Married to the Lord I Raised

The Story

Barton Lockwood faked his death sixteen years ago to chase wealth, leaving his family in ruin. Eleonora Linden shouldered the burden alone, marrying the adopted son, Alistair Lockwood, to keep the lineage alive. Her steady support helped Alistair rise to a powerful position as a formidable official, and the two grew deeply devoted to one another. Now, their life together appears secure until Barton returns with another woman and a child. He intends to claim the family estate, disrupting the stability Eleonora built over the last decade and a half. The return of the man who abandoned them brings a sudden threat to the household, challenging the bond that Alistair and Eleonora have cultivated while navigating the complexities of their shared history and present power.
