On the wedding night, the stepson crossed the line
I am the last daughter of the De Villeneuve family. To save our ancestral estate, I married a financial titan from New York. His heir—the stepson who sees me as a mark of disgrace—always watches me with those cold blue eyes. Until the family’s centennial celebration, when he publicly removed my mother’s crown from my head. ‘You don’t deserve it.’ That night, however, inside his tightly locked safe, I found the crown carefully preserved. Beside it lay a note: ‘For the only queen worthy of wearing it.’
