Hello, Ex! I Finally Found My Worth!

They say Love is blind, but no one is ever truly blind in love. We see everything; we just choose to ignore them because we're scared to move on or start afresh. Twenty-eight years old, Emma Winters has her dreams clearly defined. To have a loving family, a beautiful home, and a stable, fulfilling life. Not only do those dreams come crumbling down when her husband hands her divorce papers just when she tells him she's pregnant, but her pride and dignity are questioned when Jake announces that Emma was unfaithful to him. Emma loses hope in everything she believes in. However, hope comes to her when the enigmatic billionaire Alexander Sterling offers her a way out: A contract marriage to him. Will Emma accept this way out of her predicament even when this savior is none other than her ex-husband's uncle? What happens when she accepts the contract and is only chased back by her ex? Will she return to her once lover, or will she accept her growing feelings for her contract husband? Find out as we unravel Emma's story together! *****Excerpt******** “Why would you help when I was put in this mess by my own husband?” Emma cut in, now crying. “Because your husband is my nephew, and not only do I want to salvage the situation my nephew put you in, I want to escape his plot,” Alex said, and Emma’s heart stopped for a moment, a cold chill running down her spine as she replayed the words in her head. Nephew? His nephew? Jake was this man's... Alex's nephew? She mused, and then the realization of what that meant dawned on her like a crashing wave, knocking the breath from her lungs. Her eyes widened as she stared at him, the shock evident on her face. “Your nephew? You’re Alex Sterling, Jake's uncle?” she asked, unable to believe it herself. Alex nodded, his expression unchanged. “Yes. I'm his uncle,” Alex confirmed, and Emma shook her head.

Why Her?

Ivy chuckled and said, "Although I've been so unlucky with men, I'm killing it in my career path. You know me."

Emma giggled when Ivy winked at her, and then something else occurred to her. "Wait, don't tell me you own this luxurious restaurant. Owning a restaurant has always been your dream," Emma said, her eyes still observing the place.

Ivy gave a happy nod. "What do you expect when I have no man to distract me?" she said, and Emma laughed happily.

"Wow! This is so nice, Ivy; congratulations, girl; this place is so beautiful," Emma said, genuinely happy.

"Thank you so much, Em. It turns out some efforts pay off, and I'm seeing the results," Ivy said, and Emma nodded in agreement.

"Speaking of which, please, Em, if you know anyone who claims to be a good chef, let the person know we are hiring. I'm in serious need of a chef," Ivy admitted, a thin smile on her face.
