She has spent months dating the son of one of the city’s most powerful men — enduring his cruelty, his temper, and the pain he leaves behind, believing his lies each time he apologises. Until the day she finds proof he has been cheating all along. Heartbroken and furious, she takes back her power — posting a bold photo to her Instagram, knowing he is blocked and will never see it. Minutes later, a single comment catches her eye: "Don't you have a boyfriend?" She replies sharply, shutting him down, assuming it’s just a stranger judging her. But when she wakes, her phone is flooded — six missed calls and endless messages from an unknown number. Confused, she answers — and freezes. The voice on the other end is deep, commanding, and unmistakably her boyfriend’s father. He isn’t angry. He isn’t disgusted. He tells her calmly that he has known exactly what his son has been doing all along — and that seeing her tonight only confirmed what he had already started to realise: he is far more interested in her than he ever should be.
