FORCED TO MARRY MY SISTER'S BILLIONAIRE FIANCE
On her wedding night, Gabrielle Barone discovers that being forced into marriage is only the beginning of her nightmare.
Sacrificed by her family to save their failing business, she’s forced to marry a billionaire who was meant for her younger sister. By morning, her new husband believes she tricked her way into his life for money and status, and no one is willing to hear the truth.
Trapped in a loveless marriage, humiliated by both families, Gabrielle endures years of heartbreak until she walks away with nothing. But losing everything becomes the start of something greater.
Years later, she returns as a powerful CEO with two children and no longer the quiet woman they once looked down on. This time, she holds the future in her hands and secrets that could change everything.
The man who once rejected her wants answers. The family who discarded her wants forgiveness. And the past she fought to escape is waiting once again.
When the buried lies finally come to light, will the man who never trusted her earn a second chance, or is some betrayal too painful to forgive?

Chapter: CHAPTER NINEDamiano's eyes slowly opened as he blinked against the morning light.He turned his head toward me, and my whole body went stiff. His gaze was hazy at first, still clouded with sleep and whatever alcohol he had drunk the night before.Then he saw me. I was still in my half-undone dress, rose petals stuck to my skin.His brow furrowed. "Gabrielle?"I flinched when I heard my name. It sounded strange coming from his lips.Damiano sat up slowly as the sheets fell around his waist. He rubbed his face and winced, probably from a pounding headache. When he looked at me again, he looked confused."What happened?" he asked. "Why are you dressed like that?"I opened my mouth, but no words came out. My throat felt like sandpaper. The tears I thought I had already cried started forming behind my eyes again.Damiano looked at me. His eyes moved from my open zipper to my wrinkled dress, then to the way I was trying to hide on the bed. His expression changed from confusion to something darker."Gab

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHT1 stood frozen as he held me in the middle of the rose petals. His arms wrapped around me like I was precious, but I knew better… I was just a body that felt familiar in the dark."Elena," he whispered again, his voice soft, almost tender.My heart pounded; I should have pushed him away, screamed, and told him the truth. But my body wouldn't move, and my voice wouldn't work. I stood in his arms, letting him hold me while he called me by my sister's name.His hands moved down my back, finding the zipper of my dress."Finally," he breathed. "Finally, you are mine."My skin crawled on every touch. But I could not speak; the words stuck in my throat like thorns.He pulled the zipper down slowly. The sound was loud in the quiet room. My dress loosened around my shoulders. "Damiano," I tried. My voice was barely a whisper. "Stop."But he didn't hear me; his mind was somewhere else.He pushed me backward, and my legs hit the edge of the bed, and I fell onto the mattress. Rose petals were sc

Chapter: chapter sevenThe minister's voice faded as the words sat on my tongue like a cat cut my tongue."Gabrielle," he said again. "Do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?"I do," I whispered.The words tasted like ash as my voice cracked. The guests probably thought I was emotional. But I was choking on the lie.Damiano stood beside me; his eyes scanned the crowd. He had not looked at me once during my vows.The minister turned to him."Damiano, do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?"Damiano blinked for a second; I thought he would not answer. His gaze drifted past me."Damiano," the minister repeated."Yeah," Damiano mumbled. "I do."He still did not look at me. The minister cleared his throat in confusion. "The rings?"Damiano fumbled in his pocket. He pulled out a simple gold band. His hands were clumsy as he reached for my hand. His fingers were warm but his touch was careless. He slid the ring onto my finger without looking and I did the same too.It was so loose t

Chapter: chapter 6The wedding day arrived faster than I expected.I woke up in the same room they had locked me in for days.My eyes were swollen and my throat still hurt from constant screaming.My mother stood in the doorway, arms crossed, watching the maids fasten the tiny pearl buttons up my spine."Don't cry," she said. "You'll ruin the powder."I hadn't realized I was crying as tears came silently. The storm I'd been dreading all week had finally arrived.The maids' hands trembled as she worked, but I didn't look at her reflection in the mirror because I didn't want to see myself."You look beautiful," she whispered.I said nothing.The car ride to the venue was silent. My mother sat across from me, smoothing her dress, and my father stared out the window... nobody spoke.The venue was a garden, filled with white flowers and white ribbons and rows of chairs full of people I didn't know. They smiled at me as I walked past, but they didn't know I was dying inside.I stood at the back of the aisle,

Chapter: CHAPTER FIVEThe voice came again, close.I didn't know it was morning already.The light through the barred window looked pale. My back hurt from sleeping on the cold floor. I did not know how long I had been there; my hand still hurt, and my cheek was wet with tears. I did not remember crying.I stood up and looked around the room; the bars on the window cast shadows on the floor.I pressed my ear to the door and listened. I heard footsteps in the hallway and my mother's voice.She was laughing.While I am here in a room that feels like a tomb.I banged my fist against the door."Let me out!"The footsteps stopped.Then they started again, walking away.I banged harder. "Please!"My vision blurred as hot tears formed behind my eyes.I wiped my face with the back of my hand and hated myself for crying.Crying never changed anything.I heard the lock turn.The door opened and my mother stepped inside. She wore a cream-coloured dress, and her hair was pinned up. She looked like she was going to a p

Chapter: CHAPTER FOURThe words hung in the air as I stopped walking.Don't worry, Gabi.What did that mean?I stood in the hallway, my back against the wall, staring at the closed door, my eyes filled with tears.She said it was done; there was nothing we could do.But then she whispered that.For a moment, I let myself believe she meant something hopeful. That she had changed her mind after all these years,she can finally stand beside me.I almost smiled.Then I heard her say, "I will make sure everything goes perfectly."My blood turned to ice.She did not say it like she was sorry.She said it like she was excited.The little hope I had shattered. My sister wasn't going to help me…she wasn't going to save me.I was left all alone in this.Two weeks had passed since my parents told me I would marry Damiano De Luca, and since then my life stopped being mine.In that time, I had become a ghost.I walked the halls of my own home like I no longer belonged there. I ate meals in silence while my parents discu
