Billionaire Heiress
As I walked down the aisle, bouquet in hand, I scanned the crowd—the very people I’d paid to attend. My heart raced, searching for my husband, but he was nowhere in sight. Panic set in. Was I about to be abandoned on my wedding day? I could already picture the headline: Daughter of Late CEO of Nova White Robotics abandoned at the Altar.
Not only would I be humiliated, but my chance to take over the company would slip away, and my enemies would jubilate in my defeat.
Just as I was drowning in my sea of doubt, I heard the sound of a hasty footsteps. The crowd turned and gasped in shock as Mason appeared, looking dashing in a sharp three-piece suit.
His smile met my gaze, his piercing blue eyes locking onto mine. “Sorry I’m late. My suit didn’t arrive on time,” he said with an apologetic smile.
I nodded and the priest began reading the vows, he turned to me and asked, "Will you take Mr. Mason Anderson as your lawfully wedded husband, to love and protect?"
I tried to speak, but the words stuck in my throat. I just stood there, lost in confusion, unsure if this was the right choice.

Chapter: Office RomanceChapter twenty-sevenEmilyI rubbed my tempo slowly trying to relieve myself of the dull ache that was threatening to increase with each passing minute.The office was silent and covered with darkness only the light from my computer shone upon my frustrated face and the bulk of financial records before me.I had spent all day doing nothing but trying to analyze who this anonymous there was.Who could be siphoning a huge sum of money from the company's account for the past eight years under my uncle's watch?This was all too exhausting and frustrating to imagine. The worst part of it all was that the executive team wasn't even aware of all the mishaps and suspicious activities going on in the company, all they cared about was who would become their CEO.I'm the heiress, and no one would take that from me. It was written in the will that I was to take over as soon as I was done with school so whether they liked it or not, I'm here to stay. Enough of thinking about silly people, instea

Chapter: Temptation of KimChapter twenty-sixMasonA new day, a new chance to rewrite your story.The fish-shaped alarm clock rang jolting me out of my deep slumber. I took a glance at the clock and confirmed my worst suspicions— I had overslept again. I groaned loudly, raking a hand through my brown hair before throwing off the covers and dragging my feet out of the bed.“Good morning sir.” One of the maids greeted me as I stumbled into the kitchen.“Morning,” I muttered, grabbing the cup of coffee she handed me. The caffeine was meant to keep my brain active but for some reason, my mind was spinning. “Have you seen Emily?”“Yes sir, she left very early,” she replied, his voice neutral.I froze mid-sip. “She left early today?”“Yes, sir. She mentioned having something urgent to handle at the office.”I scoffed, placing the cup down a little harder than I intended. “Of course, she always does.”Ever since the night out at the club, she has been acting distant and weird, and her early departure confirmed it.

Chapter: My dark secret Chapter Twenty-FiveMaeveIs this me?I stood in my bedroom admiring myself through the full-sized mirror. My reflection stared back at me, pale and frightened for my life and my unborn child.My hands drifted to my belly clenching it tight, the gentle curve beneath my fingers was barely noticeable to the eyes but I knew deep down that something was inside of me, something that would grow to become a blessing. But how do I say I wasn't ready to be a mother yet? Or maybe I'm scared of my mother's reaction especially after she had set me up with Mr smith.I brushed my curls out slowly getting ready for the new day. Still, I couldn't suppress the voice that lingered in my head, shouting and wailing.What am I going to do? Would I risk it all and keep it, or would I make the worst mistake of my life by taking away the life of my unborn bundle of blessings?All these questions kept rushing into my head like a whirlwind. Replaying in my mind like a broken record. For the last time, do I

Chapter: Beyond his liesChapter twenty-FourRobert I wake up to the ray of the sun heating the curtains casting a glow on my wife, Gianna as she lay beside me. Her back against me was like she was angry with me, but I wasn’t surprised ever since we got married. She had always been that way.I rolled onto my side resting my head up on one arm to watch her.“Hey, you are up,” I began slowly, my tone soft and friendly, trying to start the conversation in a light tone.Gianna opens her eyes and turns to face me. “It's hard to sleep with a lot of things on your mind.”I knew exactly where this conversation was leading to. It's been days since Emily, my niece, returned declaring her interest in taking over as the CEO of white Nova Robotics. The same position I've worked so hard to preserve all these years after the demise of my late brother.“ Emily is my niece, Gianna,” I stated softly, still trying to keep my tone in check.“She has been overseas all her life Robert,” Gianna cut me off sitting up in the bed, he

Chapter: The secret is exposed!!!Chapter Twenty-threeEmilyThe buzz from the conference room still lingered in my ears, and their words still replayed in my head as I made my way back to the office.The meeting was short yet draining, full of power-hungry people and tension, but in the end, I was happy it ended on a happy note.Mason standing up for me was something that drove me to take charge and be that fierce girl I've always built myself to be. I swallowed hard as I pushed the door open to my office, Mason followed closely behind me, shutting the door softly, and the sound of its locking felt almost intentional. I looked up at him briefly as he stood in front of me.“Thank you, Mason,” I said, staring up at him, breaking the cold silence between us. “ for standing up for me back there when no one did. It wasn't easy and I know I've got a lot of work to do to prove myself to them that I would make a great—”“You don't need to thank me, Emily,” Mason began his voice low but serious. “ You deserve it, I think yo

Chapter: Her auraChapter twenty-twoMasonWe sat in the car not saying any more words to one another.I glanced sideways to stare at Emily, she sat beside me, her expression cold and expressionless. Her hands are placed firmly on her thigh as she grips her phone like it is her lifeline. I could tell she was nervous about today’s meeting and stunned at my words, anyone would be, it wasn't every day these things happened.Hanging out with your employee to a club then kissing him, then kissing you back. It was crazy.And I wanted to lean in to kiss her again but I still valued my job and my head.Finally, we approached the grand building of White Nova Robotics.

And Kim, the flirty HR Manager was waiting for us at the entrance. She was dressed in a dashing and tight corporate gown that hug
