THE EXTRAORDINARY BRIDE OF THE WYNDHAM FAMILY

When news breaks of Isla Ainsworth caught in a scandalous one-night stand with the dangerously handsome billionaire, Gabriel Wyndham, it quickly becomes headline news. To protect both Isla’s reputation and the Wyndham family name, Gabriel’s powerful grandfather forces them into an unexpected marriage.

But there is one problem. Gabriel is in love with another woman, Delphine Winthrope, his childhood sweetheart. He agrees to marry Isla only to silence the scandal and restore his public image. His relationship with Delphine remains unchanged.

Now, Isla is trapped in a loveless marriage and judged by a family that sees her as nothing more than a stain on their legacy, Isla struggles to survive. She tried to make her marriage work. But slowly, she begins to adjust, choosing to focus on her career rather than a love she believes will never be hers.

She loves Gabriel with all her heart, but he never returns that love. He gives her everything. His name, his wealth, and his protection, but never his heart. To him, she is only a friend.

She finally set to divorce him. But he will not divorce her. Never.

Yet when hidden truths come to light, Gabriel begins to see Isla differently. For the first time, he develops real feelings for his wife and ends his long relationship with Delphine, the woman everyone thought he would marry.

But just as love begins to grow between Isla and Gabriel, enemies rise, and danger closes in around them…

In a web of family feuds, betrayal, and buried truths, Isla might be the only key to making things right in the family or tearing them apart forever.

Isla stood in her bedroom, her phone pressed tightly against her ear.

“Gabriel, please, pick up your phone.” Her fingers twirled the hem of her nightwear, waiting for her husband to pick up his phone. But he wasn't picking up.

She began pacing across the wide, beautifully furnished room. She wasn’t expecting a miracle. She only wanted one thing—that her husband would be there tomorrow for her parents’ wedding anniversary.

“Beep——Please leave a message after the prompt tone.”

Unsurprisingly, Gabriel didn't answer her calls. Isla looked at the call record on the screen and smiled bitterly. Gabriel was a billionaire, always busy with work, and during their years of marriage, Isla spent less time with him than even his secretary.

But tomorrow was Isla's parent's anniversary and her parents had called and said that Gabriel "must" be there.

Isla frowned tightly. If Gabriel didn't show up tomorrow afternoon, she planned to attend her parents' anniversary by herself.

Her sisters would come with their husbands. It would be nice if Gabriel can also be by her side, even if it was only for that night. That was how their marriage had been for two years. It has always been marriage only on paper.

They had never even shared a room.

Gabriel hadn’t married her out of love.
