The Bride He Betrayed
837 Views · Ongoing · Missy Smith
Lauren Hayes never thought billionaire Michael Bennett would notice her, let alone ask her to marry him. Their marriage starts as a deal to protect his inheritance and save her mother’s house. But as they spend time together—at events, in arguments, and on unexpected nights—their arrangement starts to feel real. Lauren falls for the man behind the suits and pressure. For the first time, she thinks Michael might love her back.
Then Michael’s ex-fiancée comes back with a secret that could ruin everything. Photos, hotel records, and a claim of pregnancy make Michael think Lauren has lied to him all along. Instead of trusting her, he listens to his family and accuses Lauren of marrying him for his money. Heartbroken and pregnant, Lauren leaves before Michael can hurt her more. He lets her go, thinking it’s easier to be the one who ends things.
Two years later, Lauren comes back with a little boy who looks just like Michael and carries the Bennett name. Michael wants answers, his son, and the wife he still loves. Lauren wants nothing from the man who didn’t believe her when it counted. As old secrets come to light, Michael learns his mother and ex-fiancée broke up his marriage to protect the family business. Now, he has to prove he deserves a second chance with the woman he hurt.
