1. Contract and First contact

"You, come here!" Lia Carver sat in the last row waiting for her number to be called. But she was abruptly greeted by someone else. The person was in a suit and his serious face had a trace of impatience he hadn't masked obviously. She was observant and she understood that something was gravely wrong here. Anyway, she had to leave. "Can I ask why you called me? This is my card. I'm here for the interview. If I go with you, I will miss my chance." The man was visibly provocative now. He showed her his ID. The fancy kind that the top assistants carried. She was taken aback but she quietly followed now. If she followed him, she wouldn't miss the interview chance. He would leave her a way out. He took her to the elevator to the topmost floor. This elevator was only used by two people, other than the maintenance team, she guessed. The elevator opened and a chic office space was in her view. The decoration was classy, she admitted. There was no one else and the man took her to the inne

2. Married without Formalities

"We are just partners, not the marriage type. We are acting in a play. Anything beyond that is not allowed," Lia told the irritated CEO before her. Their deal was concluded after they altered some documents. Lia was not stupid enough to tell her family all this. They would kill her, with words. She did not like them buzzing around her with research and documents about the harm in doing this. Anyway, there was no harm done here if she kept quiet. She earned money now, just like a worker. Aster had some hidden purpose and she wasn't interested in his affairs as long as he paid her on time. In the end, both were happy. She didn't have to think of excuses to tell her family as they would eventually separate. So, to save them from all the formalities and whatnot, she was going to take this secret to the grave. Aster was still working. He never had to do all this but his brother was gone, so he had to shoulder all the tasks alone. "Sir, why did you select her? There are so many people

3. Jump OR Not?

Lia felt cold for the first time. Even her mother looked at her with confusion. What will she say? Was she doomed? "I was with a friend?" "I was sending documents?" She was still thinking and her brain to mouth coordination was still off so she stuttered. "I...I...I" "Then I thought you could never even get a seat in the bus; how could you be in a car?" She was relieved but she felt her palms itchy. This brat was getting courageous. "Like how you search for chocolate wrappers in the dustbin?" "Stop fighting." Their mother had the final say in this matter. They ate quietly but this gave Lia the opportunity to think about her mistakes. Should wear a disguise. What if her mother saw her next time? She wouldn't have the brain supplement reaction like her brother. Then her whole thing would be out of the bag and she would have her ears pulled. Then she would be a laughingstock as she looked like a human rabbit. Talk of the devil. Aster-Hello, Wife! She gritted her teeth. Lia-

4. Ladies and Lia

"What do you mean?" Lia was dumbfounded. It was the first time, that stuff like this had happened to her. "I have to study your whole book tonight and meet your family and also some enemies tomorrow?" Aster sounded too confident. "You are really smart. You can do it," he said encouragingly. Lia was angry. She had to read it till midnight for just a once over. Who knows how much she would remember? She was clever not a genius. She had studied countless nights to get here. Not one night. Men were disasters. She solemnly read till midnight and passed out. Her mother thought it was a case study when she came to wake her up. She unknowingly dodged a bullet. If her mother read it, she would be done. Wow. God really helped her. Aster waited for her to change their outfits. This time, there was a personal costume designer and makeup artist to change their looks. Lia became a glammed-up version of herself in advance mode. She looked wow but knew she had no time to do this routine every

5. Rich but not rich

"Halley, that's enough." Aster yelled at her. He never thought that this young miss would react like this. She had pestered him before but later she stopped because he stopped coming to such parties. He thought that she had changed her target. "Brother, how could you yell at me for an outsider?" She cried. her tears glistened and she looked like a pitiful kitten. Lia almost wanted to clap for her acting skills. but Aster seemed unbothered. Lia felt that the dramas weren't wrong. This crying, these similar dialogues, wow. Halley was the second female lead, right? "Halley, I never liked you. Nor did my brother. You should stop this nonsense." Halley then cried on the spot. The previous one was just acting but this was real. No matter what, having your heart broken hurts. But having your heart broken in front of everyone including your competitive peers and maybe enemies, it's just like death. Halley sobbed now. Lia almost felt sorry for her but she stopped that feeling because Hall

