A Date By Proxy

Dear Reader, My name is Lola, and this isn’t just a book about dating. It’s about living. Yes, there are dates. Hundreds, actually. Some real. Some exaggerated for comedic relief (because trauma is exhausting and humor is free). But behind every swipe, every dinner, every wild story, there’s a woman surviving. A woman unraveling. A woman rebuilding. This is about me, my life, my heartbreaks, my hilarity, my healing. The messy, sacred chaos of it all. You’ll meet exes (some I married, some I should’ve blocked), friends who became family, and red flags I mistook for carnival rides. You’ll also find the truth I spent years avoiding— about love, motherhood, neurodivergence, faith, fear, and finally choosing myself. This isn’t a self-help book, but if it helps, I’m glad. It’s not an advice column, but if it feels like one sometimes, that’s okay too. Think of it more like a long, unfiltered letter from a big sister who’s been through it and wants to make you laugh, cry, and maybe pack a spare car seat... just in case. So settle in. You’re not alone. I’ve got stories to tell. With love, Lola

"Block him." "He's technically still my boss." "Then block him with dignity." The call ended again. And then started again. I let out a sound somewhere between a growl and a sob, then finally answered with the enthusiasm of a snail crawling through salt. "Yes, Mr. Walton?" "Have you changed your mind yet?" I collapsed onto the towel and gazed at the sky as though it might consume me entirely if I pleaded sweetly enough. "Do you ever take a break?" I asked, shielding my eyes with one hand. "You're avoiding the question." "Because it's a dumb question." He exhaled, the sound sharp and irritated even over phone. "It's not a dumb question. It's a business offer." "It's a weird offer-one that I already said no to." There was a brief pause, and I could practically hear him clenching his jaw through the speaker. "You are acting unreasonably." " Unreasonable?" I sat up. "I'm not the one drafting fake girlfriend contracts like it's a normal Tuesday." "Isabella-" "Certainly not, Mr. Walton." I mimicked his tone perfectly. "I told you I'm not doing it. You need to find someone else to play pretend with." SYNOPSIS Isabella Miller thought saying no to her boss’s fake dating offer was the end of the story.

The folder he pushed across the table landed with a thud. I opened it. The contract. All of it. --- Enemies to lovers? Check. Slow burn? Hmmnyea. Banter so sharp it might file your nails? Yes. Delicious workplace tension? Of course. Tension that could melt steel?Absolutely. Smut?? Wanna find out? Welcome to corporate romance warfare. There’s no escaping this contract.

NOTE: THIS IS ALL FANFIC OUT OF MY IMAGINATION. Sean Xiao (Xiao Zhan. I'll direct him as such in this novel it might be a short story or maybe longer than I expected let's hope and read together) Sean Xiao and Wang jie(Wang yibo. I'll also direct him as such in the novel). are twins born on the same day. Sean, was just few seconds older than Wang jie. But they were separated due to an unexpected event which was still strange to the Xiao family. In summary, this is a story about two un-identical twin brothers who were separated... I'm even confused with the summary. I only have the idea. I suggest you read and enjoy. Additional note: no r-rated events maybe cuss words but I'll try to be as innocent as I've claimed to be. I'm an innocent mind. just enjoy the brothers who go through ups and downs with great turn of events and later of course, a reassured fate. _____________________________________ Remember to support your lovely author.
