Rising From Ashes: The Heiress They Tried To Erase 03

Maia Watson is released from prison after four years, framed by her adoptive sister Rosanna and abandoned by the Morgan family. She publicly rejects the Morgans' staged reunion and marries Chris Cooper, an arrangement made in prison. Maia returns to the Morgan estate for her grandmother's bracelet, leading to a physical confrontation where she asserts her independence. She later reveals her secret identity as MCN's head designer, Eileen Vaughn, getting Rosanna and her friend blacklisted. Maia rejects her ex-fiancé Vince Ward, who still tries to control her. At a family dinner, Rosanna fakes an injury to frame Maia, but Maia exposes her with hidden camera footage, forcing Jarrod to punish Rosanna. Rosanna then directs Maia to a dangerous black market for the bracelet. There, Maia, demonstrating her sharp skills, exposes a liquor shop selling fake goods, impressing a powerful underworld figure, Maxwell Payne, while Chris secretly observes.
