My name is Jenifer Zach. I gave eight years of my life to Reed Gould, erasing my own identity to become the perfect wife. My reward? He left me alone on a surgical table during an ectopic pregnancy to comfort his first love. My own son, Romano, was taught to look at me with contempt, his heart poisoned by the very woman who shattered our family.
That night, the woman he took for granted died. With nothing left to lose, I decided to become myself again. The mysterious “Nova” whose fireworks now dominate the market? That’s me. His most brilliant and fearsome competitor? Also me. And the secret heiress to the Zach dynasty he never knew existed? That is the woman I truly am.
Now, Reed’s world is unraveling. He is a man haunted by regret, his empire threatened by a rival he can’t unmask. He begs for me to return, but that version of Jenifer is a ghost. I am Jenifer Zach, and from the new life I’ve built, they can only watch as I rise.


My smile disappeared, voice dripping with scorn. "Mrs. Gould, criticize the Zach family's etiquette all you want, but at least we wouldn't stoop to using a mistress to destroy our son's marriage.


"And whether my family values me or not, I'm still the Zach heir. Everything I own, wherever I work, belongs to the Zach. It has nothing whatsoever to do with you."


Honestly, most of the mess between Reed and me stemmed from Eliza tormenting me and constantly scheming to push Lorelei toward Reed.


I had her cornered, and we both knew it.


"Mrs. Gould, if you only came to deliver lunch, don't waste your time. Knowing my luck, if I accidentally damage this container, I'll be indebted to the Gould family forever," I shot back, my tone cutting.


I recalled bringing Romano to Gould Villa for a holiday. Reed couldn't attend, and after dinner, Eliza insisted I wash the dishes.
