Whenever I was on a video call with my online boyfriend, I carefully angled the camera, terrified he might see my shabby rental. One day, the ‘curtain’ behind him slipped, revealing an original Picasso. I said, “Nice edit. It looks like the real thing.” He angled the camera and showed my doodle next to the Picasso. “Yeah, my dad said that this one’s worth the most.” When the day came for us to finally meet in real life, I lugged two sacks of potatoes, ready to help him out. The butler, dressed in a sharp suit, opened the door. “Ma’am, Mr. Rigsby has been waiting for you to pick out an engagement ring.” My knees gave out. “Um… Are these potatoes enough to make a pot of stew?”

The setting sun bathed the vast estate in a warm orange hue. The terrace had been fully set up.Taking the hint, Tyson retreated to a distance. “Does your dad find me that annoying?” I spoke in hushed tones, my eyes never leaving the receding figure. I wouldn’t call his swift escape subtle. Terry chuckled. His slender fingers found mine under the table. “You’re overthinking it. He’s just getting the hang of some third-wheel etiquette.” Silence filled the air, broken only by rustling leaves and the sound of our breaths. Whirr! A heavy, mechanical hum cut through the quiet of the evening.It gathered speed, rapidly coming closer. Startled, I nearly sprang off my seat and looked up abruptly at the sky. Countless soft lights sparkled across the black velvet sky. I stood corrected. These weren’t stars.They were drones. An organized swarm of drones rose from every corner of the estate, assembling in the air. The lights rippled and shifted in ever-changing patterns

Terry suggested enthusiastically, “How about a stroll through the garden? To walk off all that food.” His eyes sparkled like a dog eager to show off its new find. Sure, he was easy on the eyes, but he came across a little soulless. “Um… It’s nice.” I remarked dryly, “It’s neat.” It felt wrong to step on the lawn because it would be a violation of order. Terry picked up on my reservations. “Don’t let the appearance fool you. There’s a secret to the garden.” He pulled me along, and the scene ahead came into full view. There, a tiny patch of sanctuary lay before us. It was a modest vegetable garden. “Uh…” I stared at the little nook, stunned by its vigor, or rather, rustic essence. I turned to the decorative pines nearby, my mind once again failing me. “Who did this?” “My dad. He said the garden in the front was for show, but this is his private plot.” I was speechless. Meanwhile, I pictured Tyson, along with his larger-than-life presence and looks that could ki

I froze, feeling like the marble floor sizzling beneath my canvas shoes. “Come on.” Terry gave my hand a little squeeze and tugged me along like I was a startled rabbit. “I’ll show you around my place.” The entire space gave off a solid, heavy, and wealthy vibe. It basically screamed ‘Terry’s dad’.It was nothing like the place of a twenty-something. “Uh… Is this your study?” The way I looked at it, this was clearly Tyson’s command center. Terry read my mind. Like a magic trick, he pulled out a pile of junk food. I was talking about chips, beef jerky, and bottles of fizz. “This is my hideout.” He grabbed a bag of chips and gave it a shake, looking a little pleased with himself. “My dad banned junk food from the common areas. He claimed that it ruins the estate’s aesthetics.” He ripped the pack open. “Want some? This should calm your nerves.” I was lost for words. Just as I stared at the heir clutching a bag of chips in his six-figure suit, something in me snapped

“Miss Horten, the food reserve at the estate is well-stocked. I’m sure the kitchen can meet your request for the stew.” The lady stepped aside. “Young Rigsby is here. This way, please.” “Sam!” Terry’s voice was filled with joy. Spreading his arms, Terry was dying to give me a hug. However, when his gaze fell on sacks of earthy produce, he stopped short and shifted to haul the heavy load for me instead. “What’s all this?” The surprise and confusion in his tone were clear. “No, no, no.” Jumping into action, I guarded the supplies like a hawk. “You have an expensive suit on. Don’t get it dirty.” Jesus Christ. His entire attire screamed expensive. If a dash of dirt from my spuds ruined that fabric, I’d have to sell more than a kidney just to foot the cleaning bill. Not releasing his grip, Terry yanked the sacks toward himself. “Who cares if I got my clothes dirty? The thought and effort you put into bringing the gift to me mean everything.” I could only watch as the
