Julie Cole was told he was a good soul, an obedient son, and a kind human. Though she knew marrying to get out of trouble is not something her dad would have approved but in the end, it was her father's family she was going to secure. Letting out a cold sigh she looked at the boy who lived in front of her apartment getting into his Toyota Carolla. He was never going to love her. He had made it clear five years ago when Julie confessed her feelings to him on her 18th birthday. Looking at the stone adorning her finger she told herself "I am someone's now". And she would be lying if she says Matteo isn't on her mind nowadays...the man who owned a trading company and was renowned for his honesty. The man she was going to marry in front of God and this whole world. She was always a hard believer and knew that God always chose the best for her. Matteo De Lucca is a well-known name in the whole of Europe, Asia, and Central America. For the last seven years, he was in the world's top 20 richest men. He has an image to keep and known for his donations and discipline. Little does anyone know he is made to function as indifferent, insensitive, narcissist, and sexist...only the group of people closest to him know that he has insatiable greed for money, power, and sex. Strictly in the same order. Whatever donations he ever made were his subsidiary units somehow. There is nothing more important to him than his money. And when the richest heiress in his circle who doesn't have any problem with his ways around life proposed a marriage he didn't blink to accept. But one named changed everything. Julie Cole...his father's personal maid in the states. ***** The story has a non cliché character. Matteo is like any other corporate villian. You are going to hate this character like never before. He only thinks about himself and what will interest you more is the fact that despite being super rich he cares a lot about money and connections.

How many times should I convince you?" Shehzad spoke blushing, then suddenly flew up from the chair and asks with wide eyes, "Wait! Why do you care if I am engaged to her?" "Forget it. So then it means Amyrah is already engaged to someone." "Then she'll get married to him too?" Shehzad looks at Zameer worriedly. "Yeah... Shehzu, what if this marriage dosen't work?" Zameer asks grinning slightly. Then Shehzad says quietly, "Then I can marry her, right?" "What!!!?" ××× "Stop it dude!" Humaira deadpanned. "I don't know how," He murmured. "What did you say!!?" We screamed. "Why did you drive then!!?" I yelled hitting him on the head with my backpack which was a bad idea because he looked back, rubbing his head. At that moment, the four of us screached together. "Look front!!!"
