“One year. Be mine” He said, his breath hot against my skin I should have refused, I should have said no and walked away but he made an offer. 90 million dollars for one year. I needed it to save my sister so I said yes. He was the devil CEO of the town and I was nothing but his event planner. He needed a wife for a year and I needed the money. The rules? There was just one. Don't fall in love.

The billionaire's pretend wife WORDS ON PAPER
ETHAN'S POVSilence.Utter silence.Perfect.My brows were furrowed as I read the contents of the book in my hands, my eyes occasionally widening slightly.What in theㅡThe door to my office was unceremoniously pushed open and I quickly shut the book close, placing it face first on my table, a baffled look on my face.Gabriel strolled into my office, his gaze fixed on mine.“Sorry to bother you, There seems to be an issue and I needed to stop by and talk to you about it” He casually said, sitting down heavily on the chair in front of my table, oblivious to the fact that I was worked up.I refused to show anything on my face as I cleared my throat. “You know you could have just called me right?”“And miss seeing the look on your face? Please” he huffed.My eyes briefly darted to the book in front of me and I sighed. “What did you want to talk about?”, I finally said.“Okay…” he began speaking, his tone serious for once as he made gestures once in a while but for the first time in my li
Last Updated : 2024-11-24The billionaire's pretend wife COLD CONFRONTATION
ALEXANDRA'S POV “Welcome home, Mrs warner,” the doorman said with a bow as I walked past him into the mansion. The sun had dipped below the horizon and the sky had turned into a dark mass filled with glittering orbs. Stars. A look of sadness settled on my face. The surgery went well but she… she was in a bad state. The doctor said that she would be in a coma for a while and he didn't know if she would ever wake up. I had begged for him to do anything, I was willing to spend it all on her, every single dime I had but the doctor had just pried me off him before explaining to me that whatever happened from then on was entirely up to her and I just had to hope that she would overcome it. She was a fighter. Just like my mum was. Just like my mum tried to be. As soon as I walked into the house, I went straight to the kitchen to grab something light from the fridge when I spied Ethan leaning on the counter, his back to me as he stared at the post-its on the fridge. I was lat

ALEXANDRA'S POVI stilled definitely not expecting to run into Ethan here.Okay, so maybe I should have expected him to be here since Gabriel was here but it still didn't prepare me for the confrontation that was about to unfold.Bracing myself, I turned around, Piper hanging on to my arm reassuringly.“Mr WㅡEthan” I quickly corrected myself seeing as we were in public.Right. Don't call him so formally in public because it would lead to suspicions.He was standing there with two bottles of water in his hand and a confused look on his face.“What are you…” he walked over to us, his eyes going over to Piper who was scrutinizing him openly.“Oh, well we came here for something really briefly” I laughed nervously. “Are you here for work or something?”, I found myself asking.That was a stupid question but it was the first thing I could think of and I would take it as it was.He blinked rapidly, a look of confusion crossing his face before he smiled.“Babe, you know I'm not a doctor,” He

ALEXANDRA'S POV“Lexi!” Piper called from behind me as I walked over to the receptionist at the hospital to check in with her when the surgery would be done.I had left the house a few hours back and now I was at the hospital with Piper who was breathing down my neck and trying to ask me questions.I wasn't nervous. She would live. Sage would live. The other surgeries were successful, this one had to be too.“Oh god, what?” I asked exasperatedly as I went over to the chairs in the waiting room after confirming that the surgery would end in 30 minutes approximately.“Okay, I know this is a really bad time but you kept me in the dark since that time. What happened that night? You didn't want to talk about it and you cut my tour of your house short” She huffed, her boots clicking against the tiles as she walked over to me and sat beside me, her short flayed skirt resting on her thighs.She always looked the part, I preferred more simple clothing which was why I was wearing a simple black

ETHAN'S POVI heard laughter. Not his laughter, hers and I frowned immediately.Was she downstairs already?I had stepped out to take a call and also to get some breathing space from Gabriel who was hell-bent on breathing down my neck and now it seemed she was downstairs too.Sighing, I took a breather and walked back into the house, sighting her sitting on the couch, talking to Gabriel who was sharing some sort of joke which she laughed to.I just stood there, waiting for them to notice me and when she coincidentally caught my figure standing at the doorway, her smile faded and she looked down at her hands on her lap.Gabriel also turned to me and he gave me a low smirk.Son of a…I walked inside fully and plopped down on a chair, looking at her then Gabriel.“I see you've been acquainted,” I said dryly.“Indeed we have. You have such a lovely wife, Ethan” Gabriel said with that annoying tick in his tone.“You would too if you didn't spend so much time in my house,” I said with a bro

