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.

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.

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.

Su Yan adored Xie Yu for many years and finally got what she wanted, but Xie Yu ran away on the wedding day, making her a laughing stock. At that time, Bai Xingfan appeared in front of her.
