The Billionaire's Proposal: Falling For Her Crazy Charms
"Marry me," he said, his deep voice with a hint of command.
"Are you talking to me?" Mia asked, her eyes darting around the exclusive office, then her nose flared up in disbelief. "You're sick! The nerves you have to abduct me here. And this?"
"You owe me," his grey eyes bore into hers, his hands tucked in his suit pants.
Mia glared at him, "I'll never marry you Xavier Singh. You're arrogant! And rude! And grum.."
"Your mother's surgery bills," he cut her off. "I'll take care of it"
Her lips clamped shut at his words and her eyes widened.
********
Mia Lopez, a 24-year old aspiring actress, will do anything to get into the entertainment industry, without using her body. Her plans were simple, "Get famous, rich and save my sick mom."
After an hate-at-first meet with Xavier Singh, CEO of X-World Entertainment, Mia will get married to the arrogant billionaire.
In exchange for her mother's surgery, she'll help him take over his family's empire, the wealthiest conglomerate in California.
Will this one-year marriage contract signed with no strings attached become a love story?
***********
"Do not fall in love with me."
"Don't try touching me also, pervert." Mia fired back, and he raised an eyebrow, letting out a low chuckle.
"You should get a mirror, you do not attract a man, like me."

Chapter: Chapter 30: Help Xavier."I'll be out in a sec," she smoothened her gown as she said this, then she left her room.As she climbed downstairs, she saw him seated in the living room, on one of the cushions facing the TV and her heartbeat quickened."Hi, dad," she greeted the imposing man and he looked up from his phone, a small smile gracing his lips.The maids were not present, and Mia was glad for the privacy."How are you doing daughter-in-law?""Very well," she replied, waiting patiently for him to speak.Then he sighed softly, fixing his grey eyes on her, "I came to talk to you about... Xavier."Of course, who else was she expecting him to talk about if not Xavier?He continued, "I know he's really not in good terms with me, and he might not be delighted to see me here either, but you can't be see outside right now.""I understand," she nodded in affirmation."I have never seen Xavier look at a woman the way he looks at you since six years ago, and I must commend you for making him love again," Mateo Singh

Chapter: Chapter 29: You're his wife."Yeah," Mia nodded, and Isabella almost let out a scream."Let me see!"Mia sighed, then hesitated for a moment, before showing her the screen."Oh my! It's him," Isabella squealed, her lips quirking up in excitement, "Where's the nurse?""She should be here soon. I really don't know if it's Xavier, Bella. I mean, why will he be concerned?" Mia mumbled, her eyes gleaming with doubt."Because you're his wife!" Bella stated, her voice firm.Mia rolled her eyes, drifting her gaze to her mother, and she went back to sit beside her bed, while Bella paced about, staring constantly at her phone.Then a middle aged lady, hair packed in a bun and dressed in a white gown walked in.She wore a warm smile as she looked towards Mia, "Mrs Singh, please follow me. You can't stay here while the press is restless outside.""Oh yeah," Mia stood up, exchanging glances with Bella."Go girl! I'll be with Aunt for sometime before leaving," Bella probed her forward, smiling reassuringly."Take care Bella,"

Chapter: Chapter 28: Scandal.She dared ask for a divorce? After everything he's done for her? Her words hung in the air, hitting him like a ton of bricks.In a swift motion, Lucas struck her hard across her face again, and her head snapped to the left direction."Don't you ever repeat that again," he spat venomously, his eyes blazing red.Mitchell kept mute for a moment, recovering from the slap, then she slowly turned to look at him again."I'm tired, Lucas. I'm tired of everything. You've never treated me like your wife, except in public. I can't do this anymore. I'll send my lawyer."With that, she turned to leave, but he grabbed her roughly from behind and spun her to face him."Mitchell," he growled, locking eyes with her intensely."Do not test me."His grip around her arm was like a vice, and she winced painfully, her bones crushing slowly."Please let me go, Lucas," she whispered.But he only jerked her towards him harshly, and she winced again.Then he held her chin tightly, "Tell me.

Chapter: Chapter 27: His reputationEven after hearing those words, Xavier's expression didn't change one bit, but his eyes grew colder.He had already been waiting for this, especially after Silas informed him earlier about the news that was released about his company.However, Mateo spoke up, his voice firm and stern, "I'm afraid I do not understand, Xavier is capable of leading the empire into greater success. He has every skill and ability needed."Another burly man with a shaggy black hair and small nose, dressed in an expensive grey suit stood up with a scowl. "With all due respect, president Singh, Xavier's reputation is on the line of tearing apart and as we speak at the moment, the press and media are throwing hounding comments.""How do we then trust Xavier to make decisions that are in the best interest of the company?"Everyone nodded in agreement."Yes! Xavier can't be the president.""Why not Lucas?"With his calm, yet intimidating demeanor, Xavier stepped forward, his piercing grey eyes scanning the room.

Chapter: Chapter 26: Rejecting Xavier Singh.Her gaze lingered on the black exclusive card that was in her right hand for a minute longer, with the other hand hoisted on her hips. Biting down on her tongue, Mia shoved it into her purse, with a sneer on her face. "Use the card from now on," she mimicked how his deep voice would have sounded if he were right in front of her. Stripping out of her nightwear, she ventured into the luxurious bathroom, shutting every thoughts from creeping into her mind. She isn't the type to depend on a man, so if he thinks he's doing her a favor, he better snaps out of that reverie. After brushing her teeth, she filled the cozy bathtub with warm water, adding and inhaling the sweet scent of strawberry and lavender. When she was done, she stepped out of the bathroom, and wrapped a towel around her body and another around her wet chestnut brown hair. Mia entered the boutique- like closet and selected a simple cream- colored laced frock and packed her hair in a simple messy bun. Since she

Chapter: Chapter 25: Pervert.She felt an irritating sting of dryness in her throat, so she shuffled out of her queen-sized bed. With her legs wobbling on the floor and oblivious to the fact that she was still in her nightie, Mia sauntered out of her room and into the hallway. Taking the glittering stairs that led her to the kitchen, she located the large, classy fridge and brought out a bottle of water. Twisting the cap open, she took a long gulp. The cool liquid soothed her parched throat and she exhaled a sigh of relief. Trying not to think about that party and how naive she had been, she left the kitchen, remembering to switch off the lights that had casted a warm golden light when she had come in. As she made her way back to her room, she halted, dreading the feeling of going back to sleep again. What if the nightmare came back? She turned towards the direction of the balcony and when she got there, her feet rooted on the spot. The dark silhouette of a familiar stood by the railings, gazing ou