ALEXANDRA'S POV“Get in,” Ethan said in a monotone after the paparazzi had finished flashing their lights in our faces in their attempts to take a picture.“Well pardon me for being this slow to get in when I'm half blind” I muttered, knowing that he had heard me judging by the snort that escaped his lips.He went over to the other side of the car after making sure I was in then he got into the driver's seat, switching on the ignition.As soon as we pulled out of the venue, I let out a heavy sigh of relief.“Finally…” I muttered, leaning my head back against the headrest.He looked at me briefly through the mirror before focusing back on the road. “Are you all right?” He asked.“What? Why?” I asked tired.“You look like you just run a mile” he muttered with a frown on his face.“Feels like it too” I replied with sarcasm in my tone.“You'll get used to it” he assured referring to the never-tired paparazzi.“Yeah if I don't lose my sight and sanity before then. Depends on which one come

ALEXANDRA'S POV“Nice to finally meet you, Mrs Warner,” A man whom I recognized as the CEO of some textile company said with a smile as he kissed the back of my hand.I smiled at him, aware that Ethan was right beside me making sure that I stayed in character.I hadn't been able to breathe literally ever since I had entered the venue with Ethan, from the paparazzi to the people, everything was overly annoying.Mrs warner this, Mrs warner that. Ugh, did they never get tired? And when was the goddamn event going to start?“So please tell us all about what happened?” Another woman with black curled-up hair asked, her fingers wrapped around a champagne flute.I smiled a bit at her, knowing that Ethan wouldn't answer but rather leave it to me.“Ah well, what can I say…” I said with a nervous chuckle that I hoped she wouldn't pick up on.“You know, I always wondered for days… how did you land him? I know you're an event planner, weren't you even the one who had hosted Mrs Valeria's party? H
Last Updated : 2024-11-04The billionaire's pretend wife A simple dinner
ALEXANDRA'S POVOh my fucking god.Was there a way for the ground to open up and swallow me? Because that was the only viable option for me. I was in a fit.We stood there for a moment, nobody speaking, nobody moving, nobody even blinking, my eyes were fixed on his dark blue orbs that seemed to darken even further in anger.“What? Trying to familiarize yourself with every nook and cranny of the house and its owner?" Ethan's deep voice cut through the tension, his words laced with sarcasm.I jerked my hand back, my face burning with embarrassment. "Oh, no, I... I was just..." I stuttered, unable to form a coherent sentence.Ethan's expression remained unyielding, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Save it, Miss Thompson. You're clearly exploring more than just the house." Then he simply raised his hand and felt the wall, switching on the lights. He was still dressed the same way he left the room but he was now holding a book in his hand.Piper's voice echoed from the phone, still clutched i

ALEXANDRA'S POV “Sit,” Ethan said gruffly as he hauled my bag inside his room. I gingerly sat down on his bed, a nervous look on my face as I studied his room. They said a person's personal space showed their personality right? Then it meant this man was a pure black entity. The room's furniture and items were all black, even the wallpaper was black with gold polka dots. The only thing that stood out was the smaller gold wardrobe right next to the larger black one. “Why did you bring so much stuff?” He asked as he helped me put my bag in the corner. “You said to move in, didn't you?” I asked him with a raised brow. “Yeah, not your entire family. You brought two moving trucks, Miss Thompson” he crossed his arms over his chest. “I have a lot of stuff” I shrugged. He muttered an obscenity under his breath and gestured around his room “This is my room where you'll be staying. The smaller wardrobe is yours” He gestured to it. Oh, that explained why it was a different color. “I don

ALEXANDRA
“It's a massive success” Mrs Valeria namely the queen of this town and the proud CEO of the largest bar and hotel in the country was saying over the classical music in the background, her poise proud and snobbish. Oh right, and she was also the one who had given me the contract to prepare this party tonight. I stood beside her, looking smaller compared to her taller frame. “I'm glad to be the one to whom you entrusted this,” I said, bowing slightly as a sign of respect She didn't pay any heed to me, her hand wrapped around the wine glass and her smoky eyes surveying around her guests. “I sent the cheque already… oh Mr. Harry, such a pleasure to see you…” she exclaimed and she was gone. Sighing, I straightened up and looked around the venue. It was filled with people, the rich kind, the type who threw money about. This was the kind of parties where only the most successful businessmen and women attended. The only reason why I was here was because I was the event planner who got ...
