Arrogant billionaire's enigmatic wife

I am not the man of her dreams yet she keeps falling for me slowly every day! ************* With a sweet, normal life and a bright career, I couldn't ask for anything else than crossing paths with a stranger from the past. Little did I know that when he would arrive, he wouldn't come alone but with his dark secrets that would tear through my soul and a life of whirlwind that would turn my world upside down. And with the serial killer on the loose, I would need to protect not only him, but also my biggest enemy- his father! I am Elena Bell, and this is my story of friendship, betrayals, revenge and LOVE! ************* EXCERPT:- I sucked a long breath as my eyes widened. The fake pretentious smile broke as I stared at him as if he had grown two heads over his shoulders. Devon turned to face me again, catching my eyes. With a smile playing on his lips, he continued, "And now that I think about it, I certainly am whipped by your charms, Elena! I am not great with words, and no matter how much I prepared, no words can contain my feelings as they should. So here I am asking you directly without beating around the bush." I watched horrified, as he went down on one knee. People gasped audibly in shock, must be mirroring my expressions. He finally pulled out his hand from his pants pocket to reveal a red velvet box. 'This is not happening! This is not happening!', my chants didn't change anything at all. He pressed the small button with his thumb and its lid opened to show a diamond-studded ring inside. My head turned heavy, and I thought I would collapse right then and there if he continued with that drama for another minute. Clearly, he was not done yet. *********** Instagram: author_rutujap Discord: https://discord.gg/wpyvsh42 ****** The cover is mine.

Familiar Yet Strangers!

DEVON

Ashleigh placed the files in front of me and smiled apologetically.

"I am sorry, but I have some more work for you to do. These are the financial reports for the last quarter of all of your projects along with your personal finances.

I have checked everything, but if you take a look at it before signing the papers then..."

Only looking at that much amount of work made me exhausted. I had more important things to do, and checking the accounts was the last thing I was interested in doing.

"Ashleigh, you are working for me for the past three years, and there isn't even a single number wrong. I trust you, and that is why instead of a personal Charted Accountant, I have you to handle my personal finances.

So just tell me where I have to sign, and we are good."

She smiled gratefully with flushed cheeks before pointing at the places where I needed to sign.

"Thank you, Boss! I will see you around."
