Chapter 1

My Oliver Group went bankrupt, my father jumped from the building, and my fiancé, Connor Dale, sent me to the psychiatric hospital.

He came to see me with a wedding invitation. He was getting married to my step-sister, Madeline Oliver. He said with a smile, "Brenna, everything your family has, including your business achievement, belongs to us now."

I died with hatred on that cold hospital bed. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back before all the tragedies had happened.

When Madeline came to recognize her identity to me, I slapped her across the face and said, "Get lost!"

When Connor, the scumbag, proposed to me, I tore up the engagement contract in front of everyone. "Who do you think you are?"

This time, I proactively walked up to Jacob Harrison, who was said to be cold-hearted and ruthless and controlled the entire business empire.

Everyone feared him, but only I knew that he held my gravestone for a whole night after I died in a fire in my previous life.

...

"Marry me." My voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap, resonating through Jacob's office on the top floor.

"Miss Oliver, do you know who you're speaking to?" Jacob's assistant, Richard Norris, looked at me in disbelief through his gold-rimmed glasses, as if I were a lunatic.

I ignored Richard and walked straight to the giant desk. Placing my hands on its edge, I stared directly at Jacob sitting in the shadow.

It was Jacob.

No one dared to mention his name in the business world in my previous life.

He built the Harrison Group alone. He was ruthless, cold, and unfeeling, like a tyrant whom everyone else was fearful of.

But only I knew that he held my icy tombstone for the whole night in the heavy snow after I died.

Jacob was expressionless. His deep, icy eyes were like a frozen lake, with no ripples.

He simply stared at me, as though inspecting an inanimate object.

"Why?" He finally asked. His voice was colder than I had imagined.

"Because I can give you the core technology of the Oliver family, and I know the next move of your biggest competitor, the Dale Group. And because..." I paused and leaned forward slightly. I lowered my voice as I said, "... I know where the one you've been looking for all this time is."

The air seemed to freeze.

Jacob's gaze finally changed. The frozen surface of the lake cracked open, and he gave a sharp, dangerous gaze.

Richard's face changed dramatically, and he almost instinctively tried to move forward.

Jacob raised his hand and stopped Richard. "Continue."

"Marry me, and I'll help you get everything you want. And you have to help me protect the Oliver family and destroy Connor."

Connor was my fiancé, who seemed to love me dearly.

I felt a sharp pain just as I thought of his name. My hatred felt like a sharp knife carving through my flesh.

Jacob leaned back in his chair. His long fingers gently tapped on the desk. The sound was dull but piercing, like a drumbeat, echoing in my heart.

"Brenna Oliver, the daughter of the Oliver family, and Connor's fiancée. I've heard you're headstrong, domineering, and reckless, and you are willing to do everything for Connor." He was stating facts, with a hint of mockery in his tone. "So it seems the rumors are wrong."

I smiled, but my warmth didn't reach my eyes. "The rumors say that you're cold and heartless and never interested in women. It doesn't seem true, either."

My gaze fell on a photo beside him. The frame was turned upside down so I couldn't see the photo.

But I knew that it was his younger sister. He had searched for her for ten years and never saw her again before her death.

And I knew where she was.

Jacob's gaze turned icy suddenly. The temperature in the office seemed to drop by several degrees. "You have guts."

"I have nothing left, only guts."

We locked eyes, like two beasts facing off. We were testing each other's boundaries.

After a long pause, he picked up the internal phone. "Have the Legal Department bring up the marriage contract."

Richard was so surprised that he almost dropped his glasses.

I was finally relieved. A cold sweat had formed on my tense back.

I knew it. The gamble paid off.

I had started with the first step correctly.

Fifteen minutes later, a marriage agreement, practically an indentured servitude contract, was placed before me.

I didn't get any assets or rights, but only obligations.

I couldn't interfere with any of his private matters.

I picked up the pen without even reading the contract and signed my name at the end.

Brenna Oliver.

I wrote my name more forcefully than ever before in my previous life.

After signing it, I pushed the contract toward him. "Mr. Harrison, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you."

Jacob stared at my signature on the contract. His gaze was deep and unreadable. "From now on, you'll move into my villa."

"Okay."

"Without my permission, you are not allowed to step out of the door."

"Fine."

"Stop being so clever. Stay in your place and be a good Mrs. Harrison."

I looked up and met his scrutinizing gaze. I smiled brightly. "Of course, my... husband."

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan
4.9

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.
