Second Marriage to Mr. Vale

About this story

Synopsis

Five years of loyalty, and dreams of a happy family were destroyed in one afternoon. Selena was ready to hand over her company to her husband, Alex, only to catch him cheating on her in their own home with the woman he called his "adopted sister." Instead of crying or begging, Selena immediately replaced the company transfer papers with divorce papers. She wanted nothing from Alex except the money and sacrifices she had wasted on him and his family. Love no longer mattered to her. Her only goal was to push her company into the city's top ten businesses before the year ended. But growing the company would take money, and the only person who could help was Adrian, the city's most powerful businessman. His condition was simple but shocking. A marriage. Selena agreed, believing it would be nothing more than business. She promised herself she would never trust another man again. But Adrian was completely different from her ex-husband. He was caring, protective, intelligent, and unexpectedly gentle with her. Slowly, Selena began to depend on him. And when she learns another painful truth, Alex's so-called adopted sister was actually her stepsister, Mara, who had secretly planned revenge against her for years. Hurt by the betrayal, Selena throws herself into Adrian's arms. But soon, Selena starts noticing something strange. Everyone who had ever hurt her ended up disappearing. Alex, his manipulative mother, Mara, and even a corrupt director who once harassed her. Selena becomes terrified when she realizes Adrian knows secrets about her life she never told anyone. Their first meeting was not accidental, and the marriage was never just business. Adrian has been watching her far longer than she realized, and his obsession may be far more dangerous than love. As another mysterious woman enters the picture to destroy Selena's life, Selena is trapped between fear and desire, forced to wonder whether Adrian is her protector... or the biggest danger of all.
