Awkwardly Charming

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

Brillie's pov

I'm Brillie Starr, obviously the most craziest girl you've ever met or rather seen. I'm eighteen and the only child of my parents.

That's all for now.

It's my first day at Whitney's College and l'm pretty late. I ran as fast as my legs could carry to school.

I stood before the big gate sweating profusely and wiped balls of sweats outta my face.

I opened the gate and saw students hovering around. I actually thought l was late but l'm not, class hasn't even commenced yet.

My eyes moved to the building and l marvelled at the large school, I'm sure mama and papa must have worked so hard to place me in such a large school.

I think l will just have to find my class now. I brought out my map, gazing through it while walking.

I bumped into someone and brought down the map to apologise.

"I'm ... "

"Are you blind? Can't you watch where you are going? "She interrupted brutally and l grunted clenching my fist.

"Bi .. "

"Hold it right there swine! It'll better if you shut that gutter you call a mouth "I said with a scowl on my face.

I stared at her face and quivered.

"Geez ... You look more like a clown. I don't why some girls try to look beautiful when they are actually not "I uttered and walked away while the students laughed.

Now to find my class, I opened the map and bumped into someone again.

"What the hell ... "

"Omg! He looks so handsome, more like an angel "I thought, drooling not knowing l was actually saying it out.

"Crazy "he huffed and walked away.

"Yikes Brillie. You are such an asshole, do you always have to embarrass yourself "I thought and rubbed my palm down my face.

But he's really handsome and l think by bumping into him, we are destined for each other .

Oh mom and dad, thank you for placing me in this school cos l've just found my prince charming.

I grinned, opening the map and found my class.

Finding my prince charming just made my day good than ever!!.

"What just happened? " My friend queried in a mocking tone as l fumed.

Brillie's pov

I placed my books in my locker and was about closing it when it fell.

I bent down to pick it up and someone stepped on my fingers.

"Ouch! "

I groaned loudly and stood up.

I looked up and saw the clown.

"So sorry "

She mocked and walked away.

"Bitch "

I cussed and sucked on my hurt fingers.

I bent down to pick the book when someone stepped on my fingers again and l fumed.

"You coward, l stepped on ... "
