My Undercover Contract Wife

CHAPTER 1Isabella Swan stared at her reflection in the mirror, her hands shaking slightly as she smoothed her hair. She was dressed in a sleek professional outfit that mirrored the style her sister, Irene, was used to wearing. Her heart was pounding with a mixture of fear and determination. Irene had always been confident, a person who could overcome anything she faced. But now, Irene was missing, and it was up to Isabella to find her."Are you sure about this, Bella?" her best friend, Emily, asked from behind her.Isabella took a deep breath and nodded. "I have no choice. Irene needs me, and this is the only way I can find out what happened to her."It had been two weeks since Irene announced her engagement to Rudolf, a man Isabella knew was bad news. She had seen the bruises on Irene's arms, the fear in her eyes. And then, just like that, Irene disappeared. Phone calls went unanswered, and her apartment was untouched. Desperation led Isabella to make a drastic decision: she would a

CHAPTER 3After waiting for fifteen minutes, Rose finally woke up. She tried to calm herself down and saw Isabella and her husband, Ben, sitting waiting for her. Sighing, Rose finally started the conversation."If Irene and Rudolf no longer live in the apartment, where are they now?"Ben and Isabella exchanged glances, neither of them had any idea about Irene's whereabouts who seemed to have disappeared into thin air two weeks after they announced their engagement.Then, Isabella tried to take charge of this situation. "I'll look for Irene, you don't have to think about it too much, Mom."Isabella already knew that her mother had a history of heart disease that could be life-threatening, and at any time could make Rose die. Isabella did not want anything bad to happen to her parents. She looked at Rose, then gently grasped her mother's hand. While nodding her head, Isabella tried to reassure her mother that everything would be fine."I'll find Irene, Mom."Rose smiled a little, she fe

CHAPTER 5After struggling for several hours in Irene's office, Isabella began to feel tired of her disguise. She opened all the folders on her laptop, but found nothing. There was only one secret folder that was locked, and Isabella didn't know the password to it."Hey?"Nicholas's voice approached her, making Isabella gasp. "Yes?""Want to have lunch together?"Isabella blinked her eyes, she looked confused. Had the situation been changed and she was not in the guise of Irene, Isabella would have said 'yes' immediately. Who would refuse an offer of lunch from a handsome man like Nicholas? But fate had a different story."Sorry, but it looks like I have to do some work here," Isabella said.Felix stood up from his desk, then approached Nicholas. While looking at Isabella, he said, "Let him do whatever. You can have lunch with me."Nicholas smiled and shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "All right. See you later, Irene."After the two of them left, Isabella was trying to find inform

CHAPTER 7Isabella sat at a square table, where she sat next to Felix, while Nicholas and a partner named John, sat in front of them. It had been fifteen minutes since they had sat down together to talk business and Isabella had no idea what they were talking about. But to disguise her ignorance, Isabella was busy with her iPad, taking notes on everything Felix and Nicholas said.Isabella's eyes occasionally peeked behind the Ipad, looking at Nicholas who looked handsome. And Isabella felt that Nicholas was very suitable for the character in the novel she was writing."So, the acquisition of this company can only happen in the next two months?" That was Felix's voice, he sounded unhappy with the reality he had to face now.Nicholas, as the lawyer of Felix's company, tried to mediate the conversation. "According to the law, if you have signed a contract, you must immediately hand over the assets and ownership of your company to Alpha Company, sir."John sighed, he was an inconsistent f

CHAPTER 9"This is your house?"Isabella nodded her head. She looked down once more, then pulled the bag from the dashboard of the car. "Thank you for driving me, Mr. Kingston."Felix looked at Isabella, she looked glum and avoided his gaze as she moved out of the car. The man could only remain silent, watching Isabella's departure until the girl walked into the house. Until the end, Isabella no longer looked back to make sure Felix was still there or not. And that made Felix sympathize a little. He tapped his fingers on the side of the steering wheel, before finally pulling out his cell phone and calling someone on the other side."Hello, Parker? Yes, it's me. Can you send Miss Swan's car to her house? Yes, I'll send you Miss Swan's address now."Click. The call went off. And after a long sigh, Felix started the car engine again, he drove away from Isabella's house.While inside the house, Isabella had just entered her room. Isabella's blue eyes looked around, she found an empty room
