Chapter 1
Maggie unexpectedly gained a domineering CEO boyfriend on the same day she was cheated on by her previous one. He teased her playfully at every opportunity and loved her deeply. However, he always called her "Meg" in bed. Maggie thought it was just one of his peculiar habits.
Later, Maggie saw Megan's grave. Only then did she realize that his deep affection was not inexplicable, but rather perfectly calculated.
In the cramped backseat of the car, Maggie curled up near the door, ready to escape at any moment. However, the man beside her had no intention of letting her go. He shifted closer, pressing his body against hers, and locked the car door.
He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Miss, you think you can ruin my reputation and just leave?"
His breath on her ear made her shiver and feel a sudden heat. "I, um, I was impulsive just now. I'm sorry."
Today was the 100th concert of Brody's career, Maggie's idol since high school. She had spent a fortune buying three tickets from a ticket reseller to attend Brody's concert with her boyfriend Andrew and her best friend Rebecca.
Unexpectedly, when the camera panned to Andrew, he pulled a veil from his pocket and placed it on Rebecca's head. Ignoring Maggie's shocked gaze, he got down on one knee and proposed to Rebecca.
Furious, Maggie glanced at the man sitting next to her. He wasn't bad-looking, had no ring on his finger, and was accompanied by a male friend. In a fit of rage, she grabbed his collar and kissed him without hesitation.
Initially, Maggie only intended to brush her lips against his, but as she tried to pull away, the man cupped the back of her head. She felt his tongue slowly prying her lips open, exploring until it entwined with hers.
"Maggie, what are you doing!" Andrew yanked her away from the stranger.
Maggie found Andrew's anger amusing. He could propose to another woman in front of everyone, disregarding her feelings as his official girlfriend, but couldn't stand her making him a cuckold.
She glanced at Rebecca behind Andrew. Rebecca, perhaps intentionally, raised her hand to adjust her hair, revealing the diamond ring on her finger. Maggie kicked Andrew in the groin. "Do I need to report my actions to you? What relationship do we have? Take care of your fiancée!" With that, she pulled the stranger and left the concert.
Maggie dragged the man out of the stadium. Once outside, she couldn't hold it together any longer. She collapsed to the ground, crying uncontrollably. Between sobs, she apologized to the man, "I'm sorry for ruining your concert experience. Let's exchange messaging app contacts, and I'll reimburse you for the ticket."
She didn't get a response. Just as she was about to look up, she felt herself being lifted off the ground. The next moment, she was in the man's arms.
He carried her all the way to the parking lot and put her in the luxury car they were now sitting in.
The man continued to close in on Maggie. With no space left behind her, her back was pressed firmly against the car door. "So, tell me, how do you intend to make it up to me?"
He looked at her with interest, his body pressing against her chest. One hand caressed her slender waist, his cold yet handsome face inching closer. Maggie, nervous, closed her eyes. Seeing this, the man stopped teasing her and retreated to a safe distance. "You were quite bold when you kissed me earlier. Now you're scared? That's no fun."
He unlocked the car door. Hearing the sound, Maggie quickly opened the door and fled in a panic.
