"I'm officially pursuing you."

All she wanted was a second chance in happiness. She had been divorced for two years now and has forgotten about the idea of finding another man. But destiny is playing a cute joke on her to let her met him.

He is successful and powerful and full of distrust on women.

Until he met her.

After that one fateful encounter, are they destined to be together forever? Is God of happiness finally bestowing this tiny spring water to both of them?

ps: I only write happy ending stories. This is 1v1, with a little drama here and there. But those drama only served a purpose to strengthen their relationship. Female lead here is not perfect at all. She is insecure, full of flaws and broken. Male lead is gorgeous and charming as usual. But somehow, they complete each other.

There will be no pitiful weak Cinderella stories here, no white lotus and no almighty CEO that rule the country.

I am portraying normal average people in society. So if this is not your cup of tea, feel free to move on :)

"So, how was Daniel just now?" Risa asked as she was calculating how to hold the stick in between her clasps. "Was he upset or angry or anything like that?"

Karl, who was paying attention at how Risa planted her feet, and then was about to check on her hold, raised up his face to look at her.

"Well, why don't you look at the scoreboard and see how he butchered me earlier?" and then he snorted, "he killed me clean, that heartless bastard!"

You alone
