Kaagad ko iyong inagaw sa kamay ng aking ina at muling sinuri kung totoo ba ang nakikita ko. — "The Two Heirs of Prominent Billionaire Families in Asia Are Finally Married!

The unexpected union of the two high-profile figures who have not been seen together for five years has sent shockwaves through the public, leaving everyone questioning the sudden marriage. What led to this secret wedding? And why n

True to Zachary’s orders, the maids had left her alone, leaving her to drown in the suffocating luxury of the Villareal mansion. Exactly at twelve o'clock, the regular programming on the screen cut abruptly to a breaking news banner. Ang pangalan ni Zachary ay agad na bumalandra sa screen sa pinakamalaking font possible. The anchor's voice filled the room, bursting with dramatic excitement as she announced the sudden, secret marriage of the country’s most elusive billionaire bachelor.

Nagising ako bago pa man tumunog ang alarm ko. Ilang segundo akong nakatitig sa kisame ng maliit na kwarto habang pilit na iniisip kung nasaan na ako. Wala na ako apartment na inuupahan namin o sa plastik na upuan sa tabi ng kama ng papa ko sa ospital kung saan halos isang linggo na akong pabalik-balik. Nasa Montecarlos Mansion ako ngayon, at kahit gaano ko pa gustuhing isipin na masamang panaginip lang ang lahat, hindi mababago noon ang katotohanan.

Nagpakawala ng isang malamig na tawa ang ina ni River, ang mga labi ay puno ng matinding pang-uuyam. Sa estado ni Nixie na isang ampon at ngayon ay may background pa ng second marriage, walang may gustong lalaki sa kaniya. Kung mag-asawa man siyang muli, paniguradong mapupunta lang siya bilang pangalawang asawa ng isang matandang lalaki o kaya naman ay magiging madrasta. Tila nakikita na ng ginang ang kalunos-lunos na kinabukasan ni Nixie, kaya naman hindi na nito naitago ang tuwa sa kaniyang mga mata.

Hindi ko pagsisisihan kung siya! Habang nakikinig ako sa mahinang paghinga niya, hindi ko mapigilang maglakbay ang isip ko pabalik sa nakaraan. If you had told me a year ago that Ark, the infamous cold-blooded billionaire, the man who cared about nothing except expanding his family’s empire and playing chess with his business rivals, would willingly lie down inside a dark, cramped maid’s quarters just to sleep beside a maid, I probably would’ve punched you.

“You’re agreeing that easily?” “Yes,” sagot ko. “But I have one condition.” “Speak.” “You don’t control me,” sabi ko. “I stay… but I still decide for myself.” Tinitigan niya ako. “Let’s see about that,” malamig niyang sagot. Huminga ako nang malalim. Hindi ko alam kung tama ang desisyon ko. Pero wala na akong balak bumalik sa dati. I am now the wife of Sebastian Montefalco. The country’s most dangerous and richest billionaire.

“What you signed is real. The papers were filed. We’re legally married, Mrs. Savage.” Parang binuhusan ng nagyeyelong tubig si Celestine. “Savage?” Dahan-dahang ngumiti ang lalaki. “Conrad Savage. Congratulations to us, wife.” Nabulunan si Celestine. “Anak ka ng—” Pinutol siya ng lalaki sa isang mahinang tawa. “You’ll thank me later. After breakfast.” “Hinding-hindi mangyayari ’yan.”

Akala ko, sa libro at palabas lang nangyayari ang ganitong bagay. Maging sa tunay na buhay ay nangyayari din pala. My name is Hyacinth Liana Monteverde. I grew up with a silver spoon. A life wrapped in comfort, privilege, and everything I thought would last forever. But fate has a cruel way of teaching lessons no luxury could prepare me for. And now, to save everything my family once owned, I have to marry the country’s most ruthless young billionaire. Five years. No love. No strings attached.

Wala na naman akong masabi. “Sisimulan mo ang papel mo bilang asawa mamayang gabi,” dagdag niya. “P-po?” napatingala ako sa kanya. “Isasama kita sa isang charity gala sa Batangas City. Gusto kong makita ng lahat kung sino ang babaeng nasa tabi ko.” Babae sa tabi niya. Hindi asawa. Hindi mahal. Display lang.

And whether fate or my choices brought me to this point, I have no idea what the future holds. But for now, I'm just going to breathe. Because I am his wife. I am officially married to a billionaire, Riel Valderama. Even if it is a marriage of convenience.
