Billionaire's Marriage Of In-Convenience

From "can I borrow a kiss for bet" to "It was nice sleeping with you" Ethan and Esmeralda entered the most inconvenient marriage of the century. _______ A commitment-phobic and emotionally unavailable Billionaire. That is the reputation that precedes Ethan Westbury. The words cold and distant don't even begin to describe him. An unwarned kiss made him cross his path with Esmeralda Fox, the eccentric actress. She is sure that the billionaire who has more money than emotions is the devil in disguise. Now, the story gets spicy here. Ethan's grandfather's will inheritance clause had posed a great threat to everything he had achieved so far in his life. Get married before his thirty-fourth birthday or lose everything to his Asshole cousin who would stop at nothing to defeat him. Marrying the emerald-eyed curvy beauty is the only option he had. The problem? He is unable to keep up his distant and cold appeal before the devilish beauty. She is everything he hadn't expected. She is like a typhoon, breaking all of his fences and walls and creeping into his heart like a clawing vine. Suddenly, it's impossible for him to keep up with this marriage of convenience when his contractual wife is nothing but an inconvenience with a capital I.

Convince her for a meeting!

Knox took the paper and read the fourth condition. "You want to be gifted a fancy wine bottle every week? That's absurd!"

Ivy didn't tell them that it wasn't absurd as an eighteen years old girl wasn't allowed to buy alcohol here which didn't make sense to her. Hey, don't call her an alcoholic. She just needed a sip to survive the cruelty and brutality of the modern time. If only she was allowed to buy alcohol here, she wouldn't have put that condition here. She was a law-abiding person thorough and thorough! 

"What's the fifth condition?" Selene asked. She just hoped that it was not as weird as the last four conditions. Then again, she wouldn't be surprised if it was another weird condition. She reached the conclusion– this young girl was not mean, just weird. 

"That Violent the bitch should always stay away from her or she would charge a 20% salary hike each time she sees her, "Knox was stunned by the choice of words. Dear Lord, what had Violet done to offend this little girl? It seemed like an old feud to him. Whatever, it was. He wanted no part in it. He would keep his innocent and delicate girlfriend away from the feud too! 

"Shall we go now?" Ivy asked them once they had discussed her minor five conditions. 

Selene and Knox only nodded their heads. Was there something they could do about it? No, right? So they had no idea but to accept it or their romance would stop blooming. He couldn't take any chances right now. His family was already in a mess. If he announced that he was in love with Selene Westbury, his father might have had a heart attack. He would keep looking for Kierra so his old man didn't die. 

When they reached the office, Asher and Violet were not in view. Ethan was negotiating with Simon which meant the bitchy couple was sent away. Good riddance! No one liked them in the first place. 

"Miss Fox is ready to sign the contract but she has five conditions. I don't mind agreeing to them, "Knox said with a look of hidden exasperation.  "Please prepare the new contract."

Ethan, raised his eyes to see who this Miss Fox was. His lips tugged to form a smile when he looked at the dangerous little fox. Lately, he had been getting a lot amused by the Fox sisters. 

"Little Fox?" Ethan was amused when she ignored him. "Where is the big Fox?"

"At home with baby Ker, "Ivy mumbled. Why did she even answer him?  

"Baby Ker?" Ethan furrowed his brows. Then a look of realisation fell on him as he said, "Oh, the mistake she is raising. Did Violet bully you?"

"Yes, "Ivy said, without an expression. Did she snitch? No, she was just being truthful here.  

"I will have a talk with her, "Ethan assured her. 

"No, my sister said I shouldn't snitch on a bimbo,  "Ivy said as a matter of fact. 

Simon gaped at her choice of words. 

Selene choked on air. 

Knox patted her back gently while Ethan glared at him for touching his sister. 

Ivy was as usual standing there nonchalantly. 

Simon was bewildered by the insertion of weird conditions but Ethan hasn't expected anything less weird from the Fox sisters. 

Everyone was stunned when Ethan announced that he was seeing Ivy off. Who was this girl and why was she getting such special treatment from him? 

"You are savage, "Ethan mused. "I wonder why you never did anything to the man who hurt your sister."

Ivy shrugged. "I just burned donkey shit outside his house and office. Took him a week to get the smell off his house. And I might have mixed milk powder in his food forgetting that he is lactose intolerant. Or posted about his number of stepmothers."

"You are violent in a very non-violent way, "Ethan concluded. "Do you want a lift?"

"My sister is picking me up, "Ivy said. 

"Little Fox, you are evil, "Ethan muttered. "Can you convince your sister to meet me once?"

"No, "Ivy replied. He whispered something in her ear and her eyes shone with greed. "Fine. You have thirty minutes. She will meet you in the French restaurant."

A/N: Ivy and Ethan can make a good team against Esmeralda. Don't you think so?
