The Billionaire secret

*"MY BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET" - *Chapter 1: The Job I Didn't Want* The rent was due in 3 days. My younger brother’s school fees were overdue. And my phone kept ringing with "Unknown Number" — the loan app people. I needed money. Fast. That’s why I was standing outside Cole Towers in a borrowed blazer and heels that were killing my feet. "Personal Assistant to CEO. 600k per month." I applied at 2am. I never thought they’d call. The receptionist smiled. "Miss Ada? Mr. Cole will see you now. 40th floor." My heart stopped. Cole. Damian Cole. The same Damian Cole who told me 3 years ago: _"Girls like you don’t belong in my world."_ The same man who broke me and left town the next week. The elevator doors opened. And there he was. Tall. Suit. Cold eyes that used to look at me like I was everything. He looked up from his laptop. His eye meet mine. For one second, nothing. Then: "Miss Adeola. Sit down. You’re hired. But we have a problem." *End of Chapter 1* --- *Chapter 2: The Condition* "Problem?" I asked, voice shaking. Damian leaned back in his chair. 600k per month. I couldn’t walk out. "You start today," he said. "But there’s a condition." He slid a contract across the table. I read it. Twice. My hands started shaking. "Marry me," he said flatly. "For 6 months. My grandfather is dying. He wants to see me settled. You’ll be my wife on paper. 10 million naira at the end." 10 million. Enough for mom’s surgery. Enough for everything. But marry the man who broke me? "I need an answer by 6pm," he said. "Or the job goes to someone else." --- *"MY BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET"* *Chapter 3: I Said Yes* 6pm came too fast. 10 million naira. Mom’s surgery. Brother’s school. And me, standing in Damian Cole’s office with a pen in my hand. "This is crazy," I whispered. "You hate me." Damian didn’t look up from his laptop. "I don’t hate you, Ada. I just... made a mistake 3 years ago." My chest hurt. 3 years ago he called me a distraction. Now he wanted to marry me? "6 months," he said. "No feelings. No complications. We go to events together. You wear the ring. You play the part. At the end, we sign divorce papers and you get your money." Simple. Cold. Business. I thought of mom in the hospital bed. The debt. The shame. I signed. "Good," he said. Finally looked at me. "Wedding is on Saturday. Private. Just family." Saturday?! That’s 3 days! "One more thing," he added as I walked out. "Don’t fall in love with me, Ada. I’m not the same boy you knew." Too late, I thought. Because the moment he said my name, my heart remembered. --- *End of Chapter 3* _Next: The wedding, and the secret Damian is hiding..._ --- *You’re ready to upload sis!* *What to do now:* 1. *Post Chapters 1-3 on Dreame + g*******l* tonight 2. *Title + Cover*: Use "My Billionaire's Secret" + picture of a suit man + stressed girl 3. *Description*: "She signed a contract to marry her ex. 10 million naira. 6 months.

The wedding wasn’t real. Just Damian, me, a pastor, and his sick grandfather in a wheelchair. "Do you take this woman?" "I do," Damian said. No emotion. "Do you take this man?" My voice shook. "I do." The ring was cold. Platinum. Too big. It felt like chains. Afterward, Grandpa Cole held my hands. "Thank you for making my grandson happy, dear." If only he knew. That night, Damian dropped me at a small flat in Lekki. "Your new address," he said. "For appearances. We’ll attend 2 events per week together." He handed me a card. "This is for expenses. Don’t spend more than 200k monthly." 200k. More than I’d ever seen. As he drove off, my phone buzzed. Unknown number: _"You shouldn’t have come back, Ada. Damian belongs to me. Stay away or you’ll regret it."_ My hands shook.

