The next morning, the man, Roman Giovanni, who Sofie later realizes is one of the richest CEOs in America, makes an absurd proposal, for her to be his fake fiancée for a hundred days to fulfill his grandmother's wish, for him to get married. Ignoring her logical reasoning, Sofie accepts his proposal on a whim as she'd rather fake being engaged to a hot billionaire than be the wife of an old ogre. What happens when this arrangement of theirs blooms into love spiced with a generous dash of passionate sexcapades?

"Ijinkan aku menikah lagi, Ren?" Dengan berkaca-kaca, Dani memamdang Reni. "Apa kamu yakin sanggup, Mas? Membimbing satu istri saja kamu nggak bisa, apalagi dua?" Tidak! Reni tidak mau dimadu. Tanpa sadar Reni mengelus perutnya. Berharap anak dalam kandungannya tidak mendengar keinginan gila ayahnya. "InsyaAllah sanggup, Yank." Reni tersenyum kecut. Sholat aja tidak pernah sanggup dari mana? "Kamu gila, Mas!" Jengah dengan kegilaan Dani, Reni segera beranjak dari duduknya dan berlalu dari hadapan Dani. "Ren! Ren!" Dani segera menyusul Reni yang berjalan ke arah kamar. "Ren!" Dani menarik tangan Reni, namun segera ditepis oleh wanita itu. "Lepaskan, Mas!" Hatinya hancur, benar-benar hancur. Dia pikir suaminya telah kembali seperti dulu, namun ternyata dia salah. Malah sebuah permintaan gila yang dimintanya pada Reni. Tak menyerah, Dani terus mengekor Reni hingga ke kamar.

"Mau ngomong apalagi, Mas?" Tangis tak lagi dapat ditahannya. Buliran bening itu akhirnya luruh juga. Ternyata dia tak sekuat yang dibayangkannya.

Dokter mengatakan, tanpa terapi sel terbaru, aku hanya bisa hidup selama 72 jam. Namun, Tommy Harper memberikan satu-satunya kuota pengobatan itu kepada Anna Wilson. "Gagal ginjalnya lebih parah," ujar Tommy. Aku mengangguk, lalu menelan pil putih yang akan mempercepat kematianku. Dalam sisa waktu itu, aku melakukan banyak hal. Saat penandatanganan, tangan pengacara gemetar. "Saham senilai empat triliun ini, Anda benar-benar akan mengalihkan semuanya?" Aku menjawab, "Ya, berikan pada Anna." Putriku, Clarisa, tertawa bahagia dalam pelukan Anna. "Ibu Anna membelikanku gaun baru!" "Bagus sekali, nanti dengarkan perkataan Ibu Anna, ya," ujarku. Galeri seni yang kudirikan dengan tanganku sendiri, berganti nama menjadi milik Anna. "Kakak, kamu terlalu baik," ujarnya sambil menangis. Aku menjawab, "Kamu akan mengelolanya lebih baik dariku." Bahkan aku telah menyerahkan hak atas dana perwalian orang tuaku. Tommy akhirnya menampilkan senyuman tulus pertamanya selama bertahun-tahun. "Sofie, kamu sudah berubah. Kamu nggak lagi galak.

Closing the door shut, I exhaled lowly and turned around to make a dash into the room when my eyes met with a pair of raging fireballs glaring into my soul. How come he is here? I made sure to lock the door. “And you think that a wooden door is strong enough to prevent me from meeting my mate?” He answered my unsaid question, his tone strident and laced with pure rage making me cower back. But still, I mustered up courage and shot him a defiant look. “And I made it clear to you that I don’t accept you as my mate,” I spoke confidently while looking straight into his eyes. My breath hitched when I noticed his eyes darkening. He was clearly pissed by my protest but I stood my ground. Taking a deep breath I continued, “Listen, I can’t be with you nor with anyone. What happened that night was just a mistake and I never accepted you so stop harassing me and just leave-“ Before I could complete it, my neck was grabbed in a vice grip as I was pinned against the door. I quickly shielded my belly with my arms dreading he would hurt my children. But irrespective of my fear-stricken face, he leaned dangerously closer to my face and flashed me a diabolical smirk that dripped with menace. “I think I made it clear to you last night Ms. Evans. I had never asked for your consent in the first place so you… don't really have a choice. ‘Cause once you enter Xavier’s maze, there is no going back, Grace.”
