OLIVIA


Every single person in the hall was staring at me now, their eyes sharp with scrutiny, trying to determine if Sam was right—if I really did look like Christian’s mystery fiancée.


The one they were all dying to uncover.


My hair matched the one in the photo exactly, and my body size too. Of course, that was me in the picture. A mask and scarf had covered most of my face, but anyone who knew me well enough would be able to tell.


But these people didn’t know me well. They’ve been around for years but they never truly saw me. To them, I was just background noise, never worth paying any attention to.


Well, except, whenever they ridiculed me.


I swallowed hard, silently praying that my classmates wouldn’t put the pieces together.


“Oh, please!” Ivy’s sharp voice cut through my panic, dragging me back to reality. “That’s like comparing a unicorn to a pig. Olivia, our pig, looks nothing like that sophisticated unicorn in the picture.”


Laughter erupted around the room, loud and

“How are you, James?”
My brother rolled his eyes and let his head fall back against the pillow, turning away from me. Well, that was answer enough.
I sighed, biting my lips. I’d come straight after lectures, hoping to make up for all the times I barely visited. But he was obviously upset with me. 
Still, he looked brighter today, more energetic. Just seeing him like this filled my chest with warmth.
Thank God for Christian Blackwood.
“I’m fine,” James grumbled, but his voice was softer than his expression. “But you haven’t been visiting me lately. I’ve missed you.”
From the other side of his bed, my mother gave me a knowing look. I told you, her eyes seemed to say.
I sighed, exasperated. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to see my brother—I would give anything for him to be healthy, to live a long, happy life. Well, I already did by signing myself over to Christian. That was how much I loved James. 
But the choice I’d made to keep him alive had taken over my life. I barely

I stared at Christian from head to toe, my mouth slightly open. 
Was this really happening?
To make matters even more shocking, he held a bouquet of roses in one hand and a basket of snacks in the other. Was he actually standing here with flowers? 
I must be dreaming.
A loud gasp snapped me out of my daze.
“Son-in-law!” my mother practically squealed, rushing forward to usher him further into the room. 
Son-in-law??
I licked my lips, watching as she pulled him inside. He was stiff as a board, clearly uncomfortable, but he let her lead him anyway.
It was real.
Christian had actually come.
“Good afternoon, Mr. Christian,” James greeted, his voice filled with excitement.
Christian turned to him, assessing him with a sharp gaze. “You must be James.” He handed the bouquet and basket to my mother. “How are you feeling?”
“I’m fine, thank you,” James replied, looking up at Christian with something close to awe. “Honestly, I’m just happy you showed up.” He grinned, shaking

“What a sly bastard.”
I paced in my office, flipping through the file in my hands, my gaze skimming over each image. Every picture was of Olivia Carter, the woman supposedly carrying my stepbrother’s child.
I scoffed, shaking my head at the absurdity of it all.
Christian? Expecting a child?
Who were they trying to fool? Not me. 
Deep down, I knew the truth. This was nothing but a sham. Christian had planned the whole idea to fool everyone but I was smarter. 
And the evidence of this entire lie was now in my hands. 
Most of the photos my private investigator obtained showed Olivia Carter dressed casually, but one in particular caught my attention. A CCTV capture of her stepping outside a restaurant to throw out trash, dressed in a waitress uniform. 
The timestamp wasn’t too long ago, confirming she had been working there until recently.
I clenched my jaw, shutting the file down on my desk before turning to my private investigator seated on the couch a few feet away.

I sighed, glancing at the black Rolls-Royce waiting for me at the school’s parking lot. 
Why on earth did Mr. Blackwood want to see me?
“Ma’am?” One of the men who had come to pick me up called out expectantly, holding the car door open.
Wringing my fingers in nervous anticipation, I forced myself forward, ducking my head as I slipped inside. The door shut behind me with a quiet thud, sealing me in.
And just like that, we were on our way—to where, I had no idea.
All I knew was that Christian’s grandfather had demanded to see me.
A shiver ran down my spine as my mind raced with possibilities and why he wanted to see me. Was this about the pregnancy test?
My heart pounded at the thought, a cold sweat forming at my temples.
If it was about the test, what was I supposed to say?
Panic curled around my chest, tightening with each passing second. I hadn’t taken the test yet—mostly because I hadn’t noticed any symptoms. My body felt the same as it had since the countless time

Racing heart. Sweaty palms. A game of confidence with Mr. Blackwood. 
I folded my arms and leaned back in my chair, feigning ease. I couldn’t let him see how nervous I was—I needed him to believe every word of my story.
“Christian told me what his mother went through just because she was like me,” I said, meeting his gaze. “After his father married her.” I let the words linger, watching for a reaction. “He said he wanted to protect me from that.”
To my surprise, Mr. Blackwood chuckled, settling back in his chair. “Everyone knows what happened to Christian’s mother,” he scoffed. “She was never accepted into the family. Anyone could easily pay any journalist to expose the full story.”
I clenched my fists beneath the table, forcing myself to stay composed. “I didn’t expect you to believe me,” I said evenly. “But I will say this—”
He raised a brow, waiting. 
“Your constant disapproval of me,” I continued, voice steady, “Will only make Christian blame you even more for his mot

