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!

Annabelle the Matchmaker

Cindy and Lily stood in front of the door. Each of them carried a large gift hamper, brimming with colorful wrapping paper, ribbons, and an assortment of toys, kids story books, and clothes for little Karen. Cindy reached out to press the doorbell, the chime echoing through the large foyer on the other side of the door. Moments later, the door swung open, revealing a uniformed domestic staff member who greeted them warmly and motioned for them to step inside.

As they entered, Cindy and Lily couldn't help but marvel at the opulence of Annabelle's home. The spacious foyer led into a large living area where the ceiling seemed to stretch endlessly upwards. Crystal chandeliers hung from above, casting a gentle glow over the elegantly furnished space. The walls were adorned with delicate artworks, and white tiled floor gleamed beneath their feet. The air was filled with a faint scent of vanilla and cedar, giving the house an air of welcoming warmth despite its grandeur.
