When struggling, debt-ridden Nelly takes a job as a housekeeper for billionaire Aiden Kesington, she’s just hoping to keep her life from falling apart. But stepping into Aiden's world is like entering a gilded fortress: his life is locked behind wealth, isolation, and a painful family legacy. Abandoned by his mother and molded by rivalry with his powerful father and his half sibling, Aiden trusts no one—and expects nothing from anyone. Nelly, however is different. With her warm humor and relentless curiosity, she slips through his defenses, lighting up the dark corners of his carefully guarded life. But when Aiden, desperate to impress a powerful investor, invents a fiancée who sounds suspiciously like Nelly, an impulsive decision spirals into a tangled lie: Nelly must pose as his bride-to-be. Thrust into the spotlight of Aiden’s high-stakes world, Nelly finds herself torn between duty and desire—and facing enemies she never anticipated, from scheming exes to cutthroat family members. As their fake engagement blurs into something real, old wounds, jealous rivals, and a shocking pregnancy plot threaten to rip them apart. Now, Aiden must confront the ghosts of his past, or risk losing the only person who’s ever seen him as more than just a Kesington. Can they survive the family betrayals and lies that surround them—or is love just another illusion in Aiden’s cold, calculated world?

Aiden“Did Nelly ask for more than the usual three days off?” Rose’s voice broke through the silence as she handed me my bag.I tried to sound casual, even though I’d been wondering the same thing. “Why?”“She’s just… taking more time than she was supposed to. Young people these days,” she muttered, her tone sharp.I chuckled,. “You hired her, though.”Rose raised an eyebrow. “I expected her to be different from the rest, given how she presented herself. But no, she’s just like everyone else—she won’t follow the rules.”I leaned back against the doorframe, keeping my tone light. “Maybe it’s time you became a little flexible with your rules.”The instant Rose’s eyes met mine, I felt the weight of her gaze like daggers. I quickly added, “I’m just concerned you’re raising your blood pressure too much. That’s not good for you.”“What’s not good for me is a tyrant employee.” Her voice hardened. “I should issue her a warning.”“She hasn’t been out there for almost a month,” I pointed out.“

Nelly“And I’ve never met anyone like you,” Danielle said with a mock scoff, weaving her fingers through my hair. Her smirk caught my reflection in the bathroom mirror, light and teasing. I couldn’t even muster a response to match her energy. My thoughts were tangled, disjointed, and her reaction to my half-told story wasn’t helping.“Seize the opportunity and willingly drown in love,” she added with an exaggerated flourish.“What does that even mean? We just—” I stopped myself with a sharp sigh, pressing my lips together.“Oh no, you’re not dropping that sentence halfway.” Danielle’s hands stilled, and her eyes narrowed on my reflection. “Spill. The. Tea. Now.”“What do you want from me?” I asked, slumping forward, defeated.“The whole story! You’re holding back, and I need details. Come on, Nelly, I’m listening, no judgment.”I side-eyed her, unimpressed. “You were judging the second I opened my mouth.”“That was moderate judging. My bestie suddenly catching the attention of a billi

AidenThe sharp chime of my Rolex marked the end of my patience. Almost noon. This conversation needed to end now."You don’t know what I want," I said, my voice steady but tight with frustration. "But I’ll tell you what I don’t want: to become heir to the Kesington Group."A soft knock interrupted me. Samantha, my secretary, peeked through the door, her hand hovering awkwardly in the air as if asking permission to exist. I waved her off, and she vanished as quickly as she’d appeared, her retreating steps as if she was already eager to escape the tension radiating from my office.On the other end of the phone, my mother’s sharp inhale was audible. Her tone was as frigid as ever. "You’re becoming more like your father—a spoiled brat. Opportunities like this don’t fall into everyone’s lap, and you’re treating it like a game."I clenched my jaw. "I’m tired of repeating myself to you. You don’t know the first thing about running that group. You can’t even manage your own affairs."Her scof

Nelly"Rose said to take care of the bottom part of the fridge," Lilian called out, giving me a quick wave as she stepped out the door. I waved back distractedly, glancing at my phone. The time blinked: 4:00 PM. The estate began to quiet down as the other employees trickled out.I watched Lilian disappear down the yard, the faint hum of a cars engine fading into the distance. The estate was still again, morphing back into what Aiden probably considered a "home." I could see his point: the place felt like a bustling office during work hours, crowded with strangers coming and going. But for me, the silence left behind wasn’t peaceful—it was isolating. I wished I could leave with the others, and not feel this constant weight of expectation pressing down on me.Maybe it was because I hadn’t even been paid yet.I unlocked my phone and opened my calendar, scrolling quickly to the end of the month. A grin spread across my face when I realized there were only four more days until payday. Relie

