Lingling Kwong has it all-beauty, success, and elegance. At thirty, she's built Kwong Fine Dine into one of the most prestigious restaurants in the city, yet her heart remains untouched. Despite her wealth, Ling lives with quiet humility, her life as polished and serene as the wine glasses she sets on her tables.
Then comes Orm Korn.
Loud, reckless, and untamed, the twenty-three-year-old troublemaker bursts into Ling's calm world on the night of her own birthday. With her boyish charm, amber eyes that gleam with mischief, and a laugh that demands attention, Orm is everything Ling isn't-and everything Ling can't seem to resist.
What starts as playful banter quickly deepens into stolen glances, lingering touches, and the kind of late-night confessions that blur the line between danger and desire. Ling falls for Orm's raw honesty, believing in the passion she sees beneath the chaos.
But Orm carries a secret-one that began as a cruel bet with her friends: make Ling fall, take her riches, and walk away. What Orm never expected was to fall too-deeper and harder than she ever thought possible.
When the truth shatters Ling's heart, will Orm prove she's more than the reckless girl who started it all? Or is love too fragile to survive betrayal?
A story of temptation, heartbreak, and the kind of love that tests every boundary.
