The CEO's Secret Playlist Chapter 1

I was one of the most popular female celebrities on the internet when I suddenly announced my marriage into a wealthy family.

Three months after getting married, I joined a couple's live-stream reality show out of the blue.

The whole internet mocked me.

[Attention seeker. Our sister just joined this show, and she immediately glued herself to it.]

[Definitely won't be as sweet as our Harper.]

[Of course not, it's a business marriage between wealthy families. What feelings could they possibly have?]

The show's production team gave me a mission.

I kept a cold face and tested my husband, saying, "I know everything."

To everyone's shock, the usually aloof and arrogant CEO fell to his knees with a thud.

Netizens: [Did he cheat? Dropping to his knees immediately?]

"I borrowed some money, just for some cash flow."

Netizens: [He's actually bankrupt! Otherwise, why would he marry an actress?]

I was startled. "How much did you borrow?"

His handsome face showed a hint of guilt. "It was quite expensive."

"I bought an annual SVIP subscription to a streaming platform."

"To binge-watch your TV dramas."

Netizens: [Brother-in-law, I'm crying! You really ask for the moon!]

The day I announced my marriage, Twitter crashed. It was a rare event.

Countless netizens questioned why I was so love-struck.

Abandoning a bright future to gamble on a man's love.

A group of my biggest fans and dedicated career-focused supporters were heartbroken.

They publicly questioned me on Twitter:

[Are you that desperate for a man?]

[With your money, what kind of man can't you find?]

[Are you that starved for attention?]

[We're not stopping you from dating, but at least pick someone decent! If nothing else, look at Harper next door. Her husband is a famous director who can give her resources, and he's super handsome.]

Harper was an actress from my cohort.

Our fanbases often clashed, but in reality, we didn't interact much.

Shortly after she got married, I announced my own marriage.

I thought netizens would bless me just as they blessed her.

But I didn't expect...

To be scolded terribly.

Even though I emphasized that he was really handsome and rich.

In the eyes of netizens:

[When you're infatuated, even sh*t smells good.]

Right after, Harper announced she was participating in a couple's live-stream reality show.

The production team used me as a foil and tried to invite me.

I originally didn't plan on participating in this show.

But a long-time fan wrote a letter saying:

[Sister, we're not against you dating. We really hope you find your own happiness. It's just that your sudden marriage, without any build-up about your husband's identity, and without any trace of your romance, makes us worry. We're not against it; we're just worried. Worried that you married the wrong person, worried that your career will stall because of this relationship, and eventually, you'll lose both love and career.

But, regardless, congratulations on finding happiness and starting a new chapter in your life. May the rest of your life be filled with joy, and may everything go smoothly. Stay happy.]

I decided to join the show.

Consider it an explanation to my fans.

My relationship with him is actually quite good.

It wasn't a traditional arranged marriage where love comes later.

There was a long period of "trial marriage" beforehand.

I fell in love with him at first sight. Among the scions of wealthy families in arranged marriages, his character and looks were top-tier.

Since an arranged marriage was inevitable, why not choose someone pleasing to the eye?

I decided it had to be him from the very beginning.

The beginning of the story: The Reserved Mr. Moore and the Passionate Miss Davis.

I tirelessly recommended the TV dramas I starred in to him.

Praying the big boss would invest.

Also praying the big boss would be won over by my multifaceted charm.

The development of the story: The Gentle Mr. Moore and the Tsundere Miss Davis.

He unexpectedly visited the set where I was filming.

Saw my desperate dedication.

He felt bad but was moved by the light of my chasing dreams.

He began escorting my career.

I listened to my best friend, playing hard to get.

Being a tease is the perfect solution.

The climax of the story: The Refined Mr. Moore and the Successful Miss Davis.

The resources he fed me, combined with my acting skills, helped me shed the "internet celebrity" label and become a respected actress.

The lack of major awards was only due to insufficient seniority; I just hadn't put in the time yet.

The ending of the story: The Clingy Mr. Moore and the Composed Miss Davis.

According to normal couple reality shows, our dynamic was perfectly fine.

We could even gain a lot of fans.

But I didn't expect the show's format to be a live-streamed daily life experience.

With hidden cameras installed.

And we couldn't inform our partners about the hidden cameras.

But some of his actions were really unbroadcastable!

If broadcasted, the stream would be banned in minutes.

But I had already boarded the pirate ship and couldn't get off.

The contract was signed.
