**Fake dating?…what could possibly go wrong** Kim Mingwa is a struggling D-list artist whose career is hanging by a thread. Desperate to keep her place in the spotlight, she accidentally finds herself entangled with the most notorious playboy in the industry—the CEO of the number one entertainment company in the country. Known for his bad reputation and inflated ego, the CEO is the last person she wants to be associated with, but when a scandal between them explodes in the media, they’re forced to fake a relationship to salvage both their careers. --- Kim Mingwa stared in horror at the headline: *Scandal Erupts Between D-List Actress and Industry’s Bad Boy CEO!* “This isn’t happening,” she whispered, her voice shaking. Beside her, the CEO only smirked, completely unfazed. “Welcome to showbiz, Miss Kim.” Mingwa glared at him. “You think this is funny? My career is on the line!” “It’s simple,” he replied, his tone cold. “Play along, or get left behind.” She clenched her fists, knowing she was trapped. “Fine,” she muttered. “But don’t think you can easily take advantage of me.” His smirk widened. “I wouldn’t dream of it..”
I'm here for you
The jet took off smoothly, the hum of the engines filling the cabin as they ascended into the clouds. Mingwa sat quietly, her eyes scanning the horizon through the small window. The weight of everything that had happened over the past week hung in the back of her mind, but for now, she allowed herself to focus on the present.
Taewoo sat across from her, his usual commanding presence still palpable. He didn't speak much after they boarded, leaving her to her thoughts. Despite the calm exterior, Mingwa couldn't shake the feeling that something was still unsettled between them. Even with his so-called "compromise," it didn't feel like she had truly broken free of his grasp.
Minutes passed, the silence between them lingering. Finally, Taewoo leaned back in his seat, breaking the quiet. "You'll be back on set tomorrow," he said, his voice casual but laced with authority. "I made sure everything's in place. The director has no choice but to cooperate."
