Claire Celestine Amery Lopez, the brilliant class president who tops her class, has always kept her focus sharp and her priorities straight-mainly her studies. Raised by strict parents, her life is a meticulous balance of academic achievement and relentless discipline. But everything changes when Shawn Xavier Vergara enters her world. Known for his unmatched aptitude for arithmetic and his remarkable victories in academic contests, Shawn captures Claire's attention in ways she never expected.
Initially intrigued by her classmates' praise, Claire's curiosity soon blossoms into something deeper. Drawn to Shawn's enigmatic charm, she starts sending anonymous confessions through his "Not Gonna Lie" account, pouring her heart out without revealing her true identity. Her secret confessions become her escape, but as the months pass, the weight of her unspoken feelings grows harder to bear.
Celestine has fallen for someone who doesn't even know she exists. Will she confess her feelings before it's too late? Will fate give her a chance to get closer to him?
