Julian The Arcana

Saat aku kembali ke keluarga konglomerat sebagai putri kandung yang sebenarnya, itulah pertama kalinya aku bertemu dengan Julian Jetarsa. Karena sekali saja ia membelaku, aku jatuh cinta padanya selama lima tahun dan mengejarnya selama lima tahun. Akhirnya, ia menjadi tunanganku. Namun, ia justru merendahkanku, menganggapku tidak punya tata krama sejak kecil, tidak punya anggun dan wibawa seorang gadis dari keluarga terpandang. Ketika kakek yang membesarkanku sakit parah dan sekarat di saat aku paling membutuhkan bantuannya, ia malah berkata ingin memberiku sebuah pelajaran agar aku “belajar menjadi lebih baik”. Kakek pun meninggal dalam ketidakberdayaan. Dan seperti yang dia harapkan, aku memang belajar menjadi “anak baik”. Tentu saja, aku juga tak mencintainya lagi.

My boyfriend Julian is a chess grandmaster, a genius. At sixteen, he became the youngest grandmaster in North American history. I gave him ten years of my life, but a ring was never on the table. But when he reached the pinnacle of his career and won the Grand Slam, he still refused to break the pact he'd made with his family about his career. "According to my plan, I'm not considering marriage or any other form of long-term commitment until all my goals are achieved." I didn't argue with him. I quietly packed his luggage for the World Championship and wished him the best. He had no idea that at the very moment he was lifting the championship trophy with the world watching, I was dragging my failing body to sign my own name on a euthanasia consent form.

Yaitu tetap menjadi rahasia dalam hidup pria itu atau meninggalkannya untuk menemukan kembali dirinya sendiri.

According to the news this is going to be the biggest yet most controversial wedding of the year, maybe of the century. Not because the famous bad boy/play boy heir Julian Fernandez and Prodigy daughter Sandra Parker who was to be one for love; they were NOT definitely in love. Not even for the biggest scandal of the year involved the woman's controversial mother but because the two of the most powerful companies is about to merge, to be one to rule. The wedding will serve as proof of sealing the deal, to stand as the foundation of the two companies' new start. In which the unborn lovechild is to solidify the wedding. The scandal between the mother, daughter and the man in between is damned as the two heads of the two powerful companies decided to use it to their advantage, overlooking the fact that Fernandezs and Parkers had been rivals in terms of supremacy and power for decades, deciding they will gain more if they move and operate as one. The whole country is watching, maybe even the whole world. “Let the matrimony of union begin.”

She promised to loathe him. He never meant to hold her. The heart was never addressed in their contract. Elena Vega has to marry the guy who broke her family's inheritance in order to save it. Julian Thorne is a millionaire who is cold and calculating. His proposition is straightforward but cruel: one year of perfect, public marriage in exchange for her family's safety. There are no feelings and no true closeness; it's all a show for the cameras. She enters his world of chilly luxury, holding on to her wrath as her only protection. But the line between their fake love and real, dizzying tension starts to blur. A lingering touch, a kiss stolen in the dark, and whispered secrets in the dark—none of these things were in the tiny print. The most dangerous thing for them right now isn't that their lie will be found out; it's the horrible, unmistakable truth: they are falling for the one person they were told to stay away from. A marriage based on hate. A love built on secrets.

And when old wounds reopen and boundaries blur, Adele is no longer the quiet girl he used to ignore—she’s the woman who might just destroy his control. Because in a game of power, secrets, and desire... The heart never sticks to the rules.
