Night Owl

Jaden Blackwell was given an ultimatum by his parents: get married in six months or lose the company to his cousins. And when Anna Hayes walked into his office seeking for a loan to save her dying sister, he saw it as the perfect opportunity.

She marries him, she saves her sister, he saves the company he worked hard for.

The contract was simple, no intimacy, no strings attached and most importantly; no love.

But what happens when he goes against everything he has ever known and realizes that Anna might just be his downfall? And he began to question himself: was it still a contract?

And what happens when he finds out Anna might not be who she claims to be?





A CONTRACT MARRIAGE TO THE RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE

The morning sun spilled through the glass windows of their villa, casting a golden hue on everything it touched. Anna stood in front of the mirror, tying her hair into a neat ponytail, her reflection betraying none of the emotions storming inside her. Last night’s confrontation replayed in her mind like a broken record. Jaden’s words, sharp and dismissive, still stung, but she refused to let them ruin her day. She had made a promise to herself—she would play the role of the perfect wife, but when the time came, Jaden would pay. 


“Anna,” Jaden’s voice called out from the living room, his tone as calm and collected as ever. “Are you ready?” 


She took a deep breath, plastered on her most convincing smile, and stepped out. “Of course, darling,” she replied sweetly, her voice dripping with false warmth. 


Jaden’s dark eyes scanned her briefly before he nodded. “Let’s head to breakfast. The restaurant is already expecting us.”
