Mr. Billionaire's Unwanted Bride
*Based on a true story where love has its dark sides but burns hotter than ever* Abandoned by her mother and orphaned at a young age, Natalie held a deep-seated mistrust for the world especially when it came to men. Her strategy for survival was simple: work hard enough to scrape by each month and rely solely on yourself! Fate had other plans in store for her. Enter Alonso Valois, a charismatic billionaire who swept into her life and showed her just how right a man can be. Despite Natalie's attempts to keep him at arm's length, Alonso who had no intention of letting her slip away shocked her by proposing just two weeks after their first encounter! Was this the "happily ever after" Natalie had dreamt of? Far from it. Walking into the Valois mansion with Alonso's dad calling all the shots felt like walking into a lion's den for Natalie. Little did she know that while she was trying her best to fit in, her in-laws were scrambling to conceal the truth about what happened to the women in the Valois family. As the past comes haunting Alonso and demanding its price, will the unwanted bride be the one who saves the Valois ship from sinking? Or will she be the first one to jump off that sinking ship? *** Updates every Monday! +1 bonus chapter for 300 Power Stones +1 bonus chapter for 50 Golden Tickets +5 bonus chapters whenever the book receives a Magic Castle *Credit of the art goes to the owner*
Threatened at the Police Station
It was Natalie's first time inside a police station. Though she had not been there for long, the walls already felt as if they were pressing on her chest. She stood across from the entrance, her eyes darting nervously between the officers walking around tensely and the corridor that led to the interrogation rooms where she might be taken next.
Though no one had explicitly said it, Natalie felt like the police suspected she was involved in the incident with Alonso outside her apartment building earlier that night.
Feeling a pair of concerned blue eyes watching her every move, she did her best not to let Jack see just how frightened she truly was. Her uncle who stood at her side would have usually been lost in the haze of alcohol at this hour, but there he was, sober for the first time in ages and right where she needed him to be.
"Calm down. You did nothing wrong," he said when they locked eyes together.
