More Than A Business Deal

Upon our wedding day, my new husband declared, "This marriage is merely a business arrangement; don't expect love or commitment from me." Little did I know, I was about to embark on a challenging journey to make our prearranged marriage work. Just weeks after the vows, a mistress loomed, threatening to upend everything, casting doubt on our union. Hazel Reyes' life took a sudden turn when she received the devastating news that her beloved father was gravely ill. With no choice but to honor his final wish, she rushed home from her vacation to face an arranged marriage. My father, fearing for her future in a ruthless capitalist world, believed this union might provide her stability as an orphan. Against her better judgment, Hazel found herself tied to Atticus Hayland, the enigmatic billionaire and the mastermind behind the nation's largest construction empire. He agreed to the marriage, offering a tempting deal: thirty percent ownership and management rights, all for the sake of appearances. To my surprise, instead of a pawn, Hazel refused to be discarded so easily. Determined to win Atticus's heart and secure her place, she vowed to rid him of his past fiancée, who continued to haunt him as his mistress. In this high-stakes game of love and business, Hazel's resilience is put to the test. Will she triumph and become the one true love in Atticus's eyes, or will she fall victim to his complicated past? The outcome remains uncertain as Hazel fights for her place in his life.
