The Illegitimate Contract: Falling for My Fake Wife
Kai Qi, the illegitimate son of the ruthless Qi empire, never wanted a wife — especially not one forced on him by a cold business deal.
On the morning of his engagement, he is dragged into a three-year contract marriage with Mira Yi — the quiet, illegitimate daughter of the rival Yi family. The terms are crystal clear: act as husband and wife in public, fulfill “marital duties” when required, show zero real feelings, and walk away with millions when the contract ends. In exchange, the Qi family will pump enough money into the crumbling Yi business to save Mira’s family from total bankruptcy.
For Kai, it’s just another cage. Cold, distant, and already haunted by a phone call from his long-lost college crush Liora — the woman who once made his heart race — he plans to treat this marriage like any other transaction.
But Mira is nothing like the fragile girl he imagined. Behind her soft eyes lies a sharp mind and quiet strength that slowly chips away at his icy walls. Living under the same roof, pretending to be in love at galas and board meetings, the lines begin to blur.
When jealousy ignites and old flames reappear, Kai realizes the cruelest truth: the contract he signed to protect his freedom might be the very thing that destroys it.
Three years. One signature. Zero feelings allowed.
Will they survive the fine print… or will their hearts secretly sign a different agreement?
A slow-burn contract marriage filled with forced proximity, hidden pain, explosive jealousy, and two illegitimate souls who were never supposed to fall in love.
