LOGINJust imagine… You’re a doctor trained to heal broken minds — and now, your newest patient is the man everyone fears. A billionaire with a temper no one can control. A man betrayed by the woman he loved, now drowning in rage, guilt, and pain. Now imagine being offered a million dollars to marry him. Not for love. Not for romance. But as his “treatment.”
View MoreChapter Two Hundred and Sixty OneAria didn’t think anything of it at first.The day had been long, the kind that left her shoulders slightly tense even after she clocked out. One of the nurses had walked up to her just as she was about to leave, mentioning that there was a small gathering for one of the senior doctors in a private garden space not too far from the hospital. It wasn’t unusual. People celebrated things all the time, and she didn’t have a reason to question it.“Just come for a few minutes,” the nurse had insisted with a smile. “They asked for you.”Aria hesitated at first, glancing at her phone out of habit, half expecting a message from Damien. There wasn’t one yet. She thought about calling him, but then decided against it.It would only take a few minutes.“Fine,” she agreed, adjusting her bag on her shoulder. “I won’t stay long.”The nurse nodded quickly, almost too quickly, before leading the way.The walk there was quiet, the evening settling into that calm hour
Chapter Two Hundred and SixtyDays in Minnesota stopped feeling like separate days.They started blending into something softer, something that carried the same feeling no matter what hour it was.It could be a random evening where Damien pulled up in front of her house without telling her where they were going, just a small smile on his face as he stepped out to open the door for her. Or a quiet morning text from him before she even got out of bed, something simple like “Don’t skip breakfast today.” And somehow, she never did when he said it.They didn’t need plans anymore.Sometimes he picked her up just to drive around with no destination in mind, one of his hands resting loosely on the steering wheel while the other found its way to hers like it belonged there. She would sit beside him, talking about anything that came to her mind, and he would listen like nothing else mattered at that moment.Other days, they stayed out longer.Dinner would turn into a walk, and the walk would tu
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty NineDamien didn’t just pull up and wait.He stepped out of the car and walked straight to her door like he had been thinking about this moment all day.Aria opened before he knocked.For a second, neither of them spoke.His eyes moved over her slowly, taking her in without hiding it. The dress, the way her hair fell, the effort she didn’t even try to pretend she didn’t make.“You kept me waiting,” she said, folding her arms lightly, but there was no real complaint in it.He stepped closer instead of answering, his hand lifting to her face as if it had already learned the place. His thumb brushed softly against her cheek, slow, familiar.“I needed a second,” he said quietly. “You look too good.”That caught her off guard, just enough for her eyes to soften.“Is that your excuse?”“It’s the truth.”She didn’t step back.Didn’t move away.Her hand came up to his wrist, holding it there where his touch rested on her skin.“You’re starting early today,” she m
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty EightDays passed, but nothing between them faded.If anything, it became clearer.More present.More real in a way Aria hadn’t expected.It started quietly.The first evening after everything changed, she had stepped out of work expecting the usual—finding a cab, heading home, letting the day settle on its own.But he was there.Leaning against his car like it was the most normal thing in the world.Like he had always been part of her routine.She paused when she saw him, her steps slowing slightly as a small smile found its way to her face before she could stop it.“You’re here again?” she asked as she walked toward him, her bag still hanging loosely over her shoulder.Damien straightened, his eyes moving over her briefly before settling back on her face.“Of course,” he replied simply, like there was no other option.She shook her head a little, but she didn’t argue.That was the thing.She had stopped pushing him away.And he had stopped trying too ha
