My husband, Samuel Crawford, made an excuse about attending a company business meeting and refused to participate in our daughter's school activity. He also suggested that we should not participate either. Seeing my daughter's disappointment, I decided to take her myself. As soon as we entered the school, I spotted Samuel sitting on the stage with his ex-girlfriend, Monica Sterling, and her son. They looked intimate, appearing every bit like a perfect family of three. Samuel spoke confidently into the microphone about achieving family harmony and career success. Throughout his speech, he occasionally exchanged glances and smiles with Monica. The audience applauded enthusiastically. Samuel's expression grew increasingly smug, and even the little boy beside him wore an arrogant look. Soon the Q&A session came. I then grabbed the microphone and asked, "Mr. Crawford, when did you have a son? Does your wife know about this?"

"I am the maid of my Billionaire Fiancè!"

"Mrs. Sterling, are you sure you're ready to end this marriage of twenty years and give up the custody?" "Yes. File it. I’m done." I said calmly through the phone as I scrubbed at a stubborn grease stain on the granite island. For twenty years, I poured my entire being into this family. I managed the households, handled the children's education , and stood by my husband's side, supporting his rise in the syndicate without complaint. But my husband Alexander brought his young adopted sister Chloe to the interview, saying, "My success today is all thanks to my adopted sister." Even my own children looked down on me, calling me common and crude housewife. They had formed an alliance with his ever-present "auntie," the woman who seemed to think she was the true lady of the house. I signed the divorce papers and walked away, leaving them to become the "perfect family" they clearly wanted. But that when the family panicked…

Celia Johnson, my boss's sister-in-law, joined the company as the finance director and announced that all reimbursements must strictly follow the standards. I spent an entire week running around for the company and finally closed a five-hundred-thousand-dollar deal. Because the client had used two extra packs of paper towels, the per-person amount for their meal ended up eight dollars over the limit. Celia folded her arms, glanced at the reimbursement form on my desk, and sneered. "Five hundred and eight dollars?" "Yes. Last night at The Peak Restaurant, where we closed Richard's deal. Zack was there too," I explained patiently. "Eight dollars over the per-person limit. Not reimbursable," Celia said coldly. I tried to reason with her. "This was a special case. The client is high-level, and the deal amount is large, and Zack personally said it would be fully reimbursed last night." She returned the reimbursement form to me. "I don't care who said that. Don't think closing a five-hundred-thousand-dollar contract lets you ignore company rules. Reimbursements must all follow policies. Everyone will follow them to the letter." I took a deep breath. I knew arguing with her head-on would get me nowhere, so I called Zack directly. Zack said, "I did say it would be reimbursed, but I never said company rules could be ignored. It's just five hundred. And you still get commission from closing the deal. You young people need to have perspective." I stopped arguing. I turned around and refused the delivery containing the hard copy of the five-hundred-thousand-dollar cooperation contract, smiling as I explained, "Company rules say all cash on delivery packages must be refused. "Also, today is my last day here. Starting tomorrow, I work for Richard's company. As the client, I will be setting the rules this time."

Son Bouclier Menteur . Amélia "Amy" Sterling a tout : un nom, une fortune colossale et l'intelligence. Ce qu'elle n'a plus, c'est la patience. Après l'échec d'un mariage arrangé et une tentative d'enlèvement bâclée, elle est devenue cynique et allergique à l'autorité. Pour elle, les gardes du corps sont des accessoires ennuyeux. Poussé par un conseil d'administration anxieux et son oncle machiavélique, Amy se voit imposer Damian Croft, un homme d'une beauté dangereuse et d'un professionnalisme glacial. Ce qu'elle ignore, c'est que "Damian" est en réalité Elias Vance, un détective privé au bord de la faillite, engagé secrètement par l'oncle pour espionner Amy et trouver des preuves de son incompétence à hériter de l'empire familial. Leur cohabitation forcée est un festival de joutes verbales. Amy, maîtresse de l'humiliation subtile, s'amuse à tester les limites de l'imposteur, tandis qu'Elias essaie désespérément de naviguer dans le monde absurde du luxe, commettant des gaffes hilarantes en tentant de rester crédible. Pourtant, sous les piques cinglantes et les missions d'espionnage ratées, une tension irrésistible s'installe. Elias est charmé par le cœur caché derrière le sarcasme d'Amy, et elle commence à voir en lui une présence rassurante, malgré son air de "robot trop bien bâti". Mais le jeu prend une tournure dramatique : les tentatives d'intimidation deviennent réelles, visant non plus à déstabiliser l'héritière, mais à l'éliminer. Elias doit choisir : terminer sa mission secrète, livrer Amy à son oncle et toucher un chèque qui le sauvera, ou trahir son contrat pour devenir réellement le bouclier protecteur de la femme qui a fait voler son cœur en éclats.

"If I touched you, you’d never go back to him." Arden's words rang in my head. My breath caught. Now that I was out of the palace, nothing stood between us. No gilded cages. No cameras in every corner. No Ivana breathing down my neck. Nothing to stop him from making good on those words. And the worst part? A traitorous part of me was curious. What if he was right?
