Contract Marriage: The Billionaire's First Love Dramatic Anastasia
Damien was strolling into the garden when his gaze landed on Anastasia who sat perched on the bench while delicately popping strawberries into her mouth. The sight was enough to make his anyone’s day pretty amazing. “I want you to accompany me to a party this week,” he announced, hands casually tucked into his pockets.Anastasia glanced up, her lips curving into a smile. “Okay,” she replied simply, a sparkle of happiness in her eyes. He wondered how she was always happy. This happy look on her face always ended up putting him in a better mood. Dear lord, this woman was the love of his life. Without breaking eye contact, she dipped a plump strawberry into chocolate and held it up to his lips. He obliged while biting into it as a smudge of chocolate clung to his lips. Anastasia didn’t miss a beat. Tugging his tie, she pulled him closer and darted her tongue across the smear and licked away the chocolate away from his lip. The feel of his soft and pouty lips mingled with chocolate wa

Harold who was watching her devour the cake with zero hesitation couldn’t resist a comment. “Not worried about calories today?”Usually, this girl count every calorie that she ate. It was as if calories were her enemies. Anastasia shot him a look as her tone suddenly sarcastic. “Old man, why don’t you mind your own business?”Harold crossed his arms, his brow lifting in mock authority. “You are my business. You are my employee.”She didn’t even pause between bites. “Don’t you have another daughter? Go annoy her instead.”Her offhand comment hit its mark and Harold’s face fell as his expression clouded with a rare sadness. “Actually, I don’t even have her,” he said quietly.Anastasia slowed her chewing while glancing at him briefly before shrugging. “Well, she sold her company for a ton of money. Your other daughter’s richey rich now.”Harold’s lips quirked as his tone lightened. “Are you jealous?”She snorted, waving her fork dismissively. “Why would I be? Do you know how rich my hus

Today, Anastasia accompanied Adeline to her gynaecologist appointment. She hadn’t missed a single one so far. As they looked at the sonogram, Anastasia was captivated. The baby’s features were becoming more distinct, and she could even make out the little chin which was an adorable cleft, unlike Adeline’s.Suddenly, Anastasia burst into laughter.Adeline turned to her, puzzled. “What is so funny?”“I think I just figured out the baby’s gender,” Anastasia said, grinning.Adeline quickly covered her ears. “Don’t tell me!”“Alright, I won’t,” Anastasia replied with a mischievous smile. Then, gazing at the sonogram image, she cooed, “Baby, your godmother loves you so much. You are my special little one, and I promise to love you endlessly when you are here.”The doctor while holding Adeline’s reports spoke in a serious tone. “Miss Kingsley, there is something we need to discuss.”Anastasia immediately grasped Adeline’s hand in support. The doctor continued, “You are currently in your twe

Anastasia stepped out of the doctor’s cabin her gaze met the older lady in the waiting area. She nodded politely. “Mrs. Arnello.”Delilah smiled warmly. “Anastasia, how are you, dear?”Since the last time, her behaviour towards Anastasia had turned softer as the dynamics in the Spencer family have changed. “Great,” Anastasia replied with a calm demeanour. “And you?”“I’m doing well,” Delilah said. Her tone was as gracious as ever. “I wanted to send a book to your friend. Would it be alright if I asked Ronan to pass it on to you?”Anastasia nodded thoughtfully. “That would work, or better yet, you could come to our place for tea sometime, Mrs Arnello. Adeline mentioned how much positivity she felt after speaking with you last time.”Delilah’s kind eyes turned to Adeline. “Is that so?” she asked, clearly touched.Adeline nodded with a shy smile.Delilah chuckled softly. “In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony. Girls, give me the address, and I will make sure to come for tea.”She did n

As Gideon was busy making bold declarations, a mature voice interrupted filled with amusement. “Here I was wondering where my son had wandered off to, only to find him simping over a pretty woman as usual!”Gideon turned and grabbed his mother’s hand with quite some seriousness. “Mom, I wanna marry the one who looks like Princess Jasmine!”Giovanni, his mother, glanced past her son at Anastasia who was half-hidden behind Damien. A chuckle escaped her lips as she remarked, “Son, don’t even think about that one. He cried his heart out for ten years to get her. That one is way too expensive for you.”Her gaze then shifted to Adeline who stood quietly beside Anastasia, looking slightly out of place. Giovanni’s eyes widened with recognition. “Damn, is that Adeline Kingsley in the flesh?”Adeline blinked, surprised. “You know me?”Giovanni smirked. “Girl, the whole world knows you.”Adeline smiled politely. “We have spoken over the phone. I’m Gideon’s friend.”Giovanni’s face lit up with pr

Giovanni’s voice rang out while cutting through the tension, “Don’t forget that it’s my son’s birthday. Cut the cake, go home, and then you can all deal with your relationship issues.”The chaos of the moment eased as the guests reluctantly shifted their focus, heading toward the dining area where the birthday preparations were in full swing. Ronan made his way toward the gathering in the dining room where his gaze landed on a familiar, frail figure assisting Niall with the decorations. Niall was laughing and turned to her with an easy smile. “You know, I have been your biggest fan for ages. I really like you a lot. Can’t believe we are meeting today.”Adeline smiled warmly, her eyes shining with genuine appreciation. “Thank you, Niall. That really means a lot to me.”Before she could say anything else, Gideon raised his voice carrying with that familiar demanding tone that he used with everyone. “Addy, can you give me the juice?”He was sitting on the sofa and the juice was on the d

