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.

She Has To Pay!

DEVON

I was in my office back in Swindon, discussing a few things with Smith and others. Christine stepped out of the office to attend to a call.

When she returned, she didn't come back alone. She had someone else with her.

I looked up when she opened the door and called me. I was surprised to see Sheriff Bolt standing at the door beside Christine.

"Mr Sanders! Can I have your ten minutes please? It's important." He said with a serious face.

I glanced at Christine, but she only shrugged her shoulders.

"Sure! Please come in." I allowed him before turning to the men sitting before me. "I will get back to you after the lunch." I told.

All of them stood up and made their way out of the office but not before acknowledging the tall figure of Sheriff.

Christine closed the door once everyone was out. Only two of us inside the office, I gestured to Sheriff to take a seat.
