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.

Greetings From Well Wisher!

ELENA

I was overwhelmed, confused and still finding it hard to believe that this was indeed happening. My phone hadn't stopped ringing, and my mailbox was full of hundreds of new congratulatory emails.

The whole town of Swindon now knew the news of the award, courtesy to my office staff.

The whole building was buzzing with exhilaration, celebrating my success. And the happiest people were, of course, Joanna and Steve.

They were running from here and there, screaming at the top of their lungs and with smiles so wide on their faces that I feared they may end up with slit faces.

I sat in my office, my phone on silent mode and my laptop closed to give me a breather. Staring at the cabin full of flowers and bouquets, I sat in my chair with a blank mind.

I couldn't believe it!

Was I living a dream?

Because if yes, then I want dad to wake me up with another of his rant on my poor career choice. Because this all felt so surreal that I ended up pinching myself eight times in a day.
