They Made A Billionaire Heiress Clean

The year I turned eighteen, the Winslows found me. They told me I was their long-lost second daughter, a child swept under the rug of their vast, untouchable empire.

On my third day in their cold, cavernous estate, Benson, the family butler, approached me with a silver tray and a flat voice. "The late eldest daughter was betrothed to the Crawford family," he said, not looking me in the eye. "Mr. Winslow says you are to take her place."

I pulled my hair back into a tight, no-nonsense ponytail, threw on the worn, oversized coat I’d lived in for years, and caught a cab to the Crawford estate.
