In a world ruled by legacy, two women are forced into a marriage neither of them wanted... but fate might have other plans. Orm Kornnaphat is a spoiled heiress - fiery, dramatic, and used to getting her way. She's the rebellious daughter of a powerful food export empire, more interested in stuffed toys and late mornings than boardrooms and responsibilities. When her family forces her into an arranged marriage, she's furious - especially when her bride turns out to be the mysterious stranger who once helped her on a night she can't even remember. Lingling Kwong is the definition of composed. Cold, calculating, and beautiful, she's the only child of the Kwong business dynasty and a boss feared by everyone - but apparently not including her new wife. For Ling, obedience is survival. She's always done what's expected of her, even if it means marrying a bratty stranger for the sake of business and family pride. Thrown into a high-profile marriage neither of them asked for, Orm and Lingling become unwilling partners in a game far bigger than themselves. From chaotic mornings to silent car rides, office wars to stuffed toys invading private spaces - they're learning that hatred, annoyance, and sarcasm might just blur into something else when you're stuck in the same home, same office... and the same destiny. Love isn't part of the plan. But fate? Fate doesn't care what they planned.

Balancing the blurred lines of friendship and desire, how do you hold onto what's familiar when fate forces you closer than ever professionally and personally?

"She was supposed to teach me Chinese. I ended up begging for her in every language." Ten years after vanishing into the glittering world of London high society, Orm Korn Sethratanapong returns to Bangkok with a designer suitcase and a smirk that hides a thousand secrets. Rich, reckless, and used to getting what she wants, Orm is tasked with managing her family's Chinese-investor-backed company. There's just one problem-she doesn't speak a word of Mandarin or Cantonese. Enter Lingling Sirilak Kwong: gorgeous, intelligent, emotionally unavailable. A private Chinese tutor with strict rules, including one she never breaks-don't fall in love. Especially not with clients. Especially not with smug, boyish flirts with blonde hair and honey eyes who can't stop crossing the line. Their lessons quickly spiral into arguments, heated glances, and late nights that end with torn clothes and breathless silence. They promise it's just sex. Just tension. Just nothing. Until Ling disappears. And Orm is willing to tear apart the world to find the woman who swore she'd never love her.

Lingling Sirilak Kwong was raised with silence in her veins. She doesn't shout. She doesn't ask. Her hands do the speaking-steady, exact, dangerous in a way that doesn't need to warn you twice. She leads with the kind of power that doesn't seek permission. Her world is sharp-edged and quiet, and she's made peace with being alone in it. Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong lives differently-under fluorescent lights, in rooms that smell like antiseptic and the weight of responsibility. Everything about her is clean, practiced, still. Her voice is soft, but her spine never bends. People depend on her. She lets them. Because she doesn't know what it's like to be chosen instead of needed. They met under bad lighting and worse timing. A parking lot. A crude comment. Four men. And one voice that cut the night open: "She told you to move." It should've ended there. A nod. A thank you. A walk away. But Orm didn't walk. And Lingling didn't let her. Now there's a thread pulled too tight between them. Sheets. Bruises. Breathless silence. A thousand things said with hands instead of mouths. Lingling touches Orm like she's already hers. Orm lets her in like she doesn't know how to say no. It's not love. Not yet. But something hangs in the space they keep trying not to name. It lingers on the tip of the tongue, right where pretending and staying start to blur. --- --- G!P Lingling

Orm Kornnaphat was trapped in an arranged marriage set up by her parents. Her father's company was in trouble, and the only one who came to the rescue was his old college friend - but on one condition: that Orm marry his only daughter. Her soon-to-be wife's name was Lingling Kwong, undeniably handsome - gorgeous. But... what made Orm even sadder was the fact that Lingling had Asperger's syndrome. Forced to break up with her girlfriend, barely graduated from college and already pushed into marriage - with a 'special' wife. Orm felt like rebelling, but she loved her parents too much. So she accepted it, even if she had to go through it all in tears.

Thailand's youngest Prime Minister, Lingling, has dedicated her life to politics, leaving no room for distractions. But a night in Paris with the world's most sought-after supermodel, Orm, threatens to unravel everything she's built.

Ten years ago, Ling was stood up on prom night by the only person she ever trusted - her best friend Orm. Heartbroken and humiliated, she left her small Missouri town behind, building a flawless new life as one of New York's top criminal defense attorneys. She never went back. She never forgave Orm. She never looked for answers. Until Orm started showing up again. Only Ling can see her. Only Ling can hear her. And as the haunting presence of her long-lost friend begins to unravel her carefully controlled world, Ling is forced to confront a truth far more terrifying than betrayal. Some promises don't die. Some disappearances aren't what they seem. And some ghosts refuse to let go. Thank you @SKS_Darlene in X for the prompt

G!P (Ling) At the alumni homecoming, everyone expected Ling Kwong-the rich, dominant beauty once worshiped on campus-to arrive with someone dazzling. No one expected her to arrive married... to Orm Kornnaphat, the clumsy, bullied girl everyone mocked. But Orm isn't the same girl anymore. She's powerful, dangerous, and her obsession with Ling has turned into something darker than love. Behind the perfect marriage lies a plan years in the making: passion, revenge, and a hunger that won't stop until the past is buried-and the guilty are too. How far will obsession go when it wears a ring?

Drowned in You Synopsis: After losing her parents to a violent sea storm on her eighth birthday, Lingling Kwong was raised by her uncle in a quiet fishing village in Chonburi. Now thirty, she's a passionate surfer who finds peace in the very ocean that once broke her-and dreams of competing on the world stage, even if life constantly demands she put survival first. Orm Kornnaphat, born into Thailand's most powerful resort empire, lived a life of wealth and discipline-until a ferry explosion claimed her parents when she was just twenty. Inheriting everything, Orm hardened into a cold, perfectionist CEO of Kornnaphat's Urban Oasis, shutting out emotion and isolating herself behind power. When Lingling applies for a lifeguard job at the luxury resort, her warmth and resilience clash with Orm's icy control. But behind their tension lies shared grief, quiet admiration, and a pull neither woman can deny. As the ocean stirs with storms and memories, the two begin to fall-for one another, and for the parts of themselves they long buried. But love between a grieving heiress and a dream-chasing surfer isn't easy. Secrets, expectations, and the tides of the past threaten to pull them under. Yet sometimes, what drowns you... is also what saves you.

She was supposed to return to Bangkok to marry her fiancée after signing away a quiet town for redevelopment. She never made it. After a car crash on the outskirts of nowhere, the heir to a ruthless real estate empire vanishes-no name, no memory, no trace of who she used to be. In a fading seaside inn, she's taken in by Orm-a struggling actress from Bangkok, sent by her father to help her aunt keep the property afloat. Neither of them knows that the quiet stranger helping repair shutters and watching the tide come in is the very woman whose company is trying to demolish the place. But the days turn tender. The silence grows warm. And slowly, Ing becomes someone else-someone softer. Someone Orm might be falling for. But memory doesn't ask for permission.
It comes back in boardrooms, in power suits, in names that carry weight like weapons. But Orm won't go down without a fight. Because it was Ling who once taught her how to fight. And now, even if Ling doesn't remember her-Orm remembers everything. 如果你看过台湾偶像剧，你就会知道灵感来自哪里 🤌🏼
