Billionaire's Secret Daughter

Billionaire's Secret Daughter

{Mature content} Slow burn: so be warned She is a billionaire's daughter in search of true love, despite all the heartbreaks she has been through... He is a tycoon's son looking for true love... when their paths cross will there be a great love story between these two? ********* "What do you think about Elias?" Esmeralda blinked dumbly at her father, her mind turning blank. Noticing his daughter's expression, the older man chuckled. "I had a conversation with Patrick yesterday." Hearing the name of her father's dear friend, Esmeralda's heart dropped. She didn't have a good feeling about where this conversation was going. "He had brought up a brilliant suggestion." Her father's eyes practically sparkled with excitement, a direct contrast to the building dread in Esmeralda's stomach. "My dear, how do you feel about marrying Elias?" Elias was Patrick's son, someone that Esmeralda had grown up with. However, that was all he was to her. Elias is just a friend and nothing more to her. "I don't like Elias that way, Dad." Esmeralda frowned. "You don't?'' Mr. Fernandez asked after hearing his daughter's reply. Esmeralda exhaled. "Dad, look, Elias and I are just friends. Nothing more." "But you two were so close growing up. It would be a good match, Esmeralda," her father said. Silently, Esmeralda tightly clenched her fists at her sides, trying her best to contain herself. Her father was always like this-- once he had made a decision, he wouldn't listen to any other suggestions, even if he was the one that had asked for those differing opinions in the first place. "But Dad--" "Who knows?" Mr. Fernandez cut in before Esmeralda could finish her sentence. "As the saying goes, no good relationship starts without a good friendship first. After your marriage, you might both develop feelings for each other." "Elias and I--" Ignoring her, he continued, "The boy might even welcome the arrangement. We always thought that he had a thing for you." With a wink, Mr. Fernandez stood up from his seat. "Try talking to him first so that we can get an idea of what he feels about this arrangement, alright? If he has feelings for you, it wouldn't be too bad an idea to get married," he said. Walking over, he gave his daughter's shoulder a light squeeze. All Esmeralda felt were the chains on her body tightening. She didn't want this marriage; she didn't need to be bound by it. However, nothing she was saying was getting through to her father. "I'm sure that after you see how much he loves you and how good he is, you will eventually learn to love him too." With those final words, Mr. Fenandez left the room, leaving his daughter to simmer in the aftershock of the news he had just dropped on her. Like it?

The Shadow of The Past

The Shadow of The Past

[Warning: R-18] ****** Synopsis What happens when the ice meets the fire in the same firm? Leonora has returned to her home country and this time it's for good. She didn't return alone, she brought someone with her who will add a bit of spice to her world. And to make things worse, she's going to be working with the man she left behind. As soon as he hears the sound of Mr Dark calling out his name, Patrick Andrade feels a chill go through his entire body. And upon seeing the handsome Patrick Andrade, who has not lost his charm and good taste in clothes, dressed in a very formal outfit, Leonora feels nothing but indifference toward him. What Patrick didn't know is that just like him, Leonora as well is a different woman now. If they have become unapproachable cold-hearted people, it's because of what happened to them years ago. What will happen when the truth of their past comes to light? Will Leonora overcome their differences and let their love rekindle or will she move on and start over with somebody else? ****** Author's Note: If you're looking for a romantic story where the female lead has a weak personality - or women who endure insults and forgive everything in the name of love, I am sorry to inform you that this book is not about that. This story focuses more on a family's daily life, life as a couple, human rights, and making true friendships in adulthood. This is my first original novel, so I hope you enjoy reading it. The book has a happy ending. If you like the story and would love to support this book, you can do it by leaving your feedback so I know where to improve. Many thanks in advance for your support.
