Married To The Crippled Billionaire
"Mom, I don't get what's happening? Wedding?"
"But darling, you already accepted the St Daniels' offer," Melissa said sweetly to her daughter.
"I didn't know what I was accepting," Mari protested. "She pleaded with me to help her son Raymond."
"Of course, honey, you're helping Raymond by marrying him," Melissa said. Her tone is filled with sweetness, trying to damp her daughter's fury. "And besides, this arrangement is crucial to your father. Tell her, Cullman, she needs to know."
Mari's gaze shifted to her father, her eyes narrowing.
"Catherine, my businesses are crashing and I'm on the brink of bankruptcy," her father admitted. "I couldn't bear the thought of my competitors gloating over my downfall. I had to strike a deal with the St Daniels. They were looking for a suitable bride for their eldest son, and...I'm afraid you're the price I had to pay, Catherine."
Mari sighed, her mind still reeling in confusion.
"But Raymond St Daniels is still in a coma, how is it possible for me to marry him?"
Both parents exchanged a secret glance.
Her mother was the one that spoke up.
"Raymond St Daniels has awaken from his coma. But the doctors said he'll be crippled for the rest of his life."
