From "can I borrow a kiss for bet" to "It was nice sleeping with you" Ethan and Esmeralda entered the most inconvenient marriage of the century. _______ A commitment-phobic and emotionally unavailable Billionaire. That is the reputation that precedes Ethan Westbury. The words cold and distant don't even begin to describe him. An unwarned kiss made him cross his path with Esmeralda Fox, the eccentric actress. She is sure that the billionaire who has more money than emotions is the devil in disguise. Now, the story gets spicy here. Ethan's grandfather's will inheritance clause had posed a great threat to everything he had achieved so far in his life. Get married before his thirty-fourth birthday or lose everything to his Asshole cousin who would stop at nothing to defeat him. Marrying the emerald-eyed curvy beauty is the only option he had. The problem? He is unable to keep up his distant and cold appeal before the devilish beauty. She is everything he hadn't expected. She is like a typhoon, breaking all of his fences and walls and creeping into his heart like a clawing vine. Suddenly, it's impossible for him to keep up with this marriage of convenience when his contractual wife is nothing but an inconvenience with a capital I.
"Are you still angry?" Ethan asked Esmeralda. Her petite face turned red and he knew that it wasn't just the cold wind falling on her face but the anger shining there. He had to agree that Ivy really had a talent for making anyone mad at her. The girl was fire and whoever tried to control her would surely get burned and he really wondered sometimes how Fox parents handled someone like Ivy and Esmeralda.
He held her cold hand in his warm one and tried to make her look at him.
Esmeralda turned to look at him angrily and pulled away the hand that he was holding. "Did this have anything to do with you?"
She had a big intuition that the workshop thing was lie that Ivy was feeding her. As the boss of the company, Ethan might have a hand in it. She knew what kind of person Ivy was. Ivy had no sense of morality and ethics. She wouldn't think before using Ethan and his influence. And the girl had the power of influencing just anyone.
