Willing to do anything for her sick mother, Mulan Lexington returned to the family that once despised her for help. With her mother's life hanging in the balance, she agreed to get married within a week—only to catch her boyfriend cheating on her. Devastated, Mulan sought solace in a drink, where she met a crippled Kaiser Walker, who was facing a similar heartbreak. United by their desire for revenge, they signed a six-month marriage contract. What will happen when Mulan discovers that her contracted husband is none other than Cross Voss, the conglomerate heir and CEO of the largest company in the country? And with just a few weeks left on their contract, what will she do about her growing feelings for him?

Falling for My Husband 024
Mulan's POV The next day at work, Jax brought in a pile of files and with a huff, he dropped them on my table. “You didn't say anything when I was laying my complaint yesterday." He said, crossing his hands on his chest with his legs crossed. “What complaint?" I asked, peering at him for a while before I resumed what I was doing. “Working for a ghost boss." He spat out, a smile forming on my lips that instant. “I thought you dropped the complaint yesterday." Pouting, I added, “I give it to you, you have a knack for nagging." “Is that what you’re going to say?" He asked through his teeth. He was livid and I had no idea why he was reacting this way. “I'm used to it, I have no reason to complain.” I shrugged, making him flare up again. When he finally got down from his high horses, with a calm but firm voice, I said, "It's not as if we were with our so-called boss yesterday.” "There is no point complaining when the person you are directing your frustration to isn't there to list

Mulan's POVHis question was out of the blue. Well, the truth is, I'm mad at him.Extremely mad that I almost lost my head last night while thinking about his refusal to get a surgery. The money needed for the surgery had been settled, all that was needed was for him to give his consent and then the hospital in Germany would be contacted. "I was mad at you but not anymore.” I huffed, rolling my eyes to the back of my head. "The thing is…" He tried to explain but I didn't give him the chance, as I felt there was no point doing so. “I take your refusal as my inability to convince you on why you need to get off that wheelchair." I pouted. "Next time, I will make sure you have no choice but to give your consent. You just wait and see.” I smacked my lips as the sound of his soft laughter filtered into my ears. Smiling broadly, I said, "I'm being serious but first, let me get dinner ready.” "No, we should eat out.” He countered and before I could give my consent or refuse his sugges

Cross' POV Staring at her with my lips slightly parted, I felt my heart clench against my chest in full force. “Let's get your legs back." She said crouching next to me but I wheeled my chair away from her, grasping the tires as I began to hyperventilate.My reaction was not because I was mad at her or anything, it was solely borne out of shock. This was the first time someone had demonstrated this kind of care and attention to me despite having a family. When my family learnt I wouldn't be able to walk again, they resigned, claiming that it was my fate to be crippled while pledging to be by my side no matter what. Thanks to them, I lost interest in getting surgery coupled with my battle of topophobia. “We got into this agreement because of me." Mulan said, bringing me back to the present.“All thanks to you, my revenge plan on my family has been going on smoothly, why don't you want me to repay you back?" She said in a sing-song voice only to hear the echo of her sobs. Swirlin

Reader's POV Ethan quickly wired the money to Mulan after listening to Freya's tale. If Mulan carried out her threat of informing the prosecutors about her mother's stolen patent, the company was going to fold up. “I underestimated her." Freya's mom mumbled as she paced about the living room with her hands resting on her waist. "We just have to play by her rules until she uses up all her cards and then we will strike. “ Freya said, eliciting a nod from her mother who was also displeased. To clear her head, Freya decided to meet up with her finacé only to be faced with an embarrassment she never expected. Despite honking loudly to get the attention of the security personnel at the gate, she got no response. “I bet he is tired of handling his job. I will make sure Jason fires him the moment I get in." She spat out in fury, stepping out of her car. Since she knew the access code, she didn't find any trouble letting herself in and with her head raised, she strutted towards the ent

Mulan's POV Seated across from Freya in the restaurant, I had my straw in my mouth, taking sips at intervals from the juice which I held. Freya on the other hand was seething with anger. She probably had a lot of things to say to me; well, I had all the time in the world today to listen to her rant. When Kaiser informed me about the tip they sent to my family, I was disturbed at first. I wanted to deal with them in secret but after a careful thought, I felt it wasn't a bad idea after all. “Do you think you will be able to make progress?" She rolled her eyes in anger. Pressing her fingers down on the table, she said, “One of the people you trusted was the one who sold you out, what makes you think you will be able to take us down?" She spoke through her teeth. “I thought you called me here to plead with me." I mouthed with a shrug. “But it seems you came here to challenge me." Rolling her eyes, she tossed her head backwards as a low laughter rippled from her throat. “Oh please

