“I’ll marry the next woman who walks through that door,” the CEO declared confidently, but the moment he opened it, he gasped.

Ethan Kade, billionaire CEO of KadeTech, stunned his boardroom by declaring he’d marry the first woman to walk through the door. Tired of wedding talk after his brother’s lavish ceremony, he aimed to prove love was just a transaction. When Olivia Lane, a barista in jeans, entered with misfiled mail, laughter erupted, but Ethan froze—she was unexpected, real. Ignoring doubts, he proposed days later at her coffee shop counter. Olivia, amused yet cautious, agreed, thinking it temporary.

Three weeks later, they married on KadeTech’s rooftop, sparking headlines. But Olivia wasn’t Olivia—she was Anna Whitmore, a former journalist hiding after exposing Halvex Biotech, a company tied to KadeTech. Her past, marked by threats and a burned apartment, had forced her into a new identity. Ethan, unaware, grew captivated by her authenticity.

Then, a mysterious envelope revealed Anna’s true identity and her article. Confronted, she admitted hiding to survive, not to deceive. Ethan, betrayed yet drawn to her, faced a choice. They didn’t divorce. Instead, Ethan cut ties with Halvex, and Anna published a final exposé under her real name. Together, they stopped hiding. Ethan learned love wasn’t a deal but a risk worth taking, sparked by the woman who walked through the door.