That text kept flashing in my head: _"You shouldn’t have come back, Ada. Damian belongs to me."_ Who was it? 3 years ago Damian left me without a word. Now I’m his fake wife and his ex wants me gone? The next morning a black SUV was waiting outside my flat. Driver: "Mrs. Cole, Mr. Cole sent me. Gala tonight. 8pm." Gala. Of course. Appearances. I picked the only decent dress I owned. Navy blue. Simple. When I got to the hotel, Damian was already there. Black tux. Cold face. But when he saw me, something flickered in his eyes. "You came," he said. "You paid me to," I replied. He offered his arm. Cameras flashed. "Smile, Ada. We’re in love." We played our parts. Drinks. Photos. Small talk. Then I felt it. Someone staring. Victoria. Tall, red dress, diamonds dripping. Damian’s ex from the news. She walked straight to us and hugged him. Too long. "Damian, darling. I heard about Grandpa. So sorry." Then she turned to me. Smile sharp as glass. "And you must be... the new wife. Congratulations." Damian’s jaw tightened. "Victoria." "Relax," she purred. "I’m just being friendly." She leaned in to me and whispered: "He didn’t tell you about us, did he? About the baby?" My blood froze. *End of Chapter 5* --- *Chapter 6: The Contract Breaks* The car ride home was silent. "Was it true?" I asked finally. "The baby?" Damian stared out the window. "No." "Then why didn’t you tell me about Victoria?" "Because it’s none of your business. Remember the contract? No questions." I laughed bitterly. "Right. I’m just the 200k wife." He slammed the brakes. We were outside my flat. "Don’t do that," he said quietly. "Don’t make this harder." "Harder for who? You or me?" For a second his mask dropped. He looked tired. Guilty. "Ada, I didn’t know it would be you. When Grandpa got sick, I needed a wife fast. Your name was on the list." My name. On a list. I got out and ran inside before I could cry. At 3am my phone buzzed again. Same unknown number: _"Meet me at Oceanview Cafe. 10am. Or I’ll tell Grandpa the truth about your marriage."_ I stared at the message. Damian’s secret. My secret. And now someone else knew. I had 6 hours to decide: Tell Damian... or go alone. *End of Chapter 6* --- *"MY BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET" - Chapter 7: Oceanview Cafe* 10am. Oceanview Cafe. I almost didn’t come. But the threat about Grandpa... I couldn’t risk it. She was already waiting. Victoria. Red sunglasses. Perfect. "Sit," she said, sipping coffee. "You look nervous, Ada." "What do you want?" She slid an envelope across the table. "Damian and I were together for 2 years. Engaged. Then he left me. No explanation." She tapped the envelope. "Inside are photos. Us. The trip to Dubai. The ring he gave me." My stomach turned. "Why are you showing me this?" "Because he’s using you," she whispered. "Just like he used me. In 6 months he’ll throw you away too. Unless..." "Unless what?" "Unless you help me get him back. Pretend the marriage is failing. Make him jealous. Then walk away with 1 million naira. My gift." My hands shook. 1 million. But the ring on my finger felt heavier. "I’m not for sale," I said and stood up. As I left, she called out: "You’ll regret this, Ada. He doesn’t love you." --- *Chapter 8: The Hospital* Grandpa Cole collapsed that night. We rushed to St. Nicholas Hospital. Damian didn’t let go of my hand once. For the first time, the billionaire looked scared. "He’s stable," the doctor said hours later. "But he needs to stay calm. Happy." In Grandpa’s room, the old man grabbed both our hands. "Are you two... happy?" he asked weakly. Damian looked at me. Then he did something I didn’t expect. He pulled me close and kissed my forehead. "Very happy, Grandpa." My heart stopped. It was for show. It had to be for show. But his arms around me felt real. When we got home at 2am, he walked me to my door. "Thank you... for today," he said quietly. "Don’t thank me. It’s in the contract." I closed the door. Then I heard him whisper on the other side: "I know." My phone buzzed. Unknown number: _"Nice act. But I saw the kiss. It wasn’t acting, was it?"_ Someone is watching us. *End of Chapter 8* *"MY BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET" - Chapter 9: The Truth* The watcher was in my flat. I found the envelope on my bed. More photos. Me and Damian at the hospital. Me at Oceanview. And a note: _"Last chance. Take the money and leave. Or I ruin both of you."_ I called Damian immediately. He was there in 10 minutes. Face like thunder. "Someone’s been following us," I said, showing him everything. He cursed. "Victoria." "You’re sure?" "Who else? She’s obsessed." He pulled me into a hug before I could think. "I’m sorry, Ada. I dragged you into this." For the first time, he didn’t sound like a billionaire CEO. He sounded human. "I should leave," I whispered. "The contract is almost over anyway." He let go. His jaw tightened. "Is that what you want?" I didn’t answer. Because I didn’t know. --- *Chapter 10: The Final Chapter - My Choice* Grandpa Cole’s 80th birthday. The whole city was there. Damian and I played our parts one last time. Dancing. Smiling. But tonight felt different. Final. After his speech, Grandpa pulled me aside. "My dear, is he good to you?" I almost cried. "Yes, sir." "Good. Because I see how he looks at you. Not like a contract." My heart broke. Later that night, Damian drove me home. The 6 months were up in 3 days. "You can keep the flat," he said. "And the card. For your mom." "Thank you," I said. Silence. Then: "Ada, the contract is over soon. But I... I don’t want it to be." I turned to him. "What are you saying, Damian?" "I’m saying I was wrong 3 years ago. I was scared. And I’m terrified of being wrong again." He reached for my hand. No cameras. No contract. "Stay. For real this time. Not for money. For me." My phone buzzed. Victoria. _"You have 24 hours before I send everything to the press."_ I looked at Damian. At the man who broke me. And the man who was putting me back together. I deleted the text. Then I leaned in and kissed him. Not for the contract. Not for Grandpa. For me. -- *THE END* ❤️
