That day, as I was leaving the library, a man in his forties stopped me, loudly calling out:
“Tricia, I’m your father.
“I owe a lot of money, and now people are after me. I urgently need someone to vouch for me.
“““Please, I’m begging you, help me out. You have to save me, daughter!”
I was caught off guard and couldn’t escape as the man firmly grasped my arm.

While I was still trying t
make sense of the
situation, I suddenly noticed Leo among the
crowd.
But he, a rich second–generation heir, had never come to the library before.
That’s when it hit me–this had to be Ceyda’s scheme, trying to stage a “hero saves the damsel” act to win my heart.

“They’ve investigated my background and specifically hired this man to create trouble. They learnt that I never met my father, so they faked someone.”
“They might also be trying to conduct a physical exam to see if I’m fit to bear children.”
“We need to be more careful from now on. Who
knows what other traps are waiting for
us?”
After the storm settled, the holidays arrived.
During the break, I managed to take on several part–time jobs, saving up some living expenses.
When school started again, Bruna invited Sally and me out to dinner, saying she had
