Too Lazy to Divorce the Billionaire

Annotation

A brutal survivalist. A ruthless billionaire. And a marriage contract that was supposed to be a gilded cage... until she decided to move in and redecorate. After surviving two brutal years in a post-apocalyptic wasteland fighting monsters, Laura Lind is finally back in her original body. The catch? Her family has gone bankrupt, and they’ve sold her off to Julian Hayes—the notoriously cold, controlling, and terrifying CEO of Crestview Enterprises. According to the original rumor mill, Laura is supposed to hate her new life. She is supposed to fight the 24/7 surveillance, resent her bodyguards, and desperately plot a divorce, only to end up miserable. But Laura looks at her plush king-sized bed, her unlimited black card, and her yacht, and asks herself: Why on earth would I ever leave? Having fought for her life every single day, a life of doing absolutely nothing while a handsome billionaire pays the bills is her literal paradise. If Julian wants to "monitor" her, fine. He can do the heavy lifting. Besides, nobody knows she is secretly the genius mastermind behind Zephyr Capital, the wealthiest investment firm in the country. When Laura reluctantly agrees to appear on a celebrity couple's reality show, the internet prepares to pity the "miserable, caged wife." Instead, they are treated to the ultimate power dynamic shift: The Audit: Julian calls to check on her three times a day. Laura video-calls him back, forces the terrifying CEO to watch her try on thirty-two designer outfits, and demands a unique, ten-line compliment for each. The Vetting: Julian tries to restrict her contact list. Laura forwards every handsome stranger who tries to flirt with her directly to Julian’s personal line for "husband vetting." But when Laura’s family suddenly recovers their fortune and the "rightful" woman appears, Laura decides her retirement era is over. She packs her bags and sighs, "I understand, Julian. I’ll pack up and leave so you two can be happy." But the ruthless billionaire slams the door shut, locking her in his arms with a dark, obsessive gaze. "Say 'husband' again, Laura. Because you are never leaving this room."
