His Rejection, Her Billionaire Engagement

My boyfriend of two years and I were a team. Both scholarship students, we pinched pennies and dreamed of a future we would build from nothing. I thought our love was real.

Then I discovered he was cheating on me with my best friend. The truth was uglier: our entire relationship was just a cruel, two-year-long fraternity bet.

I overheard him mocking me to his friends.

"She's a gold-digger who didn't find the gold," he laughed.

When I broke up with him, he retaliated by leaking our intimate photos, destroying my reputation and branding me a manipulative user.

Betrayed and publicly shamed, I had lost everything.

So I left town with a single suitcase. But my new life brought a shocking twist: I wasn't an orphan, but the long-lost heiress to a powerful family. At the gala celebrating my return, my ex crashed the party to beg for me back, only to watch in horror as the powerful CEO Cristian House got on one knee and asked me to be his wife.
