For some reason, his thoughts turned to that day in October, when he had met Layla for the first time the day their professor paired them as project partners. He remembered after they got an A plus on the project, she jumped into his arms and he lifted her and swung her around with joy, both of them laughing so hard the whole class was stunned and staring.Since that day, she has been glue to him and they have been inseparable. He took every class she took, during his best so she wouldn't fall behind and graduate along with him. This coming Saturday, they were graduating, and he had fulfilled his promise to her that make sure she did, so her family could see her worthy to be their heiress and take over the family business. And now, she was about to finally get the life she wanted."Layla?" Rene finally found his voice again and she snapped her head towards him, a dangerous glint in her hazel eyes and her mouth set firmly in a thin line. "It's you, right?"A scoff escaped Layla's lip

Taking the soak coat off his body, Rene tossed it on his bed and collapsed onto the mattress, burying his head in his hands, and sighed deeply."This is all your faulty Rome." He murmured to himself, clenching his fists.Just then, his ringtone began to go off, and he fished for his phone from in his pocket, staring at the caller ID "Mom."For a moment he hesitated, and then he pressed to accept, bringing the phone to his ear. He heard nothing for a minute, and then his mother's sweet voice flooded his ears."Son, are you there?" Catherine asked, sounding anxious."Mmh," Rene replied, running a tired hand over his face and sighing heavily, "Yeah.. Why are you calling?"Silent for another few moments, Catherine let out a shuddery breath. "I don't know why I called. It's silly really... I'm sorry. I know how important this is to you, and that's not fair to you. You must be exhausted, I just wanted to check in on you and make sure you were okay.""I..." Rene tried, but he didn't know wha

One month later.The living room of the safe house kept feeling like it was closing in around him as Rene paced back and front, unable to sit down. There was so much pent-up frustration that was building inside of him."Young master," Adina's voice sounded behind him, and he spun around in shock to see her standing there. Her hands were clasped tightly together in worry, concern written across her features. "Breakfast is ready. You should eat something."Burying his face into his palms, Rene sighed, letting out another deep breath, knowing that there was little point in resisting. Pushing off the wall, he followed after her, and she led the way into the dining area, where food had already been set out on the table. Taking a seat, he picked up his fork and stared at the food, but he wasn't hungry, instead feeling sick to his stomach.Looking up, his eyes caught sight of Adina standing beside the window, her arms crossed as she regarded him solemnly. "Can I join you?" A voice came f

For the longest, Rene stared at his father, feeling his fingernails digging into the palm of his hand as he clenched them into fists. His breathing slowed slightly, his jaw clenching. Then, with a nod, he replied, "Got it.""Thank you, son." Catherine cried, rising from her seat and rushing forward to pull Rene into a hug. "I love you so much." She breathed, holding onto him for a few seconds before pulling away. "Parblo is the head of the maids and his family owns lots of land that the Rossi family wants to acquire. In exchange for the lands, he made an arrangement with Carlo to make his son the grandson-in-law of the Rossi family and give him a title in the family company. The old man agreed and made that into a contract, stating that the one who broke the contract would be penalized based on Parblo's demand. But that request fell on Parblo when he found out that his son was involved with someone and the girl was eight months pregnant and his son refused to marry anyone but her." R

Two days laterThe taxi arrived at the huge gate of the luxurious Rossi family estate, and Rene sat by Parblo, rubbing his sweaty palms against his trousers. The grand gates loomed ahead, flanked by meticulously manicured hedges and towering trees. "We are here." The driver announced their arrival, and Rene could feel his heart pounding as they came to a stop.Parblo glanced at him, his eyes reflecting a mix of concern and encouragement. "Remember, Theo, stay calm and follow my lead. Everything will be fine."Rene nodded, swallowing hard as he tried to steady his nerves. He knew this moment was crucial. The plan they had meticulously crafted hinged on his ability to convincingly assume the identity of Kia Flores. The gates opened smoothly, and the taxi rolled through, making its way up the winding driveway toward the grand entrance of the Rossi mansion. As they approached, the full scale of the estate came into view – a sprawling, opulent building with a façade of gleaming white sto
