Introduction

A contract marriage, Elsa and Geoffrey's lives began to intersect.
What happens when ice meets fire?
"You'll never be able to warm me, baby."
"No, when you say that, you're already deeply in love with me."

Chapter 1

"No, please stop!"

The room was dim, Elsa was pinned under the man and heard the sound of him unbuckling his belt.

She could sense that the man was clearly in the wrong state, that he might have taken some kind of stimulant drug.

She heard a gasp, like the low growl of a wild animal.

"Give it to me, and I'll pay you."

The man's voice was unexpectedly nice, but his tone was extraordinarily ruthless.

His hands ravaged her b*easts, and tears were already in Elsa's eyes. But she couldn't push this man away, after all, she was the one who voluntarily sold her body to make money.

But to her embarrassment, in addition to the pain, the man's actions brought her unspeakable pleasure.

But then a sharp pain hit her as his pnis broke into her vgina without any finesse. A tearing sensation came and she could feel herself bleeding, her otherwise dry v*gina lubricated by the blood that facilitated the man's thrusts.

She struggled to escape from this torture, only to have the man bite the back of her neck and thrust harder into her.

Elsa let out a moan of pain as the man on top of her simply acted like an irrational beast, giving vent to his animal lust on her. It wasn't until he reached his climax that he bit into her b*east, leaving a deep mark.

The man withdrew from her, gasped and fished out a wad of bills from his jacket pocket and dumped them on the bed, saying coldly with his last bit of strength, "Here's your fee." After saying that, he went back to bed and quickly fell into sleep with his back to Elsa.

It wasn't until the sound of even breathing came that Elsa slowly climbed out of bed, humiliatingly picked up the money and limped out of the room.


A month later, at the entrance of Shengnuo Hospital.

A man was holding a girl's hand and saying something, the two were having a conflict over something.

The girl, whose body was already a bit thin, used all her strength to shake off the man's hand, and with indignation in her eyes, she said.

"On what grounds? I will not agree! I will not marry even if I die!"

Snap!

The man frowned and roared with anger: "Elsa I tell you, I am your father, this is my order, today you must marry!" Elsa, who was a little dizzy from the slap, raised her hand and touched her sore spot, looked up at the man in front of her, her nose was sore, and tears fell down indefensibly.

This man is his own father ah! Today, he is forcing himself to marry someone he doesn't know.

Almost into despair Elsa with a bitter smile: "Heh! Who made the rule that parents must marry? And my father died when I was ten years old! Who are you? How dare you impersonate my father here and ask me to marry someone I don't know!" Hearing Elsa's crazy words, Eugene shivered a little in anger.

In order to avoid being hurt by mistake, Eugene took several steps backward to make a safe distance from Elsa, and asked the two bodyguards accompanying her to stand between them.

Seeing Eugene in this state, Elsa sneered and began to sarcastically describe him.

"Eugene.Campbell, you have to remember! Everything you got today is because you married your mother and got the help of grandpa. If it weren't for Mother and Grandpa, you'd be worse than a cat or a dog right now!"

Eugene was already a little angry, and when he heard these words, he became even more irritable, and immediately rushed forward and raised his palm to hit Elsa in the face. But Elsa was not intimidated, nor did she step back, but continued to look at him with a cold look: "It seems that this is the heart of the matter was said!" "Fuck!"

In order to carry out the plan smoothly, Eugene can not move Elsa, can only cursed, and then hold a fist heavy to the side of the tree smashed, the tree shakes violently, a large number of tender green leaves from the trunk of the tree quickly fall.

Seeing that a ground of falling leaves, it is known that Eugene that palm with a strong force. If that palm hit Elsa's face, the consequences are unimaginable.

It's a good thing Eugene didn't slap Elsa on the face, because Eugene, who values immediate benefits more than anything else, clearly knew that if he did hit Elsa on the face, it wouldn't matter if Elsa was disfigured, but losing the benefits given by Kane Group would be a huge loss that couldn't be recovered.

