Meet Angelou, a smart and independent businesswoman who built a name for herself after years of hard work and determination. She tirelessly cares for her foster parents as a simple gratitude for providing everything for her since adoption. But when her foster father mismanages the family business, he seeks help and arranges a partnership with multi-billionaire Ferdinand Levine. A partnership that includes Angelou marrying his only heir, Gabriel. Angelou and Gabriel got tangled with the arranged marriage, both having their own respective objections and goals. Angelou being at the top of her career and loving her singlehood, while Gabriel wanting to get his revenge on her and at the same time take full control of his father’s conglomerate. As their world collides, blossoming love and danger intertwine in this gripping billionaire romance. “I hate to burst your bubble, Miss, but this marriage is nothing more than just a deal. You can dream all you want, I will not stop you from doing so, but these are all temporary. So enjoy the moment while it lasts.” “As long as this will keep my family’s name from destruction, then I am more than willing to spend temporary hell with you until our fake marriage is over. I am doing all of this for my parent’s sake. So come hell or high waters, even if I need to be in the abyss just to save them, then so be it.” “Don’t ever fall in love with me, Miss. Don’t you dare or you’ll be sorry.”
For one whole day, and for the very first time, I hadn't had a glimpse of him nor his shadow lurking around anywhere. I should be at peace, right? I should be happy that finally he had come to his senses and granted my request of letting me be on my own and not seeing him. I was expecting myself to feel that ease and that little peace of mind inside of me, but as hours passed, I couldn't let myself feel that way.
I was fully aware that I was the one who requested him to stay away from me, I even told him that I didn't want to see his face anymore and I would rather be alone than to be with him. But why am I this agitated and uneasy now? Why does every time the front door opens, I was wishing that it was him who would enter?
