Lauren grew up an orphan—until one day, a wealthy couple showed up claiming she was their real daughter. She thought she’d finally get the loving family she’d always dreamed of. But after returning home, she found another girl already living in her place—the fake heiress they had spoiled for years. Her biological parents favored the fake. Her own brother lied in court to frame her just to protect the fake. Even the childhood friend she trusted the most testified against her. For Willow, they forced her to take the fall, sent her to prison, and left her there to suffer. Five years later— Her so-called parents knelt before her, crying. “Lauren, we were wrong. Come home.” The high-and-mighty CEO brother, pale and trembling, approached her. “Lauren, please… forgive me.” Even her childhood friend was on his knees at her door. “I’ll give you my kidney—just give me your heart, I’m begging you.” Too late. Five years behind bars had long since crushed any feelings she had for them. No matter how much they cried or begged, she felt nothing. And then— Lauren became dazzling, and admired by the world. She met a man who cherished her and only her. As for those who had once betrayed and destroyed her— Now, they could only watch from afar. Even stepping close to her was nothing more than a distant fantasy."
