Substitute Bride

Having a mother and brother who were always extorting his money, making him a cash cow, was something no one wanted. However, it was much worse when his wife's wealthy family did not accept him. He was being made the family driver, being insulted with words that should not be received by a son-in-law, seeing firsthand the affair committed by his wife, and being reported to the police for violence just for injuring the man who was his wife's affair. When all that happened, not once did Ethan blame them. He could only curse and fantasize about his fate of not having an influential family. However, who would have thought that when he was at the lowest point in his life, an older man suddenly came and introduced himself as his Grandfather. From then on, he became determined to avenge all the humiliation and pain he had felt on them, one by one. He would not let anyone escape his clutches. The Ethan of today is no longer Ethan, the driver in his wife's family, but Ethan Kinsey Aldebaron, the only grandson of the Kinsey family, the biggest business owner and most feared gangster.

For three years, Diego Herrera was mocked as nothing more than a “substitute husband.” His wife sneered, “Diego, you were never my man—you were Alejandro’s replacement.” Humiliated, treated like a parasite, Diego endured in silence. Until the night he walked away. What no one knew? The man they despised was the God of Martial Arts, a healer feared in every hospital, and a hidden CEO whose empire made generals and billionaires kneel. “Diego, you’re worthless!” Isabella spat. He looked at her once, cold and final. “Worthless men don’t make CEOs tremble.” From boardrooms to battlefields, his name will shake nations. Doctors, generals, tycoons—every one bows before him. And every woman who once laughed at him now fights to catch his eye. Heiresses, celebrities, even daughters of the most powerful families… all whisper the same thing—they want him. But Diego has no need to chase. He is the storm. The boss. The man untouchable. “You’ll crawl back to me!” Isabella mocked. He smiled faintly. “No. You’ll kneel.”
