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

She only realized she had been lost in a daytime daze when her head snapped up again to look at a pale Kevin who had somehow crouched next to her. He had become inches away from her face, his chest pumping up and down so hard as if he was on the brink of hyperventilating.

"…Sorry, I didn't hear you calling out."

His big hands that were already placed on her shoulders squeezed her collarbone lightly while regret filled his big green eyes beneath his sweaty forehead.

"I dumped everything on you because I felt I would be betraying you otherwise. But mayb-"

"No," she interrupted him, "You did the right thing by telling me."

"...Are you going to tell Alonso?"

She sighed, "My father-in-law knows about this, and even he kept it a secret from his own children. Telling Alonso about his twin when Isabella is a scar that runs deep within... It's just not that easy."
