Cracking Coding Interview

Ketika ranking komiknya terjun bebas dalam semalam, Trisha terpaksa membuka diri untuk terjun ke dalam dunia penulisan Romance. Namun, apa yang harus dia lakukan ketika dirinya sama sekali tidak berpengalaman dalam hal tersebut? "Besok pagi lo interview buat jadi asisten aktor. Pastikan kalau lo keterima!

“Can I still be your executive assistant?” Narat asked, giving those cute puppy eyes. Kasit smirked. “Why? You want the job just to get close to me?” “No way,” Narat said quickly. “Even if I was a girl, you wouldn’t be my type.” Kasit’s eyes went big. “What? Do you know how many people want me?” Narat laughed. “They must be blind. I just need the job to pay you back.” Kasit lifted one eyebrow. “Okay, you get the job… but only on one condition.” “What condition?” “Marry me.” Narat woke up in a stranger’s bed. His head was empty. He remembered nothing from the night before. No clue how he got there. Both guys are straight. They only like women. But that night, something wild happened. Narat suffers from sleepwalking. That night, he sleepwalked right into Kasit’s life and into his bed. During the job interview, the CEO who requested to interview him personally turned out to be Kasit, the stranger he had a night with. Things got heated up for Narat,he got indebted to Kasit and needed money for his sister's hospital bill, Kasit offered him a deal to marry him… but it’s a trap. Kasit is mad about Narat’s turning him down and complicating his life. He plans revenge: make Narat fall in love,use him to avoid marrying Darika,then dump him. Narat has his own plan too:manipulate him,take the money he needs, then make Kasit hate him so he ends the marriage. Both think they will win this game of tricks and hidden feelings. But that one night already changed everything. Straight guys… now fighting new desires they can’t ignore. Who will break first? Who will win when hate turns to love?

Everyone in the company knows one thing about Ethan Jang. Our CEO has no heart. Cold. Emotionless. Brutal enough to fire someone before they finish “Good morning.” So imagine my shock when I walk into his office at 2 a.m. and catch the “Ice King of Seoul” ugly-crying over a K-drama, clutching a tissue and whispering, “Don’t die, Eun-bi… please…” I should’ve backed out slowly. Instead, he saw me. Now Ethan Jang billionaire, perfectionist, professional soul-crusher — is doing everything to shut me up: bribing me with bonuses, threatening to transfer me to Antarctica, and begging me (yes, begging) to keep his midnight K-drama breakdowns a secret. But hiding it becomes impossible when: • He accidentally quotes K-drama love lines during meetings. • He drags me into a fake-dating scandal to protect his image. • He insists on “rehearsing” romantic confession scenes with me… too close, too intensely. • And worst of all, his cold façade starts cracking — and I’m starting to like what I see underneath. He’s all logic and walls. I’m chaos, emotions, and bad decisions. We were never meant to mix… yet somehow we’re falling into the messiest, funniest, and most unexpected romance of our lives. Because the scariest man in the company isn’t heartless after all he’s just been waiting for someone to rewrite his script.

The year I was at my poorest, I impersonated my sister to take care of her blind fiancé in exchange for one hundred thousand dollars. On the day he regained his sight, I left without a word. When we met again, it was during a business interview. I was a nameless intern reporter. He had returned to his rightful status as the heir of the influential Hughes family. During the interview, the host asked, "We’ve heard that during your illness, your fiancée, Miss Dawson, stayed by your side through thick and thin. The two of you are about to get married?" He lifted his hand slightly, revealing a ring, and his lips curled into a faint smile. "Yes, we’re getting engaged soon." Yet, his gaze, through the lens of his glasses, landed—intentionally or not—on me, standing in the corner.

Sienna Lewis had been with Sea City’s cold and distant CEO, Zayden Scott, for four years, but he still refused to let his guard down. So, she called her mother. “Mom, you can go ahead and arrange that pilot interview for me now.” On the other end, Helen Bennett sounded shocked. “Really? Didn’t you want to stay in Sea City and get married? You even gave up your dream of becoming a pilot.” Sienna looked at Zayden under the dim lights. He was madly obsessed with that girl and terrified of losing her. She smiled self-deprecatingly. Once she returned to Helmswick, her career would pick up again. From then on, nothing would hold her back. She would be Sienna Lewis, the pilot, again, not some pathetic woman—trapped in a forbidden love affair.
