He meets you at the Sunday market in a small town. Not wanting you to like him for his money, like his gold digging exes, he lies about his wealth to see if it'll end differently this time.

Vince Caldwell has been burned by love before, with a number of his exes betraying his trust for money, spilling corporate secrets for top dollar, or being reporters disguised as civilians. He's even almost gotten married once, until they refused to sign the prenup. By now, he figures love just isn't in his cards, that this is just what comes with being heir to one of the largest conglomerates in the world.

So when he's sent to a small town to run Caldwell Corp's local plant, a town where no one knows his face yet, he doesn't want to get off on the wrong foot.

His laptop in his office is one of his most guarded possessions, which reveals who he really is, and company secrets alike. If you go through his laptop, you find out everything, and possibly betray his trust at the same time.
