There are three stories in this book. The first is the main story. The next two are the side characters' love stories.

BOOK ONE: (COMPLETED)

She closed her eyes and recalled that day which was the lowest point of her life that led almost to depths of despair and might have ruined her future. "Without that incident, will I be able to reach all of these? Would my life had been better or worst?  Should I be thanking him now instead of hating him?"

Without delay, he hugged her tightly. He heard her gasped a little and stiffened. Thus, he loosened his hold but didn't let go. He whispered in her ear, "I'll make sure I'm the first and last man in your life." 

She loosened up then rest her head on his chest and softly said, "they said a conservative man is a novelty nowadays, are you?"

"Yeah, I'm a novelty borne just for you."

This is a story combining cooking with romance. Let's accompany a girl named Beauty Ferol, on her journey from being bullied to find love while exploring the world of culinary with the support of a certain Your Romeo. Expect to see a lot of dishes that spiced up their lives.

From the author: This is my first time writing a novel and I'm not a native English speaker. I want to thank for droopy for editing the first 60 chapters.

I'm Guilty, My Beauty[COMPLETED]

Harriet answered whisper-like, "Nothing." She sobbed again.


"What do you want? Why were you targeting me?"


"I don't want anything from you …," she faced Sheila, thinking of something. Silence. "But if you allow, I think I need your help."


"Can you teach me how to cook? I mean, how to cook special delicacies?"


Sheila was taken aback hearing the request. "What for?"


"So I can take the cooking contest and get a scholarship and be admitted in the school."


Sheila slightly felt regret for asking. Somehow, she perceived the sincerity of the person requesting. "You could have just ask me for help from the start."


Slowly, Harriet's face glowed, she seemed to see a silver lining coming her way. "Sorry, actually, this only came to mind while we're talking." Deep inside, she prayed the other person will say yes.


"Fine, I can teach you some competition recipes I know."
