Anna felt as if her entire world was collapsing around her. She had never imagined herself marrying a stranger in her life. Furthermore, he is one of the wealthiest people in the country. It's got to be a joke. She may aspire to marry someone wealthy, but Ibrahim Saunders is not on her list. Because of his arrogant and ruthless behavior, he is well-known throughout the country. He is the last person Anna would have imagined as her husband.

"Are you serious, Dad? You're not serious, are you?" Anna asked the same question twice that it was driving her insane that her father still remained silent. He is also depressed because Ibrahim agreed to marry his daughter.

Anna's tears have begun to well up in her eyes and are ready to seep. She may be 26 years old, but she does not want to leave her family not yet. They couldn't possibly expect her to marry a stranger.

"I despise you all." Anna sobbed and shut herself away in her room. Why is the world so cruel to her? She only wants to marry someone she loves, and she already has a partner in mind. Why should she have to give up her future for the sake of her family? It hurts her so much that her marriage is driven by greed. Yes, money triumphs. Nothing is impossible when you have money and power.

When she heard someone barging into her room, Anna quickly dried her tears. What on earth are all of these people thinking? She, too, had her own space. "What are you doing?" She couldn't stop herself from yelling at her brother.

When Ethan saw how upset his sister was, he sighed. He understands how she feels, but he can't do much because the future of the company is in her hands. "Anna, no matter how angry or upset you are, you should not yell at your father like that. He is already under duress due to business matters." He attempted to make his sister understand.

Again, tears streamed down her cheeks. "What went wrong? Why are you attempting to sell me to that man? I know I've always caused problems, but I don't want to marry him. I know he is extremely wealthy, but I do not love him, and he doesn't love me. How will I explain it to Kai? You know I love him" Her voice trembled, indicating that she was both upset and scared.

Ethan quickly encircles his sister and pats her on the back. For a brief moment, he feels compelled to cry as well. "I apologize, Anna. Please don't tell him we're selling you. Kai, on the other hand, I believe he will understand. I couldn't do much because our future is in his hands. He is the only one willing to buy our company's stock. The fund he offered is sufficient to cover all losses and expenses. This may appear ridiculous, but consider how tirelessly Dad worked to build his company. He started from the bottom, and do you want his legacy to be ruined in this way?" Ethan tried to persuade her.

Anna's beautiful eyes welled up with tears as she looked at her brother with a sorrowful gaze. "I'm scared this is not the future which I dreamed of," she cried out, her voice shaking.

Ethan was well aware of how frightening it would be to marry someone she didn't know. Marriage is a serious matter that should not be taken lightly. It pains Ethan to see his sister cry like this. He pulls his embrace closer to her. "Cry it out if it helps you feel better. I'll always be there to keep you safe. Even if you are his wife, he has no right to harm you." said Ethan as he stroked her back.  

"Marriage ought to be something that lasts forever. My future is on the line." Her voice is husky, indicating that she was depressed.

Ethan gently caress his sister's hair to calm her. "I am sorry, Anna." He is depressed as well, knowing that his sister must forego her future in order to save her father's company. He knew Ibrahim was no ordinary man, and he was surprised that Ibrahim wanted to marry his sister. Ethan is aware that a girl like Anna is not his type, and he is suspicious of his desire to marry Anna. However, his mind is so clouded that he is preoccupied with how to assist his father in saving the company.

"First and foremost, you must complete your final project. You're already 26 years old and should have received your bachelor's degree! Ibrahim gave us three months to finalize everything before the wedding, which will be 3 months after your graduation." Ethan stated.

What? She will marry Ibrahim in three months. Oh, no. This can't be true.

    In the next second, Anna could feel his lips brush over hers, giving her a warm yet passionate kiss. A kiss that they missed, both. Each time he has her in his arms, she feels frozen. Why does his touch feel so magical? She can feel his tongue asking for entrance as she parted her lips only to let the kiss go wilder. She circled her hand on his neck, and as soon as she wanted to kiss him even deeper, she felt something kicking from her belly again, making her push Ibrahim away.“Why?” Asked Ibrahim frustrated.“He kicked again, it seems like he doesn’t like it when you kiss me.” Anna replied, rubbing her palm on her stomach.Ibrahim grinned at her. “He kicks because he can feel pity for his father that his mother kept on asking his father to go.”Anna glared at Ibrahim. “Don’t make such excuses! Look at the time. It’s almost evening and you should go back now.”“No, I’m not leaving yet if you don’t let me kiss you properly.” Ibrahim shook his head in stubbornness.She immediately stan

