    Summary

    That word, engaged.

    Hope blooms suddenly in her heart. Engaged -- that means marriage, and marriage means citizenship. The immigration lawyer had mentioned that before, but she's not even seeing anyone at the moment. Not that it was a surprise, since she's spent the entirety of her adult life making her career her absolute top priority. 

    Getting engaged to someone is impossible, unless she...

    Unless she somehow fakes it.

    But, who? Who the hell would go along with something like that? Who would agree to fake being her fiancée just to save her job?

    Her eyes land on her assistant.

    OR

    Desperate to retain her visa status in Snezhnaya, Sandrone forces her put-upon assistant, Columbina, into marriage to save her.
