The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 63: He hoping-desperately-to see her - Annie
After returning, Finn remained dazed. A strange sense of emptiness lingered in his chest as if he had missed something profoundly important.The graceful silhouette of the girl he had encountered near the coffee shop refused to fade from his thoughts, haunting him like a half-remembered dream. Even when he finally arrived back at his hotel room, his mind was still adrift. His unusual demeanor did not go unnoticed-Max, who had been walking beside him, frowned in concern."Boss, are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to take you to the hospital for a check-up?" Max asked, his gaze fixed on Finn's slightly pale face.Finn shook his head and pressed a hand lightly against his forehead. Then, without another word, he pushed open the door and stepped inside."I'm fine. Probably just a little tired. I'll be fine after some rest," he said nonchalantly. "You should get some rest too."Max let out an understanding hum. He didn't forget to remind Finn to call him if anything happened-his room w

Finn's business trip ended in a haze of uncertainty. However, he began to suspect that his longing for Annie had conjured illusions in his mind.Everywhere he went, he imagined he would see her.Even after returning to his country, Finn remained lost in a fog of confusion, unable to understand what had been happening to him lately. But there was little time for reflection. The moment he arrived back home, he was swept into the relentless rhythm of work, often staying late into the night to handle the company's most critical projects....Meanwhile, Sofia's life was in complete turmoil. Ever since she had openly severed ties with Calliope and ceased playing the role of a sycophant, she had become invisible in the household. The very servants who once flattered her now treated her with indifference, their warmth long gone.Worse yet, when she issued commands, they deliberately ignored her.She had lashed out at them more than once, but deep down, she knew-this was all Calliope's doing.

"Is this all it takes to break you?""A little trick, and you're already trembling?" Calliope's lips curled in mockery. "And here I thought you were so strong, Sofia. Wasn't that why you dared to go against me?"She pushed herself up from the table, her eyes raking Sofia from head to toe with unveiled disdain."Such pitiful strength, yet you thought you could challenge me? You truly don't know your place."Sofia clenched her teeth, seething with rage, but words failed her.She had been too arrogant. Too confident.She had believed Calliope couldn't touch her. That she was untouchable.All because she had Finn's money to fall back on.She had taunted Calliope, provoked her, thinking she could get away with it.Calliope watched as realization flickered across Sofia's face-the color draining, the weight of her mistake settling in.With slow, deliberate steps, she closed the distance between them, smiling coldly."So? Have you come to your senses, darling?""Do you still want to defy me?

In the office, Finn was staring intently at his computer screen, barely blinking, completely absorbed in the upcoming project. Max knocked politely before stepping in, as always carrying a thick stack of documents in his hands."Boss, I think we need to talk right away."Finn lazily tore his gaze from the screen, took a sip of coffee, and then looked up at Max."What is it? Is something important?"Max studied Finn as if searching for the right words. After a brief pause, he let out a sigh."I don't know if Sofia has gone through some kind of shock recently or has an agenda, but she's been coming here every single day-just like before.""Every day, she shows up flawlessly made up, playing the role of a devoted fiancée, bringing you lunch. She even subtly probes me about the company's current business situation."Back when Sofia had finally stopped showing up, the one who felt the greatest relief was none other than Max. After all, every time she appeared, Finn would leave him to handl

After Sofia entered Finn's office, Max frowned in confusion and asked him,"Boss, why are you indulging Sofia like this? Letting her into your office-what if she causes trouble?"His brows furrowed as he clenched his fists, looking as if he was ready to march in and drag Sofia out himself.But Finn remained calm. He took a leisurely sip of his tea, his voice unhurried."So what? I want to see exactly what she's up to.""Instead of constantly worrying about Sofia and Hubert's schemes, why not give them the chance to act? That way, we can figure out a countermeasure more quickly."Only then did Max finally grasp Finn's intentions. He let out an "Oh" of realization, impressed by his boss's foresight. Finn merely smiled, offering no further explanation.His gaze, however, remained fixed on the surveillance feed displaying Sofia's figure in his office.Sofia didn't make any immediate moves. Instead, she strolled around the room, casually taking in the arrangement of the furniture-playing t

Hubert put on a sycophantic smile, carefully laying out his plan to Sofia."What do you think about becoming my fiancée after Finn fails this project? Although we don't have real feelings for each other, we can always build them over time."He gazed at Sofia, trying to appear deep and affectionate."Not to mention, I'd love to see Finn crumble under everyone's scrutiny. Losing such a crucial project and his fiancée simultaneously-now that would be a devastating blow."Hubert reveled in the thought, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction. His excitement grew, his voice rising unconsciously-completely oblivious to Sofia's expression, which had turned from indifferent to outright disgusted.She regarded Hubert with unveiled contempt."If that's your plan, then forget it. I have no interest in playing a fake couple with you."At the very least, Finn was handsome and wealthy-pretending to be his fiancée would at least have some prestige to it. But Hubert? He had absolutely nothing going for h

