[Status: COMPLETED] 

In her previous life, Adrienne Jiang had used all means to save her mother’s life. Her father had neglected her after marrying his mistress, allowing the mother-and-daughter pair to bully her to no end. The older brother whom she thought she could rely on gave her a cold shoulder and chastised her instead for not cutting their mother’s life support.

In her despair, Adrienne almost fell into the trap set by her stepsister. In the end, she entered a contractual marriage with her best friend’s brother, Alistair Han, a man she’d been carrying a torch for from a young age.

Only then did she realize that the man was manipulative and obsessive, not wanting her out of sight. She had been treated like a bird trapped in a golden cage.

In the end, she met her demise at the betrayal of her brother and everything was lost in the fire. After being reborn, she was determined not to continue being a good-for-nothing person.

Lennox Qin, the vicious young master of the Qin family, was set to become the next head of their family. However, because of an incident, he was crippled and deemed unworthy. When he and Adrienne’s paths crossed, they came to an agreement.

“I’ll marry you to remove your bad luck and be your wife for two years. In return, allow me to use you to destroy the Han and Jiang families.”

The man seated in a wheelchair merely raised a brow at her declaration. His lips then curled into a dashing smile and he agreed without batting an eyelid. However, when the time was almost up, he rushed to convince her to stay in their marriage.

“Madam Qin deserves the best. If it’s the world you desire, I’ll bring it to you on a silver platter. You can have the entire world, but darling, do not forget that while everything belongs to you, you belong to me.”

Adrienne furrowed her brows.

“But you don’t even like me...” She reasoned out, thinking that her husband might have lost his mind.

“No, I didn’t, but I do love you now. In fact, you are the only one I think of these days.”

However, it seemed to her that not only her husband was trying to get her attention but her in-laws as well.

Reborn Young Miss: Phoenix Burning Red

"Do you think you can win against me?" Alistair scoffed. "I failed to see why Adrienne would choose someone weak like you."

"Keep my wife's name out of your filthy mouth!" Lennox hissed at him.

With his right eye swollen, it was hard for Lennox to keep his focus. But he was determined to prove Alistair wrong. He knew he was at a disadvantage, but it didn't dissuade him from protecting Adrienne from this man.

Lennox knew he only had one chance to confront Alistair, and he could not allow this man to escape without facing the consequences of his actions. Lennox was prepared to do whatever it took because he knew that if Alistair managed to escape, he would continue to pose a threat to Adrienne's safety and well-being.

"Adrienne would regret choosing you after I'm done with you." Alistair grinned. "You shouldn't have gotten between Adrienne and me, Lennox Qin. You have no idea how long I've waited to punish you for taking her away from me."
