31 bab Lengkap Sophia Bennet
At 19, my world is gilded with privilege, yet beneath the surface, I'm tangled in a web of emotions I never expected to find myself in. My crush on Gabriel-my father's rival-feels both exhilarating and forbidden. He's older, married, and yet, there's an undeniable spark. I see the way he carries himself in meetings, the confidence that radiates from him. But with each stolen glance, I'm reminded of the chasm between us. My father's legacy looms large, and the thought of betraying him feels like a betrayal to my very identity. Yet, when Gabriel looks my way, I can't help but wonder if there's more to him than the rival he's made himself out to be.
Gabriel
As a businessman, I thrive on competition. But when I see Sophia, the daughter of my fiercest rival, everything shifts. She's young, ambitious, and so full of life, yet I know I should keep my distance. My marriage to Natasha has been a partnership based on mutual respect, but lately, I feel the weight of unfulfilled desires. Sophia's lingering gaze haunts me in meetings. I remind myself that I can't cross that line-not just because of my vows, but because it would mean dragging her into a world of rivalry and chaos. Yet, the thought of her is intoxicating, and every time we're in the same room, I feel the stakes rising.
Marshal Bennet
I built my empire through sheer determination and a ruthless approach to business. Gabriel's emergence as a competitor has been a thorn in my side, but what unnerves me more is the way he seems to captivate my daughter. Sophia is innocent, yet I can see the glimmers of ambition in her eyes-a reflection of my own drive. I know Gabriel plays dirty, and his charm could easily entangle her in a dangerous game. My instincts scream to protect her, to keep her away from someone who could lead her down a dark path. The thought of losing her to the very man I despise ignites a fire within me. I'll do whatever it takes to ensure she stays in my world, away from his grasp.
