Imagine living an ordinary life clocking in and out at a fashion magazine, balancing work with the joys and challenges of single motherhood, and finding solace in the familiar rhythm of daily life. Now, visualize that very ordinary existence being turned upside down overnight by the arrival of a heartthrob A-list superstar. This astonishing tale unfolds in the life of Olivia Maple, an ordinary woman who suddenly finds herself in the midst of a story that seems plucked from the pages of a fairytale. The story begins with a simple sound, a series of firm knocks at Olivia’s door. An air of intrigue envelops the moment as she peers through the peephole, spotting striking figures in immaculate black suits, akin to something straight out of a high-octane movie. Yet, it isn't the slightly intimidating but polished strangers that leave Olivia breathless; it’s the figure stepping out from their sleek vehicle, a man adored by millions, the dashing Kurt Collins. As Olivia reluctantly welcomes him into her humble abode, her heart races, uncertain yet drawn to the very man who has captivated the dreams of countless women around the globe. In an unexpected twist that surpasses the wildest of fantasies, Kurt drops to one knee, delivering a romantic proposal that transforms the mundane into the extraordinary. Surrounded by the humdrum of her life, the moment feels surreal, an enchanting scene orchestrated by fate. However, Olivia is no naïve damsel waiting for salvation; she’s a grounded individual, acutely aware of her circumstances. A hardworking single mother, she wrestles with bewilderment during the whirlwind. How could someone like Kurt Collins, with his chiseled jawline and captivating charm, see her as an everyday woman with a vibrant little boy? Yet, when Kurt speaks, his words resonate with a sincerity that breaks through her fog of confusion: "Let me take care of you and our son." At that moment, time seemed to stand still as memories flooded her mind: a glimmering holiday party, laughter ringing in the air, and a tad too much merriment leading to an unexpected turn of events. As she contemplates the surreal nature of his proposal, her thoughts pivot to her son, a blossoming light of innocence in her life. She reflects on the joyful, carefree moments filled with giggles and snuggles, understanding now that there’s a chance for a fresh start and a burgeoning family bond. Let's take a trip down memory lane a few years back, during the festive season of a Christmas party hosted by a well-known magazine company. In the midst of the celebration, we find Olivia Maple, a seemingly ordinary employee, reveling in her good fortune. This particular year has been nothing short of a blessing for her: not only has she successfully landed a position at her dream company, but she has also received praise from her colleagues for her hard work and dedication. To top it all off, she has just won the company raffle, an unexpected stroke of luck that has left her feeling on top of the world. As Olivia raises her glass, laughter spilling from her lips, she is approached by her office mate, Alexander. "Don't overdo it, Ms. Maple," he said with a note of concern lacing his voice. His expression is one of genuine care, a small frown creasing his brow as he watches her celebrating a bit too zealously. Olivia, unfazed by his warning, beams at him with a carefree smile. "It's okay! I won the raffle, you know! I'm going to stay in one of the most expensive rooms at that famous hotel right down the street! All I have to do is hop on the elevator and take a short walk, and I’ll be in my luxurious suite!" Her voice is laced with excitement, and her eyes sparkle with the thrill of her triumph. Alexander, recognizing that Olivia's exuberance is a product of her tipsy state, offers to escort her to her room for safety. However, before he can finish his sentence, Olivia's best friend, Anna, steps in. "Don't worry, Alex, I've got this! I'll take her to her room," she states firmly yet kindly, assuring him he needn’t fret. “And see, Anna is always there for me! Hahaha!” Olivia exclaims, her laughter ringing out like a melody, her gratefulness evident in her tone. As Anna leads the way, they both navigate through the vibrant festivities of the party before heading towards the elevator. Once inside, Olivia's gaze is captivated by the breathtaking views outside the glass panels. The twinkling city lights sway beneath them, casting a magical glow in the air that elevates her spirits even further. Finally, they arrive at the top floor of the building, where the premium