I have heard a lot of rumors and gossip about Alexander Reddington - How he had gotten rich at a young age, without any family connection or inherited wealth. I am curious and I wanted to find out the truth. I signed a contract to marry him, In order to investigate. But as I get closer to him, I began to fall in love with him. I was turn between my work and my heart

The undercover journalist Chapter 1 I have signed it

"Don't worry about the rules, I will sign any paper you want me to and I will follow any rules that are put in place"

He looked at me, a flicker of surprise crossing his face. He was clearly not expecting such declaration

"Do you know after signing it, there is no turn back again"

I nodded my head and he gave me the paper, without thinking twice, I signed it and handed it to him.

"I have signed it, now I need to go home to take some of my clothes"

"You do not need to go home, everything you need to live except from your breath is provided in my house, just wait for me here, let me complete what I am doing, then we go home. You are going nowhere, you are mine now" the words chilled down my spine, but never will I regret making the decision.

"What?" I said silently, but regardless I am not going to say No. What I am here to do is more important, signing a six month contract with him is what I have been longing for, now that I have gotten it, I need to handle it with care.

Thirty minutes later, he was done with what he was doing, then we went to his house.

I knew that one of the rules of the contract is that you are always with him throughout the period of the contract.

I went to his house, and it was exactly what people have been saying, the house was marble and gold, there were works of art on every wall, it looked like a museum but luxurious. How can a guy in his twenties accomplish this without connections or any inherited wealth, there must be something behind this and that is what I am here to find out.

I have an account on major social media platforms, with the name Anonymous Investigator. I post accurate information by verifying them before I post.

Nobody knew I was the one behind it except from my friend, Isabella who is also a journalist.

When I informed Isabella that I would be coming here to find out the truth about Alexander, she said she had been waiting for me to announce that because she trusts me to do that. This is no longer a job, but a passion.

My heart beat faster while observing the surroundings. I have been in some pretty impressive houses but nothing had prepared me for this. I smiled because my mission is about to be accomplished and my goal is within my reach.

"What is your name again?" I was drawn back to reality when I heard that.

"Huh! I am Rachel Wilson"

"Alright, Karina, Karina" He called out to one of the maids.

She came out, and bowed her head.

"This is our new Miss, her name is Rachel"

Well, with my research I knew he never had a girlfriend, what he just did was to sign a contract with them for a period of time.

"Rachel, this is Karina, anytime you need anything, just let her know"

"Alright, thank you, Karina, nice to meet you"

"Thank you ma'am, follow me, I will show you your room" She uttered, and I followed her.

"This is your room, anytime you need anything, let me know, I will be coming to check you up"

"Alright" I smiled, and she left.

"Mission is about to be accomplished" I screamed joyfully.

It was getting late already, Karina called me to go and eat at the dining room.

I went to the Dining and saw Alexander opening the food.

He ate three spoons and went to the dining room.

"Maybe he is not hungry" I said silently.

I wonder why they had cooked so much food just for the two of us, this is giving me reason to keep suspecting him. Why would he allow them to cook this much if he would only eat three spoons?

"Why is he not eating?" I was forced to ask from the maids.

"He do not eat much, today he ate three spoon and sometimes he won't even eat it"

I nodded my head.

I ate a lot of food I could consume, because I can't even stand wasting all of that food.

I went to my room thinking of ways I could access him more, though, I am living in his house, but he doesn't seem to want to have anything to do with me.

I was still thinking when I heard a knock on my door, "Open" I said.

It was Karina.

"How are you doing?" I asked

"Fine, master said he needs you in his room, do you mind showing you his room"

"Yes" I said sharply and we both went to his room, when I was about to enter, she left.

I froze at the door because I was drawn by his look. He is tall with a broad shoulder and a slim waist.

When I entered, he was putting on a white singlet and a pink boxer. I can't help but admire him, I was unable to take my eyes away from him

I stared at him for about two minutes before I was drawn to reality.

"Karina said you need me" I tried sounding confidently.

"Yes, come closer"

He was sitting at the bed, I knew he was up to something, still I went closer.

I was putting on a short shirt and he used one of his hands to unbutton them, he brought one of my boobs out from the shirt and sucked.

I wanted to stop him, this isn't what I am here for, I have a boyfriend, but I didn't stop him because I have to go miles to find out the truth.

"Ouch ouch" I faked my moarn

Two minutes later, I said "Why don't we drink, so we can get high then do whatever we want"

He thought about it, and replied "No problem, go and get a drink at the living room"

I rushed out to the living room and took an alcoholic drink.

While heading to his office earlier today, I had a sleeping tablet kept in my pocket.

So I grinded it and mixed it with the drink, and I took the drink to his room.

Without thinking twice, he drank it.

"Tonight, I will deal with you" He said and laughed broadly.

"I am ready for you too" I smiled.

I watched him sleep, and I began to check his drawer if there was anything I could find as evidence against his rapid wealth. Just then he stirred and opened his eyes.

"What are you doing there?"

I stood at my mother's open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest's voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone-he brought Charla with him. He claimed she'd had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

The Silent Bride's Billion Dollar Contract

Landslide

My bank account showed exactly $42.18, and my student loan notifications were flashing red. I lived in a sweltering Queens apartment with my Aunt Lydia, where the air was thick with the smell of stale frying oil and the constant threat of being homeless. Lydia handed me a grainy photo of a man twice my age and told me she had already "sold" me to him. He was a dry cleaner looking for a wife, and in exchange for my hand, he would pay off her credit cards and my debt. If I didn't show up for the date that night, my boxes would be on the curb by midnight. I arrived at the cafe in a state of panic, my selective mutism making it impossible to even breathe. In the crowded room, I accidentally sat at the wrong table. Instead of the man from the photo, I found myself facing Gerhard Holcomb—the cold, terrifyingly handsome billionaire whose family owned the very museum where I worked. He didn't send me away; instead, he studied my trembling hands and offered me a different deal: a two-year contract marriage, a two-million-dollar payout, and a strict clause forbidding any children. I signed the papers and moved into his Park Avenue penthouse, thinking I was finally safe. But when I went back to the old apartment to retrieve the only memento of my dead parents, Lydia lashed out, leaving me bleeding from a head wound. Gerhard’s retaliation was absolute—he had her arrested and her building foreclosed on within hours, claiming he was simply "protecting his assets." As I recovered in his silent, glass-walled home, I saw a call from a famous socialite flash on his phone, and a cold truth settled in my gut. I wasn't just a wife; I was a placeholder, a silent shield used to fend off the women from his past. I looked at the massive pink diamond on my finger and realized the silence I had lived in my whole life was about to become my most expensive prison. I had traded a life of poverty for a high-stakes game of shadows, and now I had to survive the man who claimed to own me.

He Thought I Was A Doormat, Until I Ruined Him

SHANA GRAY

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
