Too Young to Love Me
Ayyan Ameen Majidadi has it all - wealth, looks, and a mouth sharper than a blade. At twenty-four, he's the university's golden boy with a notorious reputation and a nickname that fits too well: the Sarcasm Lord. He doesn't chase things... things chase him. Until he met her. Dr. Aneesa Ibrahim Pape, twenty-seven, elegant, composed, and far too serious for her own good, becomes his lecturer - and the only woman he can't charm with a smirk. To her, Ayyan is just another arrogant, spoiled brat who needs to grow up. To him, she's the woman who made his world tilt off balance with a single glance. When his teasing turns to persistence and her indifference turns to hidden turmoil, the line between right and wrong begins to blur. Aneesa's family was already on her neck for being unmarried at twenty-seven, but falling for her student is the last thing she can afford. Yet Ayyan doesn't take no for an answer - not when it comes to love. Behind his sarcasm lies sincerity; behind her restraint, longing. Their story is one of forbidden glances, unspoken emotions, and a love that laughs in the face of reason - but can even the boldest heart survive when society, family, and time all say no?Concluida

Before you go

Where did I go wrong? Was it money? I didn't feed you well? I didn't clothe you? My love wasn't enough for you? I need to know, all those years!
