1
Ava Chen, a 22-year-old photography student with big dreams and bigger rain-soaked problems,
2
is stuck at a bus stop in the middle of a storm.
3
No Uber, no cab.
4
Basically, the universe is like, lol, good luck, girl.
5
Ava does the logical thing and calls her brother,
6
Josh Chen, the human equivalent of a golden retriever in terms of charm and popularity,
7
except plot twist.
8
He picks up the phone midway through having sex.
9
Yup, you heard that right.
10
Ew, Josh, what the heck?
11
Josh, being super helpful as always,
12
is like, uh, can't come,
13
busy, you know, doing things.
14
Ugh.
15
But no worries, he's got a plan.
16
He sends his best bro,
17
Alex Volkov, to rescue her.
18
Except Alex Volkov isn't your typical,
19
hey, let me save the day kind of guy.
20
Oh, no, no, no, no,
21
no. He's more like, look at me wrong,
22
and I'll burn your life to the ground for fun.
23
But he's also a genius COO with a 160 IQ and a net worth that screams untouchable.
24
Anyway, Alex pulls up, rolls down the window,
25
and hits Ava with a simple get in.
26
No, hey, need a towel or wow, rough night, huh?
27
Just get in.
28
And let's be real.
29
Alex is only here because Josh asked.
30
If it were up to him,
31
Ava would probably still be soggy and cursing the rain gods.
32
Now the car ride?
33
Oh, it's awkward.
34
Tension's so thick you could spread it on toast.
35
Sarcasm flies.
36
Ava's mortified when she realizes her shirt's gone all wet and see-through.
37
And Alex just drives like, This is fine.
38
Nothing to see here.
39
Eventually, he drops her off and she gets ready for Josh's farewell party,
40
because surprise, he's off to some internship camp.
41
But before he leaves, Josh goes full big brother mode and tells Alex to keep an eye on Ava while he's gone.
42
Except by keep an eye,
43
he means basically become her shadow and scare off her creepy ex Liam.
44
You know, the guy who cheated on her and now won't leave her alone.
45
And Josh, he's convinced Alex,
46
the human iceberg, would never fall for Ava.
47
Spoiler alert, wrong.
48
So Alex moves into Josh's place next door to Ava.
49
Casual, right?
50
And Ava's squad featuring Bridget,
51
a literal princess, Jules, future Elle Woods,
52
and Stella, Instagram It Girl,
53
quickly clocks that Alex is a robot with zero emotions.
54
Naturally, they start Operation Emotion Extraction because science.
55
Step two, sadness.
56
Ava grabs two weepy movies,
57
marches over to Alex's place and knocks.
58
He opens the door, looking like he'd just walked off a billionaire bachelor catalog,
59
and goes, I'm about to go on a date.
60
Ava's stomach, full on, WTF somersault mode,
61
but she plays it cool and blurts out a terrible excuse about movie night.
62
Alex squints at her, smirks like he's onto her,
63
and cancels his date anyway.
64
Iconic.
65
Ava's like, oh no, you didn't have to do that,
66
but also secretly, he cancelled for me?
67
The night's a mix of bad movies,
68
snarky banter, and Ava literally running her hand down,
69
Alex is back to check for a robot control panel.
70
Bold move, girl.
71
Bold.
72
Somewhere between the movies, Alex calls her sunshine in this low,
73
gravelly voice, and Ava straight up butterfly central.
74
She falls asleep mid-movie and Alex lets her crash in his bed because,
75
well, it's raining and he's totally not having inconveniently soft thoughts about her.
76
Fast forward to a fancy gala,
77
Alex sees some random dude dancing with Ava and his jealousy meter goes ding ding ding ding ding They argue,
78
Ava calls him out for being all I'm heartless,
79
except secretly I'm not, and he's just standing there like,
80
well crap, she's got me figured out.
81
Later that night, Liam, aka X-level Menace,
82
shows up, grabs Ava, and harasses her because she won't take him back.
83
Alex shows up just in time,
84
goes full Hulk smash mode, and beats Liam senseless.
85
