With her little brother in the hospital, her mother working as a babysitter, and her not being able to finish college, money has been pretty tight to make their ends meet. Mason King is a billionaire. He can buy anything he wants being the CEO of the company his father is going to pass on to him. At the age of 25, his grandmother thinks that he should stop messing around with women and start settling down.

Desperate of not wanting to lose the company, Mason hunts for the perfect girl to hire as his bride. He knows that the only perfect woman is Kelsey. What will happen with the two? Will it be a marriage that will break them or make them?

Hired Bride Epilogue
Kelsey stared at herself as she gazed at her beautiful gown. The grin on her face has never left her face since the morning had started. She couldn't contain her happiness and she felt the joy overflow in her chest.Kyle knocked on the door and peeked his head inside. "Are you ready? Mom's waiting." He asked and Kelsey smiled and nodded at her little brother. She was so glad when the doctor had announced a year ago that Kyle was officially cancer-free. Her heart swelled in delight, knowing that her family was happy and complete.She took the bouquet of white roses that was neatly placed on the table and exited the room. She then followed Kyle to the other dressing room and entered. She stared at her beautiful mother in her white simple gown that had some detailed-pattern rhinestones on the chest area. "You look beautiful, mom." She commented as her mother gazed at her with filled-tear eyes."No, no. No tears mom, or you'll ruin your make-up." She quickly advised her as her mother c

The next day the cyclone was still raging, which meant me and him stuck together in the villa. And after last night, I really don’t want to see Mason at all, or his smirk. I walked to the huge study and started browsing books. The only good thing about my husband was that he had huge collections of books. I smiled at books from my favourite author. I took one and curled up on the recliner. As I opened the book, the smell wafted through my noise. I always found the smell of old book…amazing. “I wonder why I am seeing you everywhere” I heard his voice and turned towards the door. He was standing there, walking towards the desk. Unlike other days, he was wearing faded jeans and black t-shirt. He looked almost human but for the anger in his eyes. However, his face looked weird. I frowned. “What’s wrong?” “Why do you assume something is wrong?” he looked quite surprised by my question. “If everything was fine you would have a scowl on your face and your taunts would have been cruelle

“Hey wake up” I heard his voice. Did I hear concern in his voice? Why was everything blank anyways? I felt cold hands on my arms, shaking me. I slowly opened my eyes to see a very angry Mason. He sighed. “The next time you run off, its over.” He said and helped me up. I looked down and saw the bloody hole I fell into. Who digs a hole in the middle of a path? We walked all the way to the house with him grumpy and mumbling how stupid I was. The sky went from sunny morning to a grey dark. “Shit” my husband stopped in front of me and I bumped right on his back. He was looking up “It’s going to rain” he said and turned to me. “I trust you have enough energy to run?” he asked and I nodded. By the time we reached the house however, we were both soaked. I walked immediately to my room and headed for a warm bath. It was nice to soak in bubbly warm water after being in the dirt and running though my feet hurt like hell after my fall. I stared at the ceiling, wondering again, about my lif

It feels great when what one thinks actually happens. Two days since we arrived on the island and Mason was still stuck in his study with his laptop and phone. I on the other hand, had the privilege to tour the beautiful island. On the north was an amazing sandy beach with a myriad of clear blue water and the sunny sky. The south of the island however, there was this gorgeous cliff with huge waves crashing onto them. This island was amazing. I was only able to tour the north and south in the two days. “You are free to do whatever you want to. There is only us and the house staff on the island, so you should be safe from paparazzi as well” Mason had said before disappearing into the study. Well at least that put my mind to rest. I was able to enjoy this holiday. “Breakfast!” I heard the familiar voice call. Ever since we came, I had not seen him at all. When I turned, it was to find the business magnate Mason gone, and a very tired looking one instead. However, unlike the usual busi

"Everything's gonna be alright." Mason reassured her as he took a hold of her hand that was resting on her thigh, while keeping his other hand on the wheel. They decided to cancel their movie date for the meantime and planned to go to the Montenegro's residence before Kelsey change her mind and chicken out.Kelsey shot him a forced smile and released a long breath to calm herself down. They drove to the Montenegro's in peace and quiet. Kelsey felt her heart pounding against her chest as the car entered the silver gates of the residential.Mason pulled over and parked the car in front of the door of the house. They both got out and strolled towards the massive two-door wooden doors hand-in-hand. Mason looked at Kelsey and shot her a look that asked whether she was ready or not. She reluctantly nodded her head and sighed. Mason pressed the doorbell and a maid quickly opened the door for them. "Good evening Mr. King." She greeted them warmly."Is Sir Lucas home yet?" He asked her."N