suites await. Both friends are still trying to wrap their heads around the fact that Olivia will be staying in such opulent accommodation for the night. After a short walk down the plush corridor, they arrive at the door of Olivia’s luxurious suite, her prize from the raffle. Once inside, Anna quickly assesses that Olivia is in need of some care. Gently, she helps Olivia onto the plush bed, ensuring her comfort as she removes her party clothes. Carefully, she wraps her friend in a soft robe, tucking a cozy comforter around her to keep her warm and comfortable. With a smile, Anna stepped back, admiring her work for a brief moment. Before leaving, Anna grabs a notepad and scribbles a quick note for Olivia, letting her know that she cannot stay in the room with her because she has prior plans with her boyfriend. With a sigh and a promise to check in on her later, Anna slips out of the suite, leaving Olivia nestled comfortably in bed, blissfully unaware of her surroundings as she begins to drift off into a peaceful slumber. Meanwhile, in the luxurious suite, the peaceful atmosphere was abruptly interrupted when the door swung open, completely unaware of the sleeping occupant within. Olivia, nestled snugly and deeply asleep, remained oblivious to the intrusion. Little did she know that this unexpected opening of her room would lead to a stunning and shocking revelation. When she eventually stirred from her slumber, Olivia was enveloped in confusion and disorientation. Her heart raced as she realized she was completely naked, the sheets twisted around her. Beside her lay a man, peacefully sleeping, his presence only adding to her bewilderment. Her mind raced with questions, but most of all, she felt a deep sense of amnesia regarding how she ended up in this strange situation. Panic flickered in her chest, and she hurriedly pulled on her clothes, her eyes darting anxiously around the room. She didn’t dare to take a second glance at the man beside her who reeked of familiarity yet remained a complete stranger in her memory. Desperate to escape, Olivia quickly exited the suite, her breaths coming in quick gasps as she grappled with the forgotten events of the night. As she hastily made her way down the hotel corridor, her mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, frantically attempting to piece together the fragments of what had transpired during her bewildering night. When she finally confronted the man, standing face-to-face, she could barely contain the mixture of shock and disbelief bubbling inside her. “So you’re the one who barged into my room and did something to me?” she blurted out, her voice tinged with incredulity. The man standing before her was none other than Kurt, the celebrity crush she had admired from afar, now transformed into the father of her child. The realization seeped in slowly, intensifying her emotional turmoil. “Yeah, and I’m really sorry for that. I was drunk and didn’t read the room number right,” Kurt admitted, his eyes filled with a blend of regret and sincerity. “Wait a minute! Even if you read the room number wrong, how did you get in?” Olivia pressed, her brow furrowing in confusion. Kurt sighed, running a hand through his tousled hair. “Well, my family owns that hotel, so I have a special card that opens every suite. It’s meant to be convenient for me. I just check the app to see what’s available, and I can go in whenever I want. But this time, I messed up because I was intoxicated, and I genuinely apologize for that,” he explained, his tone earnest and apologetic. “Wait, wait, wait! Family? What are you saying? Sir, just like you said, it was a mistake. You don’t have to force yourself into this situation. I promise I won’t say anything to the public.” Olivia declared, gesturing with her pinky finger in a promise, desperately hoping to wrap up the whole ordeal. “You don’t understand,” Kurt interjected, shaking his head. “That’s not even my concern. Yes, entering the wrong room was a mistake, but what happened between us is a gift. For the record, I’ve been dreaming about you all this time, even before I knew if you were real. Now that I’ve finally found you, I’m not going to let you go. In fact, let’s get married,” he said, his voice filled with determination as he knelt before her, vulnerable and earnest, waiting for her response. The gravity of his words hung in the air, mixing with the shock and disbelief that Olivia had already been grappling with. With her heart racing, she was thrown into a whirlwind of emotions, unsure of where this unexpected twist of fate would lead them.
