Synopsis
One moment, Benjamin Sterling was showing off at a KTV, confidently betting that Maxine Rhodes would come running back to him the second he called.
The next moment, Maxine kicked open the door and coldly announced,
“Benjamin Sterling, we're over.”
Without looking back, she quickly entered a flash marriage with Ethan Hawthorne, one of the country's most powerful businessmen.
Seeing her move on so quickly, Benjamin only laughed. Holding his overly close adoptive sister in his arms, he mocked her.
“Playing hard to get? That's getting old.”
Maxine's answer was simple.
She destroyed the company she had spent five years secretly supporting and threw the acquisition papers in his face.
“Take a good look. I was the one keeping you afloat all this time.”
As for her marriage with Ethan Hawthorne, it was supposed to be nothing more than a business deal. They agreed it would only be about money.
But somehow, the cold and untouchable billionaire spoiled her endlessly.
Then, Ethan's beautiful business partner returned from overseas, and Maxine became convinced she was his long-lost first love.
Out of jealousy, she cut all his suit pants into trendy ripped styles, stuck a note on his computer saying, “First Love Not Allowed to Use,” and even put the expensive diamond necklace he gave her around his husky's neck.
Only for Ethan to corner her one day, his voice low and helpless.
“Baby, why don't you understand?”
“My first love has always been you.”
A sweet and satisfying romance filled with revenge, misunderstandings, and a billionaire husband who falls much harder than anyone expected.
