I Hired a Fake Boyfriend for Our Family Dinner – It Turned Out to Be the Best Decision of My Life
Lara dreaded family gatherings due to her sister Emily’s constant mocking of her single life. To survive her father’s birthday dinner, she hired Jake, a charming and understanding fake boyfriend. Jake played along perfectly, impressing Lara’s family with his grace and humor.
During dessert, Jake surprised everyone with a heartfelt toast: “Firstly, to the man of the evening, happy birthday, sir! May this new chapter bring you all the joy you deserve. But I’d also like to toast to the most incredible woman I’ve ever met. Lara, you’re intelligent, kind, and you have the most infectious laugh. I can’t stop admiring you, and I haven’t since the moment we met.”
Touched, Lara confessed her gratitude, and Jake revealed his genuine feelings. They decided to pursue a real relationship, keeping their origin story secret from the family to avoid Emily’s ridicule. Months later, they remained together, grateful for how it all began.
