99 Rejections Later, She Found Out I Owned the Company

I secretly pulled every string to turn my girlfriend into the top sales champion in our company.

Yet, at her grand victory party, she turned down my marriage proposal for the ninety-ninth time.

All because the "one who got away"—a man who vanished years ago—sent her a text: Wherever you are is home. Let's start over.

Swallowing my pride, I pleaded with her, "Can't you just give me a fair chance?"

She snapped at me with cold impatience, "So what if we dated for a few years? We're legally married! There's a line, Julian, and he was here first!"

Legally married.
