“Please don’t go, stay… Please,” he muttered, hugging her from behind.

She sniffed and wiped her tears then turned to him.

“Why should I stay? I heard you say it to her. You’ve been using me, are you blind? Can’t you see how much I love you!” She shouted at his face in tears, but he stayed quiet, looking stunned.

“Still have nothing to say? Fine…” She muttered and turned to leave, but he grabbed her hand.

With a swift movement, he turned her to him, and she crashed on his chest, their lips met immediately.

Her eyes widened.

“And cut!!” The director said.

The director began clapping happily, advancing to them.

“Excellent job done, guys! And you, Angelo, you’re a born actor!!” The director smiled.

Angelo smiled and ran his hand through his long hair, slowly going to the producer. The girl he kissed still stood on her spot, touching her lips while blushing foolishly.

It was all written in a script, but still, she couldn’t get over it. Playing a leading role with Angelo was like a life accomplishment for her.

“Thanks, man,” his angelic voice said.

Perfectly sculpted nose, plump sexy lips, beautiful eyes whose beauty is more glaring with his long hair that fell on his forehead, tall and athletic body… All that was the right words to describe Angelo.

The alarm he set on his phone began ringing, and he checked it. The first and only lectures he had today would be starting in 30 minutes.

“Gotta go now, man…” Angelo said and bumped fists with the director.

“Sure, catch you on Wednesday,” he muttered.

Angelo nodded and turned to the girl then winked sexily at her before heading to the dressing room to change. Being the only son to the wealthy Daniel Rodriguez, he had his private room.

“You’re back,” his personal manager muttered, making her gown look shorter as she brushed her hair with her hands too.

“Yep… Have a lecture by 9,” he muttered, unbuttoning his shirt.

“It must be stressful, attending to school work and your career. You must be really stressed out.” She muttered, making sure her breasts were standing out.

Angelo looked at her chest and then at her. She walked to him and slowly began caressing his chest, biting his lips sexily.

“Let me make you feel better,” she whispered to his ear.

Angelo smirked and grabbed her hand, pinning her against the wall. A gasp left her lips, and she instantly fell wet when his lips brushed against her neck, going upwards to her ears.

“How old are you?” he whispered.

“I’m… 30,” she blurted out with her eyes closed.

“You’re my uncle’s age mate, and he even has a son. I don’t do old outdated grandmas, I love it when the p*ssy is fresh and new, not loose holes like yours,” Angelo whispered.

“Huh?” Her eyes immediately flew open.

A knock suddenly came up.

“Did you hear that? It’s menopause knocking at your door. And a certain grandma is still single, why don’t you go and marry? Oh wait, I forgot that cows can’t get married,” Angelo smirked before carrying his things to leave.

He spanked her a*s, causing her to jolt up.

“You don’t even have a*s… Plank should be your middle name from now, see you on Wednesday, Miss Plank,” he muttered and left the room.

“Angelo!!!”

Chapter 2

The lecture hall was filled with students chattering and preparing for the class to begin. Angelo walked in with his usual charismatic aura, drawing the attention of many female students. His eyes scanned the room, and he spotted an empty seat next to a girl with curly brown hair and glasses.

He smoothly approached the seat and leaned against the desk, causing the girl to look up from her textbook. Her eyes widened as she recognized Angelo Rodriguez, the famous playboy of Sunnyside College.

“Mind if I take this seat?” Angelo flashed his signature smirk.

The girl stammered, “Uh, sure. Go ahead.”

As Angelo settled into the seat, he couldn’t help but notice the innocence in the girl’s eyes. She seemed different from the girls he was used to dealing with—no heavy makeup, no revealing clothes. Her simplicity intrigued him.

The professor entered the room, bringing an end to the whispers and discussions. Angelo half-listened to the lecture while occasionally glancing at the girl beside him. She diligently took notes, completely engrossed in the class.

After the lecture, Angelo decided to make a move. “Hey,” he said, leaning in, “I don’t think I caught your name.”

The girl looked up, surprised by the sudden attention. “Oh, I’m Harmony.”

“Harmony, huh? That’s a pretty name. I’m Angelo.” He extended his hand for a handshake.

Harmony hesitated for a moment before shaking his hand. “Nice to meet you.”

Angelo smirked, “The pleasure is all mine, Harmony.”

As they walked out of the lecture hall together, Angelo couldn’t help but wonder how someone like Harmony ended up at Sunnyside College. Little did he know that their worlds were about to collide in ways they never expected.

Chapter 3

Harmony navigated the bustling campus, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the lively atmosphere of Sunnyside College. Angelo walked beside her, his casual swagger in stark contrast to her reserved demeanor.

“So, Harmony, what brings you to Sunnyside College?” Angelo asked, genuinely curious.

Harmony adjusted her backpack strap, “I got adopted by a wonderful family, and they live nearby. They thought Sunnyside would be a good fit for me.”

Angelo raised an eyebrow, “Adopted, huh? Must be nice.”

Harmony nodded, “It is. I’m really grateful for everything.”

