When colorful, chaotic event planner Emerald Beckett is called into a last-minute meeting with the company's icy CFO, she expects a quick meeting-not a power struggle. Kaiser Rowe is all sharp suits, rigid routines, and an unhealthy obsession with spreadsheets. He's too beige for her world of color. Emerald is glitter, spontaneity, and a walking contradiction to everything he stands for.

They're tasked with planning a massive corporate event together. She's determined to bring the fun. He's determined to control the budget. The result? Sparks, too much snark, and a coffee spill that starts it all.

The time finally comes where he sets his eyes on someone and decided the girl to be 'the one' and he is willing to do anything to make her as his. *** "Look at me," I urged. "No, I don't want to." She refused in a low tone. "I said look at me," I repeated in an authoritative voice. Slowly, she lifted her head and stared deep inside my eyes. "Tell me the reason, Caramel. I want everything back to normal between us." I tried to persuade her again. "I will do anything to make everything back to normal like how we used to be. I promise." "You really will do anything?" "Yes, I will." "Let me move out from the house. I don't want to stay with you anymore." Her words strike me like a lightning. I narrowed my eyes, finding the truth in her request. "No, that won't do," I shook my head in disagreement. "You said you will do anything just now." She exclaimed. "Okay, if that's what you want." *The picture doesn't belong to me, credit to the original owner.

He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.
Love Spilled Like Coffee  by lunarawrites

Damian Blackwood is a man who has everything-wealth, power, and an unshakable reputation as a ruthless CEO. Love? He never believed in it. To him, emotions were distractions, and relationships were nothing more than business transactions. But everything changes one morning when he accidentally spills coffee on a stranger at a café. Ella Carter, with her soft eyes and warm smile, isn't like the people he's used to. She doesn't fawn over his status or try to impress him. Instead, she simply cleans the mess, gives him a polite nod, and walks away-leaving him utterly captivated. For fifteen days, Damian returns to the café at the same time, just to see her from afar. He doesn't know why. He doesn't even know her name. But something about her makes his carefully controlled world feel unsteady. Then fate takes control. Ella walks into Blackwood Enterprises for an interview, only to realize the man from the café-the one who had been haunting her thoughts-is her new boss. Damian is thrilled but keeps his emotions locked away, offering her the job with a professional mask. As they spend more time together, the tension between them grows. Damian finds himself breaking his own rules, drawn to the warmth and kindness Ella brings into his cold, calculated world. Ella, in turn, sees glimpses of the man beneath the powerful CEO-one who's afraid to love, but even more afraid of losing her. Will Damian finally let go of his fears and embrace the love he never believed in? Or will his hesitation cost him the one thing he never knew he needed? A heartfelt, slow-burn romance about fate, unexpected love, and the power of simple moments that change everything.
