Escaping Mr. Huo

Escaping Mr. Huo | Billionaire Romance & Fake Death Novel

When our family business hit absolute rock bottom, my father pulled the dirtiest trick in the book: he auctioned off both his daughters to the ultra-wealthy Huo family. My older sister got the eldest nephew, a soft-spoken, picture-perfect gentleman. Me? I got stuck with his uncle: the cold, ruthless powerhouse at the top of the food chain.

It wasn’t long before the nephew’s childhood sweetheart saw her own family’s empire start to crumble.

My sister immediately decided it was time to make a run for it in the dead of night. Too bad for her, I caught her red-handed just as she was sneaking out the door.

Arms crossed, I arched an eyebrow. “Skipping town without me?”

She hesitated. “Are… are you coming?”

“Hell yes,” I said without missing a beat.

Her face turned deadly serious. “How are we doing this?”

I flashed her the sweetest, most innocent smile. “We fake our deaths. The ultimate vanishing act.”

That very night, the internet completely exploded. Breaking news of the two Mrs. Huos’ “sudden deaths” swept across every headline. Word had it that one groom coughed up blood from sheer heartbreak. The other? His hair turned stark white overnight.

As for my sister and me? We were sitting in Prague’s old town square, peacefully feeding the pigeons.

Three years later.

They cornered us in Hawaii. The two Huo men dragged their “trophies” straight back to the penthouse suite.

Pinning me by the waist, the icy billionaire leaned in close. His voice was as soft as a breeze, but the chills running down my spine were lethal.

“Darling…” he purred. “Still thinking about running? Or should I just build you a golden cage instead?”
