Chapter 1: "No. I won't sign it."

Aria traced invisible patterns on the tablecloth, a nervous tic that betrayed her. Her heart raced, it's thundering beats echoing in her ears and each pulse a reminder of the anxiousness coursing through her body. She stood in the middle of the softly lit room, fluffing the same cushion for what felt like the hundred time, making sure every detail was in place for tonight. Everything had to be perfect tonight, from Adrian's reaction, his shock, joy, everything. Rose petals trailed from the entrance of there mansion to the dinning table, which she had set with trembling hands just an hour ago. In the center of the table, a cake sat proudly, it's white icing adorned with the words "Happy 5th Anniversary" written in delicate red frosting. She had even went ahead and made his favorite foods, grilled sea bass, ginger chicken and spicy tofu. She could still smell the garlic in the air. She let out a weary sigh, the sound heavy with the weight of her exhaustion. Pacing towards the wind

Chapter 2: Please, let her come back.

The silence that hung over the room after her confession, felt like a suffocating blanket. It was as though the air had become solid itself, making each breath she took feel like an intrusion into the silence. It was so palpable, pressing in from all direction, making her feel trapped and alone. But then Adrian did something she didn't expect. He laughed. Not a chuckle, or a smirk, but a full blown laugh that echoed throughout the house. His laughter, was tinged with mockery, reverberated through the entire space. His disdainful gaze traveled down her body and back up in slow manner. “You really think you’re, don’t you? You couldn’t get pregnant for past five years, and now you suddenly are? And you expect me to fall for that?” he scoffed at her. She recoiled, as if he had just slapped her, and her body grew more tense to the point of shaking. “It’s true. When I visited the hospital last week for my monthly checkup, the doctor told me I was pregnant. That was why I made

Chapter 3: “What do you think you’re doing?”

Aria blinked against the blinding light that assaulted her eyes the moment she opened them. Her eyes darted around the room searching for confirmation, seeking reassurance that what she was seeing wasn’t a figment of her imagination. She clamped her hand over her mouth, eyes wide with disbelief. She took a step back, body instinctively retreating as though her subconscious had triggered a defensive response to protect her. Music hummed softly in the air, the gentle buzz of elegant laughter and clinking champagne glasses that grounded her to the scene around her. How? She remembered dying. How was it possible she was back at this exact moment? Yet here she was, standing on the very stage that had marked the beginning of her downfall. Her breath hitched as she looked around, heart pounding wildly against her ribcage. Her eyes went vacant, like the empty windows of a haunted house as soon as she saw Adrian beside her, grinning. It was as if her mind were wrapped in wool, softenin

Chapter 4: “You know what? It’s over.”

Ethan's chest constricted as if someone had wrapped steel bands around his ribs. He could not believe he forgot all about Lisa. His girlfriend, who was present at the gala as its event planner. Beads of sweat dotted his forehead despite the coolness of the room. How could he forget all about Lisa being present? He recommended her himself, seeing as she kept begging him to make the connection for her. Planning the end of the year gala for the Lin’s will definitely open more does for her, but he regrets that decision now. From where he stood with Aria still in his arms, he saw how Lisa turned her back on him and stormed out of the hall. His heart raced, its thundering beats echoing in his ears, each pulse a reminder of the anxious torrent coursing through him. One minute he was standing at the edge of the hall, making sure everything was running smoothly, and the next minute, Aria was kissing him. "Aria!" Mr. Lin's voice cut through the blood rushing in his ears. The older man

Chapter 5: Assistant? More like soulmate.

Her eyebrows shot up, forming a high arch of astonishment. It was a written blog. About her. She closed her eyes for a second and breathed through her mouth, and opened her i*******m to read it again for the third time. 🌠‘CEO CHAOS: CEO Turned Heartbreaker says “No” To Fiancé, Then Tongue-Tangles with Her Assistant on Stage?!’🌠 Posted by velvet vine/ Verified Mess since 2020 'Last night’s Lin & Co. gala wasn’t just about launching a new jewelry line… it was about launching one poor man into humiliation orbit. In a scene straight out of a soap opera, Adrian Wu dropped to one knee in front of hundreds of guests, expecting a yes. What he got? A devastating no… and a front-row seat to Aria’s fireworks-level passion for her Assistant, Ethan Luo.' The photo embedded in the article was unforgiving… Adrian on one knee, frozen in shock, ring box still opened… while she had her hands tangled up in Ethan’s collar like something out of a damn romance novel.

