From "can I borrow a kiss for bet" to "It was nice sleeping with you" Ethan and Esmeralda entered the most inconvenient marriage of the century. _______ A commitment-phobic and emotionally unavailable Billionaire. That is the reputation that precedes Ethan Westbury. The words cold and distant don't even begin to describe him. An unwarned kiss made him cross his path with Esmeralda Fox, the eccentric actress. She is sure that the billionaire who has more money than emotions is the devil in disguise. Now, the story gets spicy here. Ethan's grandfather's will inheritance clause had posed a great threat to everything he had achieved so far in his life. Get married before his thirty-fourth birthday or lose everything to his Asshole cousin who would stop at nothing to defeat him. Marrying the emerald-eyed curvy beauty is the only option he had. The problem? He is unable to keep up his distant and cold appeal before the devilish beauty. She is everything he hadn't expected. She is like a typhoon, breaking all of his fences and walls and creeping into his heart like a clawing vine. Suddenly, it's impossible for him to keep up with this marriage of convenience when his contractual wife is nothing but an inconvenience with a capital I.
"What will you do now?" Esmeralda asked Ethan as they finished dinner. It was late at night and the answer was obvious that he would be going to his room but she still asked him the question as if he had some kind of special midnight plans. What plans could he possibly have?
"I'm going to sleep. It's quite late at night. I should sleep now," Ethan said as he stood up to leave her room but she surprised him by catching her wrist and he turned around to find her looking up at him and asking, "Are you sleepy?"
To the question, he replied by saying, "Does it matter?"
"Of course, it doesn't,'' Esmeralda answered him with a serious look. "If you are not sleepy, we can do something."
Ethan snatched his arm away and said in disbelief, "Are you again drunk?"
"What are you saying?" Esmeralda questioned him back. She took a pause and looking at his pale and flushed skin, she muttered, "You are looking as if I had asked you to sleep with me."
"Have you not?" Ethan questioned.
