Six years after she left him waiting at the altar, Charles Anthony Oxford finally met Isabella Shade.  And six years proved to be a long time as Isabella was already married and Charles who had grown from millionaire to multi billionaire, well, he was in search for a wife for certain reasons.

On learning that his runaway bride’s company was in financial crisis because of her good for nothing husband’s gambling problems amongst other reasons, Charles saw an opportunity. 
Two, actually.

Not only would he be getting a wife, he would be able to exact revenge on the woman who had left him heartbroken, in his own way.

All he had to do was remind her of the terrible thing she had done, torture her a bit with a sexual toss here and there, remind her of her present status and all she needed to do was agree to his terms and become his wife…

But with a woman like Isabella, it just wasn’t going to be so easy…

Blackmailing his runaway bride

Charles chuckled and that surprised his mother. "Is that what you came all this way to say?" he asked, grabbing Isabella's hand after as though he intended to ignite his mother's rage. 


"Did you hear what I said Charles? Your wife is incapable of giving birth!" 


"So?" He laughed again and faced the woman beside him who was trying to keep a blank face. Claire wondered why Charles was acting like it was no big deal. She knew how particular he was about having a child or two when finally married. 


"How is this funny Charles? I am trying to tell you that-" 


"I already knew Mother. And it is not her fault. So, I don't really see the point you are trying to make here." 


Claire Oxford scoffed and decided to take a different route. "I heard Ordinaz wants a grandchild from you." 


He instantly frowned and asked cautiously, " How do you know about that?"