"Elsa, you listen to me clearly! I can get to this position today not by others, but by myself in practice step by step struggle to come! None of this has anything to do with your mother and grandfather!"

Eugene's face turned red from hysterical sophistry, but the bodyguard only whispered a few words in his ear. Eugene, who was still irritable, immediately removed the flames around him and falsely touched Elsa's mesmerizing cheek. There was a little pity in his eyes, then he changed his look to a softer one and started to persuade her.

"Elsa, my dear daughter, daddy is doing all this for your own good. You may have heard of the Kane Group? This time, the person daddy let you marry is the CEO of Kane Group."

Elsa gazed at him coldly and did not answer Eugene's half-word. Elsa had heard too much about the CEO of Kane Group. That person is not only a person with disabled legs, but also explosive and irritable, so Eugene is digging a hole for Elsa to jump into.

Looking at Elsa, who still has no change in expression, Eugene, who has been lobbying for a long time, finally did not hold back and showed his ugly fangs.

"You do not give shame! It's God's gift to you to marry Kane's president!"

Elsa now had nothing but hatred for the person in front of her, so she responded coldly, "Oh, really? A blessing? If it's a blessing, then why don't you give it to your stepdaughter Wendy, who married ......"

Eugene directly interrupted Elsa's tone angry and firm, "You are the eldest daughter, you did not marry your sister how to marry? Today married must be you!"

"I won't marry! You can go to Wendy or you can find another stepdaughter!" With that Elsa was about to turn around and leave.

At that moment, Eugene gave a look to the bodyguard standing beside him, who received his order and moved closer to Elsa.

Elsa immediately sensed that something was wrong and turned around to run to the hospital, but no matter how she ran, the scenery around her did not change a bit.

It turned out that Elsa had already been two bodyguards in the air, before she ran fast just in vain.

Eugene finally showed his fox tail and sneered: "Elsa, you should think about your mother who is still in bed, she is waiting for the money to cure her illness! I'm sure you didn't give me any money before, so I'm afraid you don't have any money for your mother's treatment!"

Elsa looked at him with indignation, as if she was using all her strength to yell, "What do you want?"

Eugene playfully raised his hand and touched her face, slowly moved closer to her and whispered in her ear, "I can consider funding your mother's medical treatment if you marry her this time, but I also have conditions!"

Speaking of her mother, Elsa was a little shaken, she hung her head, her heart was very tormented.

"Once again, I have plenty of time to wait for your reply, but it's hard to say if your mother has time to wait. If you can successfully marry this time, do not give me trouble, your mother's medical expenses I pay. If you still choose not to marry, I will not force you, you can wait to collect your mother's body! The first thing you need to do is to get the best out of your mother.

"Hahahahahahahahaha!"

Seeing Eugene like this, Elsa laughed with mockery and helplessness.

Then Elsa felt a pain in the back of her neck, her eyes went black, and then she knew nothing more.

Eugene looked at the already fainted Elsa and waved his hand to the bodyguards and said, "Okay, throw her in the car! I don't need to remind you of what's going on back there, right?"

The bodyguards nodded their heads to show that they understood, and then threw Elsa, who had passed out, into the car without any mercy.

This violent external force caused the things that were still staying in Elsa's pockets to fall out.

Eugene was attracted by an ultrasound sheet with unknown contents in the original parking place when he watched the car leave, Eugene walked towards the sheet uncontrollably and picked it up, opened it and the contents made him very angry and started cursing.

"This girl is not picking up too much! It is true that what kind of mother has what kind of daughter!"

Eugene was furious and stomped anxiously in the same place. "Elsa is giving herself a hard time! If the CEO of Kane Group knows she's pregnant, it won't be easy."

Thinking of this, Eugene's originally red and bloodied face suddenly turned white. His feet unconsciously ran in the direction of the car, chasing and regretting, until he collapsed on his knees with some physical exhaustion.

