foundation

Dominic has always been the man people underestimated—dismissed, mocked, and written off as nothing more than a nobody. Working odd jobs to make ends meet, he finds himself constantly at odds with his fiancée’s family, especially her sharp-tongued grandmother, who sees him as a burden. But Dominic harbors a secret that even he struggles to believe: he's the new chairman of the prestigious Empire of Commerce, a position that holds the power to change lives overnight. Despite being underestimated, Dominic uses his wit, determination, and the element of surprise to shake the very foundation of those who look down on him.

Nolan Rhys was the silent architect behind Rhys Tech Global's meteoric rise. As Chief Production Officer and master strategist, he not only built the company's success but also orchestrated the foundation of his wife Evelyn's elite business empire—from the shadows. Yet, amid the widespread judgements in high society, Evelyn came to see Nolan as nothing more than a disposable pawn. Driven by ambition and the relentless pursuit of status she shattered their marriage, betraying and humiliating Nolan while stripping him of everything he'd built. Presumed broken and vanished without trace, Nolan disappeared—only to re-emerge as the elusive Phantom king. Now from his exile, he readies himself to dismantle the world that cast him aside, orchestrating a calculated return that promises to unpend the established order. The game is just beginning, and those who underestimated him will soon learn the true cost of betrayal.
