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 49

RETRIEVAL

TIARA

That Mrs. Hans had guts; I knew it very well. But the way she said it, although I didn’t think it would bother me in any way, made it worse than I imagined. 

My face grew scarlet. Everyone was aware of that, so she would undoubtedly know that. She was the only person I knew who would be so impolite as to address it in front of me.

“No, he just...” 

But my words got stuck in my throat. 

“Admitted to cheating?”

“No. But he betrayed my confidence.” I hurried to say like I wanted to somehow save his manhood. 

Mrs. Hans uttered a really expressive noise. 

“Obviously. That is how males operate.”

I moaned. I didn’t need advice on how to live my life from a woman who once instructed me to breathe more subtly when I had pneumonia.

“Do you want to settle things with him?” she asked.

“I don’t know yet. Just returned home to think.” I replied honestly.