Sometime later...After announcing the project, Finn became engrossed in his work, preparing for the upcoming product launch press conference. He was so busy that he barely paid any attention to Hubert. However, Hubert's absurd antics were impossible to ignore.Manipulating the media, continuously steering public attention toward his own product launch, and-most audaciously-scheduling it exactly three hours before Finn's company's event.The intention was obvious.Hubert was laying a trap.Convinced of his own superiority, he believed he had already secured victory. That was why he deliberately set the timing this way-so that when Finn discovered the leaked project plans and realized that Hubert's new product was a replica of his own, it would be too late to react.A flawless scheme-if only it hadn't been flawed from the very beginning.Finn, however, was in no rush to expose the truth. There was still a week before the press conference, and in the meantime, he remained focused on wha

Finn went ahead with the press conference as if nothing had happened. After all, he knew perfectly well that Hubert was watching him with smug satisfaction, hoping to see him fail.Unfortunately for Hubert, he would be disappointed.The press conference was conducted swiftly and efficiently. The host merely greeted the attendees, gave a brief introduction to Finn's company and the purpose of the event, then invited Finn to the stage to speak.Finn casually adjusted his collar, stepping up with a composed air. The camera flashes lit up the room like a storm of starlight, a clear sign of just how much attention the journalists were paying to this conference. He narrowed his eyes, waiting until the photographers had had their fill before offering a faint smile and beginning his speech."Good afternoon, everyone..."He opened with a calm, steady voice, slowly recounting how he and Kay had begun collaborating to craft the first designs and eventually moved on to bring the project to life.

