Introduction

I was trying to steal a child from my comatose billionaire husband, but just as I touched him, his dark eyes suddenly snapped open.

"Thirty million dowry, and you are sold to the Duncan family." My stepmother's words echoed in my head. I was forced to marry Brandon, a man rumored to be a ruthless genius, but who had been lying in a dirty room as a vegetable for a year.

My family abandoned me, and my fiancé slept with my adopted sister. I had nothing left. If Brandon died, I would be thrown onto the streets. So, looking at his breathtakingly handsome face and perfectly sculpted body, I made a crazy decision: I needed his heir.

I locked the door, trembling as I took off his clothes. "Just treat me as a tool, please don't mind," I whispered to his sleeping face.

I straddled him, my heart pounding out of my chest. I thought he couldn't feel a thing. I thought I was safe. But just as I leaned down, a slender, bone-chilling hand suddenly grabbed my wrist like a vice.

I screamed, my blood running cold.

His ink-black eyes, filled with three feet of ice and demonic fury, stared right into my soul. The man who had been declared braindead was awake.

"What did you do to me?" His voice was hoarse, his grip tightening around my throat. "Do you know who I am?"

I was trapped under the most dangerous man in the country, and I had just been caught trying to use him.

Chapter 1

"Thirty million dowry goes to the Griffin Family, and Miss Griffin should also get married!"

Victoria was pushed into the car and through the window, she saw her stepmother Julia embracing the real Griffin Family heiress, Erica, with a smug look on her face.

Today was victoria's wedding day, but she didn't even know who the groom was. All she knew was that he was a vegetable and had given the Griffin Family thirty million.

The Griffin Family didn't want their biological daughter to suffer, so they sold Victoria, their "adopted daughter," like a commodity.

Victoria suppressed her bitterness and tentatively asked the butler in the front row, "Excuse me, who is your young master?"

The butler glanced at her through the rearview mirror and coldly replied, "No matter who my young master is, as long as you remember that you belong to him for the rest of your life, except for death." Victoria's heart sank instantly. She almost forgot that the only requirement for the proposal was that there would be no divorce.

So her life was over.

The black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of an ancient and dilapidated villa.

Before Victoria could react, she was pushed into a room by the butler.

"The young master is inside."

As soon as she entered the room, she was almost forced to retreat by the sour smell.

Victoria almost vomited, but was shocked into silence when she saw the man.

Brandon!

The Duncan Family was rumored to be the richest in Hua Country, and Brandon, the CEO of Cosmos Group, held half of the world's economic lifeline. He had been featured in various financial magazines since he was a teenager and was a genius with an IQ over 160...

It was rumored that Brandon was domineering, cold, and ruthless. But who would have thought that he had been living in such a dirty and smelly little room for a year, unable to take care of himself!

Had Brandon become a vegetable and been abandoned by his family?

She was also a person abandoned by her family...

Thinking of this, Victoria looked at him with regret, then went out to find tools to clean the room.

After tidying up the room, she looked at the man again and found hot water and a towel.

This man, whom she would never have had the chance to meet in her lifetime, was now lying quietly here, letting her handle him. She took off his clothes.

Blushing, Victoria gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not trying to look at you on purpose. Just treat me as a tool and don't mind, okay?"

She closed her eyes and reached out her hand.

But just as she touched him, she suddenly felt the man's body move.

"Ah..."

She almost screamed.

Wasn't he a vegetable? He shouldn't be able to move...

Victoria almost ran out of the room, but she bravely opened her eyes and saw the man still lying there motionless, with his eyes tightly closed.

He hadn't woken up, and the movement was just her imagination. After all, it was her first time doing something like this, and she was too nervous.

She got up, picked up the hot water, and ran out.

The huge villa was quiet until evening, when there was finally some movement outside.

A drunken servant came in and was startled.

"Ah, you're the young lady who was bought, right..."

Bought...

Victoria's heart ached. "Yes, why is there no one here? Where are the Duncan Family people?"

"Heh, a dying man, who would come here to see him? It's really unlucky. You still want to come in and find something valuable..."

A dying man, and the Duncan Family didn't even bother to take a look?

Victoria sighed again and went back to the room to prepare to take care of Brandon and put him to sleep.

But just then, her phone suddenly rang.

She opened it and saw only one message: Room 888 at the Imperial Court Hotel, I'm waiting for you.

Dylan!

He wanted to see her?

Thinking about her years of love with Dylan, and how they were already at the stage of discussing marriage, Victoria felt heartbroken that she was forced to marry a vegetable man.

If Dylan knew she was married, how much pain would he feel?

Victoria quickly packed up and took a taxi out.

She arrived at the hotel according to the text message.

Victoria stood in front of the door, and before she knocked, she heard her sister Erica's voice from inside the room.

"Dylan, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me being with you, I could have married that vegetable man instead of Victoria. I regret it so much..." "It's not your fault. As a legitimate daughter of the Griffin Family, you were occupied by Victoria for so many years. Now that you have finally returned to your roots, how can you marry a vegetable man and become a widow?"

"But, I heard from the butler that their young master may die soon. When that happens, maybe Victoria can come back home, and you might still be able to be with her."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I love you, not her. Even if she comes back, I won't be with her! And I haven't touched her in so many years. If it weren't for her pestering me, I would have broken up with her long ago. Be good, don't move, let me love you..."

"Dylan..."

Victoria's limbs stiffened, and she couldn't believe what she was hearing. She covered her mouth in disbelief.

She thought she owed Erica and wanted to repay the Griffin Family's kindness and make up for Erica, so she agreed to marry in her place.

But the man she had loved for years had already been involved with Erica! And she had been fooled like a fool from beginning to end!

Victoria suddenly felt weak and collapsed on the ground. The sound inside the room pierced her head. She wanted to escape, but she was like a puppet with no strength to move. After a while, the noise in the room gradually subsided, and with a "click," the door opened. A shadow fell on victoria's head. "Victoria, you should have seen it all, right?" Erica's face still had a blush from just now. She grabbed victoria's hair and looked proud. "Dylan has been with me for a long time, but we didn't want to tell you because of your engagement. Now, you're the one who married a vegetable for money. Everyone will know that it's not us who betrayed you, but you who were blinded by money."

Victoria's eyes turned red, looking at Erica in disbelief. "Erica! I was forced to marry in your place!"

"In my place?" Erica stirred her hair delicately and laughed heartily. "Victoria, do you know why your parents kept you in the Griffin Family? You're just a dog we raised in the Griffin Family!"

"Your parents have raised you for twenty years, and being able to sell yourself for thirty million to repay the Griffin Family is considered your last bit of worth!"

Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.
