Melodramatic

It's the fifth year of my mission to woo the heroine in this world, Aria Langston, yet she forgets my birthday once again. The person who remembers it and sends me a message right on time is none other than the villainous male supporting character, Nolan Kensington. Nolan: "So what if it's your birthday? All I had to do was curl my finger, and she came running to me!" This time, instead of cautiously begging Aria to stay as the system suggests, I reply to Nolan's message. "Thank you! You're the only person today who remembers my birthday." He replies almost instantaneously. "?" Then, my phone starts buzzing nonstop. Nolan: "Hold on… you sent that to the wrong person, didn't you?" Nolan: "Are you serious? Are you really that pitiful?" Nolan: "In that case, do you want me to come over and grab a drink with you?" Nolan: "Forget it. I'm coming over. Since you're allergic to mangoes, I'll order a strawberry cake, okay?" Nolan: "Seriously, I can't with you!" … The moment the doorbell rings, I smile faintly at the system. "You only told me to conquer the protagonist of this world. You never specified it had to be the heroine."

Nice and unique but it can’t keep it straight whether it was Aria or Nolan that helped him that rainy night. First half it was Nolan that did it but then the last half it was Aria that did it.

Chapter 1
The system, which was usually an insufferable chatterbox, went silent for a brief moment before stumbling over its words to explain. [W-What do you mean? The target of your mission is obviously the heroine! You and Aria are definitely going to live happily ever after!]I couldn't help but let out a self-deprecating chuckle. Ever since I was brought to Langston Manor five years ago, the system had been constantly dangling that carrot in front of me, assuring me that all the cold shoulders and grievances I endured were merely trials of love and that Aria Langston and I were destined for a happy ending. Too bad I didn't really want that ending anymore. Ignoring the system, I rose to my feet and walked straight to open the door. The first thing that came into view was Aria's annoyed face.She shot me a cold look. "Even if I forgot our promise, there was no need for you to use Nolan to force me to see you. I had no idea you were so scheming, Clement." I was caught off guard. T

Chapter 2
I arranged to meet Nolan at the cafe below the company. The system was pacing back and forth in my head. [Have you really thought this through, Clement? Are you seriously joining Kensington Group? Nolan's only taking you in right now because he wants to keep you away from the heroine. Once your relationship with the heroine develops, he'll come after you even more ruthlessly!]As I buttoned my shirt, I responded absentmindedly, "At least he can offer me a fair wage, so I won't end up destitute in a foreign land. Besides, Nolan didn't rise above all his siblings and secure his position as the heir of the Kensington family by being some empty-headed scion. So…" I left it at that.Five years ago, I traveled to the capital all on my own to look for my family. The security guards at the villa had looked down their noses at me and ruthlessly driven me away. Aria had swooped in like a dame in shining armor, reprimanded the guards, and brought me back to Langston Manor. Consequently,

Chapter 3
On Monday morning, as I stood in front of Kensington Group's building, the system was still rambling on and on in my head.[Clement, have you really thought this through? You're walking right into Nolan's turf. According to the original storyline, he'll—]Walking into the building, I casually asked, "He'll do what?"[He'll prepare a complete set of office supplies for you on your first day, arrange your workstation, and even have his assistant buy you breakfast... Huh? Wait a second. He doesn't seem that villainous after all…]I couldn't help but burst into laughter. I had known for five years that Nolan was far from an airheaded scion. If the system hadn't pitted us against each other, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out the way they were that day. The elevator doors slid open, and before I could even take a step forward, Nolan was already waiting outside. He sized me up before knitting his brows. "I bought you new clothes, didn't I? Why are you still wearing this?"I lower

Aria never tried to contact me again in the three months I worked at Kensington Group. Nolan assigned me the most professional team and granted me the highest level of authority. I buried myself in work and often forgot to eat and sleep. Occasionally, I caught wind of news about Aria through other people's social media feeds. Even when someone intentionally brought her up in front of me, I simply smiled and brushed it off. Gradually, even the system seemed to have given up on me and left me to my own devices. The only time I happened to run into Aria was at an industry conference. I was on stage, confidently presenting our company's core technology, while Aria sat in the audience, gaping at me. When we brushed past each other after the event ended, she suddenly called out to me. "If you come back, I can pretend that none of this ever happened."I looked at that familiar face of hers, but for some reason, she suddenly felt like a stranger. I took half a step back, my demeanor col