In the washroom, Regina was bent over the sink while throwing up. Anastasia didn’t realize someone was already inside. She thought about leaving but really needed to use the toilet. Since Regina was using the sink, Anastasia quickly slipped into the toilet.When she came out, she saw Regina sitting on a stool, looking completely exhausted. Without saying a word, Anastasia pulled out a small bottle handed it to her and avoided eye contact. Regina raised an eyebrow but took the bottle but was curious about Anastasia’s sudden gesture. A faint smile tugged at her lips at the awkwardness of it all.She took a small sip and immediately felt some relief from the awful taste in her mouth. Surprised by how good it made her feel, she gulped down the rest of the liquid.“What is this?” Regina asked, her nausea easing for the first time in hours.“I experimented with some herbs,” Anastasia said simply. “I made it for Adeline because she had bad nausea all the time due to her pregnancy and so I ke

When they returned downstairs, Adeline was seated beside Anastasia, casually chatting. Without thinking, Anastasia blurted out, “Regina is pregnant.”The secret was weighing heavily on her soul. Now that she blurted it out, she could breathe. Adeline’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. “Wow. Who is the father?”Anastasia smirked. “Probably Abel.”Adeline’s eyes widened even more. Something was going inside her but she could neither express it nor understand it so she quickly said, “I think I ate too much cake. I need a walk in the garden.”Anastasia nodded knowingly and let her go.Adeline strolled into the cool evening air and it had the faint scent of flowers in the breeze. The moonlight painted soft shadows along the garden paths as she wandered. Suddenly, a faint voice called out, “Mom. Mom. Mom.”Startled, she stopped and looked around as her heartbeat quickened. The garden was quiet except for the rustle of leaves. No one was in sight. Brushing it off as her imagination, she walked

“Mrs. Spencer, Miss Spencer is back.”Claire’s sharp gaze flickered toward the housekeeper, her fingers stilling over the rim of her teacup. The words sent a ripple through her carefully composed demeanour, but she did not let it show.She set her cup down with measured grace and asked, “Which one?”The housekeeper hesitated only briefly before answering, “Miss Regina.”Claire’s lips parted slightly, a glimmer of intrigue flashing in her eyes. She let the silence stretch, allowing herself a moment to absorb the unexpected news. Regina was back.Finally, she asked, “Where is she?”The housekeeper shifted uneasily. “She arrived with luggage. She went straight to her room. We did not ask any questions, but… it seems she is here to stay.”Claire leaned back into her chair, pressing her fingers together in thought. “Get her whatever she needs. Make sure she is comfortable.” Then, after a calculated pause, she added, “And keep an eye on her.”She had anticipated something like this. The dru

As they strolled through the garden, the evening air carried the faint scent of blooming flowers and the soft rustling of leaves. Damien glanced at Anastasia, his fingers brushing against hers lightly before he asked, “How are you feeling, Anna?”Anastasia let out a slow sigh before a small, thoughtful smile curved her lips. “You know, when I first returned to New York, I was consumed by my desire for revenge. I wanted to burn everything to the ground. I wanted to kill Claire. And I still do.” She paused, inhaling deeply. “But not at the cost of myself. Somewhere along the way, I realized just how beautiful my life is. I found my courage, Damien. I finally found the strength to come to you and—by some twisted manipulation—make you my husband as well.”He chuckled, shaking his head in amusement. “I still can’t believe you pulled that off.” Then, after a beat, he asked, “Can I ask you something?”She nodded, turning her gaze toward him.“Why did you propose marriage to me?” His expressio

“Welcome home, Mommy!”The children’s voices rang with excitement as they ran to embrace Anastasia with their little arms wrapped tightly around her. It was a simple moment filled with warmth, laughter, and an overwhelming sense of belonging. The family of four was whole again.Nevertheless, even as joy swelled in her heart, a shadow of bitterness lingered behind. Regina was gone. The sting of her departure wasn’t something Anastasia could easily ignore, but for the first time, she found herself truly understanding Regina’s reasons and doings. Regina had chosen to leave on her terms, and in doing so, she had finally earned Anastasia’s respect. Regina’s love for Damien had always been complicated, but at least now, there was honesty in it.What unsettled Anastasia more was that Regina had chosen to go back to the Spencers’ house. The thought of her returning to that place sent an uneasy chill through her. But Damien had reassured her. “She’ll be safe,” he had promised. “Regina isn’t as

