"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

Bae knitted her perfectly shaped brows and gave Laurie a doubting look. "What's with the sudden change of mind?" She asked after a few minutes of staring at each other and Laurie didn't blink nor change her facial expression. "You are really serious this time."

Laurie gave Bae a small smile. "I'm serious about wanting to go home. Now, I just wanted the courage to sit down and talk to my mother about her obsession to marry me off."

"Hmm, sounds like a good plan." She smirked. "If only you won't back out at the last minute. That is."

"Shut up!" She slightly blushed, embarrassed for Bae caught on to her bullshit. It was indeed nothing but a good plan if she didn't act on it. She has been thinking a lot for the past few days and she felt tired of running and hiding from all the shitty mistakes that she made.
