My Fortune Angel Made Me a Queen

Sophia is five months pregnant and her husband William Sterling hasn't shown up once. He is too busy playing devoted lover to Vanessa, his mistress, who is pregnant too. When William finally appears, he doesn't come with an apology. He slides a document across the table—a cord blood donation consent form. Vanessa has a severe immune condition, he explains, and Sophia's baby could save her. He offers a million dollars. Sophia refuses. That is when her unborn daughter speaks for the first time: "Hell no, cheating ass daddy. Did you seriously just mess with mommy and me?" The baby is no ordinary child. The archangel Gabriel himself chose Sophia after the holy spring revealed her pure soul to heaven, and sent down a fortune angel to bless her. The little angel, Fortuna, can speak to her mother from the womb, and she has a very clear mission—turn mommy into a billionaire queen and make trash daddy regret everything.

William freezes Sophia's cards and cuts her off from every Sterling resource, certain she will crawl back. Instead, Fortuna guides her mother's hand. She tells Sophia to dump every cent of her premarital savings into a crashing stock called Neva. The next morning, it doubles. One hundred thousand becomes two hundred thousand. By the end of the week, they have half a million. But when Sophia tries to sell the jewelry William gave her to raise more capital, she discovers he has already outmaneuvered her—every piece bears the Sterling crest, and the family has issued a notice banning their resale. She tosses the jewels in the trash in front of him and walks away. Fortuna then leads her to a prestigious art auction, where a hideous unfinished stone hippo sculpture sits ignored, opening at fifty thousand. "That's the one," Fortuna insists. "It's worth over a hundred million." The Sterling family, smugly bidding on paintings they credit to Vanessa's unborn child being their "blessing," watches Sophia stake everything. Vanessa, sensing a hidden treasure, vindictively drives the price up. Sophia empties every last dollar—three million—on a sculpture the entire room calls junk. As the gavel falls and the room erupts in mockery, Fortuna tells her mother to find something heavy and break the hippo open.
