Bought By The Ruthless BillionaireUpdated at Jul 11, 2026, 13:00
Maya Chen has spent years helping strangers create perfect weddings while quietly watching her own life fall apart. When her biggest client cancels at the last minute, her struggling wedding business is pushed to the brink of bankruptcy, and her grandmother's home is days away from foreclosure.
Desperate for one final chance, Maya crashes a consultation for billionaire heiress Poppy Sterling's wedding—only to come face-to-face with Leo Sterling, the ruthless CEO of a billion-dollar empire. Cold, arrogant, and fiercely protective of his sister, Leo dismisses Maya as nothing more than an opportunist. But instead of backing down, she stands up to the powerful billionaire in front of everyone.
Their fiery confrontation goes viral overnight.
With millions convinced they're the internet's newest enemies, Leo makes Maya an offer she never expected: pretend to be his girlfriend for three months in exchange for enough money to save her business, clear her debts, and protect her grandmother's home. It's only a contract. No love. No feelings. No complications.
But pretending becomes dangerous when stolen glances turn into late-night conversations, fake kisses begin to feel real, and buried secrets threaten to destroy everything they've built.
As powerful enemies close in and betrayals from the past come to light, Maya must decide whether Leo is just another billionaire using her... or the only man willing to fight for her.
In a game where love was never part of the deal, breaking the contract may cost them everything—including their heart.
