are faithful + a second chance at love + the husband’s long road to winning his wife back]

After their secret marriage, she found herself in an impossible position.

Because his biological daughter, Lin Ruzhen, couldn’t have children, Lin’s father secretly sent his adopted daughter to Di Junyao’s bed.

It took just one night for her to get pregnant.

Di Junyao, heir to Jiangcheng’s most powerful family, married her.

Lin Wanyi had loved Di Junyao since childhood. Faced with this unexpected joy, she felt guilty for drinking too much that night, even as she became immersed in the man’s bone-deep tenderness.

When her due date arrived, things went as expected.

“Something’s wrong, Mr. Di! Your wife is hemorrhaging during labor!”

“Save the baby,” the man said coldly.

Lin Wanyi was utterly shocked, tears slipping from the corners of her lips.

In their most passionate moments, Di Junyao would give Lin Wanyi anything she asked for, even his life.

But in truth, he only wanted the child in her womb so he could make a happy family of three with Lin Ruzhen.

So this was how cheap love could be.

She had thought that concealing her identity as a wealthy heiress would let her find true love.

Now she realized she had to kill off the gentle, kind “stand-in Miss Lin Wanyi” herself and become the formidable “top tycoon Lin Wanyi” once more.

She would take back everything she had lost, a hundredfold.
