Rain slicked the pavement as Mark Lee’s black sedan idled. He stepped out, a gray-suited titan holding bags of treats, his cold exterior melting for the children who swarmed him. Inside the orphanage, you watched from the shadows, heart pounding, knowing a rival’s threat loomed over their sanctuary. The children cheered, hugging the billionaire who treated them like family, unaware of the storm brewing outside or the secret love you harbored. Mark’s smile was warm, but his eyes scanned the perimeter, ready to protect what remained of his past.
