THREE-YEARS CONTRACT MARRIAGE WITH THE HOT BILLIONAIRE
"Sign the contract, or lose everything." I stared at the papers that would seal my fate-a three-year marriage to Julian Blackwood, the ruthless billionaire they call the Ice King. My family didn't ask. They demanded. My father's company was drowning, my stepsister's engagement had exploded, and I was the replacement bride they could sacrifice. Just another transaction. Julian made it clear on our wedding day: "Don't expect affection. Don't expect companionship. Certainly don't expect love." He refused to kiss me at the altar. He gave me a bedroom down the hall and told me to stay out of his way. I was Mrs. Blackwood in name only-a contract, a convenience, a means to an end. I accepted it. I had survived twelve years of abuse in my own home. I could survive three years of indifference in his. But then Nate, Julian's best friend, showed me kindness, and suddenly my cold husband became possessive. When my sister attacked me, he became protective. Now the man who promised me nothing is fighting his own father to keep me. The marriage that was supposed to be fake is becoming terrifyingly real and the secrets about my mother's death are threatening to destroy everything. They said Julian Blackwood destroys everything he touches. What they didn't tell me... is that sometimes destruction is exactly what you need to be reborn. With a pregnancy involved, how was I going to end this three-year marriage peacefully?"Cassandra, I've never had any feelings for you. We should break up."
"We're meant to be together, Cassandra. I'll have as you as my wife for the rest of my life."
"Cassandra! She's your sister! How dare you hurt her like this? Get out of my sight! You are no longer my daughter!"
"She was worthless. Her death means nothing to me."
Cassandra Yan was having a headache.
Recalling all those times from her past tore her up into a million pieces. She groaned as she curled up into a ball.
There was no one inside the room except for her. She gazed at the handcuff around her wrist that was attached to the bedpost. She roughly wiggled her hand, but it only left an angry red mark around her wrist. The skin on her wrist began to bleed.
A cold sweat began to form on her forehead, and the air in the room felt freezing cold.
She didn't know how long it was until she opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was a bedroom decorated with red ornaments.
Her eyes widened and her body felt stiff. The familiar scene overwhelmed her.
How could this be? Wasn't it the night before her wedding? What was going on?
She didn't want to be a substitute and marry that vile man. The only thing she wanted was to be with the man she loved. Her parents locked her up inside the bedroom because of it.
'I thought I was dead. What's going on?'
She tried every means to run away from the vile man. She thought she was going to meet her beloved, but she was wrong.
Her sister, whom she trusted the most, was standing by the vile man's side. And the man she loved most planned everything.
In her parents' eyes, she was just a pawn.
Realizing that, she had no will to live. When that vile man brought her home, she knew she would have to live the rest of her life as a prisoner, with no hope of escape.
The last thing she could remember was falling into the sea and struggling to stay afloat for a while. When she opened her eyes again, she was back in the night from five years ago. Tomorrow, she was going to replace her sister, Susan Yan, and marry Martin Lu, the vile man.
Everything in front of her looked so real, and she was sure she wasn't in a dream.
'What happened? Am I reborn?
But why? Why am I back in the time where my nightmares would begin?'
Her parents abandoned her, the love of her life was taken away by her sister, and the man she loved betrayed her. They all forced her to marry Martin Lu.
'Do I have to go through all of that again?
