The Secretly Rich Man

"I am pregnant. And you are going to take responsibility for the child,” Lombard’s girlfriend said—the problem was, the child wasn’t his. At twenty-eight, Lombard August has everything—wealth, power, influence. But for two years, he buried it all. Why? Because for once in his life, he wanted something real. A family. A future. Then he met her. A woman with terrifyingly real supernatural powers… and morals strong enough to make him believe she could be the perfect mother to his children. So he stepped down. Stayed quiet. Endured disrespect. Let her powerful family look down on him— All to prove he was worthy of her. They made one mistake. They thought he was ordinary. They thought he was beneath them. They have never been more wrong. Now, the woman he sacrificed everything for is carrying another man’s child… and expects him to raise it under the will of a “Holy One.” Her family agrees. To them, Lombard is just a convenient choice. A man they can assign a life to. What they don’t know… Is that the version of Lombard they’ve been seeing— Was never real. And the man he truly is? Is not someone you control. It’s someone who takes control. Now, with divine power, ruthless elites, and betrayal closing in, Lombard has only one choice: Return to the man they should have feared. The Saintess chose the wrong man to mess with. And soon… even the heavens will regret it.

He was buried alive on a Tuesday. Not with soil and a coffin but with debt, betrayal, and the quiet, practiced cruelty of a woman who had spent six years perfecting the art of destroying a man while making him feel grateful for the privilege. Daren Cole woke in the ruins of a collapsed building, the only survivor of a disaster his own company had been contracted to prevent. He had no money. No name. No proof he had ever built anything. His wife had already signed the divorce papers dated three days before the disaster, as though she had known. His business partner had already moved his assets offshore. His in-laws had already changed the locks on the penthouse apartment he had paid for. He had forty-eight hours before the arrest warrant was issued in his name. He used forty-seven of them to become someone they would never recognize. Armed with a recovered hard drive containing evidence that could bring down an entire industry, a dead man's identity that opened doors money alone couldn't, and the muscle memory of a man who had once built empires from nothing Daren doesn't come back for revenge. He comes back for reckoning. His wife is already chasing a richer man. His partner is already spending his money. His city is already celebrating his death. Let them. The question is not whether Daren Cole will reclaim everything they stole. The question is what he will do when the woman who buried him alive comes to him on her knees and he realizes he still knows the exact sound of her laugh.
