Contracted to a crippled BillionaireChapter 1
Elizabeth
Today, which was supposed to be the happiest of my life, turned out to be the most embarrassing day. When I reached my wedding venue, thinking the guest would be on the seat, ready to watch me walk down the aisle, their eyes glinting with admiration. But, when I arrived, Chaos greeted me. The event coordinator notified me no one booked the venue in my name for today.
Panic gripping every cell of my body, I tried calling Michael, my fiancé of four years, but his phone was off. I tried reaching Lilian, my best friend and wedding planner, hoping for an explanation, but her phone was off too.
I checked the hotel he had booked—he wasn’t there. And it didn’t take long for me to know that Michael and Lilian had duped me and run with my money.
My grip on the glass cup tightened as every memory I had tried to drown in alcohol filled my mind. Gulping down the last drops of the alcohol, I lurched to my feet. My thoughts began to blur, and everything seemed to float as the alcohol breathed its life into my veins.
