Mr. CEO's Amazing Contract Wife

Monica, trapped by family debt, finds herself bound to the icy CEO, Sylvester Norman, in a contract marriage. He needs a wife to secure his inheritance, and she's just a 'plain' means to an end. But as their lives intertwine, can a heart-hardened billionaire and a shy, unassuming woman find an unexpected truth amidst a web of secrets and past wounds? Or is love truly off-limits?

The air in Mr. Herbert Norman's study was thick with unspoken tension, a bitterness that clung to the velvet curtains and the polished mahogany desk. His voice, hushed yet cutting, delivered an ultimatum that sliced through the room like a cold blade.

"My decision is final. I will be back in six months. You should be married by then or every inheritance goes to your brother." Mr. Herbert Norman's words landed heavy, but Sylvester, leaning back in the plush chair, kept his gaze lowered, a mask of forced composure hiding the storm brewing within him. He wouldn't give his father the satisfaction of seeing his chagrin.

"You know why I can't settle down," Sylvester finally said, his voice a low, agonized rasp.

Mr. Herbert Norman snapped, pouring himself a glass of tequila, the amber liquid swirling with his barely concealed resentment. "Oh, I do, Sly. That was five years ago. It wasn't your humiliation alone but our families' too. You have to move on."

Sylvester's grip tightened on the armrest. "So easy for you to say – you weren't the one involved and it's not your name snaking on the lips of the media."
