Chapter 1 One

Chapter

" Congratulations Miss Smith, you are one month pregnant." The gynecologist announced to me.

I had a lost look on my face, tears stinging my eyes.

" You have to be extra careful, you are carrying twins." She added a smile on her face. With a simple thank you, I walked out of the room, tears washing over my cheeks.

" Next." A soft yet powerful feminine voice called. I watched as a blonde dressed impeccably in a black skirt suit made her way to the interview room.

I was seated outside, patiently waiting for my turn. My heart wouldn't stop panicking.

It's been hours since I arrived at YTC Corp, the largest company in Los Angeles.

I was here to try my luck despite knowing the chances of getting hired were close to zero. After all, who wants a freshman to work in their company without prior working experience? Especially if that company is as famous and developed as YTC.

I had come across an online ad, advertising a secretary to the CEO of YTC.

Without a job to support myself after graduating from college with a degree in business communication, I decided to apply and see if I could get shortlisted for the interview.

If not, it would just count as a wasted effort.

Who would have thought that a few hours after applying, I would get an interview invitation?

My mind thought back on how I got this opportunity, I adjusted my slim fitting black suit for like the hundredth time. It was already a privilege to be picked out by YTC as an interviewee.

After seeing how the rest of the applicants were dressed, I was already losing my confidence.

It did not help that I had always had inferiority complex, not to mention how low my esteem always was. Unlike some here, I was from a more than regular background. How wouldn't anyone feel nervous and inferior?

Two minutes later, the blonde left the hall with her chin held high.

I almost turned to leave when a voice interrupted my actions.

" Is there anybody else remaining?" The familiar feminist voice called from inside.

Taking a deep breath, I made my way to the door.

After knocking twice, I pushed the door open and the sight before me made me turn cold and stand with my mouth literally agape.

" Miss Smith, we meet again." The man seated behind the table said with a grin.

Flashback

" Come on Isabella, you can't chicken out now. Make your choice already!" Sabrina yelled at the top of her voice. She was always hyperactive.

" That's right Isa, what is it, truth or dare?" Kayla chirped in.

We friends had gone to the popular club called IMAGE to relax and have a few drinks. After all, it was Friday night.

I bit the bottom of my lips. There was no way I would answer the question they were asking.

But choosing a dare might not be a good idea either. My friends were always up to something especially doing mischievous things. I didn't like the sound of this at all. Either way , I knew that it would be impossible to escape them tonight.

" Dare " I finally answered, making Kayla giggle while Sabrina had a smirk on her face.

I was more than familiar with Sabrina's evil smirk, I could already tell that something was cooking inside her mind.

" Kiss the man on your left with a red t-shirt." Sabrina declared, making my eyes widen in disbelief.

I expected a prank from Sabrina, no doubt but not something as serious as kissing a random man.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no Saint at all, at least not with my shady and dark past but even at that, I had never kissed any random man.

" I can't do that!" I refused outrightly. How on earth was I supposed to kiss someone I know nothing about?

" A deal is a deal Isabella, there's no backing from this one." Sabrina was not going to let me go. She was definitely enjoying this.

We had known each other for two years and since then, we had always kept a distance from men.

They had even doubted at some point that I was straight but I told them that my past experience with men caused me to start staying away from them.

Although they did not dig deeper, that didn't mean they didn't want to help their friend overcome whatever fear I had for the opposite gender.

" Alright, I'll do it!" I finally agreed. I knew what my friends aimed for with such an absurd request so I decided to play along.

Jumping off the high table stool I was seated on, I began to take confident strides towards the man described by Sabrina.

Tapping on his shoulder twice, the man turned to look at me and all I could do was gasp at the handsome man that stared me in the eye.

The man looking at me curiously was the most handsome man I had ever seen. His sky blue eyes seemed to pierce straight through my heart.

I gulped. What was wrong with me?

I was against Sabrina's request but seeing the man I was to kiss, I no longer had any hesitation.

' At least he's handsome.' I consoled herself before leaning in and capturing the stranger's lips with her own.

The idea was to kiss him shortly but when I was about to pull away, the man's hands snaked around my waist, pulling me into his arms before he deepened the kiss.

