As the granddaughter of the wealthiest magnate in San Heith, Cynthia Shannon had been in a relationship with Joe Louise for three years, only to find her sincere affections spurned and left in the dust.
Joe regarded her as a simple rural woman, and on their wedding day, he abandoned her to pursue another dazzling beauty, leaving Cynthia heartbroken. But once she decisively ended the relationship, she reclaimed her status as a wealthy heiress, inheriting a fortune worth billions. Her life then ascended to its pinnacle, yet there were always scoundrels who emerged to vex her.
Amidst Cynthia's efforts to deal with these scoundrels, a certain Mr. Ford, known for inspiring dread in anyone who heard his name, stood by, applauding her with admiration. "My formidable wife," Mr. Ford praised.
Cynthia Shannon replied, "Please mind your choice of words."
Mr. Ford half-closed his eyes, leaning elegantly against the bed, his movements bewitching. "With this token as evidence, do you still want to deny our bond?"

From Wedding Betrayal to Billionaire's Devotion

Cynthia smiled and shook her head. "I will adjust my own schedule." 


Besides, she felt that it wasn't quite appropriate for her to stay here like this.


Tristan's gaze darkened slightly. "I'll take you to the company tomorrow morning." 


In other words, she wasn't allowed to leave tonight.


Joyce, who had been silent on the side, spoke up appropriately. "Miss. Shannon, the doctor specifically instructed you to rest well before leaving, and Mr. Ford is also concerned about your health."


Cynthia hesitated for a while but couldn't resist the eager and hopeful gazes of these two people. She silently nodded her head.


A faint smile tugged at the corner of Tristan's mouth, and he continued eating.


After lunch, Tristan held Cynthia's hand as they took a stroll in the garden, finally resting in a pavilion. 


Tristan looked at Cynthia, who was sitting opposite him, and furrowed his brows imperceptibly. "Are you afraid of me?"
