Our Accidental Forever
I never expected my life to change so drastically. One moment, I was a woman with dreams, deeply in love with a man I thought I’d spend my life with. The next, I was betrayed and heartbroken, walking in on him cheating without a hint of remorse. That night, overwhelmed with pain and too much alcohol, I made a reckless decision, a one-night stand with a stranger who, to my shock, turned out to be my new boss. Arec, the vice president of Denco Groups, was desperate. To secure his future as CEO, he needed a wife, and in a twist of fate, he offered me a contract marriage. It sounded absurd, but his desperation mirrored my own need to escape the wreckage of my life. It was supposed to be simple: no emotions, no strings attached. A business arrangement, nothing more. I thought I could handle it, that I could keep my heart out of it. I was wrong. What started as a deal quickly spiraled into something far more complicated. As our fake marriage blurred into real feelings, the world around us began to close in. Disapproving family, old enemies, buried secrets, scheming rivals, and even an attempt on my life threatened to tear us apart. This is my story, a journey of heartbreak, unexpected love, and a fight to protect what we built together. In a world filled with lies and deceit, can a marriage born out of necessity become something real? --- Warning: This book contains mature themes. Join my Discord server: https://discord.gg/NJJKETf4
The Grandmother’s Plan
Joanna POV:
Joanna walked up the steps to the Weston estate, her heart pounding with a mix of anticipation and excitement. She smoothed down her dress, making sure every detail was perfect.
It was always important to make a good impression on Arec's grandmother, especially now that things were finally moving in the direction she had hoped for so long.
The door was opened by one of the household staff, who greeted her with a respectful nod before ushering her inside. The grand foyer, with its marble floors and glittering chandelier, was as imposing as ever, but Joanna had long since gotten used to its grandeur. Today, however, everything felt a little more significant, a little more loaded with meaning.
She was here for a reason.
"Arec's grandmother is in the parlor, Miss Joanna," the servant said, leading her through the opulent halls. Joanna followed, her mind racing with thoughts of what was to come.
