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

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?"

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

For seventeen years, I was the crown jewel of the Kensington empire, the perfect daughter groomed for a royal future. Then, a cream-colored envelope landed in my lap, bearing a gold crest and a truth that turned my world into ice. The DNA test result was a cold, hard zero percent-I wasn't a Kensington. Before the ink could even dry, my parents invited my replacement, a girl named Alleen, into the drawing room and treated me like a trespasser in my own home. My mother, who once hosted galas in my honor, wouldn't even look me in the eye as she stroked Alleen's arm, whispering that she was finally "safe." My father handed me a one-million-dollar check-a mere tip for a billionaire-and told me to leave immediately to avoid tanking the company's stock price. "You're a thief! You lived my life, you spent my money, and you don't get to keep the loot!" Alleen shrieked, trying to claw the designer jacket off my shoulders while my "parents" watched with clinical detachment. I was dumped on a gritty sidewalk in Queens with nothing but three trunks and the address of a struggling laborer I was now supposed to call "Dad." I traded a marble mansion for a crumbling walk-up where the air smelled of exhaust and my new bedroom was a literal storage closet. My biological family thought I was a broken princess, and the Kensingtons thought they had successfully erased me with a payoff and a non-disclosure agreement. They had no idea that while I was hauling trunks up four flights of stairs, my secret media empire was already preparing to move against them. As I sat on a thin mattress in the dark, I opened my encrypted laptop and sent a single command that would cost my former father ten million dollars by breakfast. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves, but they forgot one thing: I'm the one who leads the pack.

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.
