A love twisting story chronicling Gray Muller, a young billionaire with great achievement As he found himself in love with two secret sisters having in mind to marry both of them. But his parents disagree and revealed to him their long standing family legacy which must be strictly obeyed: Monogamy. Gray muller found a new strategy by the help of his mother in searching for his true lover among the sisters.

Chapter 1 Emily at NovaTech

Gray Muller sat deep in thought, resting on his swivel chair as he rolled gently from side to side in his office. His mind raced with strategies to uphold NovaTech's sterling reputation-two years as the city's top-rated company was no small feat, and he was determined to keep it that way. A pen twirled absentmindedly in his fingers, his focus shifting from idea to idea.

A soft knock at the door broke his concentration.

"Come in," he said, sitting up straight to greet the visitor.

Rachel, one of his staff, stepped in. "Good day, sir. An applicant named Emily is here to see you. Should I let her in?"

Gray gave a simple nod, his expression unreadable.

Moments later, a young woman entered the office, clutching a neatly folded letter in her hands. Gray's eyes met hers, and for a moment, he paused.

"She's beautiful... though she seemed a little inexperienced", he thought, his gaze lingering as she approached.

"Good day, sir. I'm Emily John, the applicant. Here's my letter of application," she said confidently, extending the envelope.

Gray took it slowly, impressed by her poise. She hadn't even been interviewed yet, but something about her confidence struck him.

"I'll review your application shortly," he replied with authority, leaning back in his chair. "I trust your contact details are included?"

"Yes, sir. Thank you for considering my request," Emily said with a hopeful smile before turning to leave. Her stride was calm but assertive.

Gray's eyes followed her as she walked away, an involuntary smile tugging at the corner of his lips as the door closed behind her.

Gray's POV

Once Emily was gone, I blinked twice, snapping back to the moment as I glanced at her letter. Her handwriting was neat, her words articulate, and her insights into software development impressive. I nodded as I read-she had potential.

She could bring real value to NovaTech, I thought, setting the letter carefully on my desk. But as I leaned back again, her confident smile replayed in my mind. I tried to shake it off, rubbing my face. Focus, Gray.

I stood and decided to make my usual rounds-especially to check in on Lyra, my most trusted marketer.

Gray strode confidently into the marketing department. His tuxedo was sharp, his curls neatly trimmed, his presence instantly commanding attention. The staff greeted him in chorus.

He turned his attention to Lyra, who barely glanced up, too focused on her computer screen-but the sparkle in her eyes gave her away.

"Lyra, any progress since our last talk?" Gray asked, his tone softer than usual, making several staff members glance at each other knowingly.

"Yes, sir. I made a significant sale this morning," she replied proudly.

Gray nodded, pleased. "Well done."

He returned to his office and picked up the phone, dialing the number on Emily's application.

"Hello, Emily John. This is Gray Muller, CEO of NovaTech. I've reviewed your letter, and I'm pleased to inform you that your application has been approved. We look forward to welcoming you to the software development team tomorrow. Congratulations."

He ended the call, placing the phone gently back on its cradle. He was known for being strict, even ruthless-but when it came to Lyra, his staff had seen another side of him. Some envied her, others were simply curious. She was the only female employee who made the stoic CEO smile with ease.

Emily's Thoughts

I nearly jumped with excitement when the call ended. I got in! NovaTech!

The very name inspired awe in the city. Their record-breaking innovations and quality services made them a dream employer. I was ecstatic. I rushed to my wardrobe, picking out my best outfit-something sharp but simple, perfect for a first day at work.

Tomorrow couldn't come fast enough.

My love for software started in childhood. I used to take apart gadgets just to see how they worked. I taught myself programming, built apps, and even tried a startup once.

My strength lies in precision-I don't like loose ends. That drive sometimes makes me seem aloof or distant, but it's only because I give everything my full focus. People often misunderstand intensity, but I believe it's what makes excellence possible.

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.

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
