Kavya Aggarwal is on the brink of the promotion she has worked years to earn, until a sudden corporate takeover threatens to erase everything. AG Tech's arrival brings chaos, layoffs, and the one man she never wanted to see again: Arjun Grewal, the heir who once broke her.

To survive the office politics and protect her future, Kavya agrees to a risky solution that begins as a joke and becomes a strategy. Abhinav Shukla, the brilliant and infuriatingly calm IT consultant who has known her since childhood, steps in as her fake boyfriend for the company gala. The arrangement is supposed to fix optics, nothing more.

But late night rooftop planning turns into real conversations. Small kindnesses feel like rescue, and the lines between pretend and possibility begin to blur in ways neither of them expected.

As merger memos tighten around the company and old wounds resurface with Arjun's return, Kavya and Abhinav find themselves caught between corporate warfare and a connection that feels dangerously real. When audits slash teams and the spotlight burns hottest, they must decide whether their staged romance can survive the truth or whether the merger will claim more than just careers.

A slow burn corporate romance about ambition, trust, and the unexpected places where love takes root.
