"What the fuck did you send over, Nicky?" Laurie is screaming over the phone at six fucking  o'clock in the morning.

"It has a note. And I believe that the message was clear." the name Nicky answered.

"Well that's exactly, why I am asking!"  she exclaimed angrily, glaring at the innocently looking red leather pill box, that is instantly recognizable as a famous jewelry brand, sitting on her kitchen counter, with a note that says - I heard you cry over a guy, here's a small gift to let you know that I'd marry you anytime.

With the familiar scrawling penmanship in the white piece of paper, she would know who sent her the note, even without calling the guy on the phone.

***
When the guy you confessed to rejected you, and your two exes came back running—declaring they would marry you any time, what would you do?

Would you choose a familiar old love or the one that has your heart but doesn't want you?

And to add to the chaos, her mother is on a mission to marry her nearing thirty-something ass to any man who breathes. 

What should a girl do in such a situation? Run away, of course! 

But then, how far can you run away until all the life's decisions you screwed up in the past caught up with you and you ended up with no choice but to face them. 

Welcome to Laurie’s adventure and just to be clear this is not a love story BUT a quest.

Capture A Husband: My Asian Mother's Quest

The bar was in full swing when they entered even though it's only eleven. But then, it's not really surprising since it's one of the most popular clubs. To be admitted to the club, one must be a member or invited by a member. You can't queue outside of the club. The owners put up the club as personal hangouts, hence, they don't really care about the crowd or earning money.

But then, the fact that it's an exclusive hangout made it in demand for those who have the money and wanted to be seen in a certain group. The line of this club isn't in the door but the line for application to be a member.

Laurie isn't a member. She has an open invitation from one of the club owners. She met him in Thailand once - in one of the shady clubs in Pattaya. They exchanged social media accounts and to her surprise, when he opened this club, she was sent an open invitation.