Chapter 6: “I told you she wasn’t ready."

She looked away first. And she was saved from answering, when the elevator dinged at the top floor. As the doors opened, she spoke, her voice calm and even. "Next time, Ethan, I will make sure to brief you before I walk into a scandal... not after." She said coldly. And just like that, she stepped out, her back straight, head high, and walked toward the executive boardroom as if her entire life hadn’t imploded in front of the internet just last night. She didn't turn to see if Ethan was following and she honestly didn't care. As soon as she stepped into the boardroom, she could feel how thick the air was from everyone's poorly disguised panic. The long glass table was already littered with laptops, phones, half-drunk coffees, and printed articles from Velvet Vine. And the screens on the wall played a silent loop of news reports and social media clips. Aria stood at the head of the table, arms crossed, her gaze sharp. Her expression gave nothing away, of the panic she

Chapter 7: “Don’t be dramatic.”

Lisa. He beamed, a radiant smile stretching from ear to ear, his entire face alight with a glow that mirrored the warmth in his heart. Her hair was perfectly swept back, lips pressed into a firm line, and not a trace of makeup smudged despite the night. She looked stunning, it hurt. He stared at her, as though he were hypnotized. She stepped inside without asking. “I’m just here for my things.” He blinked, the whiskey making everything feel slightly off-balance. “Lisa, wait. Please... can we talk? Just for a second?” he asked, his voice trembling. She didn’t answer him. She just walked straight past him to the bedroom, grabbed the overnight bag she used to keep there, and started pulling items from the drawer. Her hand grazed the book he once bought her on a whim... Paris in Bloom. She didn’t even hesitate, she puts it into the bag. Ethan followed her, his heart in his throat. “It wasn’t what it looked like.” he tried explaining again. Lisa zipped the bag. “

Chapter 8: “You have twelve hours.”

Her mind had a million things for her to do, but her eyelids kept pulling shut. It was just 8:53am now, but she was already tired. She slumped in her chair, her posture betraying the weariness that had settled deep into her bones. She couldn't erase the look on Ethan's face, when he stormed out of her office just an hour ago. She knew that she had hurt him, and there was nothing she could do to fix that. It's not like she can help him get back with his girlfriend at this point. The office was beginning to buzz by then. She could here phones ringing outside her office door, and the clicking of heels against the polished floors. She checked her phone for perhaps the 20th time. Markus and Delilah still haven't brought what she asked them for. It seems she would have to take matters into her own hands. She was seated at her desk in a deep navy dress suit and a pair of black heels. Her door remained closed since Ethan barged out, the glass frosted over. she spoke quie

Chapter 9: “You really think he’ll make you happy?”

The sun had dipped low over Linyang, throwing golden light against the towering glass of Lin Corporation. Aria walked out of the building her face calm, but her thoughts are not. She was still thinking of Karla's betrayal. She had to admit that it hurt her. She promised herself not to care for anyone and to look only after herself. But here she was still thinking about Karla's betrayal. They were close, not as how she and Mia grew up together, but she still considered Karla as a close friend. The two of them where the only females out of the twenty new interns that where picked about six years ago. And that leads to them being close, they stuck together, and did everything in the office together. Karla was a nice person, so she didn't know where it had all gone wrong. Did she did it for money? For game? No matter how hard she thought of it, it just didn't make sense at all. Well, enough about Karla, she was old news now. Her heels clicked softly across the polishe

Chapter 10: “You mean the headlines.”

The sunlight had just begun to warm the marble floors of the east wing when her phone buzzed on her nightstand. It was just 6:44 AM, but Aria was already dressed in sleek black slacks, a steel-gray blouse tucked in with precision. The edge of her mouth lifted in something that almost looked like hope but held too much tension Her hair was pulled into a low, smooth bun, and a simple gold chain with a watch. She couldn't sleep a wink through out the night. Again. It was now becoming a very bad habit of hers. She picked up the phone without urgency. It was a new message from Marcus Heller > “Board requests your presence this morning. 9:30. Full attendance. Your father will be present.” Aria stared at the screen for a moment, her brows furrowed tightly,and face pinching. Her brows arched upward as if in surprise, but the tightness around her mouth betrayed a deeper calculation. The meeting was a long time coming. What really surprised her was her father being present a