Ava stops him before it gets too murdery,
86
but the whole thing dredges up her worst childhood memory,
87
the time her mom, depressed and desperate,
88
pushed her into a lake only to overdose shortly after.
89
Cue another party where some mean girl shoves Ava into a pool.
90
Ava's childhood drama kicks in,
91
but Alex swoops in dripping with fury and vows to ruin the girl's life.
92
He then helps Ava conquer her fear of water by teaching her to swim.
93
It's cute, it's wholesome, and we're all just sobbing quietly in the back by this point.
94
In return, Ava plans a surprise birthday party for Alex.
95
He's suspiciously chill about it,
96
even cuts the cake, aww,
97
and later confesses it's his first birthday celebration since his parents were murdered when he was a kid.
98
Turns out he's been carrying some big trauma of his own.
99
So after a kiss so electric it could have powered a small city,
100
Alex decides to hit reverse like,
101
he's all, this was a mistake,
102
we can't do this, sir, what?
103
Ava's standing there like, excuse me,
104
you kissed me, but no,
105
he's on this whole broody bad boy act,
106
mumbling about how he's saving her by staying away.
107
And Ava, oh, she's got that save me from what,
108
your perfect cheekbones energy, but fine.
109
She storms off dramatically, cute stomping heels.
110
Now, fast forward a few days,
111
Ava's ghosting Alex harder than an ex who owes her money,
112
skipping swimming lessons and everything.
113
Alex, he's fuming.
114
You better stop ignoring me and get in the water.
115
She finally shows up, hops in the pool, and boom!
116
Childhood drama hits like a freight train.
117
She blacks out mid-swim, and when she wakes up, where am I?
118
Alex is there, looking like a kicked puppy.
119
He's all soft and reassuring,
120
like, it's okay, you'll get there.
121
No need to apologize.
122
Ava, feeling some type of way,
123
looks at him like, you know what?
124
Kiss me.
125
Alex tries resisting, again, with the same I'm not good for you speech.
126
Ava, not having it, goes,
127
Listen here, Mr. Tall, Dark, and Broody.
128
If you want me, prove it.
129
And girl, guess what?
130
He does.
131
He books the penthouse.
132
That night, let's just say rules weren't just broken, they were incinerated.
133
While mid-steamy stare, Ava's like,
134
Wait, don't you have a no-eye-contact rule?
135
And Alex?
136
No rules apply with you.
137
Then Thanksgiving rolls around.
138
Cute family vibes?
139
Not so much.
140
Ava suddenly remembers her dad's shiny villain ring, TM.
141
The same one that she saw when she was shoved into the lake as a kid.
142
Turns out, Daddy Dearest is not only her attempted murderer,
143
but also tried smothering her with a pillow.
144
Casual family drama.
145
Ava freaks out, tells Alex,
146
and boy does he spring into action.
147
He arranges a dramatic office confrontation.
148
Her dad confesses everything, and just when you think it's over, surprise!
149
Josh pops out like, gotcha, sucker!
150
The recording lands dad in jail,
151
but not before Josh throws Alex the break her heart and die glare.
152
Speaking of chaos, Alex finds out his uncle Ivan murdered his parents.
153
Yep, this man's life is a soap opera.
154
Things get even messier when Ivan kidnaps Ava and her bestie Bridget.
155
Alex storms in, acting like Ava means nothing to him.
156
The audacity.
157
He's all, she's just a fling.
158
Boo.
159
Ava's crushed, but plot twist,
160
she and Bridget take matters into their own hands.
161
They escape like queens, hi-yah, karate chopping Ivan's goons.
162
Meanwhile, Alex goes full John Wick,
163
pumping six bullets into Uncle Ivan.
164
Pew, pew, pew, pew, pew,
165
pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew.
166
Justice is served, hot, and crispy.
167
Ava confronts Alex, asking if all the horrible things he said were true.
168
He's like, yep, sure were.
169
Lie.
170
