Arrogant billionaire's enigmatic wife

I am not the man of her dreams yet she keeps falling for me slowly every day! ************* With a sweet, normal life and a bright career, I couldn't ask for anything else than crossing paths with a stranger from the past. Little did I know that when he would arrive, he wouldn't come alone but with his dark secrets that would tear through my soul and a life of whirlwind that would turn my world upside down. And with the serial killer on the loose, I would need to protect not only him, but also my biggest enemy- his father! I am Elena Bell, and this is my story of friendship, betrayals, revenge and LOVE! ************* EXCERPT:- I sucked a long breath as my eyes widened. The fake pretentious smile broke as I stared at him as if he had grown two heads over his shoulders. Devon turned to face me again, catching my eyes. With a smile playing on his lips, he continued, "And now that I think about it, I certainly am whipped by your charms, Elena! I am not great with words, and no matter how much I prepared, no words can contain my feelings as they should. So here I am asking you directly without beating around the bush." I watched horrified, as he went down on one knee. People gasped audibly in shock, must be mirroring my expressions. He finally pulled out his hand from his pants pocket to reveal a red velvet box. 'This is not happening! This is not happening!', my chants didn't change anything at all. He pressed the small button with his thumb and its lid opened to show a diamond-studded ring inside. My head turned heavy, and I thought I would collapse right then and there if he continued with that drama for another minute. Clearly, he was not done yet. *********** Instagram: author_rutujap Discord: https://discord.gg/wpyvsh42 ****** The cover is mine.

DEVON

My words seemed to work on Mr Bell because my face was still bruiseless. Elena had already given me a heads-up about how her father used to shoo away any boys who dared to come anywhere near her.

She complained about how he was the reason for her loveless, single life.

But in all honesty, I was grateful to the man for guarding that shining star for me. Though I still believed that I had no feelings for Elena, I was after all an egotistic man who wanted his woman only to be his!

"I can understand all your concerns, Mr Bell. I am not going to promise stars and moon for your daughter. Though I am the withholder of Sanders' name, I still have a long way to own it in my capacity.

Her life will not be sunshine and roses after marrying me, it never was."

He averted his eyes momentarily.
