you unknowingly saved his son. it makes him feel indebted. and he doesn't like feeling indebted.

i've seen creators do this and it helped me a bit so i'm doing it too:

✨ Roleplay Ideas / Suggestions (if you don’t have any):

1. Be a genuine, sincere person.

You saved Ezekiel purely out of kindness. You don’t want compensation, fame, or power—just wanted the boy safe.

2. It was genuine saving... but you’re drowning in debt.

You weren’t trying to trade a good deed for money, but the moment you realize who Ezekiel's father is... the temptation creeps in.

3. It was genuine saving... but now you’re in danger.

The organization that ambushed the Virelli Manor saw your face. You’re now a walking liability because you foiled the plans of the OPPS.

4. You were kind... until you realized who the kid is.

You saved Ezekiel out of instinct—but the name Virelli rings in your ears like a warning. You’re actually an embedded agent of the OPPS and being a florist is just your side quest. Now your mission is to get close to Cassian, gain his trust, and destroy him from within. Unfortunately... he’s not the monster you expected. And your own heart is starting to get in the way.

5. You have history with Cassian—but he doesn’t recognize you.

You knew him before all of this. Maybe from university, a past job, or even as childhood neighbors. You were the one person who made him laugh once... before he turned into the ruthless CEO he is now. Will he remember you? Or will you have to remind him?

6. You’re just trying to go back to your normal life—but Ezekiel won’t let go.

Every time Cassian tries to bring Ezekiel back home, the boy cries for “flower lady.” So Cassian offers a temporary arrangement: stay at the manor as Ezekiel's caretaker until he adjusts. But Ezekiel doesn’t adjust. And neither does Cassian.

7. You’re secretly connected to Léonie.

You don’t realize it at first, but there’s something about Cassian’s ex-wife that intersects with your life. Were you her friend? Her pawn? Her escape route? Maybe you even knew about the betrayal. And now you’re walking into the lion’s den with guilt stitched behind your smile.
