His Hidden Heir: The CEO They Cast Aside

I was Ava Miller, a former foster kid desperate for a fresh start. My new job as companion to the intimidating Mrs. Eleanor Davenport seemed like my escape. But Eleanor had a hidden agenda: she wanted me to 'manage' her powerful grandson, Ethan. Desperate for the promised money, I followed her subtle instructions, which shockingly escalated one night. Pressured to 'help him unwind,' I used a sleeping powder, leading to an encounter I never anticipated, a desperate, morally compromising act. I soon discovered I was pregnant. Eleanor swiftly paid me off, telling me my 'services were no longer required' before Ethan's arranged engagement. I was discarded, used, and heartbroken, forced to flee and struggle raising my son, Leo, alone, far from their opulent world. How could they manipulate me like that? The shame burned, but so did a fierce determination. I vowed Leo and I would never be discarded again. Years later, just as I' d built a peaceful life, fate delivered a stunning twist. I was Ava Sterling, the lost heir to a tech billionaire, now CEO of a global empire, finally independent. But then, Ethan Davenport walked back into my life, his eyes widening as they landed on Leo. He saw his own face in my son and demanded answers. This time, I wouldn't be silent. I would unveil the brutal truth, fight for my son, and for myself.
