Underestimated by the elite, she chose the perfect moment to strike

Matilda Grantley arrived in Goldhaven with one trunk, fourteen days before losing everything, and a secret sewn into the lining of her luggage. She had no options left. Her father was dying, debts had consumed everything they owned, and the only way out was a contract with the most powerful man in the city: Wallace Thornton, the steel titan who built an empire without allowing himself a single weakness. He didn't offer her love. He offered her a deal: three years of marriage in exchange for financial stability and social respectability. Nothing more. Nothing less. A contract as cold and precise as the man who drafted it. But Matilda wasn't what Wallace expected. She wasn't the decorative wife who would stay quiet and smile on cue. She was a businessman's daughter, trained to observe, to calculate, to understand the numbers others overlooked. And she had discovered something no one else knew: a hidden connection between Thornton's empire and a man under legislative investigation. A secret that could destroy everything Wallace had built. A weapon she carried in silence for months, never using it, waiting for the exact right moment...