As they continued chatting, Angelo couldn’t shake off the feeling that Harmony was different from the girls he usually surrounded himself with. There was a purity about her that intrigued him.

Meanwhile, whispers and stares followed them as they walked through the campus. Angelo was used to attention, but Harmony seemed oblivious to it.

They reached the college courtyard, where students were gathered in small groups. Angelo spotted his friends, a bunch of equally charismatic and charming individuals.

“Hey, Angelo!” a guy called out.

Angelo waved in response and turned to Harmony, “I’ve got to go meet my friends. You want to join?”

Harmony hesitated but decided, “Sure, why not?”

As they approached the group, Angelo’s friends eyed Harmony with curiosity. Angelo introduced her, and the group greeted her warmly. Little did Harmony know that stepping into Angelo’s world would lead her down a path of secrets, drama, and a connection she never anticipated.

Chapter 4

The sun dipped below the horizon as Angelo and Harmony found themselves at a popular local cafe near the college. The atmosphere was cozy, with soft music playing in the background and dim lights casting a warm glow.

They sat across from each other at a small table, sipping on their drinks. Angelo couldn’t help but admire Harmony’s genuine smile and the way her eyes lit up when she talked about her passions.

“So, Angelo, what’s your story?” Harmony asked, genuinely curious.

Angelo leaned back in his chair, a hint of mystery in his eyes. “Well, I come from a wealthy family. My parents own a conglomerate, and I’m the only child.”

Harmony raised an eyebrow, “Must be nice, having everything you want.”

Angelo chuckled, “You’d think so, but it comes with its own set of problems. People always wanting something from you, you know?”

Harmony nodded in understanding, “I can imagine.”

As they continued their conversation, Angelo couldn’t help but feel a strange connection to Harmony. She was refreshingly different from the people in his world, and he found himself enjoying her company.

Meanwhile, unbeknownst to them, a group of girls from Sunnyside College observed the two from a distance, whispering and giggling among themselves. Angelo was known for his playboy reputation, and seeing him with someone like Harmony sparked their curiosity.

The cafe’s ambiance grew livelier as the evening progressed. Angelo and Harmony shared stories, laughter, and a growing connection that neither of them expected.

Little did they know, their worlds were on the verge of colliding in ways that would change the course of their lives.

Chapter 5

As the weeks passed, Angelo and Harmony’s friendship blossomed. They spent time together, sharing their dreams, fears, and the intricacies of their lives. Despite Angelo’s playboy image, he found comfort in Harmony’s presence, and she, in turn, discovered a side of him that few knew existed.

One afternoon, Angelo invited Harmony to the Rodriguez mansion. The grandeur of the estate left her in awe, and Angelo took pleasure in showing her around.

“Wow, this place is incredible,” Harmony exclaimed, marveling at the opulence.

Angelo grinned, “Yeah, it’s home. But you know, it can get a bit lonely with just me and the staff.”

Harmony glanced at him, sensing a hint of vulnerability behind his confident demeanor. “Lonely? Even with all this?”

Angelo nodded, “Loneliness doesn’t care about wealth. It’s about connection, or the lack of it.”

As they strolled through the mansion, Angelo opened up about his parents’ expectations, the pressure of carrying on the family legacy, and the void he felt despite the luxurious surroundings.

Harmony listened attentively, offering a sympathetic ear. In that moment, Angelo felt a sense of relief, realizing that he could be himself around her without the weight of expectations.

Later that evening, they sat by the mansion’s pool, the moon casting a gentle glow on the water. Angelo’s phone buzzed with a message, and he sighed.

“Duty calls. I have to go,” Angelo said, a hint of regret in his voice.

Harmony smiled, “It’s okay. Duty is important.”

As Angelo left, Harmony couldn’t shake off the feeling that their connection ran deeper than either of them realized. Little did she know that secrets and challenges awaited, testing the bond they had formed.

Chapter 6

The college campus buzzed with excitement as the annual Sunnyside College Masquerade Ball approached. Angelo, being the charming socialite he was, had already received numerous invitations.

One day, as Harmony sat in the library, engrossed in her studies, a mysterious note appeared on her desk. “You are invited to the Masquerade Ball. Don’t miss the chance to dance under the stars. -A Secret Admirer.”

Confused and intrigued, Harmony looked around, trying to figure out who could have sent the note. The idea of attending the ball ignited a spark of excitement within her.

Meanwhile, Angelo was dealing with his own set of invitations and admirers. His reputation as a playboy made him a sought-after partner for the ball. Yet, amidst the attention, he couldn’t shake off the thought of inviting someone unexpected.

That evening, Angelo approached Harmony in the college courtyard, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “Harmony, care to be my date for the Masquerade Ball?”

Harmony blushed, surprised by the invitation. “Me? Why would you ask me?”

Angelo smirked, “Why not? It’s a masquerade, and I have a feeling it’ll be more interesting with you by my side.”

Despite her initial hesitation, Harmony agreed. They decided to keep their masquerade identities a secret, adding an element of mystery to the night.

As the night of the Masquerade Ball approached, Angelo and Harmony found themselves anticipating an evening that would not only be enchanting but also full of surprises.