What was meant to be short and brief turned out to be a passionate fight of dominance.

From the intensity of the kiss, I could tell that the man was a pro when it came to kissing.

After almost a minute of kissing, the two of us pulled away, our gazes locked together.

I was lost in his deep blue eyes, that's until the whole club burst out cheering and clapping.

Looking around, all eyes were fixated on me. I immediately panicked, turning around and running out of the club.

Kayla and Sabrina had teased me all the way home, making me regret agreeing to the truth and dare game in the first place.

End of flashback.

I shook my head, dispelling all the memories of what happened that night before I finally composed myself..

" I don't know what you are talking about Sir." I decided that I was going to play dumb. I would not admit to meeting him. I would simply just pretend to have no idea of what he was talking about. It was night and although the lights were on, they were dim. There is no way he could have recognized me, I thought confidently.

" Do you two know each other?" The woman seated next to the man asked, her eyes darting between I and the man.

" No."

" Yes."

We answered simultaneously, making the lady smile secretly.

" Take a seat, you are the last candidate for this interview." The woman announced.

I didn't know if I should proceed with the interview or just flee.

But won't that prove to the man that I was lying?

With that in mind, I took confident strides before settling on the chair facing the woman.

" Can I see your CV?" The woman inquired and I passed her the file in my hands.

While the woman went through my papers, I could not help but sneak a peek at the man besides the lady, he was handsome and I couldn't deny it.

Our gazes collided, making me look away almost immediately.

For some reason, my heart was beating impossibly fast.

" I think we just found the perfect candidate for your offer, president." The woman announced with a smile but her words were like a bombshell to me. What did she just say?

" President!" My mouth hung low with disbelief.

" Oh, allow me to introduce myself. I am Samantha Lewis and this is Justin Noble, the CEO of YTC."

The lady named Samantha introduced him.

If I was shocked earlier, I was now astounded by the news.

Did that mean the man I had kissed the other night is none other than Justin Noble?

Turning to look at the man, he had a playful smile on his face.

" As I was saying, you are hired for the position of secretary. Remember, you are the personal assistant of president Justin and when I mean personal, you have to agree to whatever it is he wants." Samantha said, making my eyes widen. I wasn't sure if I heard clearly or if I was the one misinterpreting what she had just said.

" To cut the story short, I want you to be my wife."

I stood at the edge of the freezing pond on the Boone estate, my body trembling with a fear that rattled my bones. Across from me, Amanda Olsen looked immaculate in her cashmere coat, a sharp contrast to the jagged reality I was trying to hold together. "Why?" I whispered. Amanda just smiled, admitting she killed Grandpa Boone because he actually liked me. She pulled out a thick envelope-divorce papers Cordero had signed that morning. She told me he called me a parasite and was celebrating with her the night I suffered a miscarriage. Before I could even scream, Amanda lunged and shoved me into the icy water. My heavy wool coat acted like a sponge, dragging me into the artificial abyss. I thrashed and gasped for air, but Amanda just stood on the bank, watching me drown with her hands tucked casually in her pockets. As my lungs burned and the darkness closed in, I realized I had spent my entire marriage taking their abuse. I was the "foster trash" and the "gold digger" who let them win every single time. I was dying alone, hated by the husband I had tried so hard to love, while my murderer stood victorious on the shore. I never fought back. I just let them destroy me. Then, a violent spasm tore through my body. I sat up gasping, sucking in dry, air-conditioned oxygen instead of murky pond water. I wasn't dead. I was back in the opulent master suite, surrounded by red rose petals and wedding decorations. The digital clock glowed: October 14, 2019. I had gone back five years to the very night my nightmare began. The bathroom door clicked open, and Cordero stepped out, looking at me with the same cold disgust I remembered. But as I gripped the silk sheets, a new resolve hardened in my chest. This time, I wasn't going to be the victim. This time, the Boone family was going to find out exactly what happens when you push someone too far.

"Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable. Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it. "We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not." Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child. "The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs." A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life" "Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge. Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead. Stefan Sterling knows the sting of betrayal too. His father discarded him like trash. Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal: Marry for vengeance. Crush their fathers' legacies. Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything. Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?

I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.
