Twist of Fate: The Stand-In Bride Chapter 1
In a dimly lit parking lot on a rainy night, Celia White held an umbrella and frantically knocked on the window of a parked car in the corner."Help me! Please help me!"She had been passing through when a drunken man started following her. The instant she saw someone enter the car, she ran over for help.Thud, thud, thud!Her knuckles hurt from knocking as her heart raced and her body trembled in fear.Unfortunately, the car door stayed closed. The drunkard caught up and grabbed her arm.Just as she was about to give into despair, believing the person inside was not going to help her, there was a soft click.The car door opened, revealing a shadowy figure inside.Celia immediately swung her umbrella at the drunkard's face, darting into the car as he yelped in pain."Bitch!"The drunkard screamed in fury.Celia watched in horror as he grabbed the car door, trying to yank her out..."Get lost!"Inside the car, a man's deep and rich voice rang out, causing shivers to run dow

The next day, in the CEO’s office at Hayes Tower.“Sir, the rumors have spread. I believe Ms. Jones will hear about them soon,” said Sam Allen respectfully.“For example?”A man dressed in a cold and sharp black suit leaned lazily on the sofa, his long legs propped up on the coffee table with his ankles crossed.His slender fingers pinched a cigarette, and a trail of smoke rose up. He narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression seemingly disdainful yet indifferent. There was a natural air of nobility and arrogance surrounding him.“Ahem... For example, they say you’re hideous, weigh over 200 pounds, have a violent temper, and even hit women.”Julian exhaled a smoke ring, his voice low and mesmerizing. “That’s not enough. Add another one: I’m impotent.”“Huh? R-Right!”Sam’s mouth twitched as he thought, ‘Spreading rumors about yourself being impotent? Mr. Hayes, you’re really brutal!’Julian was spreading these rumors about himself to force Ms. Jones to break off the engagement
Twist of Fate: The Stand-In Bride Chapter 3
Celia was startled. “A... pregnancy test...”The man in front of her had a tall aquiline nose, thin lips, prominent brow bones, and a pair of narrow, beautiful yet cold eyes.His angular face was incredibly handsome, and his buzz cut added to his rugged masculinity.At that moment, his sharp gaze was like a blade, cutting into her.Celia could not help but take a step back, feeling her heart race. “Who are you? I’m Mr. Hayes’ newlywed wife. You...”“You don’t deserve to know who I am, let alone be Mrs. Hayes! How dare you?!” The man looked at her like she was a fly, completely disdainful.Celia instantly felt upset, her face flushing. The next second, the man gripped her chin, his low voice filled with mockery.“Bringing a pregnancy test kit into the bridal chamber on your wedding night. Are you just peculiar or bold? You must be tired of living! Who are you provoking? Julian? Or the entire Hayes family?”Celia stood where she was in shock. The man in front of her clearly knew

The man’s cool fingertips slipped into her bathrobe collar, stopping just at the edge of her breasts. Celia’s mind instantly went blank as she froze in place.Fortunately, he withdrew his hand the next second. However...Click!He pulled the belt from his waist out, gripping it in his hand. His deep and beautiful eyes were filled with icy cruelty. “Why are you standing there like a block of wood? Shouldn’t you be good at pleasing men? Be more proactive.”Celia slowly clenched her fists, wanting to say something.Suddenly, the man lifted her chin with the belt, his handsome face full of mockery.“You heard the rumors about Julian, didn’t you? Yet, you refused to back out of the marriage and insisted on going through with it. That shows how badly you want to be Mrs. Hayes. Now, all you have to do is get in bed with me, and you can keep that title. Shouldn’t you be more than happy?”Celia instantly felt humiliated. Her eyes welled up in tears as she raised her hand to slap him. “Ba

Just as Celia was about to greet her, Misty said, “Zoe, I know you’ve had a hard life before, but you’re Mrs. Hayes now. You need to uphold the Hayes family’s image, so you should improve your appearance.”At that moment, Celia clenched the faded cuffs of her shirt. She could not remember how long it had been since she bought new clothes. She saved every penny she had for her grandmother’s medical bills and could not bear to spend a cent on herself.Suddenly, a warm hand held hers. She looked up and saw Agatha say sternly, “How do you want her to change? Should she wear gold and silver like you, looking so gaudy and tacky?”Misty instantly flushed at being lectured by Agatha, and in front of Celia, a new junior at that.“Old Mrs. Hayes, my heart just aches for what Zoe suffered in the past.” She reacted quickly and handed a bank card to Celia. “This is a gift from me. Go buy yourself some new clothes.”“I can’t accept this!” Celia instinctively refused. She was not the real daught

After arrogantly giving his orders, Julian began to tie his necktie.Celia gritted her teeth, cursing her bad luck at being caught by this jerk and having to submit to his bullying.She walked over and wrapped the belt around his waist but struggled with the odd metal buckle design. She had to crouch in front of him to fiddle with it.While Julian still smelled fresh from his shower, there was also a unique scent that seemed uniquely his. It was too strong to ignore, and as such, it distracted her.To make matters worse, Julian was gazing down at her intently with his smoldering eyes and making her face heat up. She felt immense pressure and her fingers became even clumsier.What Celia did not notice, however, was that Julian’s tie-tying had stopped at some point, and there seemed to be a bulge in his pants.From his vantage point looking down, he watched her face in close proximity to a certain area. Her delicate fingers that were still moving around the region unknowingly spark

After retrieving the document from the study, Julian headed towards the bedroom.As he pushed open the door, a look of disgust flashed across his stern face.The room smelled of unfamiliar snacks. A half-eaten apple was found in one corner, and the person responsible was sprawled on the bed clutching her phone.She was asleep…The chip crumbs strewn across the sheets were almost too much for him to bear!Just as Julian was considering throwing her out of his room, Celia rolled over, causing her nightgown to ride up to her waist.A glimpse of her slender waist and snowy-white legs peeked out…Julian's gaze darkened. He quickly pulled the blanket over Celia in an attempt to interrupt his own inappropriate thoughts. To his dismay, he accidentally knocked the chips on the bed over.As a result, half a bag of chips scattered across the floor!At that moment, Celia hazily opened her eyes. Julian noticed they were red as if she had been crying. He was stunned for a moment but quickly

“That may apply to others, but not me." The man's cold, emotionless voice conveyed his habitual superiority and arrogance.Celia calmly countered, "Doctors treat all patients equally. No one gets any special privilege."She took this job very seriously with a stubbornness she did not even realize she had.Silence fell on the other side of the curtain.The ultramarine curtain suddenly felt like an imposing wall, making it hard to breathe."Sir, it's her first day on the job. She doesn't know the rules yet. Please don't be angry!" Dr. Sanders apologized frantically to the person behind the curtain while shooting Celia a sharp glare. "You should leave now!"Celia was briefly at a loss, but she soon regained her bearings and prepared to leave."She can stay," the man behind the curtain suddenly spoke. "Let us begin."Celia sat back down, surprised. He should have been displeased, but he did not seem to mind.Behind the curtain, Julian put away his cigarette, his brow slightly furr
