Destroying My Own

Dante Moretti's world shatters in a single night. Fired from his job, he arrives at his wife's birthday party only to witness the ultimate betrayal—Giulia kissing Leonardo Greco, his former boss, in front of everyone. "This was never going to work. We're from different worlds," Giulia says coldly, flaunting the emerald ring that replaced Dante's wedding band. Her mother delivers the final blow: "Giulia is pregnant. With Leonardo's child, of course." Homeless and broken, Dante is kidnapped by a mysterious woman who drops an impossible truth: "You're my brother. The long-lost heir to Apex Crown Holdings." His real name is Ryan Ricci. The "worthless" husband is actually a billionaire heir. "I don't want handouts," Dante tells his dying sister Selena and bedridden father Pietro. "I want to earn it." Going undercover as a lowly employee in his own company, Dante begins his transformation. But Leonardo and Giulia are plotting to manipulate the "naive" new heir, unaware their target is the man they destroyed. "Naive people are easy to manipulate, don't you think?" Leonardo smirks. He has no idea who's really playing whom. When the scorned rises from the ashes, everyone pays.

My peaceful short life had been quickly cut off by a band of bandits that had raided my village, killing my father and capturing my mother. The bandit leader took a fancy to me and decided to make me one of them because of my face, for reasons unknown to me, but this was only the start of my journey. The more I grew up the more I realized that I had no talent, I was as ordinary as I could be, with no inherited memories, no old masters to help me improve my talent, no legacies left behind, no locked bloodlines that would burst into activity when I was in danger. But I still had something that most people didn't have. A stubbornness that many wouldn't possess, the stubbornness and sense of danger that I got for life after I saw my father die in front of me. And with that, I shall predate upon those that are more talented than me. I shall walk forward and reach the apex of the world, not because I want to protect anyone, but because that's simply what I want to do! Regardless of the methods that I have to use or the people that I have to push out of my way!
