Gabriel Wilsons, the well known 'devil' in the whole business industry of Chicago. He has everything that you wish for your dream man to have. Power, money, perfection, handsomeness and a body like a Greek God. But he's in love. He's still in love with the woman from his past.
The same woman he has given everything he had before, but eventually betrayed him, left him and shattered his heart into pieces. And because of that, he turned into a cold, heartless, rude and an arrogant billionaire who will do everything to seek revenge and to show her that she's no longer important in his life. Even though the truth is the opposite of what he is doing.
That's when he met me. I applied as his Personal Assistant to fulfil my bucket list of dreams. To explore my life and experience everything. Then he offered me a deal. He asked me to marry him just to show his ex that he already moved on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"She's pregnant." He blurted out and I almost fall from where I stood. I just grasped the backrest of the couch to support my weight. The pain creeping in my heart was unbearable but I managed to stay calm.
"Congratulations!" I said faking my excitement. Well, I can't call it as cheating because she's the real reason why we were pretending as a couple. And that's when I made the biggest decision in my life. Taking the biggest secret in me, that I've already fallen in love with him---- I left him. Then eventually I learned a lesson.
'Loving someone who doesn't love you back isn't as hard as loving someone who can't see your worth and only uses you as his way to get someone he loves back into his life."

FALLING FOR THE MAN I MARRIED

I tried to sleep, but this freaking sleep doesn't want to visit me. I did almost everything but every time I closed my eyes, all I saw see was his face, smiling at me.


And the question that kept ringing in my head, was the real reason why I accepted his deal. Am I attracted to him? No! It's only been two months, it's impossible! How would explain this to my mom? Would I tell her the truth? Or maybe act like I'm in love with Gabriel?


I don't know what time I dozed off. It's actually the first time this has happened to me... thinking about a person until I fall asleep.


"Argh! I hate you! Can you stop on ringing?" I shouted frustratedly. Actually, I don't know if it's my alarm clock or my cellphone.


"Argh!" With my eyes still closed, I took the alarm clock from the bedside table. "Tell me who set you up so early on a Sunday morning?" And then I turned it off.
