The Bride Of The Proxy Billionaire Chapter 1 Author's Note

First of all, thank you for clicking on this story, it honestly means more than you know. There are so many books out there, and the fact that you chose to stop here, even for a moment, means a lot.

I'm still learning my way around Mobo Reader I'm figuring out how the app works, how readers interact, and how to keep up with updates. So, if you're reading this early on, you're part of the beginning of my journey here. You're helping me build something from the ground up.

I'll be releasing chapters in small batches - sometimes two a day if I can but I don't want to rush it. I'd rather give you something complete and worth reading than something that feels half done. I'm balancing real life and writing, so please bear with me.

If you enjoy what you read, leaving a short comment, a vote, or even a simple emoji really helps. It keeps the story visible to others and reminds me that people are actually following along. Every small interaction counts more than you think.

Right now, I'm focused on consistency. I want to keep the flow steady and make sure you don't have to wait too long for the next update. I'm also working on keeping the chapters clean, improving my pacing, and staying true to the characters. Writing online is a learning process, and I'm taking it one chapter at a time.

I know every author says this, but I really mean it:your support matters.When you leave a comment, I see it.When you vote, it helps more than you realize.Those small moments of encouragement make me want to keep writing, even on the days when it's hard.

This story might not be perfect, but it's honest. Every chapter is written with effort and thought. Some parts may move fast, others a bit slower but that's how stories breathe. I hope, somewhere in between, you find something that sticks with you.

PREFACE

Before you start, I want to say this clearly:

This is a work of fiction.

Everything you'll read - the names, places, businesses, and events comes from imagination. Some details may feel familiar, but they're not taken from real life. Any resemblance to real people, living or dead, or to actual events, is purely coincidental.This story is meant for entertainment. It's not based on anyone's personal life or experiences.

I decided to include this note because I know how easily people connect fiction to reality, and I'd rather say it upfront. The goal here is just to tell a story. Nothing more, nothing less.

Thank you again for giving this a chance. Whether you read one chapter or stay till the end, I appreciate you being here. I'm learning, improving, and building this story in real time, and having even one reader who sticks around makes it worth it.

So, welcome.

Enjoy the story, take your time with it, and feel free to share your thoughts as you read along.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.
