The Wretched Half-Sister: The Billionaire's Obsession

"You failed woefully, Nina Whyte, Why??? Nina????? The head of department said.

Nina's eyes suddenly opened with fear glowing in them as she jumped from her sleep with sweat dripping down her skin.

Still feeling traumatized by her dream, she got out of bed, freshened up, got dressed and went straight to the college immediately.

In a serene environment with a sunny climate in Zuchin Top City at Winter Park College.

Nina Whyte was already in cloud 9, sitting in the guests hall waiting for her turn so she could collect her college certificate.

"How dare you fail your final exam? Do you know the cost incurred, the huge loan you took just so you could graduate with your mate? You'll have to come back to South City so we could work together in my business firm, with two brains we can grow the business together. Aria Whyte said with rage written all over his face and snorted.

"Did you hear me, Nina!" Aria said

Immediately, Nina Whyte woke up from cloud 9.

"Ooo......hhhhhh! Another day-dreaming? what a dream," She said while rubbing her hair as a sign of relief. She checked the clock it was already 1 o'clock and still hasn't gotten to her turn yet

Nina, had to think out loud what Aria, her uncle said while on cloud 9. She made up her mind of not going back to her uncle, rather, she wants to work, cater for the uncle and his family and then settle the huge student loan she took.

"Who's Ms. Nina Whyte? Please come in to collect your certificate," The student officer said.

Nina jumped up with so much energy, "Yes i am." She said as she walked into the office.

Procedures were followed, she filled a form ensuring she's the right owner of the certificate, submitted receipt of payment, did lots of verification before she finally collected her certificate.

"Congratulations Ms. Wishing you a splendid future ahead." The student officer said with his chin and gave Nina a warm handshake.

"Thank you so much sir, and thanks for everything you did, your good deeds won't be easily forgotten."She smirked.

He, Enzo Moretti wanted a wife immediately, because the rule in the elite world says "You must be married to be able to attain the position of the CEO of Knight holdings" The policy states that once you're married; it proves you can handle lots of responsibilities.

Enzo Moretti wanted the position so badly, because to him, he's the first son and child and doesn't want anyone to interfere in his father's wealth not even the elite group.......His search for a bride began.

Enzo told his PA, Kelly Kon, to pay lots of TV presenters, Newspaper's agency to advertise on all social media platforms of his need of a bride. And she must meet up to his criteria. The criteria states: She must not be more than 28 of age, she must be a resident of Legion city, from a wealthy background, must be beautiful, intelligent, well articulated, not too chubby and should be done with college, already working.

The search went on and on, days turns into weeks, weeks into months, months into a year.

There was a deadline for him to marry or else another shareholder of the company will be handed the CEO's position. Enzo Moretti became so frustrated.

Other ladies saw the advert, but they were just too curious and scared to go for it; scared of unforeseen circumstances.

His PA, Kelly Kon, later got an email from a woman, named Jante.

Jante was a single mother who was struggling to make ends meet. She recently lost her job and was facing eviction from her apartment. She was desperate for money and was willing to consider the contract marriage proposal.

"I'm strongly interested in the contract of being the billionaire's wife," She said.

"Okay! Noted Ms, can we meet? Here's the address of the venue," Kelly sent it to her while his face was as bright as the morning sun.

"What a relieved! Finally!" He said.

Eventually, an interviewed was held with the lady, Enzo's lawyer was around. She agreed to the huge sum of amount from Enzo, Enzo was offering her a huge sum of money, a luxurious apartment in the city and even a brand new car. she signed the document and moved to his house.

Nina Moretti works in the other city, Zuchin Top City, some kilometers away from Legion City. After she collected her certificate from College, she made up her mind to stay back to work.She began applying for jobs.

The first job she got, the restaurant job wasn't favourable, the policy did more harm to her mental health. She continued searching and applying.

"Oh! Please just do this for me, just this last click" She didn't know who she was praying to but she said it anyways with her eyes closed with running nose.

After rigorous search, on her way home from her restaurant duties, she got a email.

"Big congratulations Ms. Nina, you're required to confirm and report first thing tomorrow morning."

She moved her body, left, right, danced and sang with her chin up. This time around her nose was dried up.

She got her dream job, even though the pay is still not enough for her to clear her school debt. Nonetheless, her face doesn't look dull at all. You see her face, you see light.

She read on the news headline "A contract bride needed to marry a billionaire CEO" she later saw "His selected contract wife left him"

The Lady chosen to be his contract wife, Jante, left him when she discovered that she was only a tool in the hands of Enzo, to him, she was a wife in name. A shared home. A shared bed. A public image to maintain. Nothing more. He doesn't feel anything for her. She saw she doesn't have a future with him, so she left. Enzo ensured she was settled.

Nina was in her office, reading the news headlines to herself. Not knowing her friend and colleague, Efany Coker just walked in.

"I'm considering this offer, Efany." Nina said while gazing directly at Efany, her heart pounded a bit.

"You better not consider it," Efany barked back instantly without looking at her.

"I'd. I've made up my mind on this before telling you, Efany, it's only a contract for few months not a lifetime deal. Atleast I'd be able to pay up my school debt and still have a huge sum of funds with me, because the offer is juicy." She said while licking her lips with her tongue.

Nina's uncle, Aria Whyte, had been pressurizing her to get married, that's she's not getting any younger. But Nina on the other part, wants to fulfill her dream of independency, to have more wealth, to settle her school debts. To break the gap between the poor and the rich.

Eventually Nina got Enzo's PA, Kelly number and called, to show how serious she was, she sent an email. She was called upon. Kelly fixed a date for Nina to meet with Enzo Moretti.

Immediately, Enzo saw her, he didn't ask for other information further, forsake his criteria, and accepted her immediately.

"Sign this contract, Ms Nina," He said with pang voice.

He stretched and gave Nina the contract marriage document to sign.He was already devastated, his strength almost gone due to a search for a bride. Nina immediately signed the contract after reading the conditions with his lawyers consent.

They chatted for a while, discussing the details of the contract and what was expected of both of them.

"You seem like a smart woman, Nina, Enzo said.

"I'm sure we'll be able to make this work."

Nina nodded, still a little nervous. She couldn't believe she was actually doing this, but it was too late to back out now.

Over the next few weeks, Enzo and Nina spent a lot of time together, getting to know each other and preparing for new life together.
