Cradling him in my arms, I resolved that enough was enough.
At this rate, I’d never achieve my dream of retiring in a villa with Nico by my side. Julian’s demands were pushing me into an endless cycle of exhaustion and misery.
I needed to take action. I needed a plan.
That night, I stayed up brainstorming and finally wrote a proposal. It was audacious but brilliant.
The plan? To help Julian win back his childhood sweetheart, Chloe Grant, by pretending to be his girlfriend.
The proposal broke down into key arguments.
If Julian kept acting like a womanizer, Chloe would only grow more distant. She would eventually view him as a scumbag and doubt his character entirely. Chloe was highly competitive, as most upper-class elites tended to be. Seeing Julian happily in a committed relationship would spark her curiosity and jealousy. My suggestion was simple: Julian could make me his “fake” girlfriend. With this arrangement, we could manipulate Chloe into wanting him back. Once Julian and Chloe reconciled, I would gracefully bow out of the picture.
For this brilliant plan, I demanded a fee of ten million dollars.
