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?"

"And what does this count as? A proposal?" She raised her hand, shaking it.


"Does it matter if I agree or not?" Cynthia looked at him helplessly. "You didn't even give me a chance to refuse; you just put the ring on my finger."


Tristan reached out and embraced her, "Blame it on your beauty."


He knew Cynthia had always wanted a sense of ceremony, and he was willing to indulge her. But Zack's appearance yesterday had made him feel uneasy, forcing him to resort to this last resort.