As the letter slipped from his trembling fingers, Damien snatched his phone and dialled her number, his heart pounding in his chest.The moment she answered, he didn’t hesitate. “You stupid girl,” he muttered, his voice thick with frustration and desperation. “What the hell are you doing? Come back.”Regina let out a breathless laugh. One that was laced with the sound of silent tears. “No, Damien,” she whispered, her voice breaking. “You lost your chance.” A heavy pause. “Don’t make this harder for me.”Damien closed his eyes, pressing his forehead against his hand as he struggled to keep his emotions in check. “Regina, where are you?” he asked, almost pleading.“I’m going back to my house,” she said, her voice flat. “To the Spencers’ house.”His heart lurched. “Don’t go there,” he almost yelled, gripping the phone tighter. “Regina, don’t go back to that place! Just—just come back to me instead!”But she wasn’t listening. Or maybe she couldn’t. Instead, her voice took on an eerie calm
Contract Marriage: The Billionaire's First Love Let go of him
When Damien woke up, a sense of unease settled over him. Something felt off as if something was missing. Huh, what was this feeling? Anna was finally safe but why was his heart tensed? Before he could fully grasp the feeling, Mrs. Luna entered the room hastily, holding a neatly folded envelope. Her expression was desperate and full of fear. "Mr. Callahan," she said softly. "Miss Spencer left this morning. She asked me to give you this letter."Damien frowned, confusion knitting his brows. "She… left?" he repeated, his voice laced with disbelief. Where did she leave? He saw her last night and she looked fine. Where did she just go? Mrs. Luna merely nodded before stepping back, leaving him alone with the letter.With a deep breath, Damien unfolded the paper as his eyes scanned the words written in her familiar handwriting.Hi Damien,By the time you read this, I will be gone.Not from your life. Not entirely. But from this home, from your family, from the future I once dreamt of with

Rio, seemingly sensing the emotional shift, banged his tiny fists on his high chair. “Mama!”Adeline laughed through her sniffles, reaching out to ruffle his curls. And just like that, the warmth of home wrapped around her again.Suddenly, Rio let out an excited squeal as his chubby hands flailed wildly as he bounced in his high chair. His little body practically vibrated with enthusiasm as he made incoherent noises, pointing toward the entrance.“What’s gotten into you, little devil?” Adeline chuckled, reaching out to steady him. “Why are you so naughty tonight?”But Rio’s wide eyes remained locked on a single spot and his excitement grew by the second.Curious, Asher turned to follow his brother’s gaze. The moment he registered who was stepping inside, his fork clattered onto his plate. Without a second thought, he launched himself forward, his feet pounding against the floor at lightning speed.“Mommy!” he cried, throwing himself straight into Anastasia’s arms.Anastasia barely had

When Damien pulled up to his place, the night air carried a solemn stillness. He turned to Anastasia as he was reluctant to leave.“Go inside,” she told him softly.His jaw tightened. “Why do you have to leave?” His voice was low, almost pleading. He didn’t want to be apart from her, not now, not ever. Being with her made everything feel right, and the thought of stepping into that house without her felt unbearably empty.Anastasia sighed, cupping his cheek gently. “Damien, go home.” Her touch was warm but there was finality in her tone. “I know you could tell Regina you are away on a business trip or come up with some excuse… but I don’t feel right about it. She is sick, Damien. She is all alone, away from her family. And in her mind, you are the only one she has.” She paused, letting the words sink in. “Right now, she needs you more than I do.”Damien clenched his fists, torn between obligation and desire. He wanted to be with Anastasia, to hold her, to lose himself in her warmth,

Adeline sighed dramatically. “And when I woke up the next morning, he was gone. I still didn’t know what he looked like. But I knew it was him. So, I texted him. I said, I know it was you. Then, I deleted all my social media. I told him, If you want me, you’ll have to find me.”Regina held her breath. “Did he?”Adeline exhaled, shaking her head. “No.”Regina frowned.“Long story short,” Adeline continued, “I found out I was pregnant. When we finally met again, he was shocked… disgusted with himself… beaten half to death by my family—” She smirked. “And that was just the beginning. After so many dramatic twists and turns, we found our way back to each other. Now, we are living our happily ever after.”Regina stared at her, almost in disbelief. “You forgave him? Just like that?”Adeline’s smile softened. “You see, Regina… I hated him when I was going through pregnancy alone. The only person who stood by me was my best friend. But in the end, I forgave him. Not because I’m a saint, but b

Adeline had just returned to the table when she heard Regina’s soft and pensive voice.“Hey, Adeline… Have you ever been in love?”Adeline raised an eyebrow, surprised by the sudden question. Regina had been oddly quiet since she sat back down, her eyes distant, lost in thoughts Adeline couldn’t quite decipher. Something had shifted in her.“Yes,” Adeline answered with a small smile.Regina looked at her intently. “Was your love successful?”A nostalgic warmth flickered across Adeline’s face. “I struggled for almost a decade,” she admitted, “but it succeeded in the end.”Regina blinked, intrigued. “Really? Would you like to share it with me?”Adeline chuckled. “As you know, I’m a model, right?”Regina nodded. “I have heard your name.”Adeline rolled her eyes dramatically. “Girl, I have over fifty million followers, and you have just heard about me? You humble me real quick.”Regina let out a small laugh, and Adeline smirked before continuing.“Anyway, I was still in college and moving