    Sitting on the dining table, Anna poured the chocolate syrup on Sofia’s pancakes. “I know you liked your pancake with honey but we only have chocolate sauce and agave syrup. You won't mind right?” asked Anna because she knew her husband could be a little picky eater sometimes.Ibrahim was a little touched by her action. She still remembers little things about him. “It’s fine actually I’m very hungry as I haven’t had my dinner last night so I can eat anything.”“The last time I remember you didn’t eat Alan’s restaurant noodles, complaining that it’s too spicy and oily for you. And why didn’t you have your dinner last night? I've told you not to skip it.”Ibrahim smiled. “You still think of me all the time, isn’t it? And no, because I wasn't able to find a good stay here, all the hotels were previously booked because it's a holiday.”“So, where are you staying then?”“Don’t worry the room is small but it’s okay I can manage it.”Anna didn’t ask any further but focused her attention back

  • Vengeance of a Billionaire's   He couldn't able to endure losing her second time

    The night had turned into day in just a blink of an eye, but Ibrahim couldn't seem to forget what happened between him and Anna. He couldn't give up just because she was giving him the cold shoulder. Even if she keeps on pushing him away, he will always try to come back to her. He couldn't able to endure losing her for the second time. So that’s why now he is here, in front of a two-story bungalow that's located not too far from the beach where he met her.Ibrahim rubbed his palms together to warm himself because the air was getting colder. “Why is it taking her so long to open the door?” He mumbled on his own.However, not long after that, the door was opened. His lips curled up, thinking maybe it was Anna who opened the door, but the smile faded when he saw it was a little girl instead.“Who are you?” The little girl asked, looking at Ibrahim with a confused gaze.Ibrahim was confused as well. He looked at his surroundings and his phone screen, checking if he really had the right ad

  • Vengeance of a Billionaire's   The person responsible for his happiness was himself

    Ibrahim heaved a deep sigh. He took off his spectacles as he massaged the bridge of his nose gently. He couldn't help but force himself to concentrate on his work as he looked at the piles of documents he had to go through. He put on his spectacles and moved his gaze back to his notebook screen. At the same time, his phone rang.“Yes Jessica.” He picked up the phone with his left hand while clicking the mouse with his right.“Sir, the annual shareholder conference will be held this afternoon after lunch. I have the documents and presentation slides ready.”Ibrahim kept quiet for a while when he heard Jessica say the annual shareholder conference because it usually takes place somewhere near the end of the year. Oh, how time flies, and it should be his wedding anniversary soon, but he is still here, alone.“Sir, are you there?” Jessica's voice was heard again.“Ah, yes. Notify me when we're about to start.” Ibrahim replied.“Noted.”After sleepless nights, skipping meals, and consuming

  • Vengeance of a Billionaire's   Give me a second chance

    Anna POVHow does it feel to live in circumstances where you have to battle with your own feelings? To me, it feels like torture. People said feelings are more dangerous than ideas, because they aren't susceptible to rational evaluation. They grow quietly underground before exploding all over the place. You tend to act in the opposite way from the rational side if you act based on your heart, and vice versa, because your heart doesn't have thoughts.I loved that man. Oh no, I still love him. If the feelings could not be forgotten after sixteen years. I doubt if several months can. Day by day, I missed him a little more than yesterday. I missed his voice. I missed his smile. I missed his smell. I missed his hug, and I missed how he made me feel wanted. I missed how he praises every bit of my body while making love with me. If I love him that much, why would I leave him? I left him not because I no longer love him, but because I love him so much that it started to hurt me.I realized th

  • Vengeance of a Billionaire's   There is nothing left between us to mend

    The cool breeze blew through her hair softly. The leaves have turned yellow and are slowly falling, filling up the street. Summer slowly collapsed into fall. There is a saying that goes, Autumn leaves don't fall; they fly. They take their time, wander around, and this is their only chance to soar.Anna tightened her coat as soon as she got off the taxi, walking into one of the most famous barbeque restaurants in London Road.Her lips curled up upon looking at the faces that she recognized wholeheartedly. She could see one of them waving their hand at her, and she didn't think twice but to approach them and hug them tightly.“Sorry for the delay. There was a lot of traffic.” Said Anna as she took a seat.Lily laughed softly. “It's okay, Anna. We are used to it.” She joked.“Let's order something first. I'm very hungry.” Jacob interrupted them before they could even start their bickering.Just like in the old days, the three had a nice barbeque meal with cheers and laughter. Anna couldn
