My Boyfriend Used Me as Collateral-The Prince Is My Brother

Emma Hartley lives a double life—by day, a quiet fish market worker; in truth, the hidden heiress of the powerful Hartley family. When her boyfriend, Nathan, sacrifices her hand to repay a massive debt, Emma realizes just how disposable she is to the people she once trusted. But what no one knows is that the so-called “Prince of Winterhaven” behind the debt—Lucas Hartley—is actually her younger brother. As her identity is revealed, the tables turn in an instant. Betrayal becomes humiliation, and those who once looked down on her are forced to kneel. Behind the chaos lies a deeper conspiracy within the Hartley family—one that threatens to destroy everything. Returning from exile, Emma must reclaim her power, expose the truth, and decide whether to protect her reckless brother… or let him fall. In a world ruled by money, power, and deception, underestimating her may be the biggest mistake of all.
