“Mr. Carter, your brother just called off his wedding. This means the will is still unclaimed, and has fallen right into your laps. Congratulations, sir,” my lawyer said into the phone after I answered the call and I instantly sat up, my eyes widened in utter shock.

At the end of the day, I ended up achieving my end goal! I literally couldn’t believe my ears right now.

This was the reason I played pretend boyfriend with Addison for five days, and despite not achieving this goal by the end of the five days, my goal still ended up coming to pass at the end of the day, and right now, I was certain I was the happiest person on earth right now.

Fred is also my IT guy. We went to school together and have been friends since.

Fred popped open a champagne and I laughed heartily as he poured us a glass each.

“Here’s to you winning and winning!” He yelled and as we clinked our glasses together, I felt grateful to have a friend as awesome as Fred.
