Episode 1: THE GIRL HE NEVER FORGOT

Anny Winter stood outside Vale Group Headquarters, clutching the appointment letter in trembling hands.

Five years had passed since graduation.

Five years since she had last seen Kiaan Vale, the quite boy who always sat by the classroom window.

The boy who secretly smiled whenever she laughed. The boy he loved...... but never confessed to.

She had no idea that the shy classmate was now the youngest CEO in the country.

As the elevator opened, her heart nearly stopped.

There he was.

Tall, handsome, dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit, surrounded by the assistants and security. His cold grey eyes met hers for only a second before he walked away as if she were a complete stranger.

Anny forced a smile.

"Of course... Why would he remember me?"

Inside his office.....

Kiaan dismissed everyone.

He loosened his tie and stared at the security camera showing Anny waiting in the lobby.

His emotionless face slowly softened.

"So... you finally came back."

He opened the top drawer of his desk.

Inside lay an old blue ribbon.... the one Anny had unknowingly dropped during their final school festival.

He had kept it for five years.

"I never forgot you."

That evening, Anny received shocking news.

She had been promoted directly to become the CEO's personal assistant....

despite having no experience.

Everyone in the company whispered.

"How is that possible?"

"Did she bribe someone?"

"Does she know the CEO?"

Anny herself was confused.

But someone else wasn't happy.

A woman watched Anny from the shadows.

Her nails dug into her palm.

"So... She the girl kiaan has been waiting for."

A cold smile spread across her lips.

"Then she has to disappear."

As Anny left the office that night, she felt someone followed her.

The footsteps behind her grew louder.

She turned around. No one.

Just as she sighed in relief...

 A black-gloved hand suddenly covered mouth from behind.

She tried to scream.

Everything went dark.

After 2 hours,

 Anny slowly opened her eyes, her hands were tied . She was trapped inside an abandoned warehouse.

Three masked men stood nearby. "So she's the CEO's favourite girl?" One of them laughed.

"Let's see if he's willing to pay for her."

Tears filled Anny's eyes. "I don't even know the ceo..." Suddenly--

BANG! The warehouse door exploded open.

Dozens of security guards rushed inside. At the center stood Kiaan.

His cold eyes were filled with rage."Touch her..."  His voice was frighteningly calm

"... and none of you will leave alive ." The kidnappers panicked. One grabbed Anny and held knife to her neck.

"Stay back!" Kiaan slowly walked closer. "I'll give you ten seconds."

"nine.."

"eight.."

the man laughed.

"seven..."

"six.."

Anny was crying badly and was begging kiaan to save her, Kiaan was getting more angry after seeing her condition and was ready to kill anyone who had troubled her into this all .

"five..."

"four..."

Before kiaan reached to one ... suddenly a shadow dropped from the ceiling. And it was Ethan.

Within seconds the kidnappers were taken down.

 Kiaan rushed  to Anny. Without saying a word, he untied her hands. She looked at with tears in her eyes.

She asked him why did you come here to save me.