"Hurry up, Mason! Or else we're gonna miss the movie!" Kelsey screamed at the bottom of the stairs to Mason who was in his room changing."I'll be there soon!" He yelled back, informing her.Kelsey had thought she would never step foot on Mason's penthouse, but there she was at the moment, waiting for him for their movie date that he insisted he wanted to do. It sounded very cheesy, the typical movie date, but Mason wanted to experience it with Kelsey. He had never done it with anyone and he wanted to know what it would be like.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, snapping Kelsey out of her trance. Her brows furrowed in confusion as to who might be at the door. Georgia left about ten minutes ago and Kelsey didn't know who might be by the door. Unless Mason was expecting a visitor she wasn't informed of.She strolled towards the door and opened it, coming face-to-face with Edward King. "Mr. King..." Kelsey trailed off, feeling the awkwardness arising between them. The last tim

Hilda arrived at the hospital right after she finished working. She asked Paulina if Ace could stay there for awhile and Paulina, being the kind and loving woman that she was, agreed. It was already seven thirty at night when she arrived. She quickly made a pit stop at a Chinese restaurant near the hospital that sells the best wonton soup, Kyle's favourite.She stopped by and said her greetings to the nurses in the reception before heading to Kyle's room. The door was left slightly ajar and Hilda heard series of laughter from the inside. She took a peek inside and saw that Kyle wasn't alone. Lucas was there again, playing a board game with him. But this time, it wasn't only the two of them. Hilda saw a little girl, probably the same age as Ace, sitting beside her son on the bed. She was excitedly pointing at the board game and both her and Kyle laughed as Lucas groaned in defeat."We won again!" Kyle exclaimed as he high-five the little girl."I'm hungry, Daddy." The little girl co

After their stroll on the beach, Mason brought Kelsey to a street food fair downtown. Together, they tried different types of food - Korean, Moroccan, Indian, Japanese, Mexican, and more - and they were all delicious. For dessert, Mason asked Nina to get them two tickets at the famous all-you-can-eat dessert place in town. They were bloated by the end of the day but they certainly had a blast.Before the day was over, Mason brought her to one of his favourite place to go to as he was growing up. He held her hand and led her to the rooftop of his grandmother's house."Wow, this is beautiful." Kelsey gasped out as she stared at the rooftop garden. There were all types of colourful flowers and Kelsey was amazed at the view."Right? I always go here to think. It's my haven, I guess." Mason admitted as he sat on the ledge that was surrounded by a fence to prevent anyone from falling forward.Kelsey carefully touched the blue roses and stared at it in awe. "Where's your grandmother anyw

The next day, Mason took a leave off at work and made a whole day plan with Kelsey. He was so thrilled to spend some time with Kelsey that he had to cancel his meeting with a potential client. At the very moment, he didn't really care about his career. He just really wanted to spend the day with Kelsey. Besides, being away from each other for awhile got him afflicted and upset.Mason was buttoning up his plain white polo shirt when his phone suddenly rang. He grabbed it from his nightstand table and answered it. "Mason King speaking." He professionally spoke."Mr. King, I would just like to inform you that everything has been booked and planned as you have ordered." Nina informed him over the phone. Mason smiled at her news and he couldn't help but feel excited. He really wished Kelsey would enjoy what he had planned for the both of them the entire day."Thanks, Nina." He gratefully told her. Nina was about to hang up the phone, knowing her boss had a dismissive tone, but he sudden

Prologue
"Who are you and what in the world are you doing in my house?!" A pitch voice screamed causing Mason to groan in response. There was a stir on his bed and he heard some shuffling.His brain wasn't functioning very well due to his hungover. Maybe it wasn't very bright to drink too much but he was too stress at work that he needed to do something to relieve it. He felt like his brain was repeatedly being hammered by bricks and he could barely open his eyes."Get out! NOW!" The voice once again screamed making him groan louder. He felt the bed resurfaced and he tried to sit up wanting to know what the whole commotion was about.Suddenly the door opened and a blonde girl left with her clothes wrapped around her. Ella came inside the room with horror and widened eyes by what she had just witness."Mason Emerson King! How many times am I going to tell you to never bring those filthy girls at my home?!" His grandmother spat with venom lacing through her voice."Gran, please stop shoutin