Ava's heart Josh, raging, beats Alex into next week.
171
Pow!
172
Smack!
173
Boom!
174
But Alex just takes it,
175
whispering between punches, I actually do love her, bro.
176
Josh, too late, fool.
177
Months pass and Ava flees to London for a photography fellowship trying to rebuild her life.
178
Alex, realizing he's a certified idiot,
179
races to the airport, but womp womp, he's too late.
180
Two weeks later, Alex pulls a full-on simp move in London.
181
Breakfast deliveries, daily walks, basically a walking apology letter.
182
Ava's like, no, try harder.
183
But at her exhibition's grand finale,
184
Alex drops a speech and sings.
185
A little off-key, but it's the thought that counts.
186
Ava, finally melting like ice cream in July, forgives him.
187
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
188
They spend the night together surrounded by her beautiful photos, artsy and romantic.
189
Four months later, they're back in the U.S playing happy couple,
190
while Josh is still side-eyeing Alex like, I'm watching you.
191
But love prevails, at least until Thanksgiving dinner.
192
Bridget von Ascheberg, princess in disguise and total girl next door vibes,
193
but like actual royalty is just trying to graduate college like everyone else.
194
But dun dun da!
195
Her bodyguard goes on paternity leave.
196
So in comes Reese Larson,
197
ex-Navy seal, human thunderstorm, and professional brooder.
198
From day one, they're bickering like an old married couple.
199
Bridget's like, ugh, you're bossy.
200
Reese, no, I'm protecting you.
201
Sir, relax.
202
It's not like she's trying to join MI6.
203
But when Bridget sneaks out with Ava for a concert, they're kidnapped.
204
Reese storms in like a one-man action movie.
205
Pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow!
206
Saving the day thanks to a tracker he secretly planted on her phone.
207
Bridget's mad, like, excuse me, invasion of privacy much?
208
But after some intense glaring...
209
They call a truce.
210
Fast forward, Bridget graduates, and Reese follows her to New York.
211
She tries dating, flop, but the chemistry with Reese is hotter than a curling iron on full blast.
212
When her grandpa, King Edvard,
213
lands in the hospital, Bridget rushes back to Eldora.
214
Plot twist, her brother Nikolai's ditching the throne to marry his American bae,
215
meaning Bridget's next in line.
216
And now she has to become crown princess!
217
Before royal duty consumes her,
218
Bridget decides to tackle her bucket list.
219
Swim with dolphins?
220
Done.
221
Eat junk food?
222
Heck yes.
223
Reese even helps her out.
224
Aww, protective, but sweet.
225
In Costa Rica, they finally cave into their feelings.
226
Reese is like, we shouldn't.
227
Bridget, we're doing this.
228
And well, let's just say the tropical heat wasn't the only thing steamy.
229
Spicy alert!
230
Back in Eldora, Reese officially signs up as her full-time bodyguard.
231
And things get messy.
232
Bridget's juggling jealous suitors and shady noblemen.
233
Boo.
234
Hiss, Andreas and Lord Airhall.
235
Boo.
236
She's also plotting to repeal the royal marriages law so she doesn't have to marry some crusty duke.
237
Reese, meanwhile, is all, we can't be together,
238
but then five seconds later,
239
they're sneaking around the palace like lovesick teens.
240
Boom, someone leaks their relationship to the press.
241
Grandpa King has a heart attack,
242
and Bridget, feeling guilty, breaks up with Reese.
243
She even agrees to marry some boring duke.
244
Heartbroken, Bridget buries herself in queen training,
245
while Reese sulks in the shadows.
246
But wait, plot twist incoming,
247
Grandpa realizes Bridget's miserable and hints that she's still got time to change the law.
248
Bridget and Rhys team up,
249
digging up dirt on Lord Airhall.
250
Oh, and surprise, Rhys is secretly Airhall's illegitimate son.
251
Armed with blackmail material, they flip Parliament's vote.
