The billionaire and his contract wife

Mr. Edwards Quinn stormed into his office, seething after a heated argument with his father, who had issued an ultimatum: marry within a month, or lose his position as CEO. Known for his carefree lifestyle and reputation as a playboy, Quinn was hardly ready to settle down. However, his career and status were on the line, so he decided to take drastic measures—even if that meant faking a marriage. After being turned down by several of his ex-girlfriends, Quinn turned to his last option: his assistant, Annabelle. She had been loyal, professional, and entirely unassuming—a perfect candidate to act as his “wife.” Without giving her a chance to process, he summoned her and threw a document across his desk, demanding she sign it. What he didn’t realize was that Annabelle had a hidden life and a past he knew nothing about. Annabelle picked up the contract and saw the bold title: Marriage Contract. Shocked and confused, she looked up at her boss. She had secretly harbored feelings for Quinn but had never expected something like this. She hesitated, yet couldn’t ignore the opportunity to be close to him, even if it was under false pretenses. Taking a deep breath, she signed the document, setting her sights on making him fall for her during their time together. Little did she know she was stepping into a dangerous game with a man known for his cold heart and disregard for others’ feelings. Can Annabelle’s warmth melt Quinn’s icy exterior? Will her secret identity unravel as she navigates this web of deception? And what will happen when the line between pretense and reality begins to blur? Dive into this thrilling story to find out!

Sherly’s Fears

She placed a hand on her lower abdomen, the reality of the situation sinking deeper with each passing second. A new life was growing inside her—a life she hadn't planned for, a life she wasn't sure she was ready for. It terrified her, but there was also a strange, inexplicable sense of awe. For a brief moment, she wondered what it would be like to hold her child, to see a part of herself and Vin brought to life. The thought sent a shiver through her. She wasn't sure if it was from fear or something else entirely.

Sherly took a deep breath and looked at her reflection in the bathroom mirror. Her eyes were wide and uncertain, her hair slightly tousled from her nap. She was staring at herself, yet seeing someone different—a person who was now standing at the edge of a completely new chapter in life. What came next, she didn't know, but she was about to find out.
