Owned by the billionaire

“What the fu*k does it mean if we’re getting married?” I asked with uncharacteristic awkwardness. “Just as the contract says, Miss Glare! You are owned by me as my servant wife!” After knowing that her mother has cancer and her father has gone bankrupt, Tiara Glare is forced to accept a contract marriage to the billionaire tycoon Vincent Baker. A born playboy, Vincent vows to avenge the death of his mother by connecting it to his future wife. He vows to make her life impossible. Love, however, sneaks into his heart but he will hardly accept that he is capable of such a feeling. Will Vincent be able to leave the past behind? Or will Tiara forgive when she learns the real reason behind the hasty marriage? How will love combat hatred in this romantic love story?"

CHAPTER 16

　　RUNNING LATE

　　TIARA

　　It was time to see Mara once more. She was the only person who would listen to me without judging. She was now sort of caught in the middle of the storm, and all my stress and complaining fell on her.

　　“I’m a fool.” I moaned. “A complete and total imbecile”

　　Mara was lying on the couch and greedily puffing on a cigarette

　　“I don’t think that’s ever been in question.” She joked, putting out the cigarette in the ashtray on the table.

　　“You’re so mean to me! I’m going down with the ship and you’re making fun of me!”

　　Mara grinned wryly

　　“Your life will not end. Stop whining. You’re only getting married to a man for his money”

　　I gave her a puzzled look.

　　“You know it is not for financial gain. I’m doing it for my mum since I’m not yet a well-known enough painter to afford luxury. And I can’t afford the luxury of paying for her treatment.”

　　“Oh, and you thought to squeeze this one for money?”
