The Unstoppable Adopted Daughter

Amber Baker was taken in by the Lucia family as their adopted daughter. She grew up sweet-faced and well liked, and the family used that when they arranged her marriage to the CEO of White Group, a man old enough to be her grandfather. The match was about business between the two houses. Everyone in the city's upper circles knew it, and Amber became a joke among them. She went along with the preparations until the wedding day, then tore the dress apart in front of the assembled guests and walked out, which left the Lucias publicly humiliated. They put every resource they had into finding her, meaning to drag her back and make an example of her. The search covered the whole city and turned up nothing, because Amber had gone to the one address nobody would look at. Mike Lucia, her adoptive uncle and the strongest heir among the city's elite, is known for being cold and untouchable. He took her in and hid her on his own property, and he is willing to stand between her and the family.
