Rain was falling heavily when Rose stood outside the bank. Her hands were shaking. She held a paper in her hand.
"Final Notice."
If she did not pay the loan in three days, the bank would take her house.
Her father was sick. . Rose was the only one earning money, but her small job was not enough.
She felt hopeless.
Suddenly, a black luxury car stopped in front of her. A tall, handsome man stepped out. He was wearing a black suit. His face was calm but cold.
"Miss Rose he asked in a deep voice.
"Yes…" she replied softly.
"My name is Nick Knight."
Everyone knew that name. He was one of the youngest billionaires in the country.
"I have an offer for you," he said.
Rose was confused. "Offer?"
"Yes. Marry me for one year."
Her heart stopped.
"It will be a contract marriage. Fake relationship. In return, I will pay all your father's debts and give you five million dollars."
Rose couldn't believe it.
"Why me?" she asked.
Nick looked into her eyes.
"Because I need a wife. And you need money."
The rain became heavier.
This was not a love story.
It was a deal.
But neither of them knew…
This contract would change their hearts forever. Chapter 2 The Agreement. Rose could not sleep that night.
Marriage? To a billionaire? For one year?
It sounded crazy.
But when she looked at her father sleeping on the hospital bed, her heart hurt. The doctor had already warned her. Without money, the treatment would stop.
The next morning, a car came to pick her up. She was taken to a tall glass building — the head office of Knight Corporation.
Inside, everything looked expensive and powerful. Nick was waiting in his office. Calm. Cold. Confident.
"You came," he said.
"I need to know the rules," Rose replied bravely.
Nick gave her a file.
"Rule one: You will act like my real wife in public.
Rule two: No personal questions about my private life.
Rule three: After one year, we divorce. Clean and simple."
Rose hands trembled. "And my father's loan?"
"It will be cleared today."
Silence filled the room.
She slowly picked up the pen.
This was not love.
This was survival.
She signed the contract.
Nick looked at her seriously.
"Welcome to my world, Mrs. Knight."
But deep inside, something unexpected had already begun. 💔✨
