The Billionaire's Five-Year Poor-Boy Cosplay

For five years, Maya has believed her boyfriend Liam is a struggling young man who barely makes a few grand a month. She has saved every penny, even emptying her account for a down payment on what she hopes will be their marital home, while he keeps bringing up marriage.

Then a chance errand to the Apex Club changes everything. Through a half-open door, Maya overhears Liam's friends mocking his "broke boyfriend" cosplay and asking when he will finally pull the plug. The truth is that Liam Vance is a billionaire heir, and he plans to let "Liam" simply vanish on the day of his engagement to someone from the Sterling family.

Maya does not scream or confront him. She quietly waits, and when his engagement day arrives, she is already on a flight across the ocean. The untouchable young master of the Vance family backs out of his engagement and races to an empty rental apartment, only to lose his mind when he finds her gone.
