A desperate young girl. A cold-hearted CEO. A contract that could change everything.

Bella, a loyal girl, tries to get her brother out of jail after he is framed for a crime he did not commit. With time running out and her brother's health at risk, she reluctantly agrees to an unconventional proposal: a contract marriage to Samuel Asher, the cold heir to a multinational company. 

Samuel's grandfather dangles the keys to the company—but only if Samuel marries and produces an heir. Viewing Bella as nothing more than a means to an end, he proposes a loveless union with strict rules. No attachments. No intimacy. Just business.

But as Bella and Samuel navigate their faux relationship, unexpected complications arise. Jonathan, Samuel's faithful PA and Bella's longtime friend, harbors secret feelings for her. And when Samuel breaks his own rules, leaving both Bella and his girlfriend Elaina pregnant, the stakes skyrocket. 

With a company empire, a brother's freedom, and the fate of two unborn children hanging in the balance, will cold ambition or unexpected love prevail?

My contract marriage with the billionaire

Her words hit me like a punch to the gut. I clenched my fists, anger and fear swirling within me. "What do we do?"

Eliana took a deep breath. "We have to figure out who's pulling the strings. The men who kidnapped you weren't just thugs. They were trained, organized. That means someone powerful is behind this."

My mind raced. "Could it be Peter? Or Cabo's allies?"

"Possibly," Eliana admitted. "But I think it's someone even higher up. Someone who's been in the shadows this whole time."

The weight of her words settled heavily on me.

A knock at the door interrupted us. One of Eliana's team members stepped in, his face tense. "Jacob is stable, but he's still unconscious. We've patched him up, but he needs rest."

Relief flooded through me, but it was short-lived. Jacob was safe for now, but the danger was far from over.
