"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?

I sighed, "How I wish my life also sparkled like this," I regretted taking a bus that day. If I hadn't been so proud and stubborn, I wouldn't have had to experience this tragic incident. 


Now, I am lying in this hospital bed wearing a hospital gown in a hospital room I am not familiar with. 


It was too late to realize that someone had been sitting on the couch in the corner of the room. 


I just massaged my head thinking about the trouble I gave this gentleman. 


I cleared my throat to let him know I am awake. I am too embarrassed to even say hi to him, so this was the strategy I came up with. And hell yeah, it was effective.
