Love And Innocence Chapter 1 Stranger in the house

"Francesca" Liza my best friend shouted my name as usual

"Liza, please my ears are not made of stone" I shouted back brushing my straight black long hair and rushing to her room.

Hello!!!

I am Francesca Martina, I'm a 24 year old medical doctor and wife, yes wife but enough of that. I was born into a wealthy family of four. I am the second and last born. I have two lovely parents, a rude elder sister and a lovely dog. My life was going pretty normal, my dad Martin and my mum Rosetta had been the best parents until they got me into a contract marriage with Damien Lorenzo, a billionaire... Well that was pretty much all I knew about him. I didn't even take a single glance at his face on our wedding day. Court wedding to be precise. My only memory of him is his shoes, cause I stared at them all through the forty minutes I spent with him. The only reason I agreed to marry him was that we didn't have to live together. I haven't even seen him for the past two years...

"What have you been thinking about, you seem lost in thought" Liza said looking at me with her chocolate brown eyes. Liza, is my best friend, since I live alone in Damien's house in New York and he lives in Italy, I offered her to stay with me. Liza is a beautiful blonde with full plump lips. She has an oval face and short blonde hair. Liza is of moderate height, she's a 23 year old lawyer. We are currently in her room getting ready for work. She is currently dressed in a black pencil skirt and white button up shirt, accompanied by black heels.

I on the other hand is dressed in a blue knee-length gown that hugs my skin like a glue. The blue gown complements my ocean blue eyes. I complete the look with black heels. I look at my complexion in the mirror, I have a V face and pink plump lips. I look at my straight black hair and notice my resemblance with my sister. Looking at the wall clock I take my blue bag and smoothen my hair before looking at Liza who has been waiting for a reply.

"I'm fine Liza, unlike you I think before I speak" I say grinning and walking out of the room

"OMG, how dare you" Liza screamed from the room.

Laughing to myself I walk down the gold coated steps carefully and quickly rush to the kitchen. The kitchen is full of any type of food you can think of. I move to the fridge and take a jar of orange juice and pour it in a glass. Being conscious of time I take two slices of bread and start eating. When I'm done with my small breakfast I leave the kitchen and go to the living room.

The living room is a luxurious living space with ash sofas and silver curtains. I gasp in surprise when I notice a male figure standing beside one of the windows with his back turned to me. Even though I'm surprised I'm not scared cause this house is thoroughly guarded. It is as guarded as the bank of Spain or even the White House. I'm not overacting trust me. To gain entrance into the huge gates you need to go through a face recognition, finger print test, ID card test, body scanning, bag searching, etc. So if this guy is here then I'm not scared. Gathering the courage...

"Hello, please who are you and how may we help you" I ask consciously. The strange guy didn't even answer me and went outside, huffing to my self I notice Liza coming down the stairs.

"What took you so long" I ask glaring at her. Smiling Liza quickly rushes to the kitchen and comes back with a glass of orange juice and four slices of bread on a plate. After taking a sip of her juice she says with a wink...

"I was powdering my nose" Giving her a disgusted look I call the cook and housekeeper Gretta

"Gretta, I'm leaving for work soon, what do you want me to get you?" I ask as the sweet middle aged woman rushes to the living room smiling

"Nothing my dear. You have given me enough gifts this week" she answered smiling

"Oh Gretta you know we love you" Liza tells her while stuffing her face with bread. Scoffing at Liza I go and give Gretta a hug

"Sorry I didn't prepare breakfast girls, Mrs Lorenzo asked me to arrange..." Hearing the name of my mother inlaw suddenly spoilt my mood, so I respectfully cut Gretta off

"It's fine Gretta, we can do with the orange juice and bread, Liza go drop your plates so we can leave" huffing, Liza quickly rushed to the kitchen but not without glaring at me

"Umm Francesca did you see that man earlier, he..." Francesca was cut off by the beep from my phone. Reaching for my phone I saw that it was a message from the hospital. I quickly grabbed my bag and kissed Gretta on the cheek

"Gretta, I don't know who he is, maybe he is here for one of the workers, I really have to go to work now. Liza let's go, meet me outside" With that I rushed out of the house.

