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

We were both laughing when we heard a knock on the door. It's already 10:00 pm, who would knock at that hour?


I was about to go and open the door when Gabriel grabbed my hand and he took the lead inside. We heard another knock before Gabriel opened it and I frowned when I saw Greg outside Gabriel's room.


"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you," he said looking at our intertwined hands and then he looked at me smiling. "Madi, is this yours?" He showed us a white handkerchief.


And my eyes widened as I looked at him. That was my handkerchief embroidered with my childhood nickname, 'Maiden'.. where I got the name of my restaurants.


I took it straight away and smiled. "Thanks, Greg."


"Tss!" I Gabriel huffed. "So, is that just your reason why you knocked on our door at this of a late hour?"


"You can give it to her by tomorrow, so why do you---"
