Chapter 1

After five years of supporting my girlfriend’s acting career, she was in debt again.

The first time, I sold the house my mom left me to pay off her three hundred million.

The second time, I worked non-stop for a year, taking countless low-budget, terrible gigs. My fans ripped into me, calling me a sellout, a desperate guy chasing quick bucks. I paid off three billion for her.

The third time, I heard her faint sobs through the phone. I stood outside my billionaire dad’s mansion, hesitating whether to knock.

But that very night, I accidentally overheard her bragging to her friends in a private room.

“Scarlett really knows how to play the game. So many people would pay tens of millions just to have dinner with Liam Stone, and he’s willing to be her little puppy.”

“You’re telling me! So, Scarlett, how much debt are you planning to rack up this time?”

“Nearly a hundred billion. Otherwise, Liam would just pay it off too easily. Where’s the fun in that?”

I tore up the signed contract for degrading content and turned to knock on my billionaire dad’s mansion door.

“Dad, I’m ready to come back and take over the family business. I’ll marry Seraphina Sterling.”

“Good. The wedding is set for three days from now.”
