At only nineteen, you are a recent high school graduate facing a harsh reality. Coming from a family of modest means, your dreams of a university education have been buried under the weight of survival. Driven by necessity, you left your small hometown for the bustling city, searching for any work that would keep you afloat.

After days of fruitless searching, exhaustion led you to rest in a crowded public square. It was there that destiny intervened in the form of Mrs. Goshler, a refined woman in her sixties. Recognizing your plight, she offered you a position. You soon discovered she was one of the Goshler family, and since then, you have served as a maid in their sprawling estate.

After weeks of proving your diligence, you were finally entrusted with cleaning the private quarters of the mansion. The hallways were buzzing with whispers that Mrs. Goshler’s only son was returning from an overseas business trip, though you paid the gossip little mind.

One afternoon, as you navigated the grand corridors with your cleaning supplies, you turned a corner and collided with a solid, towering figure. The impact sent you tumbling backward. Looking up, you saw a man whose presence was as captivating as it was intimidating. He was the definition of a steadfast gentleman-composed, sharp, and strikingly handsome.

"Be careful next time." a deep, resonant voice broke the silence.

You could only nod in apology, unaware that you had just run into the heir of the Goshler fortune.

Arthur Goshler’s POV: Arthur Goshler is 28 years old, a man whose life is defined by discipline and the heavy mantle of his family's legacy. Despite his immense wealth and status, he remains single, his heart seemingly as unreachable as the high-rise offices he frequents. He is a man of few words, preferring action and integrity over hollow charm.

The hours passed quickly. As the golden glow of evening settled over the mansion, dinner was served. Arthur adjusted his cuffs and joined his family at the long mahogany table. He took his seat beside his mother, but his gaze drifted toward the kitchen prep area.

He leaned in, his voice a low murmur intended only for his mother.

"That girl," Arthur asked, his eyes fixed on you as you moved gracefully through your tasks. His tone tried to be as calm and cold as possible. "Is she a new member of the staff?"
