Provoking a Billionaire Tyrant
What it's about
A feisty woman accidentally provokes the most powerful and feared billionaire in the city — and finds herself unable to escape his orbit. Classic push-pull romance with high tension throughout.
Like most billionaire romance series in the short-drama format, Provoking a Billionaire Tyrant is built around the one-minute cliffhanger. Each of the 92 episodes lands on a turn, a reveal, or a confrontation designed to make you tap unlock just one more time. The first 4 episodes are free, and they're paced to hook you before the paywall kicks in.
It lives on ShortMax. The series is complete, so what you see is what you pay for.
