“You think I'd stoop so low to fuck servants like you do?" He yelled— Oh, but he did! Hear me out, Thane Moneau, an enigmatic billionaire, gets tangled up with Lena Hayes, a charming, love-hungry young lady who asks for nothing but to be loved. She's sent to prison for a crime she knew nothing about by her husband, and that was where she'd met Thane; her prison bully. She was released ten months after to find her step sister, Mira, had taken over her marriage. With nowhere else to go after signing the divorce papers, she returned to her father's house only for the heartless man to sell her off as a maid. There again, her world and Thane's collided as her boss was Thane's irresponsible father. Not long after, Mr Moneau senior was killed and Thane was nowhere to be found. Soon, she discovered Thane is actually a ruthless billionaire, and numerous questions filled her mind. How had such a rich man ended up in the kind of dirty prison where she was? Why did he go undercover? And how on earth was he so rich but his father lived in an average house and fucked whores for a living? Also, what happens when Lena goes from being a wife to Adrian Devonshire, to a maid for an old man, then the personal maid to Thane who hates her guts? Will things get worse or will she thrive when unforeseen circumstances force her to get married to the ruthless, arrogant billionaire, Thane Moneau?

Dante's voice echoed through the large, spacious, but well- equipped gym as he moved a barbell with his foot.Thane wheeled over to the area Dante had cleared for him. And with effort accompanied by a groan, he stood up. "Fuck." He muttered and stumbled back a bit. Dante instinctively stepped forward, but Thane waved him off.Slowly, he walked over to the workout bench and slowly lowered himself on it, trying his best not to put too much pressure on his back."I feel like a fucking vegetable." He said, steadying himself on the bench and yanking off his upper clothes so he was shirtless."You okay?" Dante asked, watching Thane closely. A bead of sweat rolled down the side of his face and soaked his black tank top, indicating he was previously working out."Hand me the dumbbell." Thane ordered, ignoring Dante's little attempt to be caring. Dante passed it over with ease, but as Thane took it, a strained grunt escaped his lip
The silence between both men was thick with curiosity, malice and resentment, as they busied themselves with their thoughts in Thane's yard.Adrian, standing, gripped a glass of wine in his hands as his eyes shifted from left to right, scanning the area for nothing in particular, lost in his head.Thane on the other hand sat in his wheelchair thinking of how wonderful it'll feel having a mini him running around in a tiny suit and tie ready to learn all what he was going to teach him.'It might not be that bad after all. All you need to do is literally get off your ass and take charge of that little girl who's going to be your wife.'"What's your plan, Thane?" Adrian suddenly broke the silence, his voice calm, but there was a clear edge to his tone.Thane didn't respond immediately, as if searching for the right words to say, but deep down, he could feel Adrian's tension.Only a fool would not see that Adrian still wanted Lena, and Thane was planning to make it hard for him-or kill him
With the corner of her eye, Lena stole glances at Thane as he typed away on the screen in front of him, while she laid the duvet smoothly over his bed.Apparently, she still did chores around his room, only that there were now extra jobs, and she did them all while wearing fancy outfits Cecil had gotten her. "What is that?" Thane suddenly said, jolting Lena out of her thoughts as she turned to him. "What?" She asked quietly, standing straight with her hands clasped in front of her.Thane just raised an eyebrow at her and pointed to his other ear, which was out of her view, indicating he was on a call. "Oh." she mumbled before letting her eyes search the large, sparkling room for something else she could do."Did you find them?" Thane's voice came again. "Good, now put them on the next flight to Canada." He said and paused again. "His wife, a good job, and the kids, good schools, understood?" It's been days since the entire drama about her pregnancy, but all Thane had made her feel
"Why do we have to go to your cousin's house?" Mira groaned for like the hundredth time that morning, holding a scowl on her pretty face.Adrian ignored her, pretending to be very focused on massaging her leg that rested on his lap, as the car cruised smoothly along the highway.He really didn't want to answer her questions as they always went through this argument circle over and over each time he brought up Thane.But he was patient. After all, she was pregnant.Mira, annoyed by his silence, frowned when she got no reply from him. Suddenly, she leaned forward and nudged him on his shoulder. "Answer me!" She demanded, her voice raising slightly.Finally, Adrian turned to her, a look of partial exhaustion written all over his face. "He just got out of the hospital, Mira. It's only human to go see him." He explained softly before returning to massaging her leg."Besides, you didn't let me spend some time with him the last time we went visiting."Mira's frown morphed into a mixture of d
