Wonderful to see you both.”Isabella handed him a beautifully decorated cake. "We got this for you, sir."Mr. Reed's eyes lit up.

As she kept thinking of what happened today at the boutique."Hey, I'm back! Isabella, are you home?" James called out, entering the apartment.Isabella wrapped herself in a towel. But as she turned the corner, she collided with James."Ah! Oh no!" she screamed as her towel fell."I didn't see anything, Isabella. I swear," James assured her, quickly turning around."Get out!

James greeted Isabella coldly, his eyes scanning her from head to toe."Welcome, Isabella. You're finally here," he said, his tone dripping with sarcasm.Isabella smiled nervously, "Thank you, James. This is...wow."James snorted, pouring himself a drink. "Save the small talk, Isabella. You're not here for the view."Isabella's smile faltered. "James, I—"He cut her off, his voice icy. "Let's get down to business. You're here for the money, and I'm here for...well, let's just say you're a means to an end."Isabella's eyes widened, hurt by his blunt words.James sneered. "Don't play coy, Isabella. You were desperate for that money."Isabella's face burned. "James, that's not—"He interrupted, his tone condescending. "Don't deny it, Isabella.

"And don't think for a second you can back out now. You're in this to

You didn't get the job.?Isabella dropped onto the couch, exhaling deeply. "Far from it girl, I got more than the job. James Reed offered me an insane proposal." "What kind of proposal?" Mia's eyes widened Isabella hesitated before blurting out the truth.

At the same time"Isabella nodded. "I know, right? I'm still trying to process all of it, it seems like a dream to me.""Tell me everything! What did he say exactly?" as she jumped up in excitement.Isabella took a deep breath, recounting the meeting. "He said he needs someone to pretend to be his girlfriend, then marry him to satisfy his parents, and in return, he's g

Isabella slumped onto her bed, surrounded by stacks of unpaid bills. Her best friend, Mia, sat beside her, going through a glossy magazine, concern etched on her face."Isabella, you’ve been quiet for too long and you kinda look restless. What’s going on?” she asked gently, setting the magazine aside.“It’s just... everything is piling up, you know? I lost my job last month, and now the bills are starting to come in. Miranda's surgery is next week, and I still can't afford it. I don't know what to do, Mia," Isabella confessed, tears welling up in her eyes.