"Good morning madam" Rio, the bubbly tall gardener greeted me

"Good morning Rio" I said smiling while walking to the garage. I noticed a black Bugatti near Liza and my cars but I didn't pay attention, I went to my black Range Rover and started my engine, I saw Liza rushing to her Lamborghini but I was already driving to the gate. The gate keeper opened the gate for me while nodding in greeting. Smiling at him I drove out of the house. On my way out I spotted the same strange man walking back into the house with his back to me again... Who is he hmm.

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband's Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn't find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn't even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father's legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn's party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara's health and managing every detail of Caden's empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I'd drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause-if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I'd forgotten.

I was the titan of Wall Street until an indictment and an ankle monitor turned my penthouse into a gilded cage. To save face, I was forced into a marriage with Elza, a "mute" girl from the Schmidt family whom I treated as nothing more than a silent piece of furniture while my empire crumbled. The night I was poisoned at a high-society gala, a mysterious server in an oversized uniform saved my life with terrifying, clinical precision. They disappeared into the night, leaving me with a silver cufflink and a burning obsession to find the shadow who held my life in their hands. Back home, I took my frustration out on Elza, telling her she was "exhausting to look at" and "smelled like sickness" after her charity visits. Her own family treated her like a stray dog, trying to humiliate her at the next gala by dressing her in what they claimed was a cheap knockoff while whispering to the press that she was nothing but a high-end escort. "Stay out of my way," I would growl at her, never noticing the steel in her eyes. I sat at my table, watching my rivals' stocks plummet and wondering who "The Zero"—the legendary financial ghost—really was. I never suspected that the woman I ignored was the same one solving the equations that were currently burning Manhattan to the ground. The injustice peaked when Elza stood before the city's elite, not as a victim, but as a queen. She dropped over a hundred million dollars to buy back her family’s legacy, revealing a secret fortune that made my own empire look like pocket change. As I grabbed her wrist and saw the small red mole hidden beneath her watch, the truth hit me like a physical blow. The silent wife I had despised was the savior I had been hunting, and she was finally done playing the victim. "We have a lot to talk about, wife," I whispered, realizing I had been sleeping next to the most dangerous woman in the world.

For two years, I was the invisible force behind tech billionaire Kieran Douglas, convinced that our "private" romance was his way of protecting us from the tabloid spotlight. I managed his mergers, warmed his bed, and waited for a future that didn't exist. The illusion shattered at 6:00 AM when a Page Six alert debuted Kieran’s "real" romance with socialite Aspen Schneider. Before I could even process the betrayal, Kieran sent me a cold, professional text: "Order flowers for Aspen. Pink peonies. Her favorite." When I tried to walk away, my own mother called me a disgrace and threatened to lock my inheritance forever unless I married a sixty-year-old businessman to save her failing estate. At a high-society gala that same night, Aspen intentionally crushed my burned hand in front of the cameras, while Kieran stood by and dismissed me as a "mediocre assistant" who had overstayed her welcome. I stood in the cold New York rain, drenched in champagne and humiliation, realizing that every sacrifice I made for Kieran was a joke. I was a ghost in a penthouse that was never mine, discarded the moment his "soulmate" returned. To the world, I was just a placeholder whose time had run out. But Kieran forgot one thing: my father’s multi-million dollar trust fund unlocks the moment I legally marry. I didn't need love; I needed a signature and a shield. I walked into a discreet law firm and signed a marriage contract with a man I believed was the city’s most notorious, scandal-ridden playboy. I thought I was marrying a degenerate "beard" to buy my freedom and secure my revenge. I didn't realize the man who signed that paper wasn't a playboy at all, but Gaston Collins—the most powerful and dangerous man on Wall Street—and he had no intention of letting our fake marriage stay fake.
