The Paranoid Real Heiress

Lucinda grew up on tragic romance novels—literally. By sixteen, she was so used to drama that when her real family, the Zhou family, took her in, she instantly spotted the fake heiress Zara trying to frame her. Sharp and always one step ahead, Lucinda saw through every setup. Once the truth came out, she turned down the Zhou family's money, went back to the parents who raised her, and got into the Security Defense Academy. Now she’s a cop—finally living life on her own terms.
