When Love Strikes Hard

The Convict Heiress: Marrying The Billionaire

The Convict Heiress: Marrying The Billionaire

Rollins Laman
The heavy thud of the release stamp was the only goodbye I got from the warden after five years in federal prison. I stepped out into the blinding sun, expecting the same flash of paparazzi bulbs that had seen me dragged away in handcuffs, but there was only a single black limousine idling on the shoulder of the road. Inside sat my mother and sister, clutching champagne and looking at my frayed coat with pure disgust. They didn't offer a welcome home; instead, they tossed a thick legal document onto the table and told me I was dead to the city. "Gavin and I are getting engaged," my sister Mia sneered, flicking a credit card at me like I was a stray dog. "He doesn't need a convict ex-fiancée hanging around." Even after I saved their lives from an armed kidnapping attempt by ramming the attackers off the road, they rewarded me by leaving me stranded in the dirt. When I finally ran into Gavin, the man who had framed me, he pinned me against a wall and threatened to send me back to a cell if I ever dared to show my face at their wedding. They had stolen my biotech research, ruined my name, and let me rot for half a decade while they lived off my brilliance. They thought they had broken me, leaving me with nothing but an expired chapstick and a few old photos in a plastic bag. What they didn't know was that I had spent those five years becoming "Dr. X," a shadow consultant with five hundred million dollars in crypto and a secret that would bring the city to its knees. I wasn't just a victim anymore; I was a weapon, and I was pregnant with the heir they thought they had erased. I walked into the Melton estate and made an offer to the most powerful man in New York. "I'll save your grandfather's life," I told Horatio Melton, staring him down. "But the price is your last name. I'm taking back what's mine, and I'm starting with the man who thinks he's marrying my sister."

A black luxurious Ferrari droved into the estate,and a guy in who looked in his early twenty's, gets out of the car, wearing a tailored suit in a dark color, like navy or charcoal.

The suit is expensive and well-fitting, and the shoes are polished and expensive-looking.

His hair is neat and well-styled, and he exudes an air of confidence and sophistication.

His eyes drawn upward,at the big house, its whitewashed walls gleaming in the sunlight.

He let out the most charming smile ever before began walking to the house.

At the edge of the property, admiring the sweeping lawns, the rows of tall, perfectly trimmed trees, and the smooth, elegant facade of the house.

The garden looks like something out of a painting, with its neat flowerbeds and perfectly trimmed hedges.

He could hear the chirping of the birds, the rustling of leaves, and the gentle breeze through the trees. The sun is warm on my face, and he can smell the subtle scent of roses wafting from the garden.

As he approach the front door, he take in the scent of roses wafting from the nearby garden. The house is indeed overcome by a sense of peace and serenity as you reach for the brass doorknob and enter the main house.

He was welcomed by the elegance of the space, The walls are lined with marble and a crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling.

There is a sweeping staircase leading to the second floor, and a large mirror reflects the sunlight streaming through the windows. The floor is tiled in a rich, dark wood, and the air is scented with the aroma of roses.

To the left of the foyer,is a long hallway and at the end of the hallway,and at the end of the hallways is a sets of double doors.

He take a deep breath, and gently push one of the doors open.The room beyond is bathed in light, and you're greeted by the sight of a massive mahogany desk, complete with leather chairs and a stately bookshelf.

Beyond the desk, spotted a door leading into another room.

The room beyond is clearly the master bedroom. The bed is enormous, covered in a plush, navy blue comforter. Floor-to-ceiling windows overlook a verdant garden, and a walk-in closet beckons from the far wall.

The room is immaculate, and everything seems to be in its proper place.

The guys eyes fell on a figure lazilly stretched under a thick duvets.

"Boss!!!" He finally announced his presence and a figure pushed the duvets off his body at once and his face came to view.

His slightly dazed expression on his face as he slowly opens his eyes. He blinks a few times, trying to get his bearings.

Even in his disheveled state, the man is undeniably handsome.

His dark hair is tousled, framing his face in a way that only enhances his chiseled features. His strong jawline is lightly dusted with stubble, and his cheekbones are prominent and striking.

