"The Man She Hated: or, Won by Strategy" by Mrs. Alex McVeigh Miller is a fictional novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Fairfax Fielding, a beautiful young factory girl navigating love and societal expectations while grappling with her confusing feelings towards Waverley Osborne, a wealthy man, and the unexpected turn of events that leads to a disastrous marriage forced upon her by jealousy and manipulation. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Fair and her interactions with her fellow sewing girls at a factory in New York City. They discuss her supposed engagement to Waverley Osborne, whom she claims to hate and has no intention of marrying. Meanwhile, tension rises with the arrival of Miss Platt, a new embroiderer with a hidden agenda, whose jealousy towards Fair stems from her feelings for Waverley. Fair's life takes a dramatic turn when she is saved from a near-fatal accident by a wealthy man named Bayard Lorraine, who, despite his noble act, later becomes a distant memory as Fair is ensnared into a marriage with Carl Bernicci due to a vengeful plot orchestrated by Miss Platt. The opening chapters lay the foundation for Fair's poignant journey through love, betrayal, and self-identity amidst the constraints of her social status.
