Fake Hearts On Ice
Lila only wanted to fit in for this one night and this one party. So she had one fake boyfriend to keep her from feeling invisible in a sea of confident smiles and perfect couples. It was supposed to be simple until her fake date ditched her under the blinding strobe lights, leaving her stranded and humiliated in the middle of the hockey team’s Freshers Welcome Party.
But humiliation took an unexpected turn when Ethan, her best friend’s brother, and worse, her brother’s best friend stepped in to save her. That moment should have been the start of something new. Instead, it became the beginning of everything she never saw coming.
Because while her heart recognized something in his eyes, his stayed shuttered, cold and unreachable. And just when she thought she was ready to forget, the fake boyfriend returns, this time, asking for something real.
Between two hearts that shouldn’t collide and a past that refuses to stay buried, Lila must choose: follow the safety of what she knows, or risk everything for what she can’t seem to let go of?

Chapter: Chapter 183 Lila's PovA smile nearly fell from my lips when his eyes dropped. Did he really think I'm going to reject him? Hell no. “So, are you going to give up if I say no?” I asked again. He looked up and stared straight in my eyes; that gaze alone is enough to melt my frozen heart. He shook his head. “No, I won't. I don't mind how long it takes for you to forgive me, but I will keep trying my best.” He grabbed my hand and placed it on his chest, where I could feel his heart slamming hard against his chest. “I will wait for you for life if I have to, because this heart is capable of beating for you alone.”My eyes were already filled with tears before he finished his words. The emotions that I had been holding in all this time finally took over, and I went on my toes, and I slammed my limbs on his. He was surprised at first and didn't kiss back, but when it finally registered in his head, he grabbed the back of my neck and deepened the kiss. His second hand went behind me and pulled me closer to him b

Chapter: Chapter 182 Ethan’s PovThe words dropped from my mouth before I could stop myself. I couldn't bring myself to look at Lila because I don't know the expression I will see on her face. I walked out of the place until we reached a silent place. Lila touched my arm slightly. “You can put me down now.” She mumbled. I dropped her gently on the ground and supported her with my hands for her to stand well. “Why will you do that? Don't you know how dangerous it is?” Mason turned to Lila immediately her feet touched the ground. She pouted. “I can't just wait and do nothing when I already found a solution.” She said. “Nothing happened, and the problem is solved; you don't have to scold her.” I said to Mason. He turned to me swiftly and hit my chest. “Who gave you the fucking right to tell me how to talk to my sister?” His jaw clenched. “Mason…” Ava held him back. “What the heck are you doing?” She faced him.“Stay out of this; this is not your place to step in.” He snapped at Ava. Ava scoffed." And whose place

Chapter: Chapter 181 Lila's PovI ran out of the cafeteria immediately after Ava showed me what was trending online earlier. I couldn't believe my eyes. I would have thought I was drugged and the video was shot when I was not in my right mind if only I had met myself in an unfamiliar place recently, but I didn't. I locked the door immediately I got to the room, not minding Ava that was coming behind me. I sat on the bed breathing heavily, expecting Ava to start banging the door, but nothing happened. My hand shook as I picked up my phone and entered the website where the video is trending, and I clicked on one and played it. “This is not me.” I muttered with tears in my eyes.I turned the phone on the bed, unable to watch it anymore. I burst into tears. “Why, why would he do this to me? What did I ever do wrong?" I lamented.I shook my head. “No, I won't just sit here and cry my eyes out.” I muttered and wiped my eyes clean. Me crying is what Jake wants, and I won't give him that. I picked up my phone again and

Chapter: Chapter 180 Ethan’s Pov“Just hack the site and delete everything.” I said to the student.I noticed the students hesitate, and I glanced at them. “What's the problem?” I asked.They glanced at each other awkwardly before the best student spoke up. “We are just scared.” He said. “This is not just about cyberbullying like we thought; it now involves criminals. What if they track us down after the hacking and harm us?” He muttered fearfully.I smirked." You have nothing to worry about; they will be caught by the end of today before they even think about fighting back." I said.Mason glanced at me. “What's your plan?” He asked.“I have no plan, but Dad does." I said.“Damn, how can we forget we have a strong backer?” Mason said.“Is your dad a mafia lord?” The top student asked lowly.I frowned. “Why would you say that?” “I think only people with deep criminal connections are the only ones that can face the gang of the Land of No Rules.” He said.“Well, my dad is not a criminal.” I rolled my eyes.“Sorry about

Chapter: Chapter 179 Ethan’s PovI got to the computer science department, and I started my search for Mason. I found him sitting on a round chair with two other students just when I was about to call and ask for his location. My breathing came out unevenly because of how fast I walked here. “Hey, what did you find?” I asked immediately when I got to where they were sitting. “Hi, Ethan.” One of the students raised his head, and I recognized him to be one of our team members, who is also the top student in the computer science department and is known for his extraordinary hacking skills. I forced a little smile. “Hey.” I replied simply. The second student also waved at me, and I waved back. “They said they can help us to track the IP address of the poster and hack the account to delete all those videos.” Mason said. “Thanks for the help, man.” I shook hands with both students. I sat on the chair with them, and the two of them got to work. “Excuse me.” I called their attention, and they stopped to glance at me. “I

Chapter: Chapter 178 Ethan’s PovI didn't wait to know if Mason was still following me, nor did I reply to the coach shouting my name. I just ran, or maybe it was more than running. I practically shoved through half the damn campus trying to get out of the field. My phone stayed clenched tightly in my hand because all my mind does is replaying those damn videos over and over again.It looks so real that even I find it difficult to believe it wasn't me and Lila in them. And those damn remarks about Lila are just making my head want to explode.Whoever uploaded it… No, it's not whoever; the person behind it is definitely Jake. It's him. Had to be. From the stalking to the pestering to the overall obsession. This had his fingerprints all over it.My jaw tightened hard as I cut through the side path toward the academic building.Students were everywhere with their phones out, scrolling through the hot gist. While some were talking in groups.A group of guys standing near the fountain glanced at me, then whispered among
