The Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 1
Layla's POVIn the ancestral mansion of the wealthy and influential Torres family, a shocking and unimaginable incident was unfolding.The rain poured down heavily as screams and shattering of glasses could be heard."Mom!" I shrieked, my voice piercing the air as I witnessed a shocking scene unfold before my eyes. My grandmother's face was twisted in a fierce scowl as she violently pushed my mother, her words cutting deep like a knife."Leave this place, you slut!" she bellowed, her voice echoing through the halls. "Oh, you think we didn't know? You seduced my son into marrying you just to inherit his properties. You poverty-stricken being!" The venom in her words was palpable, her anger and resentment boiling over like a pot left unattended.We've pretended for far too long," my grandmother's voice dripped with hostility, her eyes blazing with a fierce intensity. "Now that my son is dead, you'll leave this house with nothing! You came here with nothing, but you've managed to produce

Layla's POVI smiled brightly as I read the message on my phone. "I can't believe it!" I exclaimed, pumping my fist in the air. "I just got the job at the city's most influential club house!"I remembered sending an application a month ago, and they really chose the best time to reply.Seems like fate has finally smiled on me.Now, I could take a loan to pay for my mother's treatment. I heaved a sigh of relief.I hurried to her ward, feeling a mix of emotions. She lay frail in her bed, her eyes sunken. I broke down in tears, feeling guilty. She worked so hard for me that she neglected herself.I became so determined to care for her, to fight for her, just as she had always fought for me."Mom, I won't let you down," I promised, holding her frail hand in mine. "I'll do everything I can to make sure you get the treatment you need."She weakly shook her head, her eyes filled with tears.The next day, I fasted and prepared for my interview. I really need money because I don't want to dro

Alexander's POV"Last night's incident was a mistake and it should be forgotten. Women are scum!" I slammed, trying my best to forget last night's encounter with the waitress. "Why can't I get her out of my head?" I ruffled my hair with my hands agressively. "I hate this!"With a throbbing pain in my head, I entered the bathroom and switched on the shower.I allowed the water to do its work as it ran its way through my skin.I seethed with rage, wondering who had the audacity to spike my drink.The culprit is either extremely foolish or has a death wish. I guess they have no idea who they are messing with. I will make them pay! They will beg for their dear lives.As I stepped out of the bathroom utterly naked, trickles of water coursed down my body, forming a tiny puddle on the floor at my feet.Today is Sunday and it's family time for the Kings' family.I put on a cotton shirt and a denim jeans, and ran to the grand hall where we have our family time.Everyone was already sitted e

Alexander's POVI went back to the club the next day in search of her.I don't even know her name, how do I find her?Surprisingly, it wasn't a difficult search. I think she is quite famous because they all know who I was describing.But I was shocked with the response I got."She doesn't work here anymore." The manager said, his head bowed to the ground."What!" How is that possible? Why? Is she okay?" I couldn't stop myself from asking questions.She is the only one that can save me from this doom."She quit her job yesterday, sir and didn't give a reason." He said, wondering why I would be searching for a mere waitress. "So how do I find her?" I demanded, my voice laced with desperation. I stared hard at him, my eyes burning with anger. I looked like I might explode if I didn't get the answers I needed.With fear in his eyes, and his head bowed to the ground, he stammered. "I…I…don't know sir." She said she won't be working for long, so I didn't get any details." He was visibly

This man is gorgeous. His cold hands on my skin was affecting me in a way I can't explain."I'm sorry, Layla." He pleaded. Awwn, he is so cute. I felt a flutter in my chest as he said my name. No one has ever called my name so perfectly.What is worng with you Layla? I shouldn't be feeling this way for someone who took my pride and left me all to myself.Caution Layla! Caution! I warned myself, but there's no going back."It's just a contract marriage, for three years." He explained, holding out some papers. "You can read the terms before signing it." I collected the papers from him.Shock gripped me as I scanned the content.A part of me wanted this marriage to be real not just a fake agreement.We went back inside. " So what do you say? He asked.I hesitated, not wanting to seem desperate. But I am desperate!"Hum, do I get to think about it?" I asked. "Yes, you can, but I really don't have much time, you have just one week to decide. When you are ready, call my assistant." He sa

