Chapter 1 Get yourself a fiancee

" Mom why are you here?"his cold voice echoed in the sitting room as he ascend the stairs, with his hands tucked in his tuxedo suit like a demigod.

" don't I have the right to be here?"Mrs Del'mundo asked furrowing her brows

" you should at least let me know before coming" he said and sat down on a sofa

Mrs Del'mundo looked around the whole luxirious sitting room before sitting on a sofa facing him.

" don't you get tired of being alone?"she asked but he ignored her question by looking away.

" am talking to you Hillary Del'mundo!!"she half yelled with anger and sadness visible on her face.

" not now mom"he groaned and check his expensive and flashy wrist watch.

" I gotta go now" he stood up walking away leaving his mum

" don't tell me you're walking out on me?" She asked as she walked after him to the parking lot.

" what does it look like am doing"he said without turning back as he walked to his black Lamborghini.

" You're no longer a kid Hillary!!"

" Mom!! am just twenty five okay so let me off the hook already"he said and opened the car door but his mom hit the door and it shut immediatly with a loud thud making him to flinch.

" you're going nowhere if you don't set me a date to show me your fiancee"his mum said in a serious tone.

Mrs Del'mundo is a beautiful woman in her mid-forties with blonde hair and hazel eyes. She wearing a fitted red gown with slit at the back, a red heels and black designer bag.

Her heels kept clicking as she followed Hillary to the parking lot.

" are you ready to leave this house or we both remain here?"she smirked and he scoffed.

" mom really!! you're delaying my meeting, I have some clients to attend to for fuck sake!!"he groaned but Mrs Del'mundo wasn't ready to listen to him as she held the handle of the door so tight and Hillary let out a frustrating sign.

" Mom just give me some time I would find a bride for myself"

" same old story!! you keep telling same old story,how many times have you told me that?, no!!no!! don't answer it, I will do it myself"

" This is the one thousand and one times you've told me this"she rolled her eyes.

" why do I have such a crazy woman to birth me" he muttered lowly rubbing his forehead in frustration.

" I heard that"she said

" fine!!fine!! just give me a month, I promise to find a beautiful and elegant fiancee" he said feigning a smile

" I won't buy that!! it just one of your numerous lies just to let you off the hook, but trust me I won't let you fool me with your lies"

" I promise mom" he said with pleading eyes.

The woman he loves with his whole heart is his Mom and he can't trade her for the world. She's the only one who can make him smile even if he is mad, upset, sad.......

She's the best thing that has ever happened to him and she's the only person he is not cold towards.

" I won't fall for your pity face"she told her eyes again.

" Mom if you keep rolling your eyes they might fall off"he said and she rolled it again.

" are you leaving!!"

" Okay fine!! If I don't bring my fiancee after this month you gave me then you're free to get me one"

" Is that a promise?"

" Yes it is , so can I leave now?" He asked and she let go of the car's handle and he got in immediately.

" don't try me Hillary Del'mundo" she shouted as he drove out of his mansion.

" Such a crazy woman" he smiled and drove off to his company.

DOLPHIN GROUP OF COMPANIES

" You're welcome sir" the staffs all stood up to greet him but as usual he put on a cold look ignoring their greetings.

He walked Straight to his office without sparing them a glance.

He sat down in his chair, took the telephone which was neatly placed close to his laptop.

He punched a number on the telephone and placed it on his ear.

" Come to my office now"his commanding voice could send shivers down anyone's spine and without waiting for a reply he hanged up and concentrated back on his laptop.

Not to long a guy came dressed in suit, he is Reece Fargo his manager and assistant.

" Good morning Mr Hillary "Reece greeted but Hillary just nodded and Reece frowned.

He knew Hillary wouldn't answer his greetings right from the very first day he started working with him as his assistant and manager.

He has been cold towards everyone and barely talks except during board meeting or urgent meeting.

Some of the staffs in the office call him cold-blooded boss, cause he is as cold as ice.

" I wish his heart could be open again to love....... wait what am I bluffing, this dude here can't change no matter which lady comes into his life, and moreover all lady's are after his money and good looks anyway, they don't love him a bit and that's what is annoying me"Reece thought.

All this while Reece was lost in thought, Hillary stared at him for a while before continuing.

" How busy is my day?" His cold voice could make shivers run through anybody's spine cause of how cold he sounds.

" The investors from Moreno oil company would be here in an hour, you also have a meeting with the clients from Korea............."Reece kept reading from the tablet he was holding.

When he was done Hillary signed and relax his back on the chair.

" Sir should I cancelled your meeting with the investors from Moreno oil company" Reece asked with hesitation in his voice, cause of the look Hillary throwed at him.

" Did I complain to you?" Hillary raised his brows giving Reece a questioning look

" Thought you're tired of going to different meetings"Reece muttered.

" Are you tired of your job?" Hillary asked and Reece immediately shook his head.

" Prepare all what I need for the meeting with Moreno oil and also prepare my meeting with my clients from Korea" he said and turned to his laptop again.

Reece left his office and shut the door behind him. He immediately let out the breath he was holding since he entered Hillary's office.

Nicole had entered marriage with Walter, a man who never returned her feelings, bound to him through an arrangement made by their families rather than by choice. Even so, she had held onto the quiet belief that time might soften his heart and that one day he would learn to love her. However, that day never came. Instead, he treated her with constant contempt, tearing her down with cruel words and dismissing her as fat and manipulative whenever it suited him. After two years of a cold and distant marriage, Walter demanded a divorce, delivering his decision in the most degrading manner he could manage. Stripped of her dignity and exhausted by the humiliation, Nicole agreed to her friend Brenda's plan to make him see what he had lost. The idea was simple but daring. She would use another man to prove that the woman Walter had mocked and insulted could still be desired by someone else. All they had to do was hire a gigolo. Patrick had endured one romantic disappointment after another. Every woman he had been involved with had been drawn not to him, but to his wealth. As one of the heirs to a powerful and influential family, he had long accepted that this pattern was almost unavoidable. What Patrick wanted was far more difficult to find. He longed to fall in love with a woman who cared for him as a person, not for the name he carried or the fortune attached to it. One night, while he was at a bar, an attractive stranger approached him. Because of his appearance and composed demeanor, she mistook him for a gigolo. She made an unconventional proposal, one that immediately caught his interest and proved impossible for him to refuse.

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.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