252
Bam, slam dunk, public opinion won over by their epic love story.
253
We ship it.
254
Finally, the law is repealed,
255
and months later, Bridget marries Rhys in the ultimate fairy tale wedding.
256
She's crowned queen, he's her forever king, and we're all swooning.
257
Okay, first we've got Jules Ambrose,
258
a law student with issues.
259
She's running from her Ohio nightmare past,
260
toxic mom, check, creepy stepdad,
261
double check, and trying to stay laser focused on becoming a lawyer.
262
No boys, no drama, just law.
263
Then, bam, enter Dr. Josh Chen,
264
hospital heartthrob, grudge holder, and the king of don't touch my emotional baggage.
265
These two hated each other for years.
266
Like, you breathe too loud,
267
and it ruins my day.
268
Levels of hate.
269
Why?
270
Oh, because Jules was messy,
271
reckless, and kind of a bad influence on his little sis Ava.
272
He's been salty about it ever since.
273
Ugh.
274
But oops, life throws them together at a legal clinic and a snowy ski trip.
275
There's tension, there's bickering, then bam, they accidentally had sex.
276
Or was it even accidentally?
277
We never know.
278
And instead of being awkward,
279
they're like, let's do it again, but like, casually.
280
Plot twist, it's never just casual, babe.
281
While Jules is dodging scary texts from her psycho ex-max,
282
think prison threats and blackmail-worthy tapes,
283
ugh, men, Josh is out here simmering in his daddy-ish-use soup.
284
Seriously, his dad once tried to kill his sister.
285
Yeah, Josh distracts himself with Jules.
286
Wink, wink.
287
And soon, they're catching feelings, like big ones.
288
Things heat up, wedding weekends,
289
family drama, jealous moments, but then Jules' ex drags her into a heist.
290
She steals Josh's painting.
291
Why does he even own something that ugly?
292
Jules spills everything, hoping for forgiveness,
293
but Josh pulls a ha-ha-just-kidding-I'm-mad move.
294
He uses her fears against her,
295
kicks her out, and boom!
296
Heartbreak city, population Jules.
297
Eventually, Max goes full villain mode and shoves her down the stairs.
298
Rude!
299
Josh treats her at the ER,
300
pieces the puzzle together, and realizes, Oops, I'm the worst!
301
He teams up with Alex for some legal,
302
but not really, revenge, saves the day,
303
and grovels hard enough to win Jules back.
304
Final scene, they're bungee jumping in New Zealand like, We survived trauma!
305
And gravity!
306
Now let's meet Stella Alonso,
307
influencer queen, fashion blogger, and low-key stress day F.
308

309
but IRL, she's drowning in bills,
310
and dealing with family who think her job's a joke.
311
Ugh, relatable.
312
Enter Christian Harper, her landlord,
313

Or is he?
316
So Stella needs a fake boyfriend to boost her followers.

Why?
318
To snag a luxury fashion deal because hashtag girlboss life.
319
After two hilariously terrible candidates,
320
one guy wouldn't shut up about crypto,
321

322
But not because he's nice,
323
nope, it's because her stalker is back and he's all,
324

325
They stage cute couple pics and PDA moments,
326
but Christian, he's giving, I notice your coffee order and install secret cameras to keep you safe energy.
327
Stella falls for him, even though he's a little.. intense.
328
Actually, a lot intense, but things unravel when she finds out he's been orchestrating their entire relationship.
329
Yep, he's been watching her for years like some lovesick FBI agent.
330
Creepy, but also.. kinda hot?
331
Anyway, Stella flips out and moves to London.
332
Christian, because he's extra, follows her and starts doing the saddest, sweetest grand gestures.
333
I bought you breakfast and respect your boundaries now!

The big moment, he confesses his love at her photography exhibit,
335
and it's so raw and emotional that Stella forgives him.

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
