LOGINBURB: Nathan Reed was born with a physical disability, he has a weak leg from birth and a seizure which leads to nose bleeding and he litterrily grew up in poverty. Quiet and introverted, he was a social outcast in high school, eventually becoming the primary target of a bullying clique. While Noah Grayson was the leader of that clique—the polar opposite of Nathan. He's Born into an elite family, he was a tall, athletic playboy who never knew the meaning of struggle. Traumatized by the abuse from the Noah group, the Nathan was forced to drop out. He spent years working grueling jobs—repairman, delivery driver, construction worker—until he finally landed a position at his current company. Starting from the very bottom, his diligence and competence eventually led him to the position of department manager. Just as he thinks his life is finally on track, his nightmare—Noah reappears. Despite Nathan professional success, he still feels like an ant in the face of the Noah's immense power and status. Mustering his courage to confront him, Nathan was shocked when Noah claims he has come to apologize for his past sins. Asking him to give him a chance to purse him. Is this a sincere confession or a cruel joke? Is the Noah truly repentant, or is there a hidden scheme at play? How will Nathan choose this time?
View MoreNathan pushed open the door to his apartment and stepped inside, the faint scent of takeout still lingering in the air. He turned the lock with a deliberate click, double-checking it out of habit, then let the heavy plastic bags slip from his fingers. They hit the floor with a soft rustle and a muffled thud. Without pausing he crossed the small living room and collapsed onto the couch, his head falling back against the cushions as a long, exhausted sigh escaped him.Today had not gone the way he’d planned. Not even close. Everything felt unbelievable like he’d stepped into someone else’s life for a few hours. Noah had actually apologized. The words had come out of his mouth, quiet and cracked, right there across the table. Nathan didn’t need to question whether it happened, because he’d watched it unfold with his own eyes, felt the weight of every syllable land in his chest.After that, silence had swallowed the rest of the meal. Nathan hadn’t spoken, he couldn’t speak, even when No
Nathan walked back to his department like his legs had turned to lead. The file Noah had given him felt heavier in his hand than it should have—thicker, somehow, even though it was only a few pages. He kept his eyes on the floor the whole way, passing desks and quiet conversations without really seeing them. When he finally reached his office door he paused, fingers tightening around the folder, then pushed inside slowly.He closed the door behind him with a soft click and leaned against it for a second, breathing out. Everything felt unplanned and uncalled for. What was Noah actually planning?Was this another manipulation trick—some elaborate way to pull him back in, make him dependent again? Or was Noah… for real? The bruises, the calm offer, the project details—it didn’t line up with the Noah he remembered. None of it did.He dropped into his chair and laid the file flat on the desk. Opened it carefully. The pages were crisp, professional, it's a joint high-visibility initiative
Monday MorningElle practically flew up the stairs, hrr breath coming in short bursts as she hurried toward Nathan, who was already leaning against the balcony railing waiting for her. The second she reached him she stopped dead, hands on her hips, eyes wide with mock outrage.“Oh you bitch, I will never trust you again!”Nathan only grinned, cheeks already warming despite himself. “No, no… it’s actually not like that.”“What! Why didn’t you tell me you guys went on a date? Twice!” Elle’s voice climbed with delighted disbelief.“Well… I did tell you,” Nathan said, chuckling softly as he rested his jaw in his palm, trying to play it cool even though excitement bubbled under his skin.Elle was too overjoyed to care about technicalities. “Oh my God, that was fast and I’m so happy for you both! How was it? Details—now!”Nathan scratched behind his ear, a nervous little habit, cheeks flushing deeper. “Actually… on Saturday we went to that Chinese place downtown first, then ended up at this
The next day was Friday, the end of the work week, and the weekend stretched ahead like a quiet promise. As usual, Nathan arrived early with one clear purpose burning in his chest—to see Noah again that morning. He stepped into the building with his heart already racing a little faster than normal, palms slightly damp against the strap of his bag. The elevator ride up felt longer than usual, and when the doors opened on his floor he scanned the hallway instinctively. But the office felt different today. Quieter. Emptier.He set his things down at his desk and tried to focus on booting up his computer, yet his mind kept drifting. After a few minutes of restless typing, he caught snippets of conversation from the break room—casual talk about schedules and meetings. That was when he finally pieced it together, the CEO was not coming in today. He was going to be absent the entire day.That’s weird, Nathan thought, a strange little twist of disappointment settling in his stomach. Of cours
It was closing time, and Nathan stayed behind as always, determined to finish every last task before leaving. He liked the quiet of the empty office—the way the hum of computers faded, the fluorescent lights dimmed slightly, the absence of chatter letting him focus without distraction. He finalized
After the brief conversation with Elle, Nathan felt a small breath of relief wash over him, even if it was temporary. He decided to push the chaos aside for now and focus on work because it was early Monday morning, and he couldn’t afford to fall behind. Not with the team depending on him, not with
Immediately Nathan rounded the corner, he crouched down fast, his back pressing against the rough brick wall as his chest rose and fell in sharp, uneven bursts. He pressed one hand to his sternum, trying to force his breathing to slow, to make sense of the frantic pounding inside. What had just h
Noah leaned against the cool marble pillar in the lobby, his arms crossed, eyes fixed on the bank of elevators. The digital clock above the security desk ticked past the twenty-minute mark he’d promised himself. Then twenty-five, and then thirty.But still Nathan was no where to be found.He let o
