Heartbeat Beyond the Algorithm - Part 1
A Contract Marriage with the Cold AI Billionaire By Marqués de Montemolín
Edited by Marquesado de Montemolín
He built an empire on logic.
She is the one variable he can't control.
Gu Han is the cold, brilliant CEO behind Asia's most powerful artificial intelligence system. Aurora-X predicts market crashes, neutralizes hostile takeovers, and eliminates risk before it appears. In the world of billion-dollar tech empires, emotion is weakness-and Gu Han has never allowed weakness.
Until the algorithm flags an anomaly.
Lin Qian.
A talented but overlooked data engineer whose analytical precision rivals his own. When rumors of a hostile acquisition threaten corporate stability, investors begin to question Gu Han's leadership. The board demands reassurance. The media demands optics.
So he offers her a deal.
A contractual marriage.
One year.
No love.
No emotional entanglement.
Pure strategy.
For Lin Qian, accepting means stepping into the ruthless world of corporate politics, executive power plays, and global media scrutiny. It means pretending to love a man who has built walls higher than his skyscrapers.
But proximity changes everything.
As they navigate boardroom wars, internal betrayal, and international financial pressure, the line between performance and reality begins to blur. The cold billionaire who trusted only algorithms starts questioning his own data.
Because some risks cannot be quantified.
And some emotions refuse to be controlled.
Perfect for readers who love:
Billionaire CEO romance
Contract marriage trope
Workplace romance tension
Slow-burn chemistry
Strong, intelligent heroines in tech
Powerful alpha male leads
Corporate power struggles
International contemporary romance
Forced proximity dynamics
Heartbeat Beyond the Algorithm - Part 1 delivers intense romantic tension, high-stakes corporate drama, and a calculated love story where intellect collides with desire.
In a world ruled by data, the most dangerous variable is the human heart.
And this contract was never meant to stay professional.
