Five years into my quest to conquer the male lead, Patrick Suede forgot my birthday once again. Instead, the villainess texted me, “So what if it’s your birthday? He came crawling to me at the snap of my fingers. For once, I didn’t take the System’s suggestion to break down. I replied, “Thank you. You’re the only one who remembered my birthday today.” The response back was a big question mark. My phone kept going off with notifications. “Seriously. Were you meant to send that to someone else? “Are you for real? That’s kind of sad. “What do you want for your birthday? “Forget it. I’m coming over. Since you can’t eat mangoes, I’ll get you a strawberry cake. “Honestly, you’re a handful.” … When my doorbell rang, I grinned at the System. “The mission is to romance the main character of this world. You never said it had to be a guy.”

Patrick stood at the doorway of my office, looking more haggard than he did at the press conference. His suit was wrinkled, his tie hung crookedly to the side, and his eyes were bloodshot. Peeking from behind me, Arabella scoffed. “I believe you are lost, Mr. Suede.” Not giving her the time of day, Patrick stared right into my eyes. “I need a word with you, Skye.” He took a step forward, only for Arabella to shield me behind her. I gave Arabella a pat on the shoulder. “It’s okay. Let him speak.” Arabella shot him an angry look before reluctantly giving way. Still, she stuck around. Putting her weight on the desk, she didn’t take her eyes away from him. Patrick inhaled deeply. “It’s over for Suede Corporation.” I said nothing. “I know I deserve it. I tried to salvage your business proposal, the one I dumped in the trash can, but it’s too late.” His voice trembled. “Skye, I’m not asking for your forgiveness. I just… I just want to let you know that you’re the most i

In the following six months, Brimble Network’s AI chip project made rapid progress.Fueled by an adrenaline rush, Arabella took me around the world. Our destinations included Silicon Valley, London, Tokyo, Singapore…. We made our presence known in every leading tech hub, securing one major partnership after another. “Skye, don’t you think we are born to be business partners?” Arabella slumped against the hotel sofa, clutching a wine bottle with a silly grin. “Why didn’t I notice sooner that working with you would be an absolute blast?” I stared at the computer screen, not even looking up. “You were too busy fighting with me over a guy.” Arabella choked before roaring with laughter. “Right, right. I’m the big dummy passing up on an amazing partner just to obsess over some toxic guy.”She scrambled up and got close to me, the alcohol in her breath brushing against my face. “Seriously, though. Do you still hate me?” I looked up, meeting her sparkling eyes. Hate? Five

Since the day the mission was declared a success, the System vanished.Three months later, the System reemerged as I was stepping out of Brimble Network after picking up a late shift. “It’s been a while, Player. Have you been well?” I grinned. “Pretty good. Things have been a whole lot better than before.” The System fell silent for a bit. “I’ve passed along your feedback to headquarters. You’re the first player to pull off a successful quest after switching assigned targets. We might be expecting a huge change in our upcoming conquest.” I stopped in my tracks and uttered, “To be fair, I’m not putting the blame on you. I was too attached to the fleeting kindness five years ago, and I ended up making the same mistake. Still, I want to say that the relationships between women shouldn’t be limited to the heroine and villainess fighting over some man. We are all human beings with our own feelings and minds.” The System sighed. “You have a point. We’ll make improvements. Pe

Silence settled over the room until notification pings began spilling in from every direction.Standing on stage, I noticed color draining from Patrick’s face. I grabbed my phone, and the push notification from a financial news outlet came up. “Brimble Network Secures over 1 Billion in Investment from the UK’s Rothschild Fund, Doubling AI Chip Project Valuation.” Gasps filled the air as all eyes turned to the entrance. Arabella, dressed in a burgundy evening gown, strutted into the hall in her heels with a smirk. Behind her was a group of foreign executives in suits. The man at the front was none other than the managing director for the Rothschild Fund of the region. “I’m sorry for the fashionably late entrance.” She gave me a wink. “My flight was delayed, almost running our pitch presentation.” I stood in daze as Arabella came on stage and took over the microphone. “The technology that Ms. Simms just presented will be the Brimble Network’s strategic direction for