After Mr. Blackwood left to attend to other business matters, I found myself alone with Ophelia and her staff. I couldn’t help but feel relieved. His presence had been… slightly uncomfortable.
As if faking smiles and laughing at his jokes after blatantly lying to him wasn’t bad enough, his unexpected kindness, his apology, his insistence on bringing me here—only made me feel worse. Like I was the most deceitful person in the world.
At least he’d forgotten about the pregnancy throughout the whole ordeal or he just didn’t care anymore. My revelation about Christian’s mother must have shocked the curiosity right out of him.
Plus I didn’t think I had any more lies or excuses left in me anyway. 
“And… what about this one?” Ophelia’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. She arched a brow, pointing at a diamond-studded necklace displayed in an illuminated glass case. “Do you like it?”
I stared at the necklace, mesmerized by the way the diamonds caught the light, sparkling like tin

I sat in the backseat of the car, staring out the window, my mind racing. Grandfather had summoned me for dinner again, out of nowhere.
These dinners were becoming more frequent than usual and they were always exhausting. 
‘Meet me for dinner tonight.’
That was all the text had said. No explanation. No hint. Nothing.
It felt like I was walking into a blind date except, in this case, it wasn’t the person that was unknown. It was the purpose.
And I didn’t like it one bit. I preferred knowing exactly what I was walking into, preparing myself for whatever lay ahead.
Still lost in thoughts, we pulled into the estate, smoothly gliding into an empty parking spot in the garage. The moment the door opened, I stepped out, adjusting my jacket.
With careful strides, I crossed the forecourt and entered through the main entrance. As I stepped into the grand lobby, I slowed down, catching the faint murmur of voices drifting from the dining room.
Michael was here too?

    CHRISTIAN“May I speak now, Grandfather?” Michael asked, leaning forward in his seat, barely containing his anger.I was certain he couldn’t. He was about to explode if he kept it in. “Go on,” Grandfather urged, nodding.Michael pushed himself to the edge of his seat, linking his hands tightly. “Didn’t you even look at the report I sent?” he asked, his face contorted with agitation. “Christian lied about Olivia Carter!”“Did he?” Grandfather arched his brow. “Christian never claimed anything about her background. We all made our own assumptions—assumptions born from a narrow, misguided mindset.” His gaze shifted between Michael and me. “A mindset that changes today. We have already lost so much in this family because of it. I want it to end now.”Michael scoffed, his eyes darkening with rage. He looked ready to burst but also shocked at the same time, like grandfather was speaking a new language. Watching him, I felt an irresistible urge to smirk and I did, making sure he felt every

    OLIVIAI exhaled shakily, trying to steady my breath. Why the hell was he looking at me like that? Like I was crazy? 
My heart sank. Would he have looked at me this way if I’d been stupid enough to confess my feelings tonight? If I had told him I was jealous of his ex-girlfriend, who he was still hooking up with, by the way?
So, he would have scoffed and told me I was overreacting? That he didn’t understand what I was saying?
I sighed heavily, silently grateful I hadn’t said a word about how I felt.
“Listen,” he began, his voice showing some signs of worry now, “I know you’re still pissed about how I reacted the other day… and like I said, the baby is—”
“I’m not pissed, Christian!” I snapped, my voice rising despite my best efforts to stay calm. “I’m not angry at all.”
“Then what should I call this outburst?” he shot back quietly, and I scoffed.
“You can call it whatever you want, but let me tell you this.” I locked eyes with him, fighting to hold back the tears. “From tonight,

I have a slight tummy ache, so I can’t stay any longer.”“Okay, alright,” he nodded, his brows furrowing in concern. “You have to rest, anyway. Take care of yourself, and if you need anything, let me know.”

    Olivia’s POVI yawned as my eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the light, taking in my surroundings.This room looked unfamiliar…I sat up in a flash, really scanning the room now, my fists clutching the sheets as it dawned on me.Yes… Last night. Christian’s room…The fragments of my memory pieced together, and it all came back to me. My steamy first time.I had eagerly given up my virginity to Christian Blackwood, joining the long list of women who had been intoxicated and enraptured by his looks, and had toppled into his bed.I closed my eyes, a flush creeping up my cheeks as I remembered how I had begged him to take me, groping and yearning for him.“Ugh!” I groaned, hitting my arms and legs against the sheets, kicking them away.What had come over me? How could I have been so easy? Giving myself to him so eagerly? Begging to be devoured like my life depended on it?This was next-level embarrassment.I sighed, my mind drifting back to the previous night. My first time had been bett

