Unlocked the CEO's Chained Heart

Andriana "Andy" Bennett had lived her entire young life like a Princess, spoiled and loved by her parents and older brother. But tragedy struck her family, leaving her orphaned and alone. The Preston family took her in. Mr. Preston, her father's best friend, treated her like the daughter he never had, honoring his friendship with her father. However, Mrs. Preston only tolerated her presence. She had ensured that she would remember she never belonged in their family. Then, there were the handsome Preston brothers, Lucas, who treated her like she did not exist, and Tristan, who had become very close to her. Her life might not be perfect, but it was ok until she caught her boyfriend cheating on her on her 21st birthday. Wanting to get back at him, she dared to kiss her so-called brother, the older Preston brother, Lucas. What she did not expect was that he would kiss her back. Then, that was where the chaos started as she found herself on a roller coaster ride. She was engaged in a day, married in a week, and divorced two years after their contract ended. It sounded simple enough, but it was not. What would happen next?

No!

Damn!

Not again!

He was supposed to be miles away, attending a business trip, but the meeting was cut short. His client had a family emergency. Therefore, they had to reschedule.

But instead of going to his office to work, which was his routine, his feet dragged him toward his wife's cubicle, knowing he would still find her there working overtime.

"I'm sorry..."

He knew he had made a mistake when he heard the tone of her voice as she rejected him. What could he expect when he had always been clear to her that their relationship was just a contract?

He did not date or do relationships. So, what was he doing now, asking his wife out by disguising it as work dinner when he was well aware he had no work to discuss with her?

What is wrong with me?

He did not know what possessed him to ask her for a ride home and dinner. He had never done anything like that before.
