OMG!!! My Crippled Husband is a Hot, Powerful CEO
Pressured to get married or lose her father's financial support to pay for her mother's medical bills, Joanna Baker, the illegitimate daughter of the Baker family, is devastated when her boyfriend chooses another woman over her on their wedding day. Joanna, feeling distraught, witnesses a man in a wheelchair proposing to his girlfriend at a restaurant. The girlfriend's rejection and subsequent insult for his disability left everyone stunned. Feeling a shared sense of betrayal, she approaches the man with a vengeful proposition. “Excuse me, sir. Your girlfriend dumped you, and my boyfriend chose another woman over me. Let's get married for six months and get revenge on them." What will Joanna do when she finds out the man she proposed marriage to was none other than Alexander King, the heir of the wealthiest family in NYC? He was also the cold CEO of King Multinational, with a hidden identity, Salvatore Black, whose name caused even presidents shiver? Has she just signed a deal with the devil?
Chapter 15 – A gift from his wife
Grandpa Aristotle smiled at her after pulling away from the hug. With eyes filled with rare affection, he gazed at her and spoke softly. "Call me grandpa."
Joanna was stunned, glancing at Alex, who was equally taken aback by his grandpa's strange behavior and utterances.
Was he not the same person who threatened to harm Joanna if Alex refused to marry his betrothed? Alex's confusion only increased when the old man held Joanna's wrist, lifting it to eye level.
"I was there when you were born. I can never get it wrong with this birthmark, and you, where did you get that ring?" He questioned the man in the wheelchair as if he wasn't his grandson.
Joanna's emotions were all over the place as she reminisced on the old man's words.
Alex had warned her to keep conversations minimal because his family might not like her, but what she was seeing and experiencing were completely different.