The drive back to the house seemed longer than when they'd come, but that wasn't what bothered Lena as the woman's voice from child protection rang in her ears."What do you mean?" Cecil had asked with a deep frown."It says he died twenty-two hours after he was brought in because of the way he was born, and some other complications." Lena felt a sharp pain in her chest, like a physical blow, and she almost physically felt blood shoot up to her throat.'It's not possible!' her mind screamed as she unconsciously stumbled backwards, her knees almost giving out."Please, check again." Lena said, trying to get a grip on herself and convincing herself that the lady had gone mad. "It can't be my Aaron." The woman just stared straight into Lena's eyes and shook her head, her eyes filled with sympathy. "I'm sorry, ma'am." She said quietly."Are you sure of what you're saying?" Cecil asked, but the woman nodded, confirming what she'd just said. Lena turned away, her sight beginning to blur,
A heavy silence filled the air as Lena stared at Cecil, searching for a reaction or any form of emotion to what she'd just confessed. But she got nothing from Cecil, whose expression remained unchanged for a few more seconds.But finally, she crossed her legs, a small frown forming on her brows. "What do you mean?" she asked calmly.Lena bit her lips and looked away, silently begging the tears pooling beneath her eyes not to fall.This was the first time she was speaking about it and she never thought the memory would hurt this much.She tugged carelessly at her fingers, searching for the words to begin and surprisingly, Cecil was patient enough, giving her enough time she needed."The day I found out I was pregnant was the day Adrian was supposed to go to jail." She began, her voice trembling as she remembered the pleading look on Adrian's face when the police stormed into their house. "I'd just gotten back from the hospital and the test results were in my hands." She continued shak
As soon as Lena stepped into the room, the door clicked shut behind her. She stood a few feet away from Thane, staring at her feet while nervously tugging at her fingers. "Yoqu wanted to see me?" she asked softly, her voice barely audible.Thane turned his wheelchair to face her fully. His dark eyes scanned her features, as if trying to find the tiniest quality that could make him believe she was worth keeping around-worth marrying.But he got nothing.She was still that unsure, clumsy, little girl who'd once thought she could defy him and get away with it.'I'll never let you go,' his mind hissed.Thane's eyes dropped from her head to her stomach. It was still quite flat, but the harder he looked, the more he saw a little bulge begin to form.'My child is in there?' he thought, but soon enough, Lena shifted on one foot and he realized he was keeping two people standing. "Have a seat." He finally said.Lena hesitated and raised her head slowly to be sure he was talking to her. She th
"You're what?!" Alex yelled in horror, but Lena didn't try to shut her up this time as she silently prayed Alex would yell loud enough so the child would just disappear, maybe. "Tell me you're joking, Lena." She said, sitting beside Lena on the bed. Lena just hugged her knees and buried her head between her legs. "I wish." She mumbled, accompanied by a faint moan. "I don't want to keep it." Concern flashed across Alex's face, and she placed a hand on her shoulder. "Hey don't talk like that, alright? Besides, his mom already accepted it." "His mom wants it, but he doesn't, Alex. He hates me!" She wailed. Alex patted her head gently. "Hey, we don't know that," she said, but it only made Lena raise her head and glare at her. "Really? Have you seen the way he treats me?" 'How would she know? You refused to tell her that her boss has a BDSM chamber in this house.' Lena groaned and buried her head back between her legs. "I should have gotten rid of it the moment I noticed."
Lena's heart skipped a beat, and a sharp pain shot through her stomach as if the fear she felt had spread.For a few seconds, silence filled the room, and a dampness hung in the air as Lena and Dr. Hailey stared at Cecil, whose sharp eyes were fixed on Lena.'Now, you're really in trouble''She's going to have your head!''How long has she been there?' Lena's head was a mess as every word she thought to say was caught in her throat. "G-good day, ma'am."Dr. Hailey greeted with an uneasy grin on her face.Cecil stepped into the room, her expression unreadable. She wasn't smiling. "Is that true?" She asked again, her voice calm but demanding.Lena's legs felt like they were about the give out and she gripped the bed for some kind of comfort. "I-is what true?" She asked, her lips quivering. Cecil folded her arms with her red painted lips twisted in a suspicious line. "What you said about your child. Is Thane actually the father?" 'Is Thane the father?' The question rang in her head so
A month earlier With shaky hands and a smile of excitement plastered on her lips, Lena rang the doorbell of the large, elegantly structured house. Adrenaline rushed up to her brain, and she felt jittery with happiness as her dirt-stained fingers made their way to caress the flat circular pendant of her golden necklace.She walked over to the window beside the door and peered through. The classy golden brown interior was just as she remembered, but a bit shinier. "Looks like Adrian had the maids prepare for my return," she thought, her stomach fluttering with butterflies."I miss him so much!" She beamed and bounced back to the front door, ringing the bell again with more excitement."Coming!" A female voice sang from within.Lena paused, frowning for a nanosecond. She knew that voice. "How thoughtful of Mira to come help Adrian set up the house," she thought, her heart ringing with more joy.The door opened with a swift movement, and Lena's wide smile plastered back on her face.