Reader's POVIt had been two days since Mulan met with her family. Since then, they had been searching for alternative ways on how to get more shares before they lost hold of the company but all roads were blocked. Drumming her fingers against the table, Freya's mom said, “I wish we could just kill her and take over the shares." At that instant, Ethan swirled in her direction. “Don't even think about that." He hushed, his expression mournful while Freya on the other hand sulked. She had tried talking to some shareholders in giving up their shares but they were adamant, leaving them frustrated and angry. “The lawyer that came with her, isn't he Percy Rico from B&C Law Group?" Freya mouthed, twirling her hair around her fingers. “Yes, why?" Her parents asked in unison. They both had an expectant look on their faces as they stared back at her. Shrugging, she said, “I should go talk to him in person, who knows he will give out some information and then…” She filtered off. "I nee

Mulan's POVThe whole show down left me giddy with excitement that I couldn't hold myself back. With the way they had acted back there, if I had gone on my own, I would be forced to hand over the shares to them. Thanks to Kaiser's quick thinking then Percy’s presence else, everything would have backfired and I would be at the receiving end. All what Percy said were a few words but they were potent. Now I see why a lot of people hire B&C Law Group when it comes to corporate cases. “Thank you so much." I said, placing my hand together in appreciation. “I didn't do it for you; it's for Kaiser." His words made me roll my eyes as this was exactly the same thing Jax had said at the office just this morning. Anyway, I take their assistance as one of the benefits one gets from being associated with Kaiser.“Can you run a company?" Percy asked out of the blue, causing me to snap my head in his direction.My response to this was negative.Not only that, it reminded me of my father's word

Mulan's POV During lunch break as usual, I sat behind my computer searching for a temporary alternative for Kaiser's surgery. My focus was heightened until a phone call interrupted.Thinking it was Jax, I reached out of my phone only to see my father's number blaring on my screen. “Jax was right." I mumbled, tossing my phone inside the drawer.The next few minutes saw me struggling to concentrate as my phone wouldn't stop buzzing.In annoyance, I received his call. “Hey daughter, it's been a while." He said in a sing-song voice causing me to roll my eyes in anger.Grasping the table with my free hand, I snapped, "What do you want?” "I’m busy, be snappy about it.” I added, anger boiling through my veins. "What about dinner tonight?” He laughed. "I’m not hungry.” "It's just past noon, when it's time for dinner, you will be hungry.” When I didn't say a word of response to him, he said, "We will be waiting for you.” At the end of the call, I fell back on my chair, my chest risin

Reader's POV Pacing about her office with her hands resting on her waist, Freya had an unsettled look on her face. At intervals, she would rush to her computer but after scrolling and not finding what she was searching for, she would resume pacing about. “The chairman demands to see you." Tessy, her secretary said, breaking into her line of thoughts. Without hesitation, she hurriedly made her way out of her office and into the elevator with her phone placed against her ear. “Hey, have you found out the identity of the shareholder?” "Not yet.” The person on the other end replied, eliciting a scream of frustration from Freya. It was at this moment that the elevator door slid open and on seeing her reaction, the staff who were waiting to use the elevator quickly scurried off. Still fuming, she stormed out, "How much time do you need to find the shareholder?” She snapped, her hand stuck in her hair. "I can't give you a…" Too angry to listen to what he had to say

Mulan’s POVMuttering incoherent words to myself, I continued to pace about on the fifth floor as my heart rammed against my chest in quick succession. At this point, I felt like I was losing my mind. The call from my mother's caretaker came in about half an hour ago but I have been unable to act on it. Denver Smith, my boss, had refused to grant me an audience despite knowing how urgent my meeting with him was. Snapping my eyes shut, I pushed my hand into my hair and then began to tug on it. “Mom, you just have to hang on, I will save you.” I muttered, rubbing my hands together as tears rolled down my cheeks. For a few years now, mother had been living with a tumor in her brain which kept increasing by the day. All the money I had worked for had gone for our basic needs and her medicine which was expensive leaving no one for her surgery. When Eliana called earlier, I knew there was a problem but I never thought it would be so serious that mother had to be rushed to the hospit...
