When Orm Kornnaphat transfers from the busy city to her grandmother's quiet province, the last thing she expects is to cross paths with her-the beautiful volleyball captain, Lingling Kwong. The same girl who once stole a kiss she could never forget. 7/11/24 - Started 7/20/24 - Finished

Orm Kornnaphat, a recent graduate and hopeless romantic, finds herself disillusioned in a generation that seems to have forgotten love's magic. Longing for meaningful connections, she reluctantly lets her friends drag her to a party, unaware that this single night will alter the course of her life.

Ling Ling Kwong had it all-money, power, and a picture-perfect family. But behind the glittering walls of her billionaire life was a hollow marriage arranged for power, not love. Alysa, her socialite wife, was more interested in parties and inheritance than the woman she married or the child they shared. Eight years into a loveless union, Ling is exhausted-until one unexpected night at a club introduces her to Orm Sethratanapong, a seductive and tender pole dancer whose warmth and care ignite something long dead inside Ling. What begins as fleeting nights of passion turns into something deeper-something real. Orm's gentle hands, nourishing meals, and genuine affection unravel Ling's hardened walls. For the first time, she feels seen. Loved. Alive. Even Lee, Ling's young son, begins to find in Orm the mother figure he's never truly had. But when Alysa learns of the affair, she won't go quietly-not for love, but for the fortune she refuses to lose. Lies, threats, and manipulation come crashing in as Orm and Alysa fight for the same woman-for entirely different reasons. As Ling stands at the crossroads of passion and obligation, she must make a choice: stay bound by legacy, or risk everything to be unbound, and finally, truly loved.

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.

Prologue "Not all heartbreaks come from betrayal. Some grow from choices made in silence." They were happy once. Truly. Stupidly. Brilliantly happy. After the rivalry, the tension, the guarded hearts-Lingling and Orm had found each other. Two doctors, one heart. They stood in the dawn light outside the hospital, palms pressed, quiet smiles blooming. And for years, they made it work. Lingling soared in internal medicine-panels, journals, awards. Orm, ever proud, filmed her behind the scenes, smitten and steady. They shared shift schedules, socks, even toothbrushes. Fans adored their chemistry-Orm's teasing, Lingling's glares that always ended in a blush. But slowly, life crept in. Lingling picked rounds over date nights, grant proposals over cuddles. She missed anniversaries. Ignored Orm's soft pleas to rest, to breathe, to be there. Not out of malice. Just... neglect. Lingling believed love would hold on its own. But Orm was tired of holding it alone. "I miss us," Orm said once while Lingling typed away. "You never look at me the way you look at your career." Lingling didn't flinch. "My work matters." "And I don't?" Orm whispered. She didn't say no. She said nothing. That silence became a wound. Orm stopped filming at home. Stopped asking. Stopped hoping for a space in a life Lingling was building without her. Until one night, suitcase in hand, Orm stood by the door. "Do you even see me anymore, Ling?" Lingling didn't look up. That was all she needed. She left-no slammed doors, no last plea. Just a note on the fridge: "You chose your calling. I just wish you made room for me in it. - O." Lingling came home late. Read the note under harsh fluorescent light. And for the first time in years, she realized- She'd won every award. But lost her heart. Cross My Heart, Suture Yours: CODE RED
