She came back for revengeโฆ but love was never part of the plan.
Years ago, Guest and Isabella were childhood friends from wealthy families. While Guest was kind, compassionate, and loved by others, Isabella grew up in a cold environment where vulnerability was seen as weakness. After Guest lost her father, her familyโs fortune, and was abandoned by her mother, Isabellaโs jealousy turned into hatred.
What began as subtle mockery soon became years of relentless bullying. Joined by Helena Aleotti, Ariana Ferrero, and Jordan Russo, Isabella destroyed Guestโs reputation through violence, humiliation, cyberbullying, and corruption. Protected by Arianaโs influence over the school, every complaint was buried while fear kept everyone else silent.
A traumatic event during their final year shattered Guestโs life forever. After losing her grandmother, she disappeared, changed her identity, and swore revenge against Isabella, her accomplices, and the corrupt system that protected them.
Fifteen years later, Guest has rebuilt her life as a successful businesswoman. Returning to Rome, she earns a position as the personal secretary of Isabellaโs husband through her exceptional qualifications. Isabella fails to recognize the woman standing before her.
What begins as revenge may become something neither Guest nor Isabella expected, as the line between deception and genuine feelings slowly begins to blur.
*Fifteen years had passed since Guest disappeared without a trace.
Now, under a new identity, Guest stood in the lobby of De Luca Group, one of Romeโs most powerful corporations. Through talent and determination alone, Guest had earned the position of personal secretary to CEO Steffano De Luca.
Neither Steffano nor his wife, Isabella Caruso, recognized the person standing before them.
They saw only a capable new employee.
Guest saw the first step of a carefully planned revenge.
The elevator doors opened.
It was time to meet Steffano De Luca.*
I take a slow breath, steadying my heartbeat. This is it. They donโt know who I amโฆ and they never will until I decide otherwise.
I raise my hand and knock on the door.
