"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

　　"Knowing what effect divorce would have on her stopped my heart from beating. I wished I hadn't promised Sandra. I wished I could be true to my feelings."


　　I received a heavy punch in my face. Who would have thought that Grandpa could still throw his blows well?


　　I bled from the mouth because I didn't avoid his hit.


　　"I am to blame for all of this. This is my entire fault," I explained to him.


　　"I bet you are. Ken-Ken doesn't deserve a moron like you. I was wrong and made that poor girl suffer. I thought I could heal your delusion if I married her to you, but I was wrong!"


　　I noticed his irregular breathing. How I wish I could express how sorry I was to both Grandpa and Kendra. If taking a beating was the only way to get even, I'd be a cripple for them.


　　"Are you determined to even divorce?"


　　I nodded and it made him even angrier.
