Under His Terms
"He wanted a business arrangement. She just wanted to save her family. But in the fine print of their marriage, love was the one clause they forgot to exclude."
Yuan Villa Monte is the definition of cold perfection. A prominent CEO with a heart made of ice and a life governed by silence and strict schedules, he has no room for chaos-until he meets Joy.
Joy is his polar opposite: loud, bubbly, and unapologetically chaotic. But behind her bright smiles is a desperate need to save her brother's life. When she finds herself in debt to the most powerful man in the city, Yuan offers a deal she can't refuse. He doesn't need an employee; he needs a wife.
It was supposed to be a simple transaction-a professional contract to satisfy his family's demands. But as Joy's chatter begins to fill his silent halls, the ever-serious CEO finds his walls crumbling.
In a world of cold numbers and business deals, Yuan is about to learn that the most beautiful things in life are the ones you can't calculate-and that sometimes, the best way to find yourself is to get lost in someone else's noise.