The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 85: Someone was standing outside the door
Annie glanced at Finn before they both hurried inside. She hadn't even had the chance to press the doorbell when Sofia swung the door open, her face a mixture of panic and worry."Annie, Finn, you're here. I was really so worried," she exclaimed, voice trembling slightly.Annie stepped in, her eyes sweeping around the house. Noticing the absence of anyone else, she looked at Sofia with a hint of suspicion."Where are the police? Why are you here alone?"Sofia's pale face revealed a flicker of discomfort. Clearing her throat, she replied somewhat awkwardly,"They came and searched the area. When they didn't find anything suspicious or dangerous, they left."A spark of surprise flashed across Annie's eyes."That quickly...?"Before she could dwell on it further, Sofia swiftly changed the subject."Thank goodness you and Finn made it in time. I honestly don't know what I would've done otherwise. You have no idea-just a little while ago, I even heard someone trying to enter the wrong pass
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 84: Perhaps you're confusing me with Sofia
"I'll ask one more time-who is he?"Finn frowned, repeating his question with a sharp edge, clearly irritated by Annie's stunned silence. But Annie, still frowning deeply, only stared at him in confusion.Thankfully, Nathan reacted swiftly. He pulled Finn's hand away from Annie and stepped in front of her protectively, his eyes fixed on Finn with wary intensity."And who the hell are you to ask?" Nathan shot back. "As far as I know, she doesn't have a boyfriend or a husband. So what gives you the right to control her?"The easygoing air Nathan had carried before was now gone, replaced by a cold, guarded demeanor. He didn't forget to gently pat Annie's hand in reassurance either-an action that only fueled Finn's growing anger.By now, Annie had regained some of her composure. She leaned slightly forward, giving Finn a displeased look."That's exactly what I was about to ask you." Her voice was cool, clipped."Who are you? What right do you have to interfere in my business?"She couldn'
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 83: Please, stay away from Finn...
Annie stared in shock, her voice rising with concern."Why are you suddenly kneeling? Did something happen?"Indeed, Sofia's unexpected gesture had startled her, and her tone had a hint of urgency.Sofia, however, merely curved her lips into a faint smile, one laced with sorrow."Annie, will you please grant my request? I beg you."Annie stepped forward, trying to help her up, but Sofia remained kneeling, unmoved. Her face was pale, and tears welled in her eyes-she looked pitiful, almost heartbreakingly so."Alright. But stand up first and explain everything. Don't just kneel like that without reason."Only then did Sofia slowly rise to her feet, though her voice still trembled with sobs as she spoke, word by word."Don't mention Finn again. I think... he's figured out there's something different between us. That's why, not long after you left, his attitude towards me suddenly turned cold and distant."What Sofia said left Annie stunned. She hadn't expected it - that Finn would be so
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 82: That twist's better than anything I've seen on TV dramas
Sofia tilted her chin toward the bar, speaking with a calm air."Same as last time. I'll treat you to a few drinks."She fell silent for a moment as if recalling something unpleasant, before continuing,"But don't worry-nothing like that will happen again."Her voice had dropped to a barely audible murmur, and Hubert couldn't help but chuckle. He raised an eyebrow at her and let out a low "Oh?", finding her rather adorable at that moment.True to her word, their conversation was more serious this time. Hubert had overheard a few harsh words from the man earlier, enough to piece together some context, so Sofia no longer tried to hide anything."Right now, I'm fighting against my stepmother. It's been a long time since I last went home," she admitted. "But my stepmother and father aren't ready to let me go."Sofia took a sip of her drink, bitterness flickering across her face."The company's finances are in trouble, and they're too impatient to wait for a real solution. They wanted me
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 81: It's dangerous for a girl to be at a bar alone
A few days passed.Sofia had been caught up dealing with the financial loopholes in her father's company, leaving her with no time to meet Annie. Meanwhile, Annie was equally consumed by her own work and assisting Amber with her new film shoot, barely sparing a thought for Sofia.As for seeking Finn's help with the financial issues-Sofia knew full well it wasn't an option. If she brought it up now, there was a real chance their relationship would reach an impasse. Annie had already returned home; Sofia no longer had many means to keep close contact with Finn.What's more, if Finn truly wished to bestow Annie with the title of fiancée, then surely, he would be all the more eager to see Sofia make a mistake. That way, he could pursue Annie openly and justifiably, making them a rightful couple in everyone's eyes.And that was the outcome Sofia feared the most.So, when it came to this matter, she was as good as lost-on the verge of losing her mind. At times like these, she often ended up
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 80: He's looking at you like he's madly in love with you
After giving Finn a quick reminder, Mike smirked and told him to wait outside. Then, straightening his collar with a calm, confident air, he cleared his throat and stepped into the room."Everyone, may I have your attention for a moment? I have something to announce," Mike called out, his voice carrying easily across the space.Once he was certain all eyes-including Annie's-were on him, he continued in a bold, theatrical tone."Today, my friend, the CEO of a very well-known company-you've definitely heard of it-Company X happens to be in the area."He paused deliberately for effect."He decided to drop by and visit me. And not just that-he's generously sponsoring lunch and afternoon tea for all of us during the shoot. Let's give a warm welcome to my friend, Finn!"Mike's playful tone lifted the mood instantly, drawing laughter and applause from the crew. He sneaked a glance at Annie, and sure enough, caught a flicker of unease on her face-her complexion paled slightly, her expression
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 79: Would you still think that meeting's your top priority?
After standing dazed on the balcony, Annie finally gathered herself. She let out a soft sigh and stepped back inside, only to find that Isolde had already been awake for quite some time. The girl blinked at her, voice gentle."You're up early. Is it because you have a shoot today and need to prepare?"Annie nodded, yawning lazily. She reminded Isolde to call her if anything happened at home, and only after the girl nodded in agreement did she start getting ready to leave.Isolde followed her downstairs and made a simple breakfast of sandwiches and warm milk. The two of them sat down to eat together. During their quiet meal, Isolde asked softly,"Who were you on the phone with this morning? You didn't look too well afterward."Isolde was an observant soul. With just one glance, she could sense Annie's unease. Annie didn't try to hide it and confessed honestly-Sofia had called, asking to meet and talk about Finn."Sofia knows what you've been through and still wants to meet? Is she tryi
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 78: There was no future for them
Hubert's teasing remark brought a flush to Sofia's cheeks. She opened her mouth to respond, but before she could say anything, she heard a soft chuckle escape his lips."What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?"His voice dropped to a lower, more serious register."Or... are you regretting having a one-night stand with me? After all, you're still Finn's fiancée. Now that you've slept with me, are you feeling guilty... repenting for your betrayal?"Sofia seemed lost in thought, her expression dazed, and Hubert gave a faint, mocking smile. But she shook her head and replied with quiet sincerity."No. I'm just trying to remember exactly how... we ended up sleeping together last night."Her tone was honest. Though she often drank, she had never once gone so far as to do something reckless. And now, thinking back on what had happened the night before still left her stunned.Hubert scoffed."Isn't it obvious? You just couldn't resist my charm. It's perfectly understandable."He said it carelessly
The Blind Billionaire's Fake Fiancée Chapter 77: Tonight, I just want to be with you
"Are you really okay? That man was quite rude earlier," Hubert said, his eyes falling on Sofia's arm-still red and tender from the encounter. Concern laced his voice.Sofia forced a small smile, trying to appear unfazed."I'm really fine. And... thank you for today."Though their relationship had never been particularly close-and in truth, Sofia hadn't always treated Hubert with the respect he deserved-this time, she was genuinely grateful.Without him, she didn't even dare to imagine how things might have turned out."I'm glad you're okay," Hubert said gently. "But it's dangerous for a woman to go to a bar alone. Why didn't you ask a friend to come with you?"His question was casual, almost offhanded. Sofia shrugged and replied that she didn't like going out with others. Hubert didn't press further-just offered a soft, easy smile."Well then, do you mind if I join you for a few more drinks? After all, I did help you out with something pretty serious. Asking for a few drinks in return
