Chapter 1: The deal
Substitute Bride to the Dying CEO/Alpha_Bitch
Chapter 1: The Deal“If you ever want to see your grandmother again,” Clara began, her voice smooth yet tinged with menace, “you have two choices. Marry Rowan Hale in your sister’s place, or pay 10 million to free yourself from this responsibility.”The grand hall of the Calloway estate felt suffocating, as if the walls themselves were closing in on Ivy. Clara’s voice cut through the silence, cold and calculating.Ivy’s laugh was bitter, jagged. “You want to climb the social ladder so badly, but you won’t let your precious daughter marry a dying man? So, you come to me instead? You’re beyond pathetic, Clara.” She sneered, eyes sharp. “But go ahead, keep dreaming. You can’t threaten me.”Clara’s eyes hardened. A slow, cruel smile spread across her face as she leaned in. “Then I’ll send that old hag you call your grandmother straight to the crematorium. I’ll scatter her ashes so she’ll never find peace. That’s a promise.”Ivy’s breath hitched. Her heart dropped, but her gaze remained un

Chapter 2: A Life for a LifeThat night, a sleek black sedan pulled up to Ivy’s apartment. The driver, silent and efficient, navigated the winding streets of the city before coming to a stop in front of a mansion that looked out of place—ancient yet grand, like something from another time. Its towering gates opened with a soft click, revealing an estate that radiated a serene elegance, the kind of place where time seemed to stand still.Ivy stepped out, her heels clicking sharply against the stone driveway. A man, middle-aged with a neatly trimmed mustache and impeccable posture, greeted her. His presence was formal, yet warm.“Madam, welcome,” he said with a slight bow, his smile pleasant. “I’m Finch, the butler.”Ivy nodded politely, offering a small smile. “Thank you, Mr. Finch.”Without another word, Finch led her into the mansion. The interior was equally striking—luxurious, yet steeped in tradition. As they ascended the grand staircase, he gestured to the second floor.“This way

Chapter 3: Grandchild"Ivy, let’s put the past behind us," Justin said, his voice oily with insincerity. He tried to appear genuine, but there was something too calculating about the way he spoke. "I still care about you. Look, Rowan’s a lost cause. He’s practically fucking dead. The doctors have said he’s beyond saving. If you stay by his side, you’ll be a widow before long. Let’s keep things between us quiet. Once he’s gone, everything he owns will be ours."Ivy felt her stomach churn. She hadn’t realized just how vile Justin was until this moment. The audacity, the shamelessness—it was suffocating."What if your brother doesn’t die?" she asked, her voice cold, cutting through the air like a knife.Justin hesitated for a moment, caught off guard by the question. "That’s impossible!" His words came out too quickly, as if he was trying to convince himself more than her. "The doctors have said there’s no hope. His coffin’s already prepared."Ivy’s lips curled into a mocking smile, her

Chapter 4: Dearest wife, get lost. Ivy’s polite smile faltered, the weight of the old man’s words pressing down on her shoulders like a heavy stone. For a fleeting moment, she felt the crushing burden of his expectations, the weight of a promise she hadn't made yet was bearing down on her. But she steadied herself, pushing aside the discomfort, and lowered her head with respect. “Thank you, Grandpa. I'll keep that in mind,” she murmured, though the words felt hollow in her mouth.The old man’s gaze softened slightly, but his tone remained firm. “We’re family, child. No need for formalities,” he said with a wave of his hand. “Now, go check on Rowan.”Ivy nodded, her breath shaky as she turned toward the door. She couldn’t help but feel his eyes on her retreating figure, the sharp intensity of his gaze following her every movement. For a moment, the space between them felt like an abyss she had no choice but to cross.After a few beats of silence, the old man spoke again, his voice low
