MasukSandara Vernace is one of Hornbrown Investments’ top financial managers. Whether it was stocks, bonds, mutual funds, nothing is too complex for her expertise. But when it comes to love, Sandara is about to play the riskiest game of her life. Her target? Kleinder Maze Velasco: the ruthless branch manager, influential gang member of No Mercy, and the one man who thinks someone like Sandara could never belong in his world. For six months, she plans to make him fall in love with her… only to break his heart in the end. Will Sandara succeed in turning Kleinder’s world upside down? And when secrets long buried come to light, will her carefully laid plan survive? Or will she lose more than she bargained for?

My head was starting to ache because of this woman. I wasn’t answering her at all, yet she kept asking me the same question over and over.“Should we just switch offices?” I asked her with a raised eyebrow as I clicked the save button on the PowerPoint presentation I had just finished.I was supposed to have this approved by Kleinder later before reporting it to the other finance managers. Shainara would be there too.“Don’t be ridiculous! I’m talking to you properly,” she said, glaring at me before crossing her arms.I honestly didn’t know why she was so obsessed with finding out that Kleinder and I talked in the cafeteria. Because of that, she hadn’t done anything today except bother me nonstop.I just shook my head and rolled my eyes before continuing my
“I’ll break your heart after six months.”That was it.Those were the cold words I said to Kleinder, who was calmly eating a salad at one of the cafeteria tables. No small talk. No beating around the bush. Even while I was still looking for him earlier, that was already what I had in mind.I wanted to break his heart the same way he broke my best friend’s.I sneered when he almost spat out his food at what I said. Yet after what he did to Shainara, he hadn’t shown even the slightest reaction. He could still eat properly despite everything he’d done. Did he have no conscience?Ah, right. Of course he didn’t. If he had one, he wouldn’t be the kind of man who makes countless women cry and plays with them as if they were nothing more than dolls.“Sorry,” he said, setting his plate down and wiping his mouth after I suddenly sat across from him. “What did you say again?”He smiled at me as if his entire day had been perfect. I hated the fact that he was smirking like that while cold rain
Today was a gloomy day, unlike the past few days when it felt like my skin was about to burn from the heat. The moment I woke up in the morning, the sky was already dark. It seemed like it could rain at any moment, yet even now, in the afternoon, not a single drop had fallen.I almost ended up late for work because I thought it was still nighttime, but thankfully I noticed the clock on my bedside table. I cursed under my breath as I hurriedly got ready. Our company is strict when it comes to time.“Coffee, ma’am?” Janice said as she entered my office, carrying a cup of instant coffee. I hadn’t asked her for it, but I guess she noticed that I hadn’t eaten anything since earlier, so she took the initiative.“Thank you. Just leave it there,” I replied without even looking at her.As always, I was busy evaluating where I should invest my clients’ money. That’s all I ever do. I’m honestly close to getting sick of this job. The salary is the only reason I’m still here.Janice placed the
I don’t know how I ended up standing in front of Shainara’s condo unit tonight. It’s extremely far from our company, but even so, I drove all the way here just to see her.I couldn’t wait until tomorrow, and I couldn’t scold her properly over the phone. I wasn’t even the type of person who would barge into someone’s place without the owner knowing, but right now, I truly couldn’t stop myself. I made the effort to come all the way to her unit just to lecture her.“Shainara?” I called out as I pressed the doorbell. I don’t know how many times already, but surely, it was more than enough to make someone annoyed.“Open the door, you dimwit,” I added, trying to keep my composure.I didn’t want the security guards to drag me away for causing a scene in front of her unit. If that happened, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish my goal of lecturing her until my voice gave out.After several more doorbell rings and repeated phone calls, the door finally opened. Shainara appeared in front of me, h
