LOGINShe watched her boyfriend drop to one knee, not for her, but for another woman. Humiliated. Betrayed. Disowned by her own mother. Krystalina is left with nothing, no dignity, no home, not even a single penny to her name. Just when she thinks life cannot be cruel, London’s richest and most ruthless lawyer offers her a lifeline. A marriage contract. A surrogacy agreement. Strict rules : No emotions. No sexual intimacy. No attachment with the baby. But rules are meant to be broken.The moment passion blurs the lines, secrets begin to unravel and the truth behind his cold proposal threatens to destroy them both. Can a relationship born out of betrayal survive their love? * “You’ve been a very bad girl, Mrs Ashton. Always disobeying me.” His thumb brushed over my lower lip, possessive, stealing my breath. “I don’t want my baby to be ill-mannered, like you” he said calmly. Tears welled in my eyes at his audacity. “Then you should terminate the contract.”

No matter how much I try to conceal it, it just won’t hide. And he had the audacity to demand that I show his proof of stupid possessiveness to the whole world.He has to understand that I don’t belong to him. How can I, when we are going to get divorced the day the baby comes into this world?And I am my own woman. No one owns me.I sighed and put the concealer down, then stood up to get dressed. I wonder what Ethan must be doing? When I told him that I would be going with him, that bastard smiled and asked to hug me. But of course I said no. We have to maintain distance, until his feelings for me die down.I wore the dress, new unreleased couture by Dior, a beautiful blush pink gown with intricate floral embellishment in ombre color. It was strapless and had a big bow sewn at t
Krystalina ~“With the amount of food you intake every day… you will be a balloon in no time… not that you are any fit now. I would give you my fitness trainer’s contact, you need to work out...”I bit my inner cheek, tears stinging my eyes. But I dared myself not to let them out, my throat tightened and I swallowed, once, twice, trying to push down the burn.I pushed the pasta bowl away, suddenly it felt like shameful proof about me. I decided to stick with the vegetable soup only.She is right. I can’t eat much, or I will become fat, and that means not looking pretty enough up to the standards of the Ashton family.The soup tasted like nothing. Bland. I took small bites of vegetables while slurping the liquid, my throat aching with humiliation. My appetite lost.I saw a familiar hand serving pasta on my plate and pushing it towards me. I glared at him. What is he trying to do? Didn’t he listen to his mother? I can’t get fat.“Body shaming isn’t allowed in my home. Please, everyone,
Krystalina ~He is silent.Not the cold silent but the 'silent'... silent. The kind of silent that makes me want to ask him if I did something wrong.Does he not believe me? Does he think that I also kissed Ethan? I don't know what has happened to him that he is so distant. I want my cold, grumpy husband back.Or maybe he regrets kissing and touching me. The thought made my heart clench with pain that I have never felt before.I don't know what is happening to me either. I have never felt this for anyone before. Not even Morgan. Morgan, he was just there, but Mr Ashton, he is consuming me.I get jealous when I see him with other women even though he does not even spare them a second glance. When he touches me, or even breathes in my direction, every pore of my body becomes alive.I never felt this way for anyone. I and Morgan barely had sex in those two years of relationship. He was always tired and, to be honest, I was glad that he used to be tired or whatever, because I never felt t
Ethan ~I watched as the soft tendrils fell in front of her eyes, and how swiftly she brushed them back. She looked so tender and delicate. The color of her skin matched with the baby pink top she was wearing. I don't know how my brother got this perfect woman. But I guess that fucker is lucky he always gets what he wants. But not this time. This time I will turn the table. Yes, the main reason behind being friendly with Krystalina was to hurt my brother through her. But with each passing day, the line for revenge blurred and something more fierce grew inside my chest. I have to have her. She has to be mine, my feelings for her are growing like fire in the wilderness. She should belong to me but that bastard of my brother got her first. But I know the truth of their marriage. It was not hard to find their so-called "contract marriage and surrogacy."Their marriage is fake. There is no love in between them, the one they pretend to have in front of our stupid family. She is here f
Krystalina ~Sixteen hours have passed.Sixteen hours since I have been locked in this room by my tyrant husband. Half of the new day has gone by, and I am still in captivity.Last night he handcuffed me to the bed, and then when I woke up in the morning, I couldn't get out of this room. My breakfa
Krystalina~A white polka-dot blazer, a plain white corset underneath, and white flared trousers paired with bright red stilettos, with M·A·C ruby-red lipstick coating my lips.I smacked my lips together and put the lipstick into my red YSL bag for touch-ups, just in case. I grabbed my Hooker Rose
Krystalina ~“I asked… where were you, wife?” I clutched the hem of my coat, keeping my mouth shut. What has gotten into him?“I am not obliged to answer you. It’s none of your damn business.” I stepped back from him. He can tend his bleeding hand by himself for all I care.I spun on my heels and m
Krystalina~My eyes welled with tears, and my knees felt weak. I gripped his arm, blinking back the tears from falling. The wounds that I thought I had stitched well were now cracked open.Bleeding.I was bleeding from inside, my heart aching, and the embarrassment that his betrayal caused me lit i
