The Placeholder Bride's Secret Billionaire Revenge

The Placeholder Bride's Secret Billionaire Revenge

Luo Ye
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.

A Visit from My Obsessor

 

A private jet landed at Indira Gandhi International Airport. As the packing apron was emptied for the arrival of a very special guest.

 

Six men dressed in an all-black suit and leather shoes waited patiently by the Maybach Exelero packed in front of the plane for the arrival of India's most special guest.

 

Letting down the air stairs, the six men immediately went towards the airplane and waited by the stairs to welcome him.

 

Putting on his glasses and facemask, he got off the plane and went straight to the black Maybach Exelero, not waiting or responding to the greetings of the scout men who followed beside him.

 

"Sir," the driver greeted him immediately as he sat down in the car.

 

"To the Baljiwan mansion." He ordered his eyes to never leave the iPad in his hands.

 

The driver bowed his head a little from the front of the car in acknowledgement before he started the car and drove out of the packing apron to the location given to him.

****

 

Everyone's attention turned to the luxurious car that entered the Baljiwan compound with speed. Stopping in front of the mansion, the driver came out of the car and opened the back door of the car.

 

Everyone held their breath as they waited patiently to see who was going to come out of the car.

 

Placing his foot on the ground, he sucked in a breath before coming out of the car. He looked around a bit, gripping the golden bracelet tightly in his palm.

 

He dipped his other hands into his pocket before trying to make his way through the media, who now crowded themselves around him, their cameras flashing, curious to know who the sudden guest was.

 

From inside the mansion, the commotion the media was making outside could be heard.

 

Getting up from his seat, Mr. Baljiwan excused himself from the ceremony to check exactly what was going on outside.

 

Mr. Baljiwan stepped out of his mansion with fur written all over his face.

 

He came into contact with a man standing in front of his mansion, his hands dipping into his pocket, as some men dressed in all black tried to stop the media from getting any more forward than they already were.

 

Going towards the man, he stopped in front of him and looked up, murmuring a few curse words at the height difference between them.

 

" Yes!  And who are you, young man? ung man?"  He asked.

 

He narrowed his eyes at him, raising an eyebrow before taking off the mask and eyeglasses he had on.

 

He stared blankly at the old man in front of him as his eyes widen in realization.

 

Mr. Baljiwan stayed rooted to his spot, shocked, not believing the presence of the person he was standing in front of.

 

Cleaning his hands unconsciously on his suit, he stepped a little bit forward and extended his hands for a handshake.

 

He stared down at the old man's hand, then back up at his face, making the man shift slightly on his spot before taking his hand out of his pocket and accepting the handshake.

 

The old man blew out a breath of relief before forcing a smile on his lips and then quickly withdrawing his hands to his side after the handshake.

 

"Mr. Ethan, please, to whom do I owe this pleasure?" He asked.

 

but only got shunned as Ethan put his hands back into his pocket and walked past him, making his way into the mansion, leaving him behind.

 

Mr. Baljiwan stood there, shocked, for the second time in just a few minutes.

 

Turning towards the door, he couldn't help but wonder what the great Ethan was doing in his house. Was he here for business or the ceremony? He wonder.

 

Meanwhile, inside the mansion, the couple attending the ceremony were getting ready to take their vows in front of the priest and the holy fire.

 

The priest raised the mangalsutra before giving it to the groom to tie around his bride-to-be's neck.

 

Disha smiled as she closed her eyes, ready for her husband to place his claim around her neck.
