As a young girl, Ria managed to get over her parents' death through her favorite group's music and content which she considered her 'therapy'. She returns to the country five years later only to be faced with a blind date. Ria's initial reluctance to go on a blind date vanished immediately she saw her blind date partner. 'Good Lord, is it legal to be this handsome?' Her grandfather had set her up with the grandson of an old pal who looked decent and had a decent job. But it turned out to be Jay Rees, the CEO of Rees corporation. ........... For her, initially, it was his handsome facial features. For him, it was love at first sight.

Chapter 1 An Unexpected Loss

CHAPTER ONE - AN UNEXPECTED LOSS

Ria sat in her room, crouched over her desk, and focused on her sketchbook, her pencil moved across its pages. She was a girl whose world revolved around her art. It was her favorite thing to do besides listening to music.

Suddenly, she heard the loud ring of the house phone operating through the peaceful silence. Ria flinched out of shock, her pencil slipping and leaving a long, dark line across her sketch. She frowned, annoyed at the interruption. The phone rang again, its sound echoing through the house and reaching her ears loudly as the doors to her room were wide open.

Ria sighed, pushing her chair back and making her way downstairs. She wondered why no one answered the phone then she remembered that the butler and maids were given a day off. Her parents were out for the evening, leaving her alone with the old man who should be sleeping by this time or resting in his room.

She picked up the phone on the third ring, "Hello, Zevon residence."

The voice on the other end was filled with a great sense of urgency which made Ria scared and filled with terror. She listened to the person on the other end talk, her hand gripped the phone tighter with each word he said, and she became scared. The sketchbook, the comfort she had, the peaceful evening, everything faded into the background.

Her parents... there had been an accident.

Ria felt her knees go weak, the phone slipping from her hand. She sank to the floor, her mind distorted with thoughts and emotions. Her loving and peaceful world had just shattered.

"Ria?" The voice of her grandfather broke through her thoughts. The ringing of the phone must have woken him up and made him come out of his room. He looked at Ria, his face full of concern. He picked up the good phone which had slipped from Ria's hand and listened to the voice speak. He hung up the phone after listening, his heart was now filled with grief.

"Grandpa..." Ria looked up at him, her eyes filled with tears.

He pulled her into his arms, holding her tight. His voice was choked and sorrowful as he whispered to her ears, "It's okay, sweetheart. It's okay."

The old grandfather clock chimed, marking the beginning of her sorrows. Ria was no longer just a teenager engrossed in her art and showered with love from her parents. She was now a girl with her grandfather as her only family.

She was only seventeen, in her last year of high school. Her parents had shown her a lot of love and care, they scored her a lot.

Before they had left, she had seen them off, she did not expect it would be the last time she would see them.

With a heavy heart, she went up the stairs, her mind filled with the harsh reality of the sudden death of her parents. Her world had shattered at that moment and she felt like she was drowning in a sea of despair. She pushed open the door to her room, the familiar scent of rose and vanilla doing nothing to soothe her shattered spirit.

She lay on her bed, the soft fabric of her comforter doing little to comfort her. Tears streamed down her face, soaking the pillow beneath her. Her sobs echoed through the room, the only sound in the silent room.

Suddenly, she heard a soft melody echoing through the room. She lifted her head, her tear-streaked face reflecting confusion. The sound was coming from her phone, a notification from a music app. The new song from a newbie K-pop group she decided to follow had just been released.

Captivated, she wiped her tears and reached out for her phone. She played the song and the room was suddenly filled with a comforting melody. The song was a ballad, the lyrics speaking of loss, and pain, but also hope and resilience.

"Even when the rain falls, and the darkness swallows everything, remember that the dawn will come, and the sun will shine again," the lyrics echoed in her room, piercing through her shattered heart. The voice of the singer acting as a cushion to her sorrows.

She listened, and her tears subsided slowly as she immersed herself in the song. The lyrics resonated with her current situation, the words seemed to give her warmth, offering solace and comfort in her time of grief.

It reminded her of one of her favorite songs "Our dawn is hotter than day" by seventeen.

The song spoke of the anguish of losing a loved one, but it also spoke of the strength to move on with life despite it.

It was as if they were there with her, comforting her.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."
