In a world where arguments are won with logic and emotions are treated like liabilities, Celine has always chosen to stay quiet. At 23, she's a reserved, down-to-earth law student who believes in hard work, integrity, and keeping her heart out of anything that could ruin her focus. Love? It's a distraction she can't afford-especially in a place as ruthless as law school.
Then there's Steve.
At 25, he's everything Celine avoids-confident, stubborn, and known for leaving a trail of broken hearts behind him. A natural in the courtroom and a charmer outside of it, Steve treats relationships like cases he can easily win... and walk away from.
Blockmates by circumstance, opposites by nature. But one reckless bet changes everything. Pushed by his friends, Steve is dared to pursue Celine-the quiet girl no one ever notices-and make her fall, only to break her heart in the end. To him, it's just another game. Another challenge he's sure he can win.
Steve is Celine crush even though his avoiding him. She doesn't show if she has a feeling for someone, she is more focused on her study. She doesn't flirt back. She doesn't chase. Unfortunately, she does trust easily.
