When ivory went on her monthly hike also known as her "date with nature" did she ever imagine stumbling upon a body of a man, in a suit lying face down, at the start of her hike to her favourite spot...

Chapter 1 The Emergency department

NURSE KIM......NURSE KIM...

*silence*

all that Abby heard after she called out was the sound of her own breathing.

Abby scanned the whole area and no sign of Kim the head nurse, she thought to herself

'How is it that she is always missing when things get busy'

she took a deep breath and slowly released it with her eyes closed trying to calm herself

as soon as she opened her eyes her phone started ringing, she rolled her eyes, cleared her throat 'ahem'...

and in her most calm voice, she said 'hello nurse Abby speaking'......' WHY ARE YOU STILL

NOT BACK'...Abby moved the phone away from her ear and Phoebe was still yelling...'HOW IS IT THAT YOU CAN NEVER

GET ANYTHING I ASK OF YOU DONE, MY 80-YEAR-OLD GRANDMA MOVES FASTER THAN YOU, GET...BACK...HERE NOW!!'

*silence*

'ABBY......remember why you took these extra shifts' she said to herself as she fought the urge to lose it for the gazillion times this week.

Although Abby had worked previously in the ED she hated the department, it was the only place she thought she would never voluntarily work at, yet

here she was, developing anger issues and constantly being yelled at by nurses, patients and doctors. She usually works as a scrub nurse in general surgery 4 days a week

in the mornings and in afternoons she was at her second job, but due to financial issues, she has had to pick up extra shifts in the ED as two nurses are on maternity leave and she needs the money.

*at the nursing station*

Phoebe was on the phone with Dr Park, giving him a handover from nurse Kim who left early due to a family emergency, while documenting patient admissions,

soon enough she got off the phone and started scanning for Nurse Abby who had yet to return. She spotted Nurse John: ''nurse John before you leave, can you please complete a set of observations for the male patient in the yellow seat!'

'sure' John replied.

As John was preparing the treatment room, Phoebe added 'the department snail has yet to return, who knows which country she is taking a detour in' *eye roll*

John understood who she was referring to and he just nodded and proceeded to call the patient in.

John was aware of phoebe's snide comments, in fact, he was maybe even immune to them.

Abby and Phoebe were actually childhood friends. They grew up in the same town, went to the same schools and even studied nursing together at the same university. They were close most of their lives even though they had completely different upbringings and circumstances. Although Phoebe was not rich, she came from a middle-class well off family where she was the only child, so she was a little more carefree and sometimes a little entitled, whereas Abby lived with her grandparents and her little brother after the disappearance of their mother, her father passed away when she was 10yrs old. This meant she also had a lot of responsibilities.

They started drifting at the end of high school and even more so in their first year of university, while phoebe was busy partying and making friends, Abby was busy working different part-time jobs

*cleaner

you name it she has done it all. She not only had to put herself through school she had to look after her brother to help her aging grandparents all the while keeping her grades up

THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: MARRY TO RIVAL'S SON

"Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable. Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it. "We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not." Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child. "The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs." A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life" "Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge. Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead. Stefan Sterling knows the sting of betrayal too. His father discarded him like trash. Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal: Marry for vengeance. Crush their fathers' legacies. Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything. Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?

I woke up in a blindingly white hotel penthouse with a throbbing headache and the taste of betrayal in my mouth. The last thing I remembered was my stepsister, Cathie, handing me a flute of champagne at the charity gala with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Now, a tall, dangerously handsome man walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips. On the nightstand sat a stack of hundred-dollar bills. My stepmother had finally done it—she drugged me and staged a scandal with a hired escort to destroy my reputation and my future. "Aisha! Is it true you spent the night with a gigolo?" The shouts of a dozen reporters echoed through the heavy oak door as camera flashes exploded through the peephole. My phone lit up with messages showing my bank accounts were already frozen. My father was invoking the 'morality clause' in my mother’s trust fund, and my fiancé had already released a statement dumping me to marry my stepsister instead. I was trapped, penniless, and being hunted by the press for a scandal I hadn't even participated in. My own family had sold me out for a payday, and the man standing in front of me was the only witness who could prove I was innocent—or finish me off for good. I didn't have time to cry. According to the fine print of the trust, I had thirty days to prove my "rehabilitation" through a legal marriage or I would lose everything. I tracked the man down to a coffee shop the next morning, watching him take a thick envelope of cash from a wealthy older woman. I sat across from him and slid a napkin with a $50,000 figure written on it. "I need a husband. Legal, paper-signed, and convincing." He looked at the number, then at me, a slow, crooked smile spreading across his face. I thought I was hiring a desperate gigolo to save my inheritance. I had no idea I was actually proposing to Dominic Fields, the reclusive billionaire shark who was currently planning a hostile takeover of my father’s entire empire.
