Emma Carter has spent her life chasing her dream of revolutionizing sustainable fashion. Daniel Reynolds, heir to a business empire, has everything money can buy, except the freedom to follow his heart. When their worlds collide, sparks fly, but so do complications. As ambition, family expectations, and betrayal threaten to tear them apart, Emma and Daniel must face a pivotal question: How much are they willing to sacrifice for love?
Emma Carter stood in the middle of the bustling Manhattan startup pitch fair, nervously adjusting the display of her booth. Around her, eager entrepreneurs showcased innovative tech gadgets, flashy apps, and solutions promising to revolutionize industries. Amid the chaos, her sustainable fashion brand, Haven, seemed painfully out of place.
Her pitch had gone well-or so she thought. The investors nodded politely, but their questions revealed skepticism: "How scalable is this? What's your five-year ROI projection?" They didn't understand her passion or the importance of ethical practices in the fashion industry.
As the fair wound down, Emma fought back the sting of rejection. She began packing her samples when a voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Leaving so soon?"
She turned to see a man leaning against a nearby booth. He was tall, impeccably dressed in a tailored navy suit that looked effortless but screamed wealth. His sharp blue eyes sparkled with curiosity, and the smirk playing on his lips was equal parts charm and arrogance.
"Excuse me?" Emma asked, tightening her grip on a garment bag.
"I saw your pitch," he said. "Impressive. But passion alone doesn't build empires."
Emma stiffened. "And what do you know about empires?"
"Quite a bit," he replied, extending a hand. "Daniel Reynolds. Venture capitalist."
Her breath hitched. She'd heard of the Reynolds dynasty-one of the wealthiest families in the country.
"I'm not looking for a bailout," she said sharply, refusing his handshake.
Daniel laughed, unfazed. "It's not a bailout. It's an opportunity." He handed her a sleek business card. "Meet me tomorrow. I think we can make something extraordinary together."
Emma hesitated, watching him walk away with an air of confidence that annoyed her as much as it intrigued her. Later that night, as she lay in bed scrolling through his email, her fingers hovered over the keyboard.
Against her instincts, she typed: Let's meet. I'm interested in hearing what you have to say.

As a simple assistant, messaging the CEO in the dead of night to request shares of adult films was a bold move. Bethany, unsurprisingly, didn't receive any films.

But instead, her boss proposed, "Marry me. Please consider it." "Mr. Bates, you're kidding me, right?"

But her transformation instantly threw Alston into a panic... And what is the secret from 11 years ago that Cecilia has always been reluctant to reveal? *** "She went to a law firm, met with a lawyer..." A lawyer? Is Cecilia suing someone? Who? Is there any recent litigation against the company? Alston suddenly chuckled coldly, "Who could she sue? I'm the CEO of this company. How come such a matter doesn't come to me first?" The assistant swallowed nervously, speaking softly, "Sir, there's no litigation against the company. She met with... a divorce lawyer."
