OMG!!! My Crippled Husband is a Hot, Powerful CEO
Pressured to get married or lose her father's financial support to pay for her mother's medical bills, Joanna Baker, the illegitimate daughter of the Baker family, is devastated when her boyfriend chooses another woman over her on their wedding day. Joanna, feeling distraught, witnesses a man in a wheelchair proposing to his girlfriend at a restaurant. The girlfriend's rejection and subsequent insult for his disability left everyone stunned. Feeling a shared sense of betrayal, she approaches the man with a vengeful proposition. “Excuse me, sir. Your girlfriend dumped you, and my boyfriend chose another woman over me. Let's get married for six months and get revenge on them." What will Joanna do when she finds out the man she proposed marriage to was none other than Alexander King, the heir of the wealthiest family in NYC? He was also the cold CEO of King Multinational, with a hidden identity, Salvatore Black, whose name caused even presidents shiver? Has she just signed a deal with the devil?
Chapter 49 – Don’t be nervous
Given the way the extended family members, including his direct brother, pressured him when Joanna had not arrived, Alex was determined to get back at them.
"Since we have all been waiting for my wife, can you serve our food now? You could all watch us eat, just as I watched you do the same."
It was almost midnight, and they were rounding up on the wedding arrangements, but now they had to wait until whatever time Alex and his wife would finish their meals. Their expressions were not welcoming.
That was a sure sign of disrespect the elders could not take. "Alex," Uncle Dean was about to say something, but Alex shushed him, being in a good mood due to Joanna's timely arrival.
"Come on, Uncle Dean, you were so concerned about me a while ago, and I made it clear that I will eat only after my wife gets here."