Even though he's wearing a simple white t-shirt and a pair of loose sweatpants, there's no mistaking the fact that he's a man of privilege and power. His brown eyes are piercing and intense.

Why won't he has all this features??

Leonardo Hernandez, twenty five, the only heir to the Hernandez family,the richest and most famous family in New Zealand and the youngest CEO in the country.

Not even the president dares not to speak,when it's comes to them.

Since thier dad's death. He took over almost all the property.

Not because he's the only child,he has two sisters. Josephine and Mikaela.

Josephine is the eldest,she's 31 and happily married,she's staying in Australia managing thier business over there.

While Mikaela Is just 19,a college student. She's staying in the same house with Leonardo.

"Good morning!" Princeton bowed and Leonardo only nodded

"Don't tell me it's already time?" Leonardo asks, his voice low and slightly rough from sleep.

"Sorry boss! It's pasted the time given" Princeton,His PA replied

Leonardo graoned and sat by the edge of the bed. He put his feet on the floor and reached under the bed for his plush slippers. He slipped them on, and stood up, stretching his arms over his head, and made his way over to Princeton.

Leonardo took the tablet from Princeton, who smiled and bowed slightly.

"So what am I supposed to do? Am I really needed at the meeting? I fell like staying home all day" He yawned as he scroll through the tablets.

Princeton only smile as he makes sure to maintain one metre away from him as he followed him out.

"A new game has finally been launched and it's can't be announced yet if you aren't present,you don't have to say a word. All they need is you" Princeton explained

"New game? Why don't I know about this?"

Princeton made to show him but he stopped him.

"I'll just see it for myself at the meeting,wait for me downstairs! I'll join you in few minutes" He returned the tablet and shoved his hands in his pocket,heading back to his room.

Princeton was making his way to the living room, when he sight Mikaela eating alone at the dining room.

"Princeton!" Mikaela waved at him and immediately stood,and rushed to him

"Ma'am Mika!" Princeton bowed and Mikaela frowned

"I thought I told you to stop bowing and addressing me as ma'am or miss,Just call me Mikaela or Micky!" She said

"I'm sorry ma'am,I really can't do that!" Princeton bowed again

"Is it because of my brother? I promise he won't get mad if he found out, or you can simply call me by my name when we're together alone" She smile hoping he'll just do it.

She badly wanna hear how her name will sound in his cute lips.

Leonardo showed up that minutes,he's already dressed.

"You're still here?" Leonardo turned to Mikaela.

Mikaela rolled her eyes and went back to her seat.

"Eat with me! I don't wanna eat alone! Again?" She pouted

Leonardo checked his watch before facing her.

"I know it's gonna be No! Again? You can leave,I'm used to this anyway" She muttered sadly

"I'm sorry Micky? I'll make it up to you later ok?" Leonardo stroke her hair and she gave him a smile in return

"Take care and don't stay out late" He added and starts to walk out. Princeton immediately followed him.

Mikaela eyes followed him till he was out of sight.

"I wonder why he never smiles at me? Does he hates me?" She mumbled and her phone rang at once.

It's from her friends.

❃✧❃✧❃

"No! Please!!!"

"Please! No!!"

"Don't do this!"

"I'm begging you... please!!"

The alarm began ringing and the sound woke Lyric. She sat up turning her face to the widow side.

The sun warmed my face, and the breeze lifted the hair from her neck,Her beauty and innocent face came to view.

She just had a dream of her that tormenting night again. She's use to it,and sometimes wish it's really turned out to be a nightmare but.

Something suddenly rang in her head and she immediately get off the bed. She ran out,entering the room next to hers.

She dashed into the room and met Granny Lupe, already cleaning the room.

"Nanny! Why are they still sleeping? It's pasted 7!" She exclaimed, attempting to wake Pearl and Starr.

Her two kids.

"It's Saturday, there's no school....." Granny Lupe said

Lyric moved back

"That's true,can't believe I forgot that again!" She ruffled her hair
