The Playboy's Karma (UNDER MAJOR REVISION)

Ethios Aniel "Ethan" Del Russo had it all: wealth, charm, and the freedom to live life as he pleased. As the spoiled firstborn of a powerful Filipino-Italian family, he thrived on indulgence, rejecting commitments and reveling in fleeting pleasures. A notorious playboy, Ethan believed nothing could tie him down.

Then he met Reagina Anais. Fierce, captivating, and utterly unforgettable, she wasn't just another woman in his endless string of flings. One fiery slap and a night of intense passion later, Ethan found himself shaken in ways he'd never experienced before. She left a mark on him, one he couldn't erase no matter how hard he tried.

Five years later, the man who once lived recklessly has transformed. Hardened by circumstances, Ethan is colder, more disciplined, and finally feels like he's in control of his life as he prepares to take over his family's empire. But that sense of control begins to unravel when Reagina walks back into his world, not as a memory but as his new employee.

Ethan is forced to confront the past he's tried to bury, only to sense that Reagina is hiding something. Their night together didn't just leave him with memories. It left him with a child he never knew about, a truth Reagina is determined to keep from him. Now, Ethan must navigate a delicate balance between the man he has become and the only woman who has the power to unravel it all.
