Introduction

She was a plain girl from the countryside, who had married New York's top aristocrat, Harrington, in place of her sister. During the day, she worked diligently as a humble maid. But at night, she removed her scars, revealing an unparalleled beauty, becoming the president's substitute pampered wife. When her substitute identity was discovered, New York's socialites eagerly anticipated her humiliation. However, they witnessed her unlocking a exciting life: blending fragrances, concocting medicine, and captivating all. The certain president even transformed into her devoted slave, cherishing her above all:"She is my lover, stay away from her!"

Chapter 1

**"Ava Bennett, tonight you must go in and accompany Harrington. Otherwise, you'll never see Mrs Foster again!" **

**Outside the presidential suite of The Williamsburg Hotel, Ava froze. **

**Kylie and Ava were sisters . They looked exactly alike except for a scar on Ava's face, while Kylie was New York's number one beauty. Dominic was Kylie Bennett's Honey; they got married two years ago. **

However, Dominic was an illegitimate child who had been abroad for the past two years and just returned to the country today.

Kylie despised that Dominic was an illegitimate child, so she kidnapped Ava's nanny Mrs Foster and forced Ava to impersonate her to accompany Dominic.

Thinking about Mrs Foster being taken away, Ava could only compromise and say "Okay."

Ava walked into the presidential suite where it was dimly lit inside. A man lay on the bed with a tall and sturdy figure as well as unparalleled handsome features. Ava bit her lip before feeling her way up onto him and began undoing his belt.

As her soft white fingers touched his narrow waistline, suddenly a hand with distinct knuckles reached out from nowhere grabbing hold of her delicate wrist tightly before pulling it hard causing her to fall directly onto him.

She smelled alcohol emanating from him; his hot breath sprayed against her face along with a voice asking coldly,"Who are you?"

His voice sounded deep yet icy-cold at the same time.

Ava lifted up her head only to bump straight into his eyes which he had already opened without warning - those deep narrow eyes stared back at hers fiercely like thunderbolts striking down upon them both simultaneously.

Her heart skipped a beat when she hesitated briefly before using red lips to cover his mouth saying,"Shh... don't ask me anything because I'm your wife~"

The next morning, The Williamsburg Hotel was completely sealed off with a group of black-clad bodyguards standing outside the presidential suite.

Dominic woke up and now lazily leaned against the headboard. His cold white slender fingers rested on his bent knee while he blinked his scarlet decadent eyes exuding an aura of terrifying hostility.

He had a social engagement last night where he got drunk and was sent back to his room by his secretary. When he opened his eyes in a daze, there was already a girl sitting on him. After it ended, she ran away without saying anything.

Very well then, this woman who dared to be so bold must have known that if caught by him, she would end up being dismembered into countless pieces.

The large bed was in complete disarray with even some bloodstains left behind on the snow-white sheets.

"President," at this moment, the secretary rushed in hastily and said,"We found out who that woman from last night is!"

**"Who?" **

"It's your wife."

"Wife?" Dominic didn't remember that he had already gotten married but soon recalled what happened two years ago when Mrs Harrington secretly arranged for him to marry Kylie Bennett from The Bennett family due to their marriage agreement between both families. At that time, only one car picked her up and brought her straight into his villa; plus it was also kept hidden so not many people knew about it.

**His deep narrow eyes suddenly narrowed as if realizing something - so upon returning home after two years of hidden marriage life together with Kylie as **Honey and wife...he gets slept with by her?

Dominic lifted thin lips before speaking indifferently,"Let's go back to the villa."

**Ava returned home where she looked at Kylie saying,"I've completed the task you assigned me." **

    CEO-AS Interesting story. Being a substitute for the bride it is terible, because the one that supoused to love you and teats you well hates you. Hope she can change the things in her favour.

    CEO-AS Generally not my favorite type of story.The intro is a little bit confusing and the story line is hard to digest! But if it is really well thought and well written, it could be an interesting story and is worth reading.
