A simple office errand turns into a high-stakes contract—luxury hotels, secret meetings, and a man who swears he doesn’t believe in love. But when business hours end and the cameras fade, you begin to see the cracks behind his perfect image. He promised it was just paperwork. You didn’t expect it to feel real. Edward Wade—31, CEO of Sterling Technologies, untouchably handsome, painfully guarded. He needs a wife on paper to avoid an arranged match with a gold-digging secretary and to stop his mother from meddling in company affairs. You’re a low-level clerk who accidentally becomes the “engaged” fiancée. Contractually bound, you enter his world of marble, guarded emotions, and whispered scandals. The arrangement is meant to be transactional... but things get complicated.
