The Deadly Mermaid's Return

Eloise Gray, a wealthy heiress, married down three years ago to Orion Brown, a penniless man from a humble background. She broke ties with her family to be with him, settling into a life of poverty on a farm. Now pregnant, she learns that her father, Hector, who is battling cancer, has finally had a change of heart and wishes for the family to reunite for Thanksgiving. Not only has he forgiven his daughter, but he has also secretly acquired the company where Orion works and promoted him to Executive Vice President—a gift meant for his daughter and her family. However, Orion's mistress, Alina, falsely claims to be carrying his child and fabricates a story that it was her father—the company's Managing Director—who secured Orion's promotion. Orion, along with his mother Dahlia and sister Ophelia, believes the lie. Their attitudes toward Eloise shift drastically—they refuse to accompany her back to her family's home and instead force her into a car headed to their own family estate in Mississippi, intending to treat her like a servant to wait on them. It is during this journey that Eloise uncovers the truth, leaving her shocked, furious, and deeply heartbroken. Meanwhile, her father, mother, and three elder brothers back in the wealthy Gray mansion are eagerly preparing for her return, unaware that she is being dragged away. The family is also reeling from the news that her father's cancer has reached stage three, making their reunion all the more urgent and precious. On one side
