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 53 – He doesn’t have to know
About thirty minutes ago, Joanna was ready for work. Due to the long sleep last night because of the sedative, she only had to catch up from where she left off.
Waking, up, she felt rejuvenated as she prepared herself for work. Also, it was a very good time to catch up on where she left off in the office at the time she dozed off.
Meeting Alex's extended family was now out of the way and what mattered now was focusing on meeting her target to get back not only her mother's shares but the company as well.
As she descended the stairs, it was still early, and the chef had not yet started cooking, which worked in her favor.
She could leave without Betty insisting she have breakfast. However, as she reached the door, it opened before her hand touched it.
"Good morning, ma'am, are you ready for work?" Jack asked politely, avoiding her gaze.
