The Daring Billionaire’s Wife

Chapter 1

Vanessa POV

hey already ten minutes past † pm and Tin still all alone in

arious suite where I’m supposed to meet Dominic Richards,

my future husband. Apart from all the facts I’ve read about him in news articles, he’s still a stranger to me.

We’ve only spoken twice and both times, in the presence of our parents. The first time was during our introductions at a corporate event and the second time was at my father’s birthday party organized by Mr Richards, Dominic’s father,

Other than that, we didn’t speak at all. I did try to talk to him thay, but he seemed to avoid me and until this day, I wonder why

This is the first time we’ve having a one on one conversation and he’s the one who texted me so we could meet up here.

Despite urging me to be early, he’s quite lahe and I’m starting to wonder if he’ll actually show up.

As I sit and wait, I can’t stop looking around at all the luxury he and his family live in. Even this grand hotel belongs to his Lamily. He’s a business tycoon and billionaire.

No matter hose I look at it, I’m only doing this for my father because this is about to work in his favor,

While I think about all the good things for my family that will come from this marriage, the door finally creaks open and Dominic walks in. He slows down for a moment as he looks dos at his phone while texting, then puts it in the pocket of his pants. He’s in a black tailored suit.

He then continues to approach the round table without even looking at me, taking up so much space by swinging his armis arrogantly

Despite the arroganer from his body language, I still can’t stop staring at him because he’s so handsome. We might not know each other personally, but I can’t deny how attractive he is.

When he gets to the round table, he casually pulls out a chair on the other side and sits down as he runs his hand through his silky hair.

I expect him to speak first but when he takes too long, I feel awkward so I say something instead.

“Good evening I give him a smile, trying my best to make secin genuine.

“Took you long enough he replies arrogantly, his facial expression matching his attitude.

*Excuse me?” I furrow my eyebrows, not expecting him to be so up front with his arrogance.

He leans back in his seat, tilts his head and says. “You should’ve greeted me the moment I walked in.”

Is he being serious right now? How condescending of him to treat me this way.
