Chasing Stardust: The Billionaire's Contractual Leading Lady
As Vincent and Alana found themselves amidst the grandeur of the party, a sense of unease settled over Alana, despite her composed exterior.
Vincent's presence caught her off guard, his perfectly tailored suit a stark contrast to her own discomfort. His gaze lingered on her, a flicker of recognition passing over his face before he concealed it behind a facade of indifference.
Vincent: "Alana? What a surprise to see you here."
Alana forced a tight-lipped smile, her unease palpable.
Alana: "Yes, it's... unexpected."
Vincent's eyes betrayed a hint of delight at their reunion, though his demeanor remained stoic, masked by his cold aura.
Vincent: "Indeed. One can never predict these events."
Alana sensed the tension between them, the awkwardness thickening the air. She shifted uncomfortably, struggling to maintain her composure in the face of their shared history.
Vincent's gaze softened imperceptibly, a fleeting moment of warmth amidst the chill of the room.
Vincent: "And who might this little one be?"
Alana's heart skipped a beat as she glanced down at her niece, a silent reminder of the complexities of her past.
Alana, a gifted actress, finds herself thrust into a whirlwind of high society and unexpected twists.
Once entangled in a romance with Vincent, a formidable CEO with wealth and power, Alana had moved on from their past. However, when she's roped into attending a mysterious party aimed at selecting Vincent's future wife, old wounds are reopened.
To complicate matters, Alana arrives at the party with a child in tow—her sister's offspring, orphaned by a tragic accident. As secrets unravel, Alana must navigate her newfound role as guardian while confronting the unresolved emotions between her and Vincent.
