THE BILLIONAIRES CELEBRITY WIFE

The Discarded Heiress: Marrying My Lethal Husband

Xiao Wang

The rain in Detroit was slick with grime when my family finally came to fetch me. They didn't want a reunion; they wanted a sacrificial lamb to marry into the Kaufman empire to save their failing business. I thought I was just being sold off, but the limo ride ended under a dark overpass where six hired thugs were waiting with chains. My own sister had ordered them to "break my spirit" so I’d be a shaking, pathetic mess by the time I reached the altar. They called me "Detroit trash" and sprayed air freshener when I sat on their leather seats. My stepmother wanted a video of me begging for my life, and my father was ready to trade me like a used car to a man everyone called a "vegetable." They expected a submissive country girl, unaware that I was a high-level "cleaner" who could snap a radius bone before they could even scream. When I finally reached the Kaufman estate, I found my fiancé, Barron, slumped in a wheelchair, drooling and silent. But as soon as the doors closed, the "invalid" grabbed my wrist with a grip of iron and whispered a command that changed everything. I didn't understand why my own blood was so desperate to see me destroyed. What had I ever done to deserve a hit squad and a forced marriage to a man they thought was a corpse? But Barron isn't a vegetable, and I'm not a victim. We just touched down at the Moon family gala in a matte-black helicopter, and as the doors slide open, the "broken" bride is about to show them exactly what happens when you throw away the wrong daughter. "If we're going to crash a party," Barron whispered, his eyes burning with lethal clarity, "we should make an entrance."

It was a breezy Saturday morning; the sun was up, and rays of sunlight forced themselves through the window, casting a beautiful golden light on Laura, who was lying lazily on her bed curled up like a kitten.

Ding!

Her phone beeped. It was a message from her best friend, Anna.

Anna: Good morning, sunshine. I've got something for you.

Laura texted her back. "What do you want? I thought you were going to your aunt's wedding today."

Anna: Yeah, sure. I'm still going. Don't worry about me. There's this fantastic app that I came across. I'll send you the link. I think you'll like it. (Link).

She didn't speak of matchmaking, just as usual. It was surprising; Anna always liked to play matchmaker for her. It always excited her. Of course, Laura always refused to play along with her after breaking up with her first boyfriend two years ago. She had refused to date any other guy and even started keeping her distance from men.

Anna was afraid that she was developing voluntary celibacy and worried that Laura might not find a husband. She had set Laura up on dinner dates which always turned out bad.

Laura understood her worry, but she didn't care anyway. She wanted to be a celebrity; her career was what mattered to her, and she wasn't even the slightest bit interested in being in a relationship now.

She opened the link on her app store. "Oh, it seems like it's too early to judge that damn Anna." She stared at the app, looking amused. It was a dating app. "Find your soulmate," she sighed. "I should have known that Anna was up to no good."

She clicked the download button on her app store; she was bored anyway and wasn't going anywhere today. Besides, the app had a high rating, piquing her interest.

She waited patiently for the app to download before opening it. The first thing she thought when she opened it was that the developers were quite capable. Its interface and functionality were all top-notch.

She created an account and named herself "The lonely snow," then she used a picture of her dog, a Lhasa Apso. It looked very cute with a funny expression. She started scrolling through the app and came across a peculiar name, "The ugly monkey king."

"What a peculiar name," she thought. She decided to send him a friend request. He accepted immediately.

Ugly monkey king: Hi

Lonely snow: Hello

Ugly monkey king: I like your name; it's very unique.

"Wow, he is very straightforward," she thought before typing some words.

Lonely snow: Yours too; it's very unique.

His name was really unique and funny. She wondered if he was really ugly; how would he look in real life? She became thoughtful and started thinking of meeting him. It was just a small thought at first, but it started getting stronger the more they chatted.

The lonely monkey king doesn't seem to be well-skilled in picking up girls and makes stiff jokes. Laura found it funny. She replied in kind and especially made some jokes about his flirting.