    Olivia’s POVI tried to blend in with these sophisticated women in the game room, holding my head high in the same way they did, pretending to check out the exhibits like they were doing.I was very aware of how I carried myself.In the process of pretending, I actually started to really enjoy looking at the exhibits, captivated by the details being displayed on the large screen.Somewhere along the line, I caught Christian’s name in the conversations going on a few feet away from where I stood, and listening carefully, I heard a familiar voice rising from there.Turning my head to the side, I saw Lydia standing there, in the midst of other sophisticated women, lost in whatever conversation they were having.I was tempted to go over there and listen in, and no matter how much I tried to dissuade myself from going, trying to convince myself that whatever it was Lydia was saying was of no concern to me, I still found myself gravitating towards them.I shouldn’t have gone over there…As

The night carried on, and I watched as people waltzed across the dance floor, moving to the music with bright smiles and laughter.
To my surprise, even Mr. Blackwood was dancing, with a woman around his age, no less. A small smile rested on his face as he led her across the floor. So he did things like this? I assumed the Blackwoods were all too serious for fun.
I glanced away and spotted Michael dancing with his wife a little farther away. They didn’t look happy together, moving stiffly to the soft music. 
Meanwhile, Christian and Ophelia were deep in conversation with a group of guests at a table far from ours, caught up in whatever they were discussing. That left just me and Lydia at this table.
She kept staring at me, not even bothering to hide it. I ignored her, but the longer it went on, the more annoyed I felt.
What gave her this sort of confidence to harass me constantly? Was it the fact that she once dated Christian? If you asked me, she was clinging to the past

As the car pulled into the parking lot of Blackwood Hotel, I took in the sight before me, excitement bubbling lightly inside. The building stood tall, decorated beautifully, its windows glowing warmly. 
The engine quieted, and before I could move, Christian stepped out and opened my door. He held out his hand, his expression calm. “Here,” he said softly.
Even though I had promised myself not to let my guard down, I found myself smiling. He had made an effort tonight—the dress, the sweet note. And while my heart still twisted at the thought of his so-called favorite ex, I had agreed to come with him. If not for Christian, then at least for Ophelia. She’d worked too hard on this event, and she would have been disappointed if I hadn’t shown up.
Placing my hand in his, I lifted my dress slightly and stepped out. We walked toward the entrance, my gaze drifting over the decorations. If the exterior looked this enchanting, the interior had to be even more spectacular.
At the doo

I lay on my back in my room, twirling my phone between my fingers, debating whether or not to follow through with the thought that was stuck in my head.
Ever since the car ride with Christian, my mind hadn’t settled. His vague answer about Lydia only made things worse instead of calming me. Who was she to him really? And why wouldn’t he just tell me the truth?
He clearly had no problem sharing my secrets with her—about me, about my brother, while lying in bed with her, no less. So why did he suddenly go vague when the topic was about her?
I tapped my screen, then let it go dark again. I couldn’t decide. My fingers itched to act, while my brain warned me to stop. I even considered throwing the phone across the room and going to sleep.
But curiosity is a dangerous thing, and today, it won.
I pulled up my browser and typed in the name I swore I’d never search: Christian Blackwood and Lydia.
The moment the results loaded, my heart dropped and I forgot all about self-control.

I sighed for what felt like the thousandth time, sitting in the lecture hall. Voices buzzed around me—conversations, laughter, whispers but none of it mattered. I couldn’t bring myself to care about anything they were saying.
The truth was, I didn’t care about much these days. I felt like everything was spiraling beyond my control, like my life had suddenly changed completely. Even the smallest things felt exhausting now, like tasks I’d normally handle without a second thought.
Maybe that’s why I hadn’t gone to see Mr. Sylas yet about the 30% he gave me on my project. He claimed it looked like I used AI, but I just didn’t have the strength to defend myself, not when everything else felt so tiring.
I’d spent all of yesterday in bed, replaying Lydia’s words over and over in my head.
“Is your brother okay?”
“Christian had to shove me out of his bed…”
I scoffed under my breath, biting down on my lower lip. What had I been thinking? That Christian Blackwood, the same man wh

I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection, searching for any signs that my body had changed since I found out I was pregnant.I still looked the same. Deep down, I knew this restlessness was just paranoia. It had only been a few days since I found out. What difference could several hours really make?
Still, the weight in my chest had only grown heavier. The thoughts in my mind, the nervousness, it all seemed to get worse with every passing hour.
A beep from my phone pulled me out of my thoughts. I glanced down at it on the dresser and saw a new email notification. It was an invitation to the Blackwood Annual Event, scheduled for three days from now.
I sighed and picked up the phone, opening the email. The theme caught my eye right away:
“A Night of Masks and Mystery – Gatsby Masquerade Ball.”
A small smile tugged at my lips. I remembered talking to Ophelia about it, wondering how she planned to turn such a big, flashy idea into reality and now, I could see
