CEO of my Heart

Facing a marriage deadline, CEO Henry Wong impulsively weds Ellie Chen, a broke former professional race car driver dying of a wreak she had on the track. In return, her younger brother will receive a generous scholarship -- and Henry will have the enchanting Ellie as a wife, if only for a time. Then fate takes a hand, and Henry suddenly finds herself with a healthy, vibrant wife -- a siren he finds it hard to keep his eyes off of. Henry turned to the other woman who was standing in the room as he clutched Ellie close to his chest. "You have seen it yourself now Aunt Dorota, she is such an elegant lady, with a humble character, and her kind nature is something I will never find again. And you know, she has the strength to match my mother -- she used to be a well-known race car driver you know."  The hug around Ellie started to grow uncomfortable as she squirmed a little. She wanted to move away, but knew that would detract from all the work that had been put in upto this moment so she swiveled her head. Like a butterfly landing she put her head on his shoulder and looked at Dorota. "I'm so lucky to have you, my love."

Ellie was happy to see that Henry had known that she too would enjoy his childhood haunt.  She could imagine herself sneaking up here as a child to get away from her insufferable brother.  It was that type of a nice hidden place where things could be kept dry even in rain. Ellie liked it immensely when she sat on the wooden table under the gazebo like roof.  It reminded her more of a restaurant booth, but instead of a good view, there were books placed within easy reach on the shelves all around them. There was a charged kindle waiting for both of them which strangely seemed out of place.  They both sat down and read for a while. But after a bit, Ellie found her eyes drifting away from the novel she'd been reading.
