ELEANOR POVI sat on my bed, a smile on my lips as thoughts of Daniel occupied my mind. We've hung out a few times over the week, and God! I can't stop thinking about him. The way he smiled. The way he looked at me. The way he spoke to me. Two days ago while we were hanging out, he'd gone on his knees and tied my shoelace. He wasn't just the potential heir to the Hart’s group, but also a gentleman… better than the men I've been with in the past. Right there and then, I knew that I wanted him. It's no longer about the game now. I want that man to myself, and I'm going to get him. My mind drifted to Emma, and I scoffed. That bitch! I can't wait to get rid of her. But for now, I need to make Daniel mine. I picked up my car keys and stepped out of the room, heading to Daniel's apartment. I arrived at his apartment and rang the doorbell. My breath caught in my throat the moment the door opened and I was welcomed by Daniel, shirtless. My eyes widened, lingering on his broad

EMMA POV I walked into the private lounge, my phone held tightly in my palm. I paused when I saw Cole. He stood by the window, staring outside, and sipping from a glass of wine. I cleared my throat as he lifted the glass to his lips, “hey…” He paused and turned, our eyes locked across the room. “You asked to see me," I fidgeted with my fingers, weirdly nervous around him. “You seem close to Daniel for a woman who's already married…" he said calmly, a smirk curling the corner of his lips as he leaned against the wall. I blinked, “huh?" He stepped closer, eyes fixed on me, "have you forgotten? No third party during the contract period,” My breath caught in my throat as he stopped right in front of me. I swallowed hard, grip tightening on my purse. I wanted to stay composed myself, but with him standing this close to me, eyes locked on me like he was staring through my soul, I couldn't help it. "I… uhm… think you're misunderstanding something here, Mr. Hart—”

EMMA POV The hall fell silent. My eyes widened in shock. What the hell! “Wh…what's this?” "My God! He's cheating on his fianceé? That's disgusting!" “People are shameless these days," while people whispered and threw Daniel and Eleanor disgusting looks, my eyes were locked on Cole. Did he do this to help me? Why would he help me? What's he up to? What's he hiding? "What the hell is this?!” Grandpa Hart's raging voice tore through the atmosphere, pulling my attention back to him. "Daniel! Is this what you've been doing? Sneaking around behind Emma?” "Gr… grandpa… It's not what you think, alright? It's not what it looks…” Daniel's voice quivered as he rushed to stand in front of the big screen, spreading his arms probably to cover it. “I can explain this, grandpa… I would never do anything to hurt Emma, I promise… I was just…" “Turn this off! Somebody turn this off!" Daniel screamed at whoever, but nobody moved. “He…he must've done this to humiliate me… Uncl

EMMA POV The party ended earlier because of what happened, and everyone left. I stared at Grandpa Hart across the hall as he spoke with a man in his sixties, barely keeping on a smile. As much as the drama earlier was advantageous to me, I still couldn't help but feel bad for the old man. He got his birthday ruined, thanks to that fucker, Daniel. ‘Marry my son, Cole’ I sighed deeply as his words echoed in my head. I didn't give him an answer earlier because I was shocked he'd asked that, considering that Cole was rumoured to be engaged to Melissa. “Looks like our marriage will stop being a secret real soon,” Cole snuck up on me from behind, whispering in my ear. I flinched and missed a step, but his hand slid round my waist before I could fall. My breath caught as I stared into his eyes, neither of us moved. “Do you enjoy falling into my arms so badly?" A smirk curled his lips, and I quickly straightened up before taking a step back. “That was an accident," I defended firm

EMMA POV “It's late, Emma. Where are you headed?" Dad looked at me suspiciously. "Chloe invited me to a party,” His brows knitted together. He didn't believe me, and I was definitely ready to explain myself. That'll be more suspicious. His eyes lingered on me for a moment, hesitating, then he nodded and said, “it's fine. Stay safe," I forced a smile before leaving. I dialed Chloe's number once I hopped in my car, and she picked on the first ring. "Hey… What's up?” Her voice slurred. "I need your help…" “What is it now, girl? I'm trying to sleep here," “My dad is suspicious of me. I think he might follow me, so I lied to him that you invited me to a party," I said, rubbing my temple. Shit! I feel bad burdening Chloe. I should've thought of a better lie. “You're not asking me to stage a party, are you?" She groaned. “Girl, be for real. We're not—" “Let's meet at the club. I'll send you the address," I said hurriedly. “Seriously?" “Ugh! You know I can't say no to y
