Billionaire's Secret Wife

Amelia was a secret from birth because she was illegal; she was not included in the family book and was home-schooled all her life. When it was time to get married, her father wanted her to remain a secret from the world. She had promised herself that she was going to take charge of one thing in her life – her marriage. Regardless of how her life had been controlled so far by her father and stepmother, they won’t pick her husband for her. So, when her father had arranged a marriage for her with her friend’s son – one they have never seen, he lived abroad all his life. Again, they wanted a secret marriage. Amelia swore to run away before the marriage. Would she succeed? Mike cared nothing about marriage. But, when it was time to inherit his family business, his father made marriage to his friend’s daughter compulsory. He was ready to obey, so he could disobey later. He would get married to her, inherit his legal property, and divorce the wife – finally gaining his freedom back. But when he saw Amelia, all his plans changed.

When they returned to the table, the awkwardness had tripled, and Amelia could barely eat her food.  She kept digging her spoon into her plate without bringing out any food and didn't respond to any question Charles had asked her.  This wasn't the freedom she had bargained for.  One minute she felt free, and now she had a husband breathing on her every second.

 

Christie noticing that the blind date was already a disaster forced a smile, "I think we call it off today. We can meet some other time, right?" Her gaze was focused on Maroon, who was quick to agree with her, as he wanted to meet the lady again.  He had always detested blind dates but there was something about Christie. She wasn't as beautiful as her friend, but beauty had never been what interested him in a woman.

 

"What do you say, Amelia? Should we meet some other time?" Charles asked, staring at her with hope in his eyes.
