Now he's threatening to seize the bakery" ---- ......Laura dropped to her knees, tears sliding down her cheeks. "I only want to work for you so you can extend the time you gave my family on the bakery, If you take it away, we won't know how else to survive" "And you think I give a hoot how you survive?" Jacob fired at her with his voice echoing the room like lightning. ******************** Laura Bloom's family were stuck in an aging debt to Jacob Marcini, a cold-hearted, ruthless billionaire who threatened to seize their last hope of survival, which was a small bakery they owned. In order to help her family, Laura was forced to work for Jacob Marcini as his secretary in his company in agreement that her salaries would be held in order to fix up the debt. But then, Jacob was involved in a scandal which needed to be cleared, else his reputation and that of his company would be dented. The callous billionaire had no alternative than to offer Laura a proposal, he would wipe off the debt but in return she would act as his bride. How could she act as the bride to a man who caused her family so much pain? Was she willing to put aside the abhor and do what he wanted to clear off her debt? Read on to find out?”