Chapter 7

The night of the Sunnyside College Masquerade Ball had arrived, and the campus was transformed into a magical realm of twinkling lights, elegant masks, and flowing gowns.

Angelo, dressed in a tailored suit, awaited Harmony at the entrance of the ballroom. When she arrived, he couldn’t help but admire her beauty. The gown she wore accentuated her features, and the mask added an air of mystery.

“Wow, Harmony. You look stunning,” Angelo complimented, offering her his arm.

Harmony blushed, “Thank you, Angelo. You look quite dashing yourself.”

They entered the ballroom, and the enchanting atmosphere enveloped them. The dance floor was filled with masked couples swaying to the music. Angelo and Harmony joined the dance, moving in perfect harmony.

As they twirled and danced, the chemistry between them became undeniable. Angelo couldn’t ignore the genuine connection he felt with Harmony, and she, in turn, found herself captivated by the charm and vulnerability he revealed.

Amidst the festivities, a mysterious figure watched Angelo and Harmony from the shadows. Hidden behind a mask, the observer’s eyes gleamed with a mix of curiosity and intrigue.

The night unfolded with laughter, dancing, and stolen glances. Angelo and Harmony reveled in the magic of the moment, oblivious to the secrets that lurked in the shadows.

Little did they know, the Masquerade Ball would set off a chain of events that would challenge their newfound connection and unravel the mysteries that bound them together.

Chapter 8

The day after the Masquerade Ball, Angelo and Harmony found themselves caught in a whirlwind of rumors and speculations. The campus was buzzing with whispers about their mysterious connection and the undeniable chemistry witnessed at the ball.

Angelo, used to being the center of attention, navigated through the curious glances and sly smiles with his usual charm. Harmony, on the other hand, felt a mix of excitement and apprehension about the newfound attention.

As they sat together in the college courtyard, Angelo leaned in with a playful smirk, “Looks like we’ve become the talk of the town.”

Harmony chuckled nervously, “I didn’t expect this much attention.”

Angelo reassured her, “Don’t worry. Let them talk. We know the truth, and that’s all that matters.”

Despite his confident words, Angelo couldn’t shake off the feeling that the Masquerade Ball had set something into motion—something that would unravel the carefully crafted facades they both wore.

Meanwhile, a mysterious figure continued to observe them from a distance. The watcher’s presence added an eerie undercurrent to the unfolding drama.

As days passed, Angelo and Harmony’s bond deepened. They spent more time together, exploring the complexities of their lives. Angelo, usually guarded about his emotions, found himself opening up to Harmony in ways he never thought possible.

However, the peace was short-lived as a series of events unfolded, bringing forth the challenges they would have to face together. Little did they know that secrets from their pasts were about to surface, threatening to shatter the delicate connection they had built.

Chapter 9

One day, as Angelo and Harmony enjoyed a quiet moment in the college garden, an unexpected visitor appeared. It was Angelo’s personal manager, the same woman who had tried to seduce him before.

“Angelo, we need to talk,” she said, her expression serious.

Harmony felt a sense of unease as the atmosphere shifted. Angelo nodded, signaling for her to stay.

“What is it?” Angelo asked, a hint of irritation in his voice.

The manager glanced at Harmony before speaking, “Your parents are pressuring you to get engaged. They want to secure the family legacy, and they’ve chosen a suitable match for you.”

Angelo’s jaw clenched, “Engaged? I never agreed to that. I won’t let them dictate my life.”

The manager sighed, “Angelo, you know how important the family legacy is. Think about it. This could benefit both you and the company.”

Harmony observed the tension between Angelo and his manager, realizing the weight of the expectations placed on him.

As Angelo struggled with his emotions, another revelation unfolded. Harmony received a mysterious letter, revealing details about her past that she never knew existed. Secrets about her adoption, her birth parents, and a connection to the Rodriguez family emerged.

Shocked and confused, Harmony confronted Angelo, seeking answers. Little did they know, the challenges they faced were intertwined, and their connection would be put to the ultimate test.

Chapter 10

In the midst of revelations and conflicting emotions, Angelo and Harmony found themselves at a crossroads. The pressure from Angelo’s family and the newfound truths about Harmony’s past created a storm that threatened to tear them apart.

Angelo, torn between familial expectations and his growing feelings for Harmony, struggled to find a balance. Harmony, grappling with the shock of her true identity, sought solace in Angelo’s presence.

As they faced the challenges together, Angelo made a bold decision. He confronted his parents, refusing to adhere to their plans for his engagement. The confrontation was intense, with emotions running high, but Angelo stood firm in his resolve.

Meanwhile, Harmony delved deeper into the mysteries surrounding her adoption. The connection between her past and the Rodriguez family became clearer, unveiling a complex web of relationships and secrets.

As they navigated the storm together, Angelo and Harmony discovered the strength of their bond. Love, trust, and understanding became the pillars that held them steady amidst the chaos.

The mysterious figure that had been observing them revealed themselves—someone with a vested interest in Angelo and Harmony’s intertwined destinies. The watcher’s presence added a layer of suspense to the unfolding drama.
