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?"

The moment their hands touched, Tristan firmly grasped her hand. The two of them exchanged smiles.


As they walked out of the private room, Cynthia noticed the black-clad figures not far behind. She raised her eyebrows subtly, realizing they were Tristan's people.


A warm feeling swept through her heart, and her lips, moistened, formed a gentle smile. Over the years, she had grown accustomed to being strong, to facing everything independently. Like today, she could handle things on her own without anyone's assistance, but Tristan chose to accompany her in his own way, protecting and supporting her.
