He swore never to love again. She can't even bear to be touched. Frederick Reynolds-27, devastatingly handsome, filthy rich, and CEO of one of Australia's top firms-has everything a man could want. Everything... except peace. After being betrayed by the woman he gave his heart to, Frederick now sees women as nothing more than a means to an end. Love? That's off the table-permanently. Catalina Watson, 24, is a gentle soul wrapped in trauma. Working tirelessly to support her struggling family, she hides a dark secret-androphobia, a crippling fear of men that started at just 13. The only male she can tolerate is her younger brother. Two broken souls from two completely different worlds. When fate throws them into each other's lives, sparks fly-not the good kind. He's cold, blunt, and emotionally scarred. She's guarded, terrified, and ready to fight back. But behind the walls they've both built are wounds that just might need each other to heal. Can love grow where pain lives? Can two damaged hearts find strength in each other? Or will the past be too powerful to escape? Get ready for a fiery, emotional rollercoaster filled with secrets, healing, and the kind of passion that burns through the pain.

Healing The Billionaire's Heart Chapter 1 How It All Began

The grand hall shimmered under crystal chandeliers, filled with people dressed in elegant gowns and tailored suits. A soft piano tune floated through the air as guests mingled, their laughter blending with the clinking of glasses.

At the center of the hall stood a four-tiered cake adorned with golden icing that read, "Happy 24th Birthday, Frederick." The emcee's voice cut through the chatter.

"And here comes the celebrant!"

A spotlight fell on the grand staircase as Frederick descended. Dressed in a navy tuxedo, his hair slicked back and sharp jawline catching the light, he exuded a calm, commanding presence. Every eye in the room followed him.

He stopped at the bottom of the stairs, fixing his gaze on the woman waiting by the cake. Tatiana, in a striking red gown, smiled softly. Frederick took her hand and kissed it before turning to face the crowd.

"Thank you all for coming tonight. I'm honored to have you here," he began, pausing briefly. Then, he turned to Tatiana. "Tatiana... I love you. You've shown me what it means to truly care for someone, and there's no one else I want to share my life with. Will you marry me?"

A hush fell over the hall. All eyes were on her. Frederick went down on one knee, heart pounding.

Tatiana's expression didn't soften. She shook her head. "No."

The silence was deafening. Gasps spread through the crowd. Frederick's chest tightened.

"You... what?" he whispered, barely audible.

"You heard me," Tatiana said coldly. "I'll never marry you. I don't love you. And this-" she gestured to the ring in his hand "-this changes nothing."

Before he could respond, she turned and walked away, leaving him kneeling in stunned silence.

Frederick awoke with a start, sweat on his brow. It had been a dream-a vivid reminder of a painful past.

"Why do I keep dreaming about it?" he muttered, rubbing his face. Morning sunlight streamed through the window, signaling a new day.

Across town, a small, bustling home stirred with life. Catalina peeked into her brother Calvin's room, frowning at the unheeded alarm clock. This was the third time she had come to wake him.

With a smirk, she left, returning moments later with a bucket of cold water. Calvin leapt out of bed with a yelp, spluttering and shaking.

"Your turn to watch the plates," Catalina said, leaving him dripping on the floor.

Calvin groaned, rubbing his head. "Why does everything have to start like this?" he muttered, thinking of his recent dream of a girl he liked.

Breakfast was chaotic but warm. Their mother, Sarah, bustled between plates, smiling at her children's bickering. "Remember, happiness isn't about wealth-it's about what we have together," she said softly.

Calvin perked up. "Mom! The scholarship results are out!"

Catalina raised an eyebrow. "Let's see if you finally bring home a decent score."

Calvin tore open his letter, and his grin fell. "Zero percent?!"

Nelson, his best friend, groaned beside him. "I have one percent... How?"

The two friends slumped, staring at the papers as if the world had betrayed them.

Elsewhere, in a sleek skyscraper, Frederick's black limousine rolled to a stop outside his company. The most successful skincare brand in Australia, his office reflected his wealth and influence.

Inside, Frederick's cold gaze swept the room. Employees moved swiftly, almost fearful of his presence. A secretary approached to remind him of his schedule, but he barely glanced at her. One wrong look from a coworker, and she froze.

He was a man who demanded respect, and everyone in the room knew it.

Catalina, meanwhile, strode toward her workplace, R-R Investment, her rival company to Frederick's. She ignored whispers about her fashion choices, focusing on the day ahead. As she passed two young women on the street, a brief confrontation reminded her that her confidence often attracted attention-sometimes unwanted.

Inside the company, she settled at her desk, glancing at her phone. She hoped for a call from Roman, her boyfriend, but the screen remained silent.

Roman, meanwhile, was busy with business, though his earlier presence with another colleague hinted at complications Catalina would need to navigate carefully.

By the end of the day, Catalina leaned back in her chair, determination in her eyes. Life was complicated, messy, and full of unexpected challenges-but she was ready to face them.

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.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

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.
