Bound to the Billionaire CEOUpdated at Oct 25, 2026, 01:21
A 90-day fake engagement. A ruthless billionaire. And a secret that could tear them apart.
When junior financial analyst Clara Lin uncovers a multi-million-dollar discrepancy in Vance Enterprises, she expects a promotion—not a proposal.
Julian Vance is cold, calculating, and the most feared CEO in the city. To secure a high-stakes corporate merger and silence his rival board members, he needs a pristine, devoted fiancée. In exchange for ninety days of pretending to be madly in love, Julian promises to erase Clara’s family debt and save her mother’s life.
The rules of Clause 2 are simple:
1. Wear the diamond ring.
2. Perfect the public affection.
3. Never, under any circumstances, fall in love.
But as fake lingering touches on red carpets turn into late-night glances in his luxury penthouse, the line between performance and desire begins to blur. Just as Julian is ready to burn the contract and claim Clara for real, a devastating discovery surfaces—a hidden document bearing Julian's signature that threatens to destroy her family’s legacy.
Was she his true love, or just his most calculated acquisition?
