Shantelle fully knows that she is the unloved daughter of her whole family. She has been proving herself to them all her life just so they can finally love and accept her. But all the things she did and sacrificed in the past were still not enough for that love and acceptance to happen. Just when she was ready to give up and just choose to live alone without her family, her mother came up again with something to ask and force her to do, and that is to marry a Billionaire. A Billionaire who can help their business to prosper and be known all over the world. She tried to escape on the night of their engagement party but was unsuccessful that's why she had no choice but to enter into a contract marriage offered to her by the mysterious, heartless but handsomely cold Billionaire – Stefano Vanderbilt. Their agreement was that their marriage would only last for three years and then Stefano would help her escape and hide from her family after that. But fate turned playful on them because months passed and they realized that they were starting to have feelings for each other. Shantelle thought that she would finally be happy with her husband and their marriage, but she was wrong, especially when she learned his most hidden secret that will destroy her trust and love for him.

Make sure no one finds out about this, especially our parents, because otherwise, you will pay me one hundred million as stated in the contract," he said after one of his men took the pen and the contract from the table right after I signed it as if I'm going to tear it up if they don't take it right away from me.After he spoke, my attention quickly turned to him. My heart beat faster because of what I just heard.What the?! One hundred million?! Is he serious?! Where will I get one hundred million if our parents suddenly find out about all of this?!When he saw the surprise on my face, he smirked, still not taking his eyes off of me as if challenging me."You don't have to worry because when our agreement is already over without them knowing all the truth, I will give you one hundred million," he confidently answered that it just seemed like a very small amount of m
I don't know what to do or what to say, especially when he finally gets close to me. He was just looking at me seriously, his face showing no other expression while his hands were in the both pockets of his black slacks. I also don't know why the whole surroundings suddenly went silent inside my head, as if it was just the two of us here. My lips remained parted while I was still staring at him, trying to look closely at his features. Even if I am already wearing heels, he's still taller than me. He has thick brows, mysterious green eyes, a perfect nose, kissable lips, and a perfect jaw. Wearing a dark and manly tuxedo, he's immaculately handsome. I think he has a foreign blood. I just noticed that he has long hair that is tied up right now that suited him very well. I didn't notice that earlier in the hospital because he was wearing a surgical hair net. I suddenly had trouble breathing as I stared at him. He was too perfect on the outside that it really looked so unbelievable. "
I felt a strong force from my cheek that's why I woke up abruptly and regained my consciousness as if I had just come out of a nightmare. Before I could even completely open my eyes to look around, I heard mommy's voice from beside me which suddenly made my sleepiness vanish."Enough of your drama and get up now before I slap you again, Shantelle! We have something more important to go to than this bullshit of yours!" she said angrily and before I could answer her, I heard someone from mommy's back."I'm sorry, Mrs. Zimmerman, but she can't leave the hospital yet. She still needs to rest. It hadn't even been an hour since she was brought here and had an accident." A man said that I was sure was a doctor because he was wearing a surgical hair net and a lab coat. I didn't immediately notice him earlier when I woke up even though he was taller than mommy. I'm not sure if he had been here for a while and had seen and heard everything or if he just entered quietly that's why I didn't im
"Don't you dare turn your back at me you ungrateful woman!" I heard a loud scream from behind me.It echoed throughout the mansion and I stopped in my tracks because of it. "Come back here! I'm still talking to you! Don't be fucking rude, you child!" she added in an angry voice all that's missing is for her to curse at me.I automatically bit my lower lip to hold back the tears that had been threatening to stream down from my eyes. To further control the tears that were welling up in my eyes, I clenched my fists as my chest gradually tightened from the excessive restraint."You have absolutely no manners, even before! You are such a disrespectful person! Face me now, Shantelle!" she shouted again and before I could take a deep breath to prepare for facing her again, I suddenly felt her tight grip on my right arm.She violently forced me to face her and as I expected, her palm quickly landed on my left cheek. The force of the slap she made sent me crashing down to the floor.I couldn'
