Suddenly, Adam’s phone rang, pulling Claire’s attention briefly toward the sound. Adam, however, grabbed her chin and kissed her again, bringing her focus back to him. The phone stopped ringing after a moment, but soon it rang again. Adam groaned, realizing it was time to start his day. 

Claire smiled and caressed his face gently. “Take it,” she whispered, and Adam took her hand from his cheek, pressing a soft kiss to the inside of her palm. Claire giggled, adding, “It might be Amelia.” 

Amelia was Adam’s new PR manager, ‘a recommendation from Claire when she had left her job at Adam’s request, as part of their arrangement in the marriage. Amelia was Claire’s best friend, and she trusted her to handle Adam’s PR. With Adam’s upcoming movie, backed by a big–budget Hollywood studio, the need for a skilled PR manager was crucial to maintaining his image. 

Adam sighed and answered the call. As expected, it was Amelia, informing him that she was waiting downstairs. Reluctantly, he dressed and headed out to meet her. Claire slipped into her pajamas and followed him. 

When she reached the living area, she found Amelia briefing Adam about his PR campaign for the day. 

“Hi, Amelia. Would you like to have breakfast?” Claire asked, smiling warmly. 

“Morning, Claire. No, I’m alright, thank you,” Amelia replied, returning her smile before continuing her briefing. But now, she noticed Adam seemed distracted. His attention had shifted entirely to Claire, who had gone to the kitchen to give instructions to the chef about Adam’s diet menu for the day. 

With the demands of his upcoming movie, Adam had to maintain peak physical shape. The production house had appointed a dietician to monitor his calorie intake and a personal trainer to oversee his daily workouts. Claire ensured everything was in order, knowing how important this movie was for Adam. 

Claire always ensured to coordinate with both the dietician and the personal trainer according to Adam’s shooting schedule, making daily appointments as needed. Since the superstar often took his prescribed meals to the set, Claire made sure the chefs prepared and packed everything meticulously. She also gave detailed instructions to Adam’s assistant, Sammy, reminding him to ensure Adam ate on time. 

Meanwhile, Amelia rolled her eyes in mild exasperation as Adam continued to ignore her. She had called his name three times, but he was utterly captivated, watching Claire without so much as a blink. Despite her initial annoyance, Amelia couldn’t help but find it romantic. With a teasing smile, she raised her voice, “I think you should just go to the kitchen and watch her from up close. Don’t worry, if you don’t want to leave her for the campaign, I’ll postpone the program. 

Adam flushed, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly “No, it’s fine. I’ll be there after the shoot,” he muttered, maintaining his voice professional and indifferent. 

Amelia nodded with a smirk. “I’ll text you everything. Just take a moment to read it if you missed anything I explained,” she teased playfully. 

Adam gave a nonchalant nod, his expression remaining unchanged. 

“By the way, Claire looks even more beautiful today,” Amelia said, her tone deliberately mischievous as she watched Adam’s reaction. She wasn’t disappointed. His eyes instinctively shifted to Claire again, softening as he gazed at her. 

“What’s so different today, Adam? She’s glowing even more,” Amelia added with a giggle.

“Shut up, Amelia,” Adam frowned. He had no intention of discussing his personal life, especially the private moments he shared with Claire. To him, what happened between them in their bedroom was nobody’s business, and he wasn’t about to entertain such conversations. 

Just then, Claire returned with Adam’s morning detox drink, handing it to him with a gentle smile. It was part of his routine to start his day. 

“Claire, we have a PR campaign for Adam today, and we’ll need you in the evening,” Amelia mentioned casually. 

Claire’s gaze shifted to Adam, silently seeking his input before turning back to Amelia. 

“Okay, I’m ready. Tell me what I need to do,” Claire said enthusiastically. After all, this was part of their contract marriage, right?! 

“You and Adam will go out in the evening as a loving couple to the mall, and I’ll arrange for the media to capture the moment,” Amelia explained. 

Claire nodded, understanding the PR tactic. She wasn’t new to this game; after all, she’d worked as a PR manager herself for years. 

“Cool. I’ll be there. Just text me the location,” Claire agreed before turning to Adam, who still hadn’t taken his eyes off her. Blushing slightly, she gave him a soft smile and left for Adam’s bedroom. 

Once there, she got to work. Adam would be back any moment, and as part of her routine, she always chose his outfit for the day before he took his bath. 

Standing in front of Adam’s extensive wardrobe, Claire tapped her chin thoughtfully, lost in her musings about the perfect ensemble for him. She was so deep in thought that the presence behind her startled her
