Tvtropes Last Man Standing

When Corwin comes home to bury his father, the whole city already has a name for him: the servant's son. His father spent thirty years bowing to the Renfrew family, and now that debt has landed on Corwin in the cruelest way possible, a forced engagement to Isabelle Renfrew, daughter of the house that owns everything, including the small room his father used to sleep in. Isabelle hates him on sight. Her cousin Vivienne mocks him at every turn. Her uncle Desmond treats him like dirt on a shoe. Nobody in that house knows that the quiet man they humiliate every day is not a beggar hoping to marry into money. He is Corwin Ashford, the last living heir of the Sterling Group, a name powerful enough to buy the Renfrew empire twice over and still have change left. He came home to bury his father. He stays to bury the shame they tried to bury him under. But love was never part of the plan, and somewhere between the insults and the silence, Isabelle Renfrew becomes the one thing his revenge did not account for.

The last strand of patience I had snapped into shreds when she chose her ex-lover’s son over our dying daughter. Now she paraded around smiling, flaunting him like a trophy, while I was left with nothing but the cold, lifeless body of my child. This wasn’t about hurt anymore. It wasn’t even about pain. She’d stolen a soul from me — and she would feel every atom of what I felt, and more. “I want a divorce.” “That’s not happening. You and I are in this together,” she screeched, eyes boring into mine, searching for the man who always bent to her will. “You will sign the papers,” I said, every word a quiet stone. “Make me!” I stepped closer. My hand closed at her throat — delicate, trembling under my grip — and forced her to meet me. “Sign the papers,” I whispered, voice low and cold. “Or I’ll make you suffer so that even our daughter hears your screams from six feet under.”
