Brie Larson and Alex Arterra have always been bitter rivals since childhood. They grew up attending the same schools together, and with the brilliant Brie bumped up by three classes because she needs a little more challenge, their constant competition only fueled their hatred towards each other. It is made even worse by the fact that Alex bags the scholarship Brie had worked hard to get, even if he doesn't need it. Years later, their rivalry escalates to new levels of petty when they clash at a shareholders banquet after Alex takes the leadership of Arterra Co. and he finds that Brie had grown from the little, scared nerd to a fiery, beautiful woman. When Alex needs a fake girlfriend, Brie is the only woman who fits his criteria, and at first all she wants is a taste of the soft life, even if it means sharing it with the one person she has sworn to hate for life. Eventually, they fall in love with each other, despite their initial hatred. Unfortunately, their families' long-standing feud becomes a significant obstacle in their relationship. As their relationship deepens, they face a range of challenges from their families' disapproval to the pressures of their different backgrounds. A secret threatens to undo every thread that pulls the duo together, and it is only the beginning. Will they get their happy ever after?

One

BrieI looked around at the extravagant banquet that the company had thrown in honor of our new boss, feeling both excited and anxious. As one of the executives of the company and the head of the human resources department, I sat at the foremost table just before the stage, along with my colleagues. I was in my zone and sat relaxed, back straight, and chin up.As I glanced around the room, I noticed a tall figure with short blonde hair in a snug gray suit striding confidently to the podium. The way he looked as he moved with quick, confident strides first to the old chairman who sold the company to him and then stepping on the podium brought back a flood of memories, from the shape of his shoulders to the way he moved, fluid like pure water. While I still tried to place where I had seen this very person before, he turned to face the crowd.And I gasped, ignoring the puzzled looks of my colleagues, my eyes trained solely on the man, on the very person who made the first years of my lif

AlexAll the long talk was starting to get to me. I would have been perfectly comfortable to meet all the important people I need to meet over one meeting, but I was outvoted even before I entered the company.If this is what I am in for, then heaven help me because it's going to be a long ride.The banquet was being held in the cavernous ballroom of the beach front Hilton Anaheim hotel. To no one's surprise, the old Mr. Grey wanted to leave the company with a bang, and all the members of the board were happy to oblige. I didn't blame them anyway, if I was leaving my company because I needed to retire and I had no family to will it to, I would do the same thing, just so I can have the memories.As much as I tried to understand though, I had had it up to here. There were too many people to meet and greet; from shareholders and their wives, to employees and 'plus ones', and quite a few ladies who wanted to sink their claws into the newest CEO in the country.While I made my rounds, I co

BrieJust one week in and I wanted to tear out my hair and scream. I wanted to plead with every known and unknown higher being to get me out of this mess.Was it my resting bitch face? Or was it because I ran the HR department with an iron fist? I had always been a tough boss. I set high standards for my employees, for myself, and I demanded nothing less than perfection. But lately, it seemed like Alex was my personal punishment for being so hard on everyone. Everywhere I went, there he was, lurking around the corner like a bad omen. I couldn't shake him off no matter how hard I tried.I knew it wasn’t nice to think of your boss like that, but I was at my wits end. It all started with a chance encounter in the elevator on his very first day. I had been the only one in the metal car, seeing as the morning rush of employees wasn’t scheduled for the next thirty minutes. I had always liked to be in my office an hour before time, either so I could catch up on a backlog of files from the p

AlexI settled into my chair, looking out the window of my penthouse suite. The view was stunning, there were no other words to describe the sight of the surf crashing against the white sands of the beach below, but my mind was elsewhere. It had been weeks since I'd arrived, and while I made quite a few deals and we had increased profits from our retail lines the past month, I had noticed a trend every time we tried to bid for a deal. I was well aware that as the CEO, I was in the spotlight because I would be the first indicator of how my company will relate with others, and I thought I had at least been doing well on that count. Most of my investors didn't seem to take me seriously, or see me as a stable person to invest in because I'd never had a girlfriend or woman around me.Quite frankly, I thought having any relationships, serious or otherwise, would be too distracting for me, seeing as I had a quota to meet. It was a personal thing, a short term goal to keep my mind sharp, and

BrieI never imagined that I'd be in this situation, but here I was, preparing the most outrageous plan with Alex to increase our ‘exposure’. It was a bizarre scenario, given that we had never really gotten along, and for as long as we had known each other our relationship had been characterized by an intense feeling – bordering on the wrong side of the love-hate line – for each other. However, when it came down to business, we were willing to put our personal differences aside and work together to achieve our goals.And this was business, at least to me. The contents of the contract sitting prettily on my desk at home still made my head spin, and I almost screamed when I got the first payment not too long after I signed it. If there was one thing I knew for sure about Alex was that he kept his promises down to the very last letter.I had a hundred thousand dollars just sitting in my account, waiting for the rest of the payment, and all I had to do was be seen with the man in public.