Layla's POV"Who are you?" She asked, looking at me disdainfully like I was dirt.I was taken aback. My mind went blank as I struggled to respond. What do I say? That I am his contract bride or what?I just stared blankly at her."Alex, darling." She turned to him, smiling from ear to ear "Who is this…this person?" Alex's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in annoyance. "Get your hands off me!" He growled, his deep voice resonating across the room.In fear, she took her hands off, visibly shaking."You want to know who she is, huh?" He walked closely to me and wrapped his arm around my waist. "She is my wife." He said sweetly, smiling. One would have confused us for newlyweds who are madly in love.I looked at him in surprise and he signaled me to act along.My face flushed red. The room suddenly became hot.How do I pretend? I wondered.I just smiled sweetly back at him."This better be a joke Alex!" She screamed, her face blazing hot. Our parents are already making preparations for o

Alexander's POVMy grandmother's slap sent Layla stumbling backwards, almost falling to the ground. I reached out to hold her. Confusion was etched on her face. "Grandmother!" I bellowed. "What was that for?" I asked, my face blazing with anger."What are you doing with the daughter of a harlot?" My grandmother asked. Her veins were popping out of her head. She turned to Layla. "You think I don't know? I have done my findings. This was the same way your mother married your dead father!" She spat in her face. "Don't be a disgrace to this family. Just leave quietly now, you are not welcomed."I stepped forward, my face burning with anger. "Grandmother, stop it! You can't talk to her like that, she is my wife!" He slammed.I hate when my choices are being questioned.My grandmother gave a cold smile. "Amelia is your wife, not her. Do you want to tarnish the image of this family? Huh! I won't have you bring a blemish on the name your grandfather struggled to build." She pointed at Layla,

Alexander's POVI drove straight to the villa, neglecting the multiple calls from my father. What came over me? What was I thinking, leaving the scene like that? What if she…no, I couldn't bear the thought.I looked over to the side where Layla sat quietly, reeking of wine and raw egg.She looked so pale and her eyes sunken. "Are you okay?" I asked. But she just shook her head in response.We got to the villa and she ran straight to her room, without saying anything.I followed after her, she was about to shut her door when I stopped it with my hands."What was wrong you?" I suddenly became angry, my inside burning hot. "Are you that stupid? You mean you can't stand against Amelia! You allowed that good-for-nothing spoiled brat humiliate you, my wife publicly. That you were even crying…""I am sorry. You stated in the contract that I shouldn't stir up trouble." She broke down in tears, trembling in fear.I stepped closer to her, and she kept moving back until her back touched the wal

I wondered, with a smirk on my face. “I know I have.” I replied.Suddenly, one of our own security guards pulled a gun on us“Seriously, Jeff?” I raised an eyebrow. “You're joining the dark side?”Larry disarmed the traitor. “Guess we have a mole.”I glared at the guard. “You're fired. And going to jail.” I spat.Layla clung to my arm, her eyes wide. “Alex, how did this happen?”I smiled reassuringly. “Don't worry, I've got this.”Larry tackled the stranger, hitting his weak spot. The stranger snarled, struggling against Larry's grip. “You'll never be free. We will come for you, Alexander.”I chuckled. “I already have. You're just a pawn. And let them come.

You think the rat's a hero?”Alex nodded. “Definitely.”We shared a laugh.But as we drove away, I turned serious. “Alex, what if he's not the only one?”Alex's expression turned stern. “I'll protect you, Layla. Always.”I leaned into him. “Forever and always,” I whispered.Alex smiled. “Forever and always.”After the kidnapper's

What could be so urgent?As I arrived, Larry greeted me with a worried expression. “Alex, sorry to disturb your evening, but we have a major issue.”“What is it?” I asked, impatience creeping in.“Our servers have been hacked. Client data is at risk.” He replied.I cursed under my breath. “Get our tech team on it. Now.”Just as we began brainstorming solutions, my phone buzzed. An unknown number.“Hello?” I answered.“Alexander King.” A low, menacing voice replied on the other end.My instincts kicked in. “Who is this?”“You don't need to know. But you'll never see Layla again.” He replied.My heart plummeted. “What have you done with her?”“Let's just say she's...indisposed.” He grinned.Rage coursed through my veins. “Listen, you sick…”The line went dead.“Larry, I need to go!” I shouted, already sprinting back to the lake.Larry's concerned voice faded into the distance. “Alex, wait!”I dialed

Layla's POVThe next morning, Alex and I were snuggled on the couch, binge-watching our favorite show.

