Temptation Of The Contract Bride Novels & Stories

It wasn't hidden, Ferdinand noticed it himself. He picked up the pen and bent low while staring at the paper. This is so ridiculous to him. " It's a contract. You will be my groom, just for sixty days… ", her loud but annoying voice echoed in his ear. She sat at the edge of the table, " I will hire you to be my groom, and I'll pay you immediately after the contract is over. Don't ever refer to me as your wife, because nothing is binding the both of us together."

"She was groomed for high society from birth. She knows how to host board members. This slum rat will only humiliate you." The three women waited for Victor to cast Rosaline out. Victor stared at the three socialites. His expression was devoid of any warmth or amusement. He felt no manipulation. He felt only profound disgust for the stupidity standing in front of him. The temperature in the room seemed to plummet. "Pedigree," Victor repeated. The word sounded like poison in his mouth. He set his glass down next to Rosaline's. He turned his full attention to Caroline Mercer. "Your father runs Blackridge Capital," Victor said.

he said, as if it were simple. “And if I miscarry again?” He didn’t answer. Silence. The only honest kind there was. When I finally turned back, his eyes were still on me. There was no seduction. Just a deal. “I’ll think about it,” I said. “You have twenty-four hours,” he replied. “Ivory will show you to your room.” I stared at the crisp contract in my hands, my fingers brushing over the thick, expensive paper. It didn’t feel like a proposal. It felt like a transaction.

He took a step closer, and I hated how my heart reacted, how it thudded traitorously in my chest. “What I want is actually quite simple,” he said. “Marry me Liora. A contract marriage. That’s all I ask.” He paused, letting the silence tighten between us. “In return, I’ll make sure not only Caleb lives, but also revives your family name.” I stared at him, stunned. And then I laughed. “A contract marriage? With you? You’re even more insane than I thought." What makes him even think I’d ever agree to this?”

My mind was telling me to escape but my body kept doing the exact opposite by remaining stiff. Dominic's gaze left me stuck on the spot. His eyes were burning with fierce possessiveness. "You broke the contract deal..." He trailed off, slowly taking a few steps closer to me. Dominic paused run a hand through his hair in frustration before continuing to speak, his voice was laced with malice. "You were supposed to be a surrogate and not a lover. Now, somehow you carry my real child."

Vincent put his hands in his pockets and looked into Bryan’s eyes, “But have you thought about it? One of the key qualities I was looking for is innocence. Now this girl, she is fresh out of college…oh in fact she probably hasn’t graduated yet. Even if she is smart and money driven, she wouldn’t expect herself to have such a high commitment and pay such a high price at the end.” “She will also get a huge return.” “Can we design something easier to get her buy in? Our original contract almost sounds like a scam - you don’t know when the contract will end, but when it ends you must leave Singapore forever. Well, that sounds like a real marriage - no one knows when it will end but when it ends

Adam lifts her up in his arms ready to walk away but Grandma’s voice stopped him. Both had to pray in the temple of the royal palace before both start their marital life. “But Grandma, New queen and Prince Adam cannot stay with each other for the next 5 days. Priest had told so...” Stacey informed, inwardly smirking evilly... in those five days, I would send this girl back to her home. Adam stopped and looked at his bride in his arms, I care a damn whether it is five days or five births. He thought ruefully before putting her down to her feet.

I listened as she raised each question. I was not in the mood to argue with her, am a busy man and she should know that. "I have a proposition for you" I gently tell her, her brows raised in question "What proposition?" "A contract marriage, between you and I" she coughed, trying to get herself as I watched her. "Are you done??" anger filled my face. "You kidding right, this must be a prank, alright you all can come out now, what TV show is this, fool the naive girl" she teased

“That’s when I heard your mother’s manager praising her. He wanted to promote her, but he was reluctant because she was a single mother. When I had her background checked, she was perfect. So when I approached her, it wasn’t a coincidence.” He continued, his voice steady but heavy: “Our contract was for one year. I would get a pretend wife, and she would get an easy promotion after years of hard work. No falling in love and no physical contact. Either of us could get a lover. And if one left, we wouldn’t destroy the other’s reputation.” Soraya turned to me. “Mom… is this true?” I forced myself to stand. Cassian spoke again before I could. “I kept to the contract. I never led you on, Evelyn.
