His right hand touched her left upper arm, and then started to slide down to her wrist.

"In case you haven't noticed.." he started to say.

She had stiffened up, started from his initial touch.

"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 :)

I Deserve a Second Chance

"Stop joking around," Mandy slapped her hand onto the back of Axel's hand, and feigned an anger, "you will just make others feel awkward."

Risa bit both of her lips together, trying not to laugh at the husband and wife. She glanced to the side, and saw Karl was also trying to do the same thing.

Axel coughed to clear his throat and then he straightened up; no more teasing the wife, as he started to say, "Yes, anyway where were we?"

Risa smiled, and pretended that she did not see anything, as she said, "So, we met last year. Kei and I were meeting you at The Plaza hotel to talk about the goods that we were looking for."

"Ah!" Axel exclaimed, "That is correct. Yes, we did meet last year, and I still remember vividly because the items that your husband requested were all good stuff."

Risa slowly smiled, but her eyes did not sparkle as usual. She looked down at her clasped hands, and mumbled, "Yes, you are right."
