Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 1

Chapter 1 She Came Back Five Years Later 

On a cold night, in a quiet and luxurious hotel where one could have a view of the ocean. 

Cecelia clenched the bed sheet tightly with a black patch over her eyes, feeling nervous and uneasy. 

Suddenly, the bed sagged next to her, and someone leaned over. 

Feeling that he was reaching out to her, Cecelia grabbed him by the wrist in a hurry. 

"Don't look at my face!" 

The man asked in a melodious and husky voice, "Don't you want to know who you're going to lose your virginity to?" 

Cecelia felt a lump in her throat, and tears streamed down her cheeks. She shook her head and said, "You are my benefactor, no matter who you are. Thank you!" 

She couldn't let others know who she was. 

If word got out that the young lady of the Linsey family became so down and out that she had to sell her body for 30 thousand dollars, she would undoubtedly be laughed at. 

Cecelia felt helpless and sad because she was going to spend her most precious night with a stranger. 

But she had no choice. She needed money to save her mother, who was waiting for her in the hospital. 

She wouldn't have to do this if her father weren't that ruthless and her boyfriend hadn't cheated her out of her shares or evicted her. 

A faint, alluring smell hit the man's nostrils. 

The girl was clean and smelled good. 

The man asked again, "Could you give birth to a baby for me if I give you two million dollars?" 

If Cecelia could get two million dollars, her mother would be saved. 

"Yes, I can." 

"Good girl!" The man bent over with a charming smile. 

Eight months later, Cecelia was awakened by a strong smell of smoke. 

When she opened her eyes, she found that the sky was reddened with fire. The long flames crashed through the window and burned the curtains. 

Her house was on fire. 

Realizing that she was in danger, Cecelia struggled to get up and rushed out of the room with her hands on her large belly. 

The fire roared and flared and sent smoke billowing in the living room on the first floor. Cecelia tried hard to advance forward while covering her mouth and nose. 

What was worse, she couldn't escape because all the windows and doors of the villa were sealed. It took her great effort to find the landline, but the wire had been cut. 

A familiar voice came from outside. "When her mother dies, my mother will marry into the Linsey family. Cecelia may not be aware that I'm also her father's biological daughter until she dies." 

"My cousin Ophelia is my father's daughter?" thought Cecelia. 

"Those are all yours. I have all her shares. She has nothing left now." 

"Is that Sean's voice? He cheated me out of my shares and even colluded with Ophelia?" wondered Cecelia. 

"Pour more gasoline to make the fire stronger. Burn her and the bastard in her womb to ashes!" 

"Only when she is dead can we rest assured." 

"They are really Sean and Ophelia. Do they want to kill me?" thought Cecelia. 

The hasty footsteps vanished in the end, leaving only the increasingly raging fire and pungent smoke. 

The fire scorched Cecelia, and a sense of fear overwhelmed her. 

She thought to herself, "No, I can't die. My mother is still waiting for me in the hospital." 

Cecelia broke the window glass and shouted for help, "Help! My house is on fire. Help!" 

A long time later, Cecelia lay on the ground, finding it difficult to breathe. 

At this critical moment, the door of the villa burst open, and an old figure rushed into the fire. "Miss Cece! Miss Cece!" 

"Martin, I'm here." Cecelia, who had fallen into despair, was moved to tears when she heard the butler's voice. 

Martin kicked away the burning furniture and, regardless of the danger, he went to the almost suffocated Cecelia. "Come with me, Miss Cece! Hurry up!" 

With the help of Martin, Cecelia walked towards the door with her hands on her belly. Just when she was about to get out of the villa, a beam fell on her. 

Seeing this, Martin pushed Cecelia out of the villa. As it turned out, the beam fell and pressed down on him. 

When Cecelia turned around after getting to her feet, she found that Martin was on fire under the beam. 

Tears welled up in Cecelia's eyes. "Martin! Martin!" 

"Run, Miss Cece! Hurry up! Go far away, and never come back!" 

"Martin!" 

Cecelia's eyes turned bloodshot. The massive fire engulfed everything in its burning blaze.
