Don't be So Proud - Chapter 5.2 — The Stirring of His and Her Heart

They say meeting your soulmate is destiny, a beautiful collision of two worlds meant to be together....But why did my “fated encounter” have to be a head-on collision with Cassidy Valentine, the most hostile, entitled, and terrifying girl at Hartwell Academy? And why did it involve ruining her limited-edition blazer with cheap bodega coffee?I'm Isaiah Angelo. I run on three hours of sleep, instant caffeine, and the desperate need to secure a future for my little sister. I don't have time for drama. I definitely don't have time for romance.So, naturally, the universe decided to play a cruel joke.I didn't just make an enemy of one rich girl. I stumbled into the lives of four.The Valentine Quadruplets. Identical faces, four distinct flavors of trouble.Now, I’ve been hired as their live-in personal assistant. I’m trapped in a mansion with the four most desirable—and impossible—girls in the city.Cassidy, the “Problem Child” who has sworn to make my life a living hell.Harlow, the overly affectionate airhead who thinks snacks solve all emotional trauma.Vivienne, the ice-cold perfectionist who wants to micromanage my breathing.Sabrina, the silent observer who looks at me like I’m a puzzle she’s dying to solve.The pay is life-changing. The job is suicide.Can I keep my scholarship, raise my sister, and manage the chaos of the Valentine household without losing my mind?I have a mountain of debt, a schedule from hell, and four billionaire heiresses who suddenly seem very interested in the “scholarship boy.”This isn't a job.This is a survival horror game wrapped in silk sheets.WHAT TO EXPECT:- Ecchi Situations: The Valentines have zero concept of personal space, and the “accidents” are frequent, spicy, and very visual.- Harem Romance: Four identical sisters, one tired protagonist. The competition is fierce, the tension is high, and the jealousy is real.- Competent Protagonist: Isaiah is smart, hardworking, and sharp-tongued. He isn't dense; he's just too exhausted to deal with their thirst.- Class Gap Dynamics: A gritty look at the difference between the struggling working class and the absurdly wealthy elite.- Heartwarming Family Moments: Because behind the fanservice and comedy, Isaiah is doing it all for his little sister.

#The thirty-ninth time embarked on the journey of attacking the Lord God#

——”The Lord God is like a flower on a high mountain, and it can only be seen from a distance.”

The soft, waxy and clean women’s clothing boss gently tugged at the corner of her clothes, “Sister, I can’t sleep without you.”

——”The Lord God will always be high in my heart.”

The sickly and beautiful prince said softly and lazily, “If you don’t marry me, choose the one you like with these handcuffs and shackles.”

——”In short, the heart of the Lord God is pure and flawless!”

The fox demon boy slightly curled the corners of his lips, his nine tails curled slightly, and hooked up softly: “I will treat you very well, think about it?”

“…………”

It’s all small scenes, don’t panic! ⊙﹏⊙∥
