The food Jaxon and Ruby were having for dinner didn't sit well with Ruby. Nothing seemed to entice these days. She was really nauseous and if she took another bite, she was sure she was going to throw it all up. Her stomach was basically at her throat so eating had become quite the hassle. And the pain she was feeling didn't help her feel any better."Something wrong with the food?" Jaxon asked, a brow raised as he popped a piece of meat into his mouth."Everything is." She sighed. She had been pushing the food around her plate for a few minutes now."So you want something else?... Are you okay, you look a bit unwell, is it the meat?" The space between Jaxon's brows furrowed as he asked her."It's not... Maybe... I don't know. I'm just feeling a bit of pain in my stomach." She told him, and as if to make a point, a sharp pain stung just below her belly button and she leaned over and expelled a deep breath."Gem?" Jaxon's voice wobbled out."Just... Give me a moment." She took deep br
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO Ruby
"Get ready to pick up your sister's corpse the next time you come to the hospital!" The voice from the other end of the line barked at Ruby, causing a cold shiver to run down her back. "Wha-what?" Ruby muttered. "What do you mean by corpse?"""I'm afraid your sister's treatment has been put on hold due to unpaid bills, Miss Ruby." The nurse replied with a much sharper tone now.Ruby sighed, tears welling up in her eyes. "Please, I'm begging. Don't take her off treatment, you know she needs it, Ma'am""If you think I'd keep giving her drugs and injections when you are yet to pay the money you owe the hospital, and risk losing my job, then you need to have a rethink, Miss Ruby!""I'll try to pay up, just don't abandon her in that state, please""My hands are tied. You need to pay before anything else can be done. Do you want to see her dead?""No!" Ruby cried out."Then, pay your debt so we can resume treatment on her!" With that, the call ended..Tears streamed freely out of Ruby's
Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO married to a stranger
Chapter 2"Tell me, Ruby!" The male voice behind her said, "Are you selectively deaf? I'm certain you heard me quite well."Slowly, she swung around to face the man. There was an obvious look of disdain on his face. He raised a finger and flicked it at her, urging her to edge close to him. Ruby was stunned, barely able to believe what was happening. Did he just agree to make her his wife in exchange for any money she requests for? She was at a loss at whether to cry or smile, rather she remained numb, staring down at the man. "If we will pull this off, you need to stop acting like an aged donkey!" The man snapped.She nodded. "I asked earlier, what gave you the courage to approach me?" "You look like a man in need of a wife," Ruby stated bluntlyThe man frowned. He cast a glance at his wristwatch, and let out a long hiss. She was right. He needed a wife. The woman he had agreed with to sign the documents with him had stood him up, even after he explained how important it was.

Chapter 3"Don't give me that look!" Jaxon said sharply as he shoved his phone into his pockets. "You look like you've just seen a ghost!"Ruby swallowed hard. "Don't you want to leave? Get into the car, let's drop you off at the restaurant""Oh-yeah," She muttered and went in.After the driver drove for some minutes, Jaxon broke the silence in the car. "Have this!" He said, handing his phone to her.Her right eyebrow shot up, "Why?""Take this!" He said with impatience, "Ruby, one rule you must obey as long as we interact is to do whatever I say. Now, get this phone!" His voice was firmerWith shaky hands, she collected the phone, eying him. The other men in the car were silent and a soft music played in the car radio."Now, input your phone number in there." He said.She nodded and started to punch her number in, eager to please him. He had such a controlling aura that left her with no choice than to do whatever he wanted. He snatched the phone from her and saved her number."Wha

Chapter 4"You don't just ring up my line, after making me sign a marriage contract with you and ghosting me," Ruby yelled in annoyance on the phone at the same man she was trying her best to forget.There was a short silence on the other end of the line."I know you heard me, Mr. Jaxon!" She said, more angered by his silence, "You went two weeks without speaking to me, I'm sure you can make it two years" She mocked."Watch your tone!" Jaxon's deep voice replied, "You're my wife now, and you'll do as I say." "I'm not your wife, not in any real sense. And I'm at work right now, so I can't just drop everything for you.""You'll quit that job, effective immediately," Jaxon ordered, "I don't want my contracted wife working in a place like that. You need to be available whenever I desire."Ruby's face flushed with anger. Her hands trembled as she gripped the phone. "You can't just dictate my life like that! I won't quit my job, and I won't be at your beck and call."Jaxon let out a mirth

Chapter six After a long and quiet ride, they finally arrived at the venue of the party, ruby sighed in awe at how beautiful the place was. There were lots of paparazzi around, taking pictures of the people. Ruby couldn't help but wonder how rich Jaxon was, he had an expensive car and had taken her to an occasion that screamed of luxury. Who exactly was he? “Here.” He handed over a silver mask to Ruby who slowly collected it from him. “Put it on..” he instructed as he wore his own black mask. Ruby lifted the mask up to her face as she wore it as well. “Don't talk to anybody and stick to me” he instructed as Ruby shook her head slowly. “If you do a good job, you'll be rewarded” he added as the driver stepped out of the car, to open the car door for them. Jaxon stepped out first before stretching out his hand for Ruby. “Come on..” “All you need to do is smile, and look happy, you're not an old hag.” He whispered coldly to her ears leading her towards a red carpet. “Over here
