At university, Chris is just another student—quiet, reserved, and seemingly ordinary. But behind the scenes, he’s the heir to a hidden fortune, a secret he guards fiercely.

Then there’s Skylar—a girl born into wealth, now watching her privileged world crumble as her family faces financial ruin. When she crosses paths with Chris, an unexpected connection sparks between them.

Skylar falls for him, believing he’s just a regular guy. But when her family pressures her to seek a richer suitor, Chris finds himself at a crossroads—should he reveal his true identity to fight for their love, or let her go to protect his secret?

In a world where love and wealth collide, can their relationship survive the truth?

Masked Affluence

Chris leaned forward, resting his elbows on the sleek, polished desk. His expression was unreadable, but the weight in his words was undeniable.

Ethan nodded, fingers moving swiftly over his tablet. "Already on it."

Minutes passed in silence, save for the soft clicking of keys. Then, Ethan's smirk widened as he turned the screen toward Chris.

Chris glanced at the name on the screen.

A trusted executive in Wren's company. Loyal on the surface. But beneath that? A snake.

"He's been feeding information to an outside party," Ethan explained. "The moment Titan was hired, Hensley moved large sums of money through multiple offshore accounts. This guy isn't just betraying Wren—he's the one who set him up."

"Send it to Wren," he ordered. "Anonymous delivery. Make sure the proof is airtight."

Ethan grinned. "By the time he opens it, he'll be too busy handling his own internal war."

Wren Lancaster was about to learn the hard way—disloyalty always came from within.

Wren sat in his office, tension lining his features as he reviewed the reports on Titan Holdings' moves. Something didn't add up. Someone had pushed Titan to move against him at the worst possible time.

The screen filled with financial records, encrypted emails, transaction logs. And at the center of it all—Arthur Hensley.

A slow, dangerous realization settled in.

His own executive had betrayed him.

Wren's grip on his phone tightened.

He stood abruptly, eyes burning with fury.

Ethan watched the security feed as Wren's building erupted into chaos. Guards rushing. Executives whispering. And at the center of it all? A war unfolding from within.

Ethan smirked. "He took the bait."

Chris remained calm, but his next words were sharp.

Ethan nodded. "I'll deploy our teams. We'll hit his weak points while he's distracted."

Chris's expression didn't change, but there was something cold in his gaze.

Wren Lancaster had spent years climbing to power.
