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.
"Ethan?" Esmeralda softly called his name. He looked up at her gingerly. She took a step inside his room and added, "Did I hurt your feelings?"
"Why would you think so?" Ethan asked her. He was feeling some heavy emotions but he didn't exactly know what those emotions were. Perhaps, he knew what those emotions were but he didn't want to name them.
She walked to him and sat on the edge of the bed. Tenderly, she wrapped her arms around his back and whispered while putting her head against his shoulders, "I don't know why you are feeling bad. But I apologize if it's because of me." Taking a small pause she went on to add, "If there is something that I can do please tell me."
