Bound By Contract To The Billionaire
“To save her family from a crushing financial crisis, Alaina Carney signed a one-year contract marriage with the cold, untouchable billionaire, Alaric Wynn. But her toxic ex-boyfriend, Damian Horton-the very man who engineered her family's ruin-refused to let her move on. When Damian discovered Alaina was opening her own architecture gallery, he launched a vicious corporate attack. He ruthlessly short-sold her suppliers' stocks and forced her entire construction team to walk out. He cornered her in her empty office, throwing a humiliating contract onto her desk. He demanded she sign her gallery over to him and crawl back as his hidden mistress. If she refused, he promised to destroy anyone who dared to work with her, arrogantly threatening to even target the Wynn Group. Alaina was suffocating under his obsessive blackmail. She had already sold her freedom to escape his grip, yet he still treated her like a helpless toy he could break at will. She absolutely refused to surrender, but how could she possibly fight a massive corporation all by herself? Just as Damian smugly gave her one hour to submit, the office door swung open. Alaric Wynn strode in, picked up Damian's contract, and tore it to shreds. "My wife doesn't sign trash." He turned to a live video feed of Damian's board of directors and coldly delivered the final blow. "While you were busy bullying her, my team just bought a controlling stake in your entire company."”
