MerrySweet

*Based on a true story where love has its dark sides but burns hotter than ever* 

Abandoned by her mother and orphaned at a young age, Natalie held a deep-seated mistrust for the world especially when it came to men. Her strategy for survival was simple: work hard enough to scrape by each month and rely solely on yourself!

Fate had other plans in store for her. 

Enter Alonso Valois, a charismatic billionaire who swept into her life and showed her just how right a man can be. Despite Natalie's attempts to keep him at arm's length, Alonso who had no intention of letting her slip away shocked her by proposing just two weeks after their first encounter!

Was this the "happily ever after" Natalie had dreamt of? Far from it. 

Walking into the Valois mansion with Alonso's dad calling all the shots felt like walking into a lion's den for Natalie. Little did she know that while she was trying her best to fit in, her in-laws were scrambling to conceal the truth about what happened to the women in the Valois family. 

As the past comes haunting Alonso and demanding its price, will the unwanted bride be the one who saves the Valois ship from sinking? Or will she be the first one to jump off that sinking ship?

Mr. Billionaire's Unwanted Bride

Determined not to let her father-in-law have the satisfaction of winning, Natalie took a deep breath and stepped out of her room to inform Juan of her decision.

"I am ready, Mr. Juan. Let's do this."

"They are all waiting for you in the garden, madam."

All of them? Would there be an audience for her ordeal too, then?

"…Lead the way, please, Mr. Juan."

It was a lengthy walk behind Juan who carried the tray in his steady hand all the way to the mansion's garden—a part Natalie had not seen before except through the window of her room since it was located on the opposite side of the parking space. The garden was conveniently divided into two sections: a closed winter garden and an open summer garden.

When Juan mentioned everyone, he truly meant everyone.
