[MATURE CONTENT] “I owe you my life. Tell me anything you want. Don't worry about how rare or expensive it is; houses, cars, money, status, name it. I'll give it to you. I give you my word.” “Marry me,” she said. Odelia, an egocentric socialite, was stood up by her fiance on her wedding day. She ended up in jail and lost her company due to a huge plot by her fiance and fake sister. As if that was not enough, after she left jail, they drove her to hell and framed her for murder. In a bid to escape jail for the second time, she accepts a deal, a deal that might as well land her in the lion's den. What happens when Odelia takes a gamble with her life and takes a bullet meant for Don Gardner, the richest man in New York, and makes him believe it was an act of love? What lengths will Odelia go to win his trust and make him her ally? “What a golden opportunity! I must borrow his power and make all of them pay. I must become Mrs. Gardner,” - Odelia Don Gardner is a business tycoon and a ruthless mafia in the underworld. He's still hung up on his first love. But he had given his word, must he marry a stranger because she saved his life? What happens when he realizes she is not who she claims to be and that their fates had long been intertwined due to a forgotten past.
"What did you just say?" Don Gardner barked into the phone, his blood boiling at this point. 'How difficult could it be to watch over one tiny woman?'
"I think Miss Roxanne is on her way to find you," John said in a low voice, already feeling the chilling air the boss was exuding on the other side through the phone.
Don Gardner's jaw clenched as he mulled over John's words. He had asked Julian to investigate everything Roxanne had told him this morning. He planned to give her some monetary compensation and ask her if she needed anything so that he would give it to her since she deserved that much at least.
She had been his source of happiness at one point in his life, and he knew giving her money wouldn't automatically make her feel better, but that was the only thing he could give her. He had noticed Roxanne's clinginess and dependence on him at the hospital, and he tried to be understanding since her brother's situation was quite delicate.
