Contract Marriage: Fake Dating My Showbiz Wife
**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..”
Welcome to my world
Mingwa walked further into the garden, feeling her cheeks warm slightly. "Maybe a bit of both," she admitted, sitting across from him at the table.
He closed the book and set it aside, his eyes still locked on hers. "Well, it's not every day that I get to relax. You just happened to catch me in one of those rare moments."
Mingwa took a moment to settle into her seat, letting the calming atmosphere of the garden envelop her. The soft sunlight, the subtle breeze, and the quiet presence of Moon Taewoo—it all felt oddly peaceful. But she couldn't ignore the question burning at the back of her mind.
After a brief pause, she spoke, her voice tentative. "So… what did you want to talk about? You wouldn't have called me here just for tea."
Taewoo's eyes gleamed with amusement as he leaned back in his chair, crossing one leg over the other. "I didn't call you here to talk Mingwa."