Elsa's car was no longer in sight, and Eugene had thought of a way to hide it from everyone.

Although the situation is not very optimistic, but he can also turn this bad thing into good.

As long as the CEO Elsa and the same room, the president of the Kane Group will definitely think that Elsa is carrying his child.

Thinking about it, Eugene played his own game in his mind.

......

Elsa, who was in a coma, slowly opened her eyes, reached out and touched the back of her head where she had been hit by the bodyguard, and struggled to get up to look around.

The strange environment in front of her woke up Elsa, who was still a bit confused, and she immediately stood up from the sofa.

This place is very dark, but fortunately can barely see the furnishings of the house. At this moment, Elsa's only thought was to get out of here.

But as she moved a little closer to the door, she suddenly remembered Eugene's words. Her mother was in desperate need of an operation fee, and if she didn't get the money to save her mother, she would definitely not survive.

Now that she had been sent here by Eugene mercilessly, she could only save her mother's life by completing Eugene's account.

Elsa looked gloomy and put down the hand that had touched the door handle, like a walking corpse back to the sofa.

In the process of soothing her emotions, Elsa's eyes were drawn to the two certificates on the coffee table.

She approached the coffee table with a little curiosity and saw what was prominently written on the two certificates - it was a marriage certificate!

These vows stung Elsa's every nerve, and she was so frightened that she took many steps backwards, tripped over something, and fell straight backwards. Elsa cried as she hugged her knees, wondering how she had gone from unmarried to married in an instant. How ironic it was! Not only had she never met the husband on her marriage certificate, she didn't even know about such a big deal as getting a marriage certificate.

"Heh!"

Her laughter was full of irony; she hated herself for having such a father, and she hated herself even more for not being able to cure her mother.

At this second, a thought sprang up in Elsa's mind: How wonderful it would be if her mother had never met Eugene! Even if there was no more Elsa in this world, as long as her mother could live in peace, it would be enough.

But it has already happened, regret is useless ah! This incident completely ripped open Elsa's scars filled memories that had been sealed for several years.

On the day of Elsa's 10th birthday, her mother and grandfather were celebrating her birthday downstairs in the hall.

At that time she was really happy, but a moment of chance, the young girl saw Susan and Eugene enter a room one after the other, and came out after a long time. Elsa, who was young and ignorant at the time, did not notice the difference, but her happiness stopped two months later when her grandfather passed away.

The father, Eugene, took advantage of the turmoil in the company to calm people down. I thought he was being kind, but he took the opportunity to divide Grandpa's company into his own name little by little.

Even on the day when Eugene completely took over his grandfather's company, he ruthlessly swept ten-year-old Elsa and her still-pregnant mother out of the house. During this time, Elsa and her mother pleaded with their father countless times to keep them and not abandon them so cruelly.

Three months later, the father married Susan, the mother's so-called best friend. The mother, who had faith that day, was disheartened, but would still sit at the door every day, waiting for her husband's return.

Without any source of livelihood at that time, they had to live on the severance pay given by the miserly Eugene.

Until a month ago, her mother went to the hospital for treatment of depression, but on the way accidentally had a car accident, in order to raise money for her mother's treatment, Elsa sold her body. Elsa knew she had no way to pay for her mother's treatment, so she finally had no choice but to beg her father, Eugene.

When she asked Eugene, Eugene promised to give her another sum of money, but only on the condition that she would marry the CEO of Kane Group instead of her sister Wendy.

On the surface, this sounds like a great bargain for her.

But no one knows that the CEO of Kane Group is a brutal man with two disabled legs, which is undoubtedly pushing her into the fire. Thinking of this, Elsa lost all hope and curled up on the sofa with anxiety. Suddenly, the room lit up with blinding light, Elsa subconsciously raised her hand to block the light.

In the light, she was like a skinny kitten, and her every move was watched by the handsome looking man in the wheelchair at the door.

I woke up three years into a marriage I barely remembered—pregnant with twins that weren't my husband's.

But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.

Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?
