My Ex Called Me Mother

Synopsis: Evelyn, the eldest daughter of the Gray family—raised by a monk—was treated by her biased parents as a token for securing connections with the powerful, and was betrothed to Roland, the heir to the Duke's estate. On the eve of their wedding, she discovers Roland's secret affair with his biological sister, Lillian; in her despair, she leaps off a cliff, only to be rescued by Admiral Edmund Lockwood of the Imperial Navy. Faced with the cold and formidable man's condition for a whirlwind marriage— "have a son" —Evelyn resolves to turn her life around: she transforms into her ex-husband's stepmother, publicly exposes her "green tea" sister within the Duke's estate, asserts her authority over the capricious but domineering housekeeper, outsmarts her calculating ex-wife Rosaline, and becomes embroiled in a massive conspiracy surrounding a pirate raid. Once a bride who knelt to beg for love, she now demands that everyone kneel and address her simply as "Mother."
