What would you do if marrying a stranger was the only way to save your family? At twenty-six, Amara Villanueva is desperate to save her family from overwhelming debt and her father's mounting medical expenses. Just when she thinks everything is falling apart, Adrian Monteverde, a cold and incredibly wealthy CEO, offers her an unusual solution: marry him for twelve months in exchange for financial security. For Adrian, marriage is nothing more than a business arrangement designed to protect his position within his family's powerful empire. For Amara, it's a sacrifice she's willing to make for the people she loves. Their rules are simple: no expectations, no unnecessary affection, and absolutely no falling in love. But living under the same roof changes everything. Behind Adrian's intimidating personality is a man haunted by family secrets and afraid of losing the people he loves. And behind Amara's stubborn independence is a woman who slowly becomes the one person capable of breaking through his walls. Unfortunately, the Monteverde family's wealth hides dangerous betrayals, and Amara's own family may be connected to a secret that could destroy their marriage. When lies threaten to separate them, will Adrian choose his empire or the woman he never intended to love? Sometimes, the greatest wealth isn't money—it's a love worth fighting for.

The Wife Behind the Wealth chapter 10: The Real Reason He Married Her
I stared at Adrian as if I had never seen him before. “Say that again,” I whispered. We stood inside his private study, surrounded by towering shelves and glass windows overlooking the city. On his desk lay copies of the old construction documents, including the records that connected my father to the Monteverde scandal. Adrian looked exhausted. His tie was loosened, and dark circles shadowed his eyes. “Your father wasn't the only reason I approached you,” he admitted. “But he was part of the reason I chose you.”My chest tightened. “So it was never a coincidence.” “No.”

Before you marry Adrian, you need to know that his family wasn't the only one responsible for what happened.” Napahigpit ang hawak ko sa cellphone. “Pa, anong ibig mong sabihin?” Sa kabilang linya, narinig ko ang mahinang pag-ubo niya bago siya sumagot. “Years ago, may pinirmahan akong supplier agreement para sa isang Monteverde construction project. Akala ko ordinaryong kontrata lang. Pero nang mawala ang pera, ako ang sinisi.” “May kinalaman ka ba sa nawawalang pera?” “Wala akong ninakaw, Amara. Pero may mga dokumentong ginamit laban sa akin.” “Sino ang gumawa noon?” Sandaling natahimik si Papa. “Sebastian Monteverde.” Nanlamig ang mga kamay ko. Ang lalaking ngumiti sa akin sa hapag-kainan, ang lalaking tila minamaliit ako sa bawat pagkakataon, ay maaaring may kinalaman sa pagbagsak ng negosyo ng pamilya namin. “Bakit ngayon mo lang sinabi sa akin?” “Dahil may mga taong nagbanta sa akin. Ayokong madamay kayo.” Napapikit ako. “Pa, ikakasal na ako sa pinsan

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang mas nakakakaba—ang malaman kung ano ang nangyari sa lumang Monteverde construction project o ang umamin sa sarili kong nagsisimula na akong magduda sa lalaking pakakasalan ko. Habang nakaupo ako sa passenger seat ng kotse ni Adrian, paulit-ulit kong binabasa ang anonymous message sa cellphone ko. You should ask your father what really happened on the old Monteverde construction project. Before your marriage becomes a mistake you can't undo. Hindi ko alam kung sino ang nagpadala nito. Pero isang bagay ang malinaw: may taong ayaw na matuloy ang kasal namin. “Something wrong?” tanong ni Adrian habang nagmamaneho.

The Monteverde mansion was quiet when Adrian drove me home after dinner, but my mind was anything but peaceful. I kept replaying every conversation at that table. Every suspicious glance. Every carefully disguised insult. And most of all, the way Sebastian Monteverde had looked at me, as if I were a stain on an expensive white carpet. “Are you always this quiet after meeting my family?” Adrian asked from the driver's seat. I glanced at him. “Are you always this insensitive after introducing someone to a room full of people who clearly think she doesn't belong?” His fingers tightened around the steering wheel. “I warned you they wouldn't be welcoming.”You warned me they might ask questions. You forgot to mention they would examine me like I was applying for a job I wasn't qualified for.” “Would you have accepted the invitation if I'd told you?” “Of course not.” “Then perhaps I made the correct decision.” I stared at him in disbelief. “Wow. Your ability to be annoying
