My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

Tatiana lifted the blanket for a peek, and her pupils shrank. Something was bound to go wrong with how much she had drunk. She closed her eyes, recalling what happened. She had seduced Nash, and quite boldly too. "Ah! I can't face anyone now!" Tatiana pulled the blanket over her head, feeling utterly embarrassed.

How wonderful it would be to stay with him forever. Sadly, like those wealthy heiresses, she too was just a tool for an arranged marriage by her family. When she was five, her great-grandfather had already set up a marriage

While Nash looked to be focused on the grill, he was looking at Tatiana from the corners of his eyes. Seeing her tears, he could not help but sigh internally. She probably regretted what happened.
