Title Daydream
By: E.Bennett
HR intern Mayu Lateef is trying to pave her own way in life. When her parents make it clear that they have no intention of granting her freedom without a husband, she makes a deal with her boss, who is relentless in romancing her until she submits to him. CEO Alexander Bauman has sworn off relationships. He can make and break lives with less than a phone call. Enter Mayu. Unafraid of his steely exterior, she reminds him of the man he wanted to be in life. In return, he schemes his way into her house, threatening to love her forever, much to her annoyance. Alexander’s most vulnerable secret is revealed, as is Mayu’s shame about her family's expectations around marriage. They meet under awkward circumstances, and they promise to be perfect strangers. But with stolen glances and longing for love and freedom, they find that despite obvious differences and shortcomings, they complement and fulfil each other in the most beautiful of ways.
