AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hello readers! Given recent industry announcements, I want to be unequivocal: this is a fictional story. The "Jen" and "Lisa" and many others name in this tale are characters I've created for a narrative. They are not representations of the real-life idols. This is written for entertainment within the fan community. Thank you for understanding! Now, onto the story... Jennie Kim and Lisa Manoban, two ruthless, commitment-phobic CEOs, have been forced into a strategic marriage by their board to protect their empires. But neither woman plays second. Neither bows. And now, legally bound, their war begins with silk sheets, cold threats, and the most seductive kind of danger. 💎 Jennie Ruby Jane Kim CEO of Kim Dynasty Group (luxury fashion empire) "The Ice Queen" Ruthlessly elegant, poised, emotionally unavailable, calculated. Master of control. Wields silence and sarcasm like weapons. Used to believe in love once-Lisa ruined that. Visionary leader, shrewd negotiator, commanding presence, quietly protective. 🔥 Lalisa Manoban (Lisa) CEO of Manoban Technologies (AI & global tech empire) "The Billion-Dollar Brat" Playful, flirtatious, genius-level intelligence, emotionally chaotic beneath the charm. Once proposed to Jennie in college-was rejected. Still dreams of it. Creative disruptor, magnetic leader, loyal to the death, fearless in love.

But when she unexpectedly runs into the one person responsible for turning her high school years into a nightmare, will she keep running, or will the burnt pages of her past find a way back into her life for a second chance? Jennie Kim, statuesque and beautiful, made sure she remained at the top of the social pyramid even if it meant stepping on a few heads to get there. But even she had her own secrets to evade after graduation. College can change a person - it can be a new start an opportunity for reinvention. So when she unexpectedly runs into the one person for whom she made high school especially miserable, will history repeat itself or has she changed enough to be given a second chance? @credits to the very deserving one

Lisa stared at the the second floor and her eyes were fixed on the glass windows. To her surprise, she saw someone is watching her behind the window. Even though the lights in the room is dim, but her vision is not wrong, when the moonlight passed through the room, she clearly saw that someone is there. The person's face isn't very clear, but she knew it is a girl. For a mere second they stared at each other before then the girl disappeared behind the curtain.

"I have spent most of my life in a never-ending expectancy." "it's easy to look back and realized that though I used to live in a never-ending expectancy it was only because I was waiting for her." © amindless-dreamer (Igot permission from the author, original story has the same name) (It is a camren original, one of the best i've read during my stay on that titanic ship)

"If you still want to be with me, I'll stay by your side..." Lisa firmly said, her voice steady but heavy with unspoken emotions, as if she were standing on the precipice of a life-altering decision. Jennie blinked, caught off guard. Her breath hitched in her throat, and she struggled to gather her thoughts. "H-Huh?" she stammered, a whirlwind of nerves churning inside her. "Do you still have feelings for me?" Lisa asked, her gaze piercing through Jennie with an honesty that left no room for evasion. "W-What?" "Do you still like me, Jennie?" In that moment, time seemed to stand still. Jennie's heart raced, each beat echoing in her ears like a distant drum. Fear and hope collided within her, creating a tempest of emotion. After a moment that felt like an eternity, she nodded, breathless. "Yes." Lisa held her gaze, the silence stretching between them as if the weight of their shared history hung in the air. Finally, she spoke, her tone resolute. "I regret it, Jennie..." "What do you mean?" Jennie's confusion deepened. ...I regret the time we've wasted apart... "Let's be together," Lisa declared, her voice unwavering. "I don't need you to do anything. I don't need you to promise me forever or to stand by me without fail. If the day comes when you want to leave me...when you want to walk away, then let's part ways. But right now, at this moment, let's choose to be together." After ten long years of searching and thousands of miles of being alone, it turns out... ...the only thing Lisa truly wanted was to be with Jennie. ••• This is merely an adaptation.
