He woke up and found himself swimming in the ocean no matter how deep it gets. And the farther she stayed away, the deeper his feelings grew. Can the cold and aloof billionaire be able to capture the wounded beauty who's trying to flee? And can she accept the wounded billionaire? Covered with secrets and lies due to fears, worries, hesitations... will they be given a chance to be together once they unveil the scars of their past?
