She was the daughter they lost. She became the woman they never saw coming.
Six-year-old Ava Elwood vanished during a glittering summer fair, leaving behind a shattered family and a legacy of grief. Years later, she returns-not as the fragile girl they remember, but as Aria: a self-made billionaire, fierce, untouchable, and hiding the truth behind a crescent-shaped birthmark.
The Elwoods had moved on. They adopted Elise, a perfect replacement, a princess in pearls. But when Aria reclaims her place, Elise begins to unravel everything with lies, manipulation, and a dangerous game of victimhood.
Punished by the very family that once mourned her, Aria walks away-with her CEO boyfriend Ryan, her beloved grandmother Margaret, and an empire she built from ashes.
But when the truth explodes and Elise's mask falls, the Elwoods want her back.
Too late.
Because this heiress isn't just lost. She's reborn.
