HIRED AS A BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE

(Anastasia's POV)I wake up swamped in my light blue covers, and I rub my eyes as the bright sunlight hits them. I look over at my clock which is marked 8:00 am. Oh shit, I am going to be late for my work! I stand up from the bed and walk toward the bathroom. I adjust the water to my liking before I strip out of my pajamas and enter the bathtub. The warm water cascades over my body and brown hair. I hastily wash my hair and scrub my body before I rinse out one last time. I wrap a towel around my body as well as my hair. As I exit the bathroom steam flows out. I walk to my drawers and take out my white plain T-shirt partnered it down with denim blue pants and black converse. I apply a powder and lilting to my bare face before I brush my hair and tie it into a neat bun that rested on top of my head. I grab my bag and exited my apartment while my sister and mother were still asleep. I hailed a cab and head straight to the Latte Cafe where I am working as a cashier.Once I arrived, I

(Anastasia's POV)I followed Mr. Carter. to a private parking lot where all the VIP vehicles are. He unlocked the trunk of his car and took out a brown leather duffle bag, opened it, and pulled out a white cotton towel."Dry yourself first. I don't want you to catch a cold." he handed me the towel before putting the bag back in the trunk. He then unlocked the driver's seat and motioned his hand at me to get on the other side."I'll dry myself first. I don't want to ruin the seats. They look expensive."He rolled the sleeves of his dress shirt to his elbows, "It doesn't matter, you can do it here. Now, get in before someone sees you."Reminding her of how scary reporters can be, I hurriedly got inside the passenger seat of his car. He started the car and moved out of the parking lot with ease. "So, what's this important thing you were going to tell me?"I looked outside the windows as they go past building by building. "W-where are we going?" I also noticed how the rain seemed to have

Anastasia's POVI stare up at the ceiling in deep thought. What the hell did I get myself into? My life is going to take a drastic turn from this point. Did I make the right choice by accepting this deal? I just signed my life to a stranger himself. I let out a long sigh before standing up from my bed. Enough thinking, I don't want to think anymore. I grab my grey sleeping robe and put it on without tying it. While walking to the kitchen, I tie my hair into a messy bun and start making breakfast for my mom and sister. I crack some eggs and pour them into the pan. I grab the spatula and move it around. Once the scrambled eggs are ready I place them on a plate and grab the hotdog from the fridge. I clean the pan before frying the hotdogs. Once it's ready and at my liking, I place the hotdogs next to scrambled eggs and turn off the stove before placing the pan in the sink. I am about to walk towards the room of my mother and sister when the doorbell rings. I stand up and open the door

(Anastasia's POV)Today was the day, the day that I have been wishing throughout the week not to come, the day I would be joined in a marriage I never asked for, a marriage that came without a choice.The wedding day.I was already in my wedding gown which mom and aunt Susan helped me into and was currently retouching my make up which I didn't find necessary but Angelica insisted.After the family dinner at his ancestral mansion, everything went very fast, since Caleb had decided to push the wedding to this Saturday, for reasons best known to him. "Okay, pretty bride it's time to go," Olivia said when she walked in with Trina. She is the organizer of the wedding, as she is very close to Caleb's family. I wonder why they didn't date."You look beautiful." mom said with a loving smile. One thing that gave me joy, was seeing my mom and sister smiling and not having worries in life, they look so happy. Tears formed at the banks of my eyes.We exit Olivia's building and drove to the church

(Caleb's POV)After our wedding, we were the talk of the country. Our photos were printed in every magazine and newspaper, and the paparazzi followed everyone and everything related to us. It was getting on my nerves, but thankfully the spotlight would go away in a few weeks.I would be meeting some of my investors at the event, so I worked the entire afternoon in my office.After hours of working, I stretched my arms and opened a drawer to take some painkillers. But as I was about to get it, the phone suddenly ring. "Yes?" "Mr. Carter, the charity event will move by two hours earlier, as requested by the investors." it was Kent, my secretary on the other line."Okay, ready the private chopper." I ended the call as my attention is still outside my office. I don't remember that someone was waiting for me outside.My door was slightly open, that's why I heard a soft voice as if he or she was startled.I slowly take a few steps to the living room and there, I saw Anastasia sitting on a
