Toronto's Revenge Rose
Vivian Lee, the Chinese-Canadian tech founder, lost her career, reputation, and love after being imprisoned for a corporate case. On the day of her release, she discovered she was still under secret surveillance. Subsequently, an anonymous manila package delivered engagement photos, unusual bank transfer records, and a bloodstained maple leaf to her, forcing her to re-examine the life-altering signed document from two years prior. The clues pointed to two people she once trusted most—her former fiancé, now the company's CEO Alex Mercer, and her close friend Sofia Bennett, who had provided professional endorsement for illicit financial schemes. The trial that destroyed her life may not have been a simple business failure, but a sophisticated betrayal orchestrated using close relationships, corporate procedures, and power networks. Faced with the looming threat, Vivian did not choose violent revenge. She began preserving original evidence, verifying financial codes, planning counter-surveillance routes, and seeking out Michael Harris, a Toronto lawyer tainted by judicial errors. One no longer easily trusts anyone, the other will not allow the chain of evidence to break a second time; the two must bring the truth hidden within the legal process to light within ninety days. This is a modern revenge story unfolding in the shadows of Toronto's financial district: roses bloom not with blood, but with every piece of verifiable evidence.
