I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

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.

Late autumn.

Dry leaves of gold fell on a broad shoulder.

Richard Nicholas stood under the tree, facing the Faculty Office, learning Dream technology.

"Brother, they tried to harm me. I didn't live. I'm getting older."

Two months First, the capital of Dream Science and Technology met. In the unresolvable incident, President Andrew Nicholas carries a massive debt of US$1.2 billion on his back, forced to mortgage the company for Sky Peak to Brian Arthur.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I have to go first..."

Twelve states at night, Andrew Nicholas jumped off the roof and died. On the spot.

He is a handsome, talented man famous in business circles, yet he says goodbye to the world like that.

Which one? Is it to have one's head in one's pocket? There's a problem with this. It's like a battlefield. Andrew Nicholas is the object of a pitiful sacrifice.

In the middle of a gIt's cold, Richard Nicholas takes a deep breath, heads up. Look up at the starry sky.

"Andrew, I'm sorry, I'm late. Don't worry, of course. Who harms you, I'll make them pay, bury them with you."

For the past five years, Richard Nicholas went to the Rocky Mountains to join the army.

Output Point emanating from a small soldier he bravely killed, God Victory Harvey, the fisherman, has won many battles with admiration and respect.

Now, he's back.

On the curtain night, the shadow comes from the dark man. He gave Richard Nicholas a little light blue notebook.

That person, Vincent Scott, the brother who was with Richard Nich. Oras are fighting on the battlefield.

"Mr. Richard, it's Edward Family. You don't have to do it yourself. If Mr. Richard gives the order, I assure you, Sky Peak Company and... Brian Arthur people will all disappear from this world within three days."

Richard Nicholas gently shook his head: "Some things must be done by himself. I'll handle it."

" I understand. Yes." Vincent Scott bowed his head quietly, then left quickly. Like the wind, he was leaving no trace.

Richard Nicholas mends one's clothes and heads to the Faculty Office Learn Dream Technology not far away.

When he was about to enter the door, a thin older man, with his arms a bag of cloth, with his back bent slowly, came slowly, not noticing the way, so he ran into Richard Nicholas.

"Excuse me."

In the old days, raise his head and recognized Richard Nicholas two-by-one. His eyes were immediately red and wet: "Master, have you returned?"

"That's right, Dennis, I'm back."

It's Brian Dennis, a veteran technology officer of Science and Technology. Dream, watching the Nicholas Family grow up as a child. For Richard Nicholas, he is not only a member of the company, but he is also like a person of his kinship.

It's Brian Dennis. It looked at Richard Nicholas for a while, then turned his head. Eyes toward the company headquarters, a look of disappointment: "Sorry, you're late. Yes."

Right now, a young man with red hair in his mouth went on with a cigarette.

"Old man. Hey, what are you standing there for? Don't you hear me? You don't even have to leave. Call someone to hit you?"
