The Stolen Heiress's RevengeUpdated at Jun 13, 2024, 20:28
Twenty-year-old Cordelia Andrews was raised to believe she is a 'charity case' living in her father and step-mother's home, in Bedford, Nova Scotia. She has been harassed by her step-sister, bullied by her step-mother, and ignored by her father.
Her life path changed drastically after overhearing a conversation between her father and step-mother. She wasn't a poor 'charity case'. She was actually the key being used by her father which opened the door to their wealth. Which in fact, belonged to her.
Cordelia has to come to grips with the knowledge that the man she thought was her father, was not. He had taken advantage of her mother, who had been widowed. He coerced her mother to give him access to her business in Halifax, and all her bank accounts. Soon after, Cordelia's mother disappeared, and her step-mother and step-sister moved in and her life became a torturous hell.
Discovering this prompted Cordelia to plan for her escape, and take revenge for their cruel treatment of her.
She graduated high school at age seventeen, and enrolled in the Computer Science degree program at Dalhousie University on a full-ride scholarship. Her student housing roommate is a young woman named Anita Cameron, that looks so much like Cordelia they could be identical twins. They quickly formed a strong friendship. On a whim, the girls decided to an Ancestry DNA test just to see if they were related. Turned out they were first cousins.
Cordelia discovers she had a family. A very wealthy family, that owned multiple business in Canada and Scotland. This family is eager to welcome her into their fold, and encourages her to take her rightful place as the heiress to her late mother's estate.
Claiming her rightful place in her true family, Cordelia was determined to seek revenge on her tormentors, and ensure they were made to pay for their crimes. She hoped that in the process of seeking revenge, the man she secretly loved would learn to love her back.