AidenI wiped my hands on my joggers and shut the shed door with a firm click. The air carried the earthy tang of sweat and livestock, a reminder of how deep I’d thrown myself into the morning’s work. My clothes reeked of cows, and I made a mental note to clean up downstairs before getting ready to meet Liam and Derrick.The day had been satisfying in its quietness. Busy, yes, but it was the kind of work I didn’t mind—work I’ll chose. Still, I couldn’t pretend I didn’t need Rose’s team to manage the house. It was a trade-off I wrestled with: I needed their help, but not their constant presence. Letting them work on their own schedule, then leave, struck the right balance. Not that they annoyed me, but solitude was the kind of peace I’d earned after dealing with people all week.Well, except for Nelly who is now rooted here. The thought of her lingered, curious and unwelcome. When had she left Cooper Oak? Couldn’t have been this morning—I’d been up with the sun, tending to the livestoc

NellyAs soon as my heart steadied from the shock of Aiden’s flirty expression—his face far too close for comfort—I shook my head and strode away as fast as my legs could carry me. What the hell was that about?Aiden was supposed to be the guy who avoided people, not the type to make hearts race against their will. And for heaven's sake, why did he always seem allergic to wearing a shirt in his own house? My cheeks burned just thinking about it. My thoughts churned as I rounded the corner, trying to banish the memory of his piercing gaze.But then, my heart nearly stopped.There she was. The blonde woman from last night. Her sharp, blue-eyed glare locked onto mine the instant I noticed her, and I froze like a deer caught in headlights.She didn’t stop. Instead, she marched toward me, her heels clicking with purpose. I scrambled to the side, pressing myself against the wall as she brushed past me without so much as a glance.Straight to the kitchen she went.And then, it began.“I knew

Aiden“You shouldn’t act like you’re doing me a favor, Aiden!” Ms. Victoria’s voice blasted through the phone, making the speaker crackle with the sharpness of her anger. I winced, feeling the irritation settle into my half-asleep haze. Rolling over, I placed the phone on speaker and set it down on the bedside table, groaning internally.“Okay,” I muttered, barely awake, my voice sluggish with the remnants of sleep.Rubbing my eyes, I caught a glimpse of the clock. 7:50 a.m. Too early for this. I leaned back, resting my head against the headboard, and fought to shake off the drowsiness clouding my mind. But her voice clawed through the quiet of my room, the words sharp and cutting.“I really hoped you’d turn out better than your father.”A familiar, bitter feeling twisted in my stomach. I exhaled, feeling the sting behind my eyes—not from fatigue anymore but from a buried frustration I hadn’t wanted to touch this morning. “You didn’t exactly work toward that goal,” I replied, knowing

Nelly“Babe, just know you’re welcome back home anytime if things get rough over there. No pressure.” Danielle’s voice crackled over the line, sounding distant and warm.Liam’s voice broke in sharply before I could respond. “Stop acting like she lost someone,” he scoffed so loudly that I had to hold the phone away from my ear.“Oh, shut up!” Danielle shot back, laughing. “Ignore him, he’s way too excited about you moving out.”“She’s got a job now, get used to it,” Liam cut in again, followed by the sound of something clattering to the floor. “And trust me—I made sure he’s not coming back here.”A laugh burst out of me, uncontainable. “Wait, did you throw out his little Celtic trinket box?”“I did.”“Come on, the guy’s trying to start a fantasy YouTube channel,” I said, catching my breath between giggles.Danielle chuckled. “And he knows better than to butt into my conversations now.”“Is Steve home?”“Not yet,” she replied. “He’ll be more shocked that you took this job than that you

Aiden "Thank you, Mr. Aiden, for gracing this occasion. The students loved it—it’s a dream come true for most of them," the Dean of Student Affairs said, stretching out his hand with a wide grin.I shook his hand, my gaze straying momentarily to the small crowd of students gathered nearby. Even while trying to stay discreet, they couldn’t hide their excitement—some were blowing kisses, others snapping pictures from every angle they could find.It was almost funny to be here now, considering how tedious the last two hours had felt while I gave a speech I hadn't exactly been thrilled to deliver.I managed a polite smile as I shook the dean’s hand, noticing out of the corner of my eye a young photographer—maybe a student intern—trying to capture the moment. He was practically contorting himself, adjusting his camera over and over, looking for the perfect shot of me and the dean. The poor guy had been at it for hours, and judging by his furrowed brow, he still wasn’t satisfied.The dean

Nelly“It’s official. No one in this house loves me,” I announced, letting my voice carry through the apartment.A chorus of responses echoed from different rooms. “How?”I rolled my eyes, smirking at the synchronized concern. “Because I’m still jobless! How is that not total chaos? And I can’t go back to that creepy part-time gig.”“Trust me, no one wants to see you here every day either,” Liam called out from the far end of the hallway. His room was the farthest from mine, but his sarcasm cut through the distance with ease. “I’m using every connection I have to pull some strings for you, princess.”I sighed, flopping back into the plush couch, staring up at the ceiling. “No thanks, but if there’s a way to sell my degree on eBay, I’m all for it.”Steve’s voice chimed in, always ready with unsolicited advice. “And that’s why you all should’ve chosen a useful ma—”Before he could finish, a collective shout echoed through the house.“Shut up, Steve!”The united force of our voices sent ...
