"Sign the divorce paper,"

"You... want a divorce?"

"Sandra’s back. You know the drill,"

"Johann, I..."

"You don't love me. I don't love you. Our marriage is nothing but a filial duty,"

"Would it make any difference if... I say I'm pregnant?"

"That's bullshit, and you know it, Kendra. I always take precautions."

A request from a dying mother and a filial duty of a sole heir brought two innocent hearts together.

Johann Petersen had no choice but to break up with the love of his life, Sandra Fell. One cold winter night turned his life around when his grandfather demanded he married someone else, in the name of courtesy, friendship, and paying a life debt.

Kendra Summers knew from the start that Johann married her not for love, but she was hopeful that he would fall in love with her one day. Yet, on the night of their second wedding anniversary, before she could announce her pregnancy, he handed her the divorce paper.

Will their marriage end shortly and leave them broken?

Or will their child salvage the slightest chance of hope to blossom a love that is hidden?

Once Divorced, Twice Married

　　"I need you tonight, Kendra. Sleep with me, be mine..." his sultry manly voice said it all.


　　And surely it wasn't a hallucination when I felt the voltage run from my hand to my whole body when he grabbed my hand tight. 


　　I scoffed but didn't–or couldn't say anything. I thought it would be our last night together, tomorrow, we will get a divorce, and this would be the last time I get to feel his touch, so I guess there was nothing wrong with giving in for the very last time. 


　　I swallowed not only my saliva but also my pride, I openly accepted his invitation. Once I gave him a silent nod, he pulled me and I ended up sitting on top of him, like a princess handled by his chivalry prince.
