Bounded by the Wrong Blood

Synopsis

Leo, an ordinary factory assembly-line worker, is brutally beaten and publicly humiliated after his girlfriend and the factory director’s son conspire to steal his patent. He collapses to his knees on a blood-stained red carpet—one laid exclusively to welcome the CEO of Aegis, the most powerful corporation in North America. A helicopter lands, and the entire crowd bows and grovels in submission. The queen who commands fear across all of North America strides straight past every fawning face. She kneels before the bloodied “good-for-nothing” and tremblingly holds out half a broken coin. “I’ve spent fifteen years searching for you, my son.” Everyone who beat him, stole his patent, and fired him freezes in utter shock. The penniless nobody they had trampled on for fifteen years is the sole heir to a colossal empire. And this is only the beginning of their reckoning.
