They Wanted Me to Marry for Profit — So I Chose Love Instead

I was born into privilege but starved for purpose. Love, in my world, was a transaction — until I met Maya,

a painter with no pedigree, just truth in her eyes and color on her hands. She saw me, not the fortune.

Love didn’t cost me my empire. It gave me a soul.
