"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

　　"Had I known the truth before, would I have ended up marrying someone like you?"


　　When Johann left to get something for his woman, I stood in disbelief in the middle of a shopping mall. 


　　The supposed shopping became torture for me. And now, this woman even tried to befriend me, and damn, it made my eyes roll. 


　　"He's always like that. Big or small, he never wanted other people to do it for me. If it has anything to do with me, he wants to be hands-on at all times. Just like now! Isn't he amazing?"


　　I endured not to scoff at her. I wanted to shut her mouth by telling her I wasn't interested in their love story at all. 


　　I kept quiet for some moments while she continuously blabber about how good Johann is to her. 


　　In my mind I could tell, you could have built a monument for him, you know? 


　　But that kind of reaction was because of something I just realized, my jealousy towards them.
