Chapter 1

"Sir." Dan called, walking into the spacious office hurriedly, the office was neat as usual and extremely cold as it always was. The coldness was from the man seated at the far end of the table close to the window where he could see everything going on outside.

Handsome with a pointed nose, a sea blue eye ball and a dark hair which was styled backward, his looks were enough to make any woman melt before him but his cold looks and condition would make one have a second thought about him.

He had everything a woman would want but he was on a wheelchair. A condition he wasn't born with but the condition life threw him in. He met with an unfortunate fate which took the life of his parents and made him paralyzed on a wheelchair when he was just ten.

From a lively and carefree boy, he became cold and insecure because he felt like a liability to others. But when he discovered who was behind the death of his parents, he became ruthless and that gave him the strength to take what belongs to him from the hands of his uncle.

"What do you want?" He asked without sparing the man before him a glance.

"I'm sorry for barging in the way I just did, but I need to tell you this urgently." Dan said.

"I'm all ears." He said with his eyes still fixed on his laptop.

"It's about the girl you asked me to look into, I have found her and you wouldn't believe who she turned out to be." He said in ecstasy.

"Who is she and what does she do?" He asked, looking away from what seemed like an important work to him a few minutes ago.

"Her name is Melissa McCarthy, does that name ring a bell?" He asked in his usual cheerful voice.

"Does this all look like a joke to you and since when did we get that close?" Alex snapped.

"I'm sorry sir."He quickly apologized.

"Mr McCarthy is a famous billionaire as well, he has fashion houses and his boutiques are in every corner of our country here, he sells trendy clothes and he's successful all on his own. I'm sure you have met him during those business parties..."

"Did you investigate the father or the daughter?" He asked curtly.

"No sir."

"Miss Melissa McCarthy is his daughter and she is the girl you have been searching for," he said with confidence.

"How sure are you?"

"I'm very sure sir, we searched everywhere based on your description and to confirm that she is the same girl you have been searching for, she was at the same spot that fateful day, so I'm confident she is the one."

If Melissa was the one who saved his life back then, he was glad that she was alive and well but there was still something confusing about this and he can understand if only she explained things personally to him.

But first he had to fulfill the promise he made to himself, he had to get married to the girl who saved him, the one he had been keeping his heart for all this while.

He was alive all thanks to her and to repay her good deeds, he had to get married to her at all cost because no other woman would ever win his heart the way she did.

"What do I do after this sir?" Dan asked, snapping him from his thoughts.

"Since her father is in the same caliber as I am, send a marriage proposal to the family and choose this weekend as our wedding day."

"Sir..." Dan said, cutting in.

"Do you have a problem with my orders?" He asked, glaring at him.

"No sir, I just need to be sure if I heard you right." He said.

"Find a vacant court room and free time, fix our wedding then and add the venue to the proposal letter, let me know when it gets to them and what they say about it." He ordered.

"Yes sir, I will do as you have ordered." He said, trying to walk away.

"One more thing. "Alex said, driving himself towards him.

"Do it in secret, I don't want my uncle finding out about this secret of ours else you won't live to see the next Christmas," he threatened.

"I understand.. sir." He stuttered before walking away.

Finally he got the woman he had been searching for, that is the best news he had heard since his parents death.

The door opened almost immediately revealing a man in his fifties accompanied by a young man who was almost the same age as Alex.

"The scared ant has decided to crawl out of his hidden house. "Jake said with a mocking smile as he made his way towards Alex.

"Why are you both here?" He asked, fisting his hands in anger.

"You shouldn't do that to your own relatives, don't forget we are the only families you have left." Jake taunted obviously trying to get him angry.

"How... how dare you call yourself family?" He asked, shaking in anger.

"You should be glad I still refer to you as a family despite the pitiful condition you are in. You should be glad you have two able men like I and my father but here you are feeling so full of yourself as you have always been, what a pity."

"Stop that Jake, you shouldn't upset him, you know it's bad for his health." Simpson said, walking close to the two young men slowly.

"Why are you stopping him, aren't you here to do the same?" Alex asked, snapping at him.

"I have grown past that Alex, you should know that yourself and moreover, I'm glad to see that you still have the same reaction you always do since you had this accident." He said leaning close to him.

"And it annoys me to see you breathing on the surface of the earth each time you show that ugly face of yours around me." He said spitefully, making Simpson smile faintly.

"There's nothing you can do about my face son and I will be breathing for as long as I want to, so get used to it." He said standing straight.

"We saw your assistant running around when he is meant to be by your side, what's the occasion?" Jake asked, walking to his table.

The file Dan left with him on Melissa was still there and he didn't want anyone to see that, especially the two serpents in his office.

"What do you think you are doing?" He asked driving himself to the table and snapped the file out of his hand.

"What do you have in there? It looks like a top notch secret." Jake said looking interested.

"Whatever I do is none of your business."

"We are still your family, young man!"

"And you are nothing but a murderer!" He snapped.

My father was the King of Wall Street until he was branded a fraud, turning the Maxwell name into a lead weight dragging me to the bottom of the Hudson. I walked into the Brennan Media Tower with blood-red lipstick and a desperate proposal, offering myself as a "paper wife" to Garland Brennan, the coldest billionaire in Manhattan. Garland didn’t even look at me as a human being; he tore my term sheet in half and called me "radioactive" before having security toss me out like trash. I returned to my rotting apartment in Bushwick only to find my roommate’s cousin, a debt collector named Jax, waiting to break my bones. He pinned me against the wall, his hand heavy on my throat as he sneered about selling me to a club to pay off my father's debts. With my ribs aching and my back against the radiator, I had to leak corporate secrets on Twitter just to summon Garland’s private mercenaries to stop a predator. The humiliation didn't stop there.
