The billionaire and his contract wife

Mr. Edwards Quinn stormed into his office, seething after a heated argument with his father, who had issued an ultimatum: marry within a month, or lose his position as CEO. Known for his carefree lifestyle and reputation as a playboy, Quinn was hardly ready to settle down. However, his career and status were on the line, so he decided to take drastic measures—even if that meant faking a marriage. After being turned down by several of his ex-girlfriends, Quinn turned to his last option: his assistant, Annabelle. She had been loyal, professional, and entirely unassuming—a perfect candidate to act as his “wife.” Without giving her a chance to process, he summoned her and threw a document across his desk, demanding she sign it. What he didn’t realize was that Annabelle had a hidden life and a past he knew nothing about. Annabelle picked up the contract and saw the bold title: Marriage Contract. Shocked and confused, she looked up at her boss. She had secretly harbored feelings for Quinn but had never expected something like this. She hesitated, yet couldn’t ignore the opportunity to be close to him, even if it was under false pretenses. Taking a deep breath, she signed the document, setting her sights on making him fall for her during their time together. Little did she know she was stepping into a dangerous game with a man known for his cold heart and disregard for others’ feelings. Can Annabelle’s warmth melt Quinn’s icy exterior? Will her secret identity unravel as she navigates this web of deception? And what will happen when the line between pretense and reality begins to blur? Dive into this thrilling story to find out!

Swirling thoughts

Annabelle nodded, understanding the boundaries they had set for themselves. She knew their relationship was complicated, built on more than just physical attraction. She had agreed to this arrangement, even though she couldn't deny feelings inside her. But for now, she would respect the rules they had established.

"Let's go have dinner,the meal has been served," Edward said to her. She quickly moved to the bedroom to discover the food set on the table.

The meal arrived while she was still inside the bathroom. They quickly sat down and began to eat.

The silence in the room was broken by the clinking of cutlery on plates as Edwards and Annabelle enjoyed their meal. The aroma of the food filled the air, blending with the soft glow of the candlelight that illuminated the room. Annabelle couldn't help but notice the romantic atmosphere that had been set, as if everything was perfectly orchestrated for a special moment.
