Once a rising star in the Air Force, Gilbert Hayes’ life took a sharp turn after he was dismissed for past mistakes. Two years ago, when his girlfriend, Vivienne Astor, was battling lupus, Gilbert made a heartbreaking choice: he donated his kidney, hoping the powerful Astor family would help his ailing mother in return. Though they kept their promises, Gilbert’s mother didn’t survive, leaving him with nothing but a broken heart. Allowed to marry Vivienne out of his genuine love for her, Gilbert now faces relentless rejection from his in-laws. Once warmly welcomed, he’s now seen as unworthy of their family—dismissed for his humble background, despite his sacrifice. But Gilbert’s transformation from a pathetic loser to a potent legend begins when he becomes the commander of a private legion and the heir to the powerful Hayes family. Now, the tables are turning. Those who once looked down on him will soon be begging for mercy.
