“Did you plan this with Mom, sis?” Bella stood up and slowly walked toward Anastasia. Anastasia’s eyes widened in confusion. “What plan?” “You know I love him, and you know he’s my Prince Charming! Why?!” Bella’s voice grew louder. Anastasia was frozen in place, still bewildered. “Prince Charming?” Anastasia never expected her life to resemble a Cinderella tale, especially the role as the stepsister. When her parents arrange her marriage to Ethan Harrington, the man her step sister Bella has loved since childhood, her peaceful ten-year life in this new family starts to crumble. As she navigates the complexities of love and loyalty, Anastasia is convinced that Ethan’s heart belongs to someone else. With misunderstandings and tangled emotions at play, she must decide whether to follow her heart or fulfil her family's expectations. Will she find her own happiness, or will she be forever cast in the shadows of Bella's unfulfilled fairytale?"

A New Suspect

Daniel winced as he felt his arm go numb from being a pillow for Anastasia's head. The vibration of his phone continued, the caller persistent. Carefully, he pulled his hand from under her, reaching for the phone that lay on the floor, knowing exactly how it had ended up there.

"Yes, Jay?" he answered the call, cracking his neck.

"Sir, the police are asking you to come to the station. There's a new clue." Jayden's voice was upbeat, relieved to finally reach Daniel.

He glanced at Anastasia, hoping she was still sleeping. "I'll be there."

Hanging up the phone, he gazed at Anastasia's face. Smiling, he couldn't hide his happiness. "Damn… how can you be this pretty even in the morning?"
