The Ruthless CEO's Revenge Wife

[WARNING: CONTAINS PHYSICAL ABUSE AND RAPE] ------------------------------------------------------ “What are you doing, Logan?” Jean’s voice was sharp, but her body betrayed her leaning into the warmth of his breath as his lips traced a sinful path down her neck. “You promised me a kiss every day, remember?” Logan murmured, his smirk curling against her skin. “Or should I read the contract to you again?” She should pull away. She knows this is wrong. But resisting Logan Kingsley? That was never in the plan. ------------------------------------------------------ Jean Adams has spent her entire life under the suffocating control of her powerful family, molded into the perfect daughter, the flawless businesswoman, and the untouchable heiress. But when her parents cross the final line, demanding she marry the very man who once shattered her, she refuses to be their pawn any longer. If they want a marriage, she’ll give them one. But on her terms. Logan Kingsley, her sworn enemy. A self-made billionaire with a reputation for winning, Logan has spent years battling Jean in boardrooms and beyond. They have never seen eye to eye, their hatred simmering since childhood. But when Jean offers him a deal, a contract marriage that benefits them both, he doesn’t hesitate. For Logan, marrying Jean is a strategic move. For Jean, it’s her ultimate revenge. Tying herself to Logan is the perfect way to break free from her family’s grip, humiliate them, and destroy the future they tried to force upon her. But as their fake marriage plays out under the public eye, their carefully crafted plan starts to unravel. Old wounds resurface. The line between pretense and reality blurs. And the one thing Jean swore she’d never risk, her heart, may become the biggest casualty of all. In a game of power, betrayal, and unexpected passion, Jean and Logan must decide: Is their marriage just a weapon for revenge, or has it become something far more dangerous?

Billionaire-Dollar Deception

Funny how life can throw a whole circus your way in just one day. Ava Patel, a rising star in City X’s modeling scene, thought she was finally catching her big break—until she discovered her manager, who also happened to be her boyfriend, had cleaned out her bank account and disappeared without a trace. To make matters worse, he didn’t just vanish—he left her for a woman Ava had never even heard of. Betrayal? Check. Broke? Check. Heartbroken and humiliated? Triple check. But just when she thought rock bottom couldn’t get any deeper, fate decided to bring a shovel. Enter Liam Carter, a brooding billionaire tycoon with a chip on his shoulder and an outrageous request: he wanted Ava to go undercover, pretending to be someone she’s not, in order to spy on his business rival, Ethan Torres.

But money talks, and in Ava’s case, it screamed. After some serious inner conflict—and a glance at her empty bank account—she agreed.

And what exactly is Ava planning behind those smirks and stilettos?
