Not By Blood, Crowned by Love

Evelyn Hodge is turning twenty-three, and at her birthday party a young woman named Claire Crawford pushes into the room and says that she, not Evelyn, is Abigail Hodge's biological daughter. Claire lifts her hair to show a butterfly-shaped birthmark on her back. Abigail calls in a doctor, the parentage test confirms it, and Claire is brought into the household. Abigail does not turn Evelyn out. She keeps both daughters and keeps saying so in public. Claire wants the family's money and the position of heir, and she works at it steadily, staging incidents, driving campaigns against the Hodges online, accusing the couple who raised her of mistreatment, and bringing her biological father around to make scenes. Evelyn answers with her own work at the company, and her mother and her brother Wen Xubai back her without wavering. She ends up confirmed as heir to the Hodge group. Claire's last move involves a knife and a wounded person, and it puts her in prison.
