The Ashen Crown

Ella, a senior fashion editor, walks in on her husband Nathan and her best friend Victoria on her wedding anniversary. She then discovers that Nathan has been embezzling her funds to support Victoria's brand. The duo conspires to frame Ella for "workplace bullying," leading to her getting fired, publicly disgraced, and thrown out of her own home by Nathan. At her lowest, Ella learns that she is the sole heir of De Roche, an ancient European fashion dynasty. To claim her inheritance, she must launch her own brand and defeat the family's long-time rival within one year. She cuts her long hair short, adopts a sharp haute couture style, and re-enters the fashion world under the name "Elle," vowing revenge.