The entire hall went silent for three seconds before a wave of notification chimes broke out like a rising tide. Standing on stage, I watched the blood drain from Aria's face. I pulled out my own phone and saw a financial news notification on its screen. "Kensington Group Secures More Than One Billion Dollars in Investment From Ostria's Rothschild Foundation, Doubling the Value of Its Smart Chip Project."The crowd gasped, and all eyes turned to the entrance at the same time.Clad in a burgundy suit, Nolan sauntered in with a cigar between his fingers and a smirk on his lips. An entourage of impeccably dressed foreigners followed in his wake, led by none other than the Executive Director of the Rothschild family's Pacifica Region, Mr. Sinclair. "I apologize for keeping you waiting." He winked at me. "My flight was delayed, and it held up our roadshow."I stood frozen on the stage, watching as Nolan walked up and took the microphone from me. "The technology Mr. Carlisle just

Ever since the system announced that I had successfully conquered my target, it disappeared. It didn't reappear until three months later, when I walked out of Kensington Group's office building after working overtime. [Long time no see, Clement. How have you been?]The corners of my lips lifted slightly. "Not bad. Much better than before."The system fell silent for a moment. [I reported your situation to headquarters. You're the first host since our inception to complete a mission after changing targets. It might even lead to a major overhaul in our future operations.]I stopped in my tracks and couldn't help but say, "Honestly, it wasn't your fault. I was the one who kept clinging to that sliver of warmth from five years ago, so I made one mistake after another. However, I believe that the people in this world should not be reduced to mere labels like male leads and supporting male characters, nor defined solely by rivalry and conflict. We're living, breathing human beings who

In the six months that followed, Kensington Group's smart chip project progressed at breakneck speed. Like a man possessed, Nolan flew me all across the globe. San Marida, Bregenzia, Westminister, Silicon Arc... We left our footprint in every major tech hub, securing one major partnership after another. "Clement, don't you think we were just born to be business partners?" Nolan sprawled across the couch in the hotel, grinning foolishly while clutching a bottle of red wine. "Why on earth didn't I realize sooner how awesome it is to work with you?" My eyes were glued to my computer screen. "Because back then, you were too busy competing with me over a woman." He was rendered speechless for a moment. Then, he guffawed. "That's right. I was such a huge idiot. I had such an amazing partner right in front of me, yet I chose to butt heads with you over a woman instead."He scrambled off the couch and inched closer to me. His breath reeked of alcohol as it fanned across my face. "Seri

Chapter 8
Aria stood at the entrance to my office, looking even more haggard than she had at the press conference. Her dress was rumpled, her makeup was slightly smudged, and her eyes were bloodshot. Nolan poked his head out from behind me and let out a derisive chuckle. "Are you sure you're in the right place, Ms. Langston?"Paying him no mind, she looked straight at me. "I'd like to have a word with you, Clement." Right after saying that, she took a step forward, but Nolan instantly stepped in front of me. I patted Nolan on the shoulder. "It's fine. I'd like to hear what she has to say." Nolan shot daggers at her and begrudgingly stepped aside. Instead of leaving, he leaned against the edge of my desk, keeping a watchful eye on her. Aria took a deep breath. "Langston Group's almost finished." I remained silent. "I know I brought this on myself. That proposal of yours—the one I casually tossed into the trash two years ago—I want to pick it back up now, but it's too late." Her voi

Chapter 9
A year later, Kensington Group's smart chips had completely taken over the market, and the company's stock price had tripled in value. At the celebration banquet, Nolan had far too much to drink. Clutching the microphone, he refused to let it go and announced to the hundreds of people below the stage, "The best decision I, Nolan Kensington, have ever made in my life is poaching Clement from that dump called Langston Group!"Thunderous applause erupted from the audience. I was all smiles as I sat in the corner and held my wine glass.Just then, my phone lit up with a text from an unknown number. "Congratulations." I took a look at it and left it on read."Get over here and cut the cake, Clement! It's strawberry-flavored!" Nolan called out to me in the distance.I walked over, smiling. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and said, "Next year, we'll ring the bell at NASDAQ. Then, we'll go on a trip around the world, and… Hear me out, what if we set up a branch in San Marida?"
