Neglected Wife_ Hidden Heiress's Cold Revenge 29

Eliana Heath is a toptier neuroscience scientist trapped in a loveless arranged marriage. For three years, she has been treated as a political bargaining chip by two powerful wealthy families. Her husband Hayes Vargas is blinded by false tenderness and keeps sheltering Felicity Branch, a scheming widow who has stolen Eliana’s precious keepsake and falsely claimed to be his childhood savior. After witnessing her husband protecting Felicity on a rainy funeral night, Eliana completely abandons her illusions and decides to file for divorce. She refuses huge family wealth and only wants to retrieve her own scientific research achievements and personal dignity. While hiring the sharpminded lawyer Talia Winters for legal support, Eliana secretly restarts her core neural regeneration research project and guards her valuable medical patents. Elnar Santos, the nominal heir of the Santos family, stands firmly on her side. Though he carries huge family secrets, he has silently guarded Eliana for many years and opposes the cruel matriarch who treats juniors as transaction tools. The old matriarch manipulates all parties behind the scenes, uses Felicity to create conflicts, and tries to lock Eliana inside the family cage forever. Slander online attacks, laboratory sabotage and personal threats come one after another. Eliana fights back stepbystep with solid evidence and professional strength. She exposes Felicity’s fake identity to the public and wins recognition from top investment institutions. Hayes gradually wakes up to all the lies and falls into deep remorse. When Felicity falls into desperation and creates a dangerous laboratory crisis, Hayes sacrifices himself to shield Eliana. In the end, Eliana breaks free from both the hollow marriage and family control. She builds her independent global research center, achieves brilliant career success, and gains equal sincere affection without relying on any powerful man.