6. Oath meant to be broken

"You know her. She is the one who told me the programming idea back then. You wanted to hire her then but I said no. She is now very good. Very powerful. And by coincidence, she came into my life. I thought that maybe she could be my wife."Aster talked to his comatose brother but he did not reveal the entire situation. He knew that you should never talk about everything outright. What if the walls have ears? He was already facing many troubles and didn't want more of them to be added to the list.He then watched his brother lay still for a long time and then he visited his sister-in-law. Like his brother, she was also in a coma. He just told her to get well soon."Sister-in-law, I will get the kid back to me. No one can snatch him away in your absence."With this promise, he went back. The day was rather hard. He had to deal with the nosy chattering relatives and also some wealthy people in the group. They were like the melon-watching crowd who loved to know other people's family mat

7. Closer and happier

Aster had put their little argument away because he had work to do. No matter how much he loved to watch movies, shows and read novels, work was the first priority at the moment. And now, he was to go and recruit some personnel. It was actually all planned by his brother and he kept working according to it.To be honest, he had no talent in this, managing the company was out of bounds for him. He went according to the plan and everything was going well. His brother had planned five years in advance. The technologies to be introduced and the economic changes were all listed. That's why the company was going in a straight line. There was obviously no increasing trend but thankfully no decreasing trend too. Otherwise, someday when his brother woke up and saw the bankrupt group, he would chase him with a stick.Aster: Come with me somewhere.Lia looked at the message and she was genuinely irked. She was making a website and an app to convert photographs to sketches and paintings accordin

8. Admit the Crush

"He was handsome. But again, breakups don't need reasons."Brothers are annoying creatures. He was talking nonstop about the coffee shop guy. Personally, Lia was all about gossip. But she was the person involved so she felt mildly guilty and faintly irritated listening to his chattering narration. She should be very happy to hear stuff about Aster considering how much he was working her constantly but it wasn't the case.Thankfully their mother was the epitome of perfect and she put a stop to this."You shouldn't talk about someone like this."She hit his head with a newspaper. Lia chuckled seeing his wronged look.She rolled her eyes at him. He wasn't getting any help from her. He was in for a long lecture anyway. His grades were falling way deep into the sea level. And he skipped the class today too. They were the polar opposites. She thrived in good grades and he loved not getting grades. He somehow managed to pass every grade. She thought that this was also a kind of talent. A pr

9. Lottery and Lie Snowball

"My nephew Asher, he will be back in a week."Lia was in Aster's office listening to his schedule."That's good!"Aster nodded. "You know what that means?""No?""It means we should probably live together."Lia laughed. That was the best joke she had ever heard."I'm serious.""No, you are Aster. "Seeing that he didn't chuckle with her, Lia finally realized that something was wrong. Very wrong."You are not kidding?"Aster shook his head."That's really impossible. My family will not allow me to do this.""I know. That's why we need to find a way."They pondered many ideas."How about I leave after your nephew falls asleep and come up early in the morning?""A good idea. But he is not stupid. He will catch on layer. Or someone else will catch it."Yeah, Aster was probably in surveillance every moment."Then if I live with you, my family will catch on."Yeah, it was like a dead end."How about you live in my apartment building? You can leave whenever you want and come whenever you wan

10. Hate and relocate

"Mom, I think we should get an apartment. I want to buy one near my office and my lab. So, I can rest assured about you."It wasn't actually a lie. Lia had stayed most days at the lab so she didn't have to travel. And now she felt it would be good to get that apartment. It was really good. And she would still earn later. Then they could buy land."Yes, it's your money. You decide."Her mother had decided."But Mom-""Jake, next time you win the lottery, we will go with your decision. And your sister should have thought about this. I trust her."It's not every day that you find trust like this. Lia was so moved that she cried.She told them she would go see some apartments near the tech district. That place was the most developed one in terms of company headquarters and real estate. And Aster had a place there. It's cool, and she was not getting it for free. Also, Lia thought if things didn't work out in the end, she would sell the place. Someone would definitely buy. It's kinda a win
