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.
"All the Westburrys that I have met are emotional, "Esmeralda replied. "However, it's just that Selene didn't care to hide it."
Ethan was an emotional man. She had come to understand this with time. Initially, she used to wonder if he even had any feelings. But with time, she got to know that he had a very good talent for hiding his emotions under the mask of stoicism. Whereas Liam hid it under his nonchalance and easygoing nature. Of course, she could understand why they had to do the same. They knew that once they revealed their real emotions, the game was over for them!
A few hours later, Liam was out of surgery. However, he was still under the effect of anesthesia. Once he was able to talk to anyone, he talked a little to his family and assured them that he was fine. His words were slurry because of Anesthesia's effects. The doctor's checked his vitals and then informed Esmeralda about his reports.
