“And guess what? The investors loved the designs so much that they actually asked for the contract even before I finished my presentation—and you kno–hello? Hello? Earth to Addi?”

I looked up at Kei, who had just placed her hand over mine on the table. The ceremony was over, I’d already finished my song, and we were now at the reception. But Jani’s words… I still couldn’t shake them off.

Had I really become like this? Was I starting to want too much? Is that why I never say no when opportunities come—even when I know the money is tempting? Was I becoming an opportunist? Was I still working for my family, or was I now just doing this all for myself?

“Kei,” I called out to her, but I didn’t need to grab her attention. She was already frowning, watching me closely. “Do you think I’m... an opportunist?”

“What

    “WHAT?! Jane’s pr—” I immediately stood up and covered her mouth, pulling her back down to her seat.“I told you not to make a scene, and now you’re shouting?” I whispered, glancing around the restaurant. Some people were still staring at us, while others had already gone back to what they were doing.“Sorry, sorry! I’m just shocked, okay?” she said, sipping her iced tea. “I mean, maybe something just happened. She’s a diligent sister, and more mature than you.”I shot her a look. She grinned. “Sometimes,” she added quickly.I rolled my eyes and took a sip of the coffee I had ordered. I wasn’t hungry, not just today, but for the past few days. Only she ordered food.“So, what’s your plan? Are you going to talk to Janey?”“That’s what Ravi told me, too. I do plan to talk to her. I just... I don’t

    “Keith Sky! How many times do I have to tell you that Family Day means no work? Do you not value this family?!” Mom’s voice echoed through the entire dining room. I slowly put down the phone I had been holding—I’d been reviewing an email my secretary had just sent.“But Mom, this is important. I need to handle this matter so that everything’s settled by tomorrow,” I tried to reason with her.“That can wait for a day, Kei. Now stop browsing and eat with us—focus, please,” she said firmly, then continued slicing her steak.Today’s Sunday, and Mom has always believed that family should come first. Both she and Dad agreed on the rule that Sundays are strictly for family—no work, no excuses. I get their point. They're both CEOs of their own companies, far busier than I am, yet here they are, sitting and having breakfast with us.“I’m sorry,” I said sincerely as I tu

    “What the hell is going on here?”All of us turned at the same time toward the source of that angry voice—and just as I suspected, Ravi was finally home. His brows were furrowed as he looked at the scene in front of him.But I wasn’t in the mood. I wasn’t happy at all with what I’d just heard. He kept forcing things on me, pushing and pushing, yet I could barely even understand what he was saying anymore. Everything started spinning all of a sudden.“She’s bleeding!” Ive, one of our household staff, shouted.“Shit, Addi!” Ravi rushed to my side, along with a few others. He pulled out a handkerchief and pressed it gently against my temple. That’s when I finally felt the sting—there was a bit of blood staining my white shirt.“I’m okay,” I said, and honestly, I wanted to give myself a pat on the back for not stuttering. But the truth? I was d

    "No..."I was awakened by soft whimpers coming from somewhere nearby. Slowly, I opened my eyes and was greeted by the darkness of the room, lit only by a small lampshade. I wasn’t used to sleeping in such darkness.I got up, slipped on my slippers, and stepped out of the room, curious about where the whimpering was coming from—it sounded like someone was in distress. I was about to go downstairs when I noticed Ravi’s door wasn’t fully closed. I walked toward it slowly, intending to shut it, when I heard something from inside.“No, please, no.” I froze. Was that sound coming from him?Instead of closing the door, I pushed it open gently. The room was dim, illuminated only by the moonlight seeping in through his open sliding window.“Ravi?” I whispered as I approached his bed. He didn’t respond. Only half of his face was visible, so I couldn’t tell whether he was awake or as

    “This will be your personal room. Since you’ll only need to be in my room at night, this space is entirely yours. It has its own bed, a small living area, a walk-in closet, your own bathroom, and even an intercom. If you’re not comfortable going downstairs, you can use it to ask someone for anything you need.”I’m now at Ravi’s house, bringing along my clothes and a few personal things. He called me as early as five in the morning and told me he was already parked outside the hospital. He asked if I was still going in, and when I said no, I hurried to get ready.Jane went home last night, and Kei arrived just in time—so Jane probably spent the night at Kei’s place. I haven’t had the chance to talk to Kei yet because I know she’s tired. I thought about calling her, but what exactly would I say? That I agreed to spend six months sharing a bed with someone I barely know? Worse, I don’t even know hi

    "First rule: you have to wear this ring." I nodded and slipped the ring onto my finger. He smiled."Good. Second rule: you can't tell anyone about this deal. Understood?" I nodded again."Third rule: for the next six months, you can’t be associated with any other man. Do you have a boyfriend?""No. That’s fine with me. Proceed," I replied, and he nodded."Fourth rule: you can't fall in love with me." I almost laughed at what he said, but I held it back, worried I might offend him."Okay, got it."We were currently in a private room of what he claimed to be his favorite restaurant. I expected it to be some luxurious place since, well, he looked like someone extremely wealthy. But I was a little surprised when we came here. It seemed like he was a regular—everyone, even the waiters, knew him the moment we walked in."Okay, I’m done. You can start with yours," he said. I took out my mini notepad. I had written dow