Why?”I giggled. “I want to surprise you with a sexy dance for our anniversary.”Alex's face lit up with a bright smile. “That's amazing! But now I have to stop it.”I laughed. “Game on! But don't think you can outdo me.”The next thing, Alex disappeared into the kitchen. I heard strange noises, pots clanging, utensils tapping.“What's going on?” I asked, curiosity getting the better of me.“Surprise!” Alex shouted, emerging with a makeshift drum set.He began drumming, his eyes sparkling with excitement. I couldn't help but laugh.“You're crazy!” I exclaimed.

Alexander's POVTears streamed down my face as I heard Layla's whispering into my ears.“I will stand by you, Alex. Even if you decide to push me away.”My heart melted.I was selfish. I shouldn't have desired a family. It was too much for me to desire happiness with my family.I pretended to sleep, Layla's words echoing in my mind. She deserved better than a life filled with hospital visits and constant worry. But I couldn't bear the thought of losing her.As we arrived home, Layla helped me to my room, her silence a testament to her concern. I knew she must have done research on Hemophilia A, trying to understand the reality we faced.It wasn't as bad as she supposed. I have been taking care of myself since I was young. I let her think I was asleep, but I watched her through slightly opened eyes. Her determination and love were a healing to my soul.The next few days passed in a blur. Layla took care of me, nursing my hand back to health.I told her not to worry that it wasn't as

Layla's POVI slammed the door shut, my heart racing with anger and concern. Why did Alexander keep secrets from me? What could be so bad that he couldn't share it with me? I paced back and forth in the guest room, trying to calm down.I couldn't believe he thought I would leave him over some illness. Did he really think so little of me? I stopped pacing and took a deep breath. No, Alexander wouldn't think that. There must be more to it.I walked over to the bed and sat down, my mind racing. What could this illness be? Is it contagious? Is that why he's keeping it a secret?Just as I was lost in thought, I heard a faint noise coming from Alexander's room. I got up and walked towards the door, listening closely. It sounded like...shattering glass?My heart skipped a beat. I quickly opened the door and rushed to Alexander's room. “Alexander!” I exclaimed.He was sitting on the bed, his hand bleeding profusely. Glass shards were scattered all around him. I rushed to his side. “Oh my

Had she just abandoned me?Julian and Sophia's laughter filled the air as I slumped on the floor, tears streaming down my face.Layla's betrayal felt like a dagger to my heart.“Give up, friend,” Julian whispered in my ear.Anger boiled within me. I grabbed Julian's neck, my hands tightening around it.“You scumbag!” I growled.Sophia rushed over to stop me, but she was sent flying in the air with just a light kick. “Jackass,” Julian cursed, his voice cracked.“Kill me, you bastard,” he spat.I glared at him, strangling him. His eyes turned red, and his face flushed.“She would have found out anyway,” Julian whispered.“I would have taken the secret to my grave if you hadn't told her!” I growled.Here are the sentences rewritten with simpler grammar:“Leave him alone!” Sophia yelled, crawling towards us. She seemed to have broken some bones because she couldn't stand. “I'll take pictures and you'll be trendi

Layla's POVI watched Alex stride across the room, his eyes locked on a man wearing a black tuxedo. He looks weird in it.“Stay away from Layla,” Alex warned.The ugly man smirked. “Why are you so tense, Alex? I never said I'd hurt your wife.”Alex's jaw clenched. “Don't play games with me, Julian.”I felt a shiver run down my spine.“Alex, meet my associate, Sophia,” Julian said.Who was this Sophia? She looked suspicious.Sophia's eyes locked on Alex. Lust burning in them.“Mr. King, you're more handsome in person.”I felt my inside burn with anger.Alex slapped her hand off. “What do you want?” he demanded.Sophia smiled. “We'll discuss that soon.” She whispered something into Alex's ears that I couldn't catch.As they vanished into the crowd, I rushed to Alex's side. “Who is she?” I asked.Alex's eyes narrowed. “Julian's associate. Don't worry.”But I sensed tension in his voice. “Alex, what's going on?”He hesitated. “Julian's not giving up.”My heart skipped a beat. “What else
