Plagiarist in My Studio, His Deep RegretChapter 1

I am a world-renowned young architect.

On the very first day I returned to the United States to establish my own studio, my fiancé, Ethan Miller, walked in carrying a contract.

The heir to the Miller Group—the most powerful name in American architecture—was standing before me, bowing his head with unusual humility.

“Sophia, we’ll soon be family. Sign this contract, and from now on, every Miller project will be yours to lead.”

“I’ve also taken the liberty of bringing back your old college roommate, Chloe Davis. Strengthening the team matters, and she’ll be joining your studio. From now on, you’ll never have to face things alone.”

My fingers traced the cool surface of the trophy on my desk as my lips curved into a faint, mocking smile.

“Quite the proposal, Ethan.

But as I recall, the Foster Group is still waiting for my design…”

His smile froze for a moment. His Adam’s apple shifted, but he forced himself to speak in a gentle tone.

“Sophia, don’t be angry. I only want the best for you—I don’t want you overworked.”

I met his gaze, my own eyes devoid of warmth.
