The Ceo's Unwanted Wife
The first encounter
Your cute author 😜
Hello it's your author
Your cute author 😜
This is my first book, I hope you enjoy it ☺️🥰
Board room....
The board room of XYZ company was ice cold.
Silence hung in the air thick and heavy.
12 executives,1 ceo
Floor-to-ceiling windows.
City lights below.
But no one was looking.
All eyes were on him.
Executive 1
Mr. Noah,
Marry within 30 days or we pull out our investment.
The words hit like a slap.
Noah Sterling didn't flinch,
28. Billionaire.
And right now, trapped.
Noah
You are threatening me?
In my own company?
After I built this from scratch?
Executive 2
It is not a threat.
It's business
The investors want stability.
A scandal-free CEO.
A wife means stability
Executive 3
Your father had a wife.
Your grandfather had a wife.
30 days, Noah. Or we walk away.
4000 jobs.
His mother's legacy.
Everything he worked for.
Gone in 30 days.
Executive 1
Then XYZ collapses.
By next quarter
His jaw tightened
He was out of options
And he hated it
The doors opened.
Click.
Heads turned.
Rebecca
I'm sorry.
Am I interrupting?
Simple white dress.
No makeup.
Dark circles under her tired eyes.
But her back was straight.
She wasn't begging.
Noah
Who are you?
This is a closed meeting.
Rebecca
Rebecca Cole.
Your assistant sent the email.
About ... the arrangement.
Murmurs.
The executives looked at each other.
Rebecca
I need 3 million.
For my mother's surgery.
Stage 3 cancer.
Her voice didn't shake.
But her hands did.
She hid them behind her back .
Rebecca
And you ...
You need a wife.
To save your company.
Silence again.
Even the AC stopped sounding loud.
Noah
You have been investigated?
Rebecca
Yes.
No debt. No scandal.
No boyfriend.
I'm clean.
Rebecca
After 1 year, we divorce.
You keep your company.
I get the money.
Clean break.
Noah stared at her.
Looking for a trick.
For pity. For greed.
He found none.
Just exhaustion
Noah
Joel, bring the papers
Joel(Noah's assistant)
Here sir
Noah
Then let's not waste time.
Legal is outside.
Sign the papers
Rebecca
There are conditions.
Rebecca
No dating others.
Public appearance when needed.
And ... no love.
This is business. Nothing more.
The word "love" hung in the air.
Noah almost laughed.
Love was the last thing on his mind.
She stepped forward.
Picked up the pen.
Rebecca Cole.
The ink looked permanent.
Two signatures.
One contract.
12 witness.
Executive 3
Congratulations to the new couple.
No one clapped.
Noah walked to the window.
Rebecca stood still.
Noah
You can go.
We will talk details tomorrow.
She turned to leave.
But paused at the door.
Rebecca
Thank you, Mr. Sterling.
For saving My mother.
The door closed.
And Noah exhaled for the first time all day.
But what neither of them knew ...
Was that this business was about to ruin them both.
And maybe ...
Save them too.

Rebecca's chest tightened.

One rule, Mrs. Sterling.

Rebecca
I won't.
Love is scam.
Something flashed in his eyes.
Then it was gone.
Noah
Driver is taking you to the hospital.
Payment is already made.
Noah
Don't
We are partners.
Nothing more.
She left.
Noah stared at her name.
Rebecca Cole.
What he did not know...
4 years ago, she sat behind him in class.
He used to say
"She will run the world"

Saturday.
Sterling Estate.
White flowers. Cameras. Lies
Rebecca Cole stood alone.
Simple white dress.
No bridesmaids. No family.
Rebecca
This isn’t real.
It’s just business.
The doors opened.
Noah Sterling walked in.
Black tux. No smile.
Rebecca
I was here 20 minutes ago.
You were.
Noah
Let’s get this over with.
Reporters flashed cameras.
“CEO Noah Sterling weds Rebecca Cole.”
Headline ready.
Officiant

And you?
No ring. No kiss.
Just signatures. Again.

The investors are pleased.
He didn’t look at her.
Not once.
Rebecca
Can I go see my mom now?
Noah
After photos.
We need to look in love♥️.
Rebecca
We agreed. No touching.
Noah
Just for the cameras.
2 seconds.
His hand touched her waist.
Cold. Firm.
Her breath caught.
Photos done.
Rebecca walked away.
Hospital room.
Mom sleeping. Peaceful.
The 3 million worked.
Phone buzzed.
Unknown number.
💬Text from Noah
Move into Sterling Tower tonight.
Separate rooms. Clause 8.
Don’t be late.
Rebecca
💬Yes, Mr. Sterling.
She looked at the ring
on her finger.
Fake. Cold. Heavy.
What neither of them knew...
Tonight, they’d be living
under the same roof.
And walls this thin
don’t keep secrets for long.
