The Xiao family, known as the poorest amongst the mountaineers had just spent all their savings as dowry for a daughter-in-law, who was disfigured, dark, skinny, and mute. Mocked as the ugliest bride within miles, she eventually had enough of a life in poverty and escaped, only to fall in the hands of rogues who murdered her. When she opened her eyes again, her soul was now that of a killer's, and her disfigurement was healed while her unhealthily tanned skin was now fair as day.... And she could also talk! As she became the most beautiful bride. Villagers kept their distance from the Xiao family, claiming that they were jinxes. But despite her poverty, the bride was fortunate to have a loyal mountaineer husband who spoiled her to bits. Hence, the bride guided her husband to riches, buying farms and tending to them diligently, while starting a family to gain riches through blood and sweat.

At the edge of the world, where maps forget and lanterns never burn out, a girl waits in a ancient shrine. A boy arrives with no clear reason, only a name on the wind and a pull in his chest.

And somewhere between them, the veil begins to stir. A tender, otherworldly tale of forgotten paths, blooming names, and the kind of love that feels like remembering.

Selene Graham, after two years of struggling with unemployment and juggling multiple side jobs, finally lands a job as a secretary to the CEO of Stones Technology, a renowned tech company in New York. Overwhelmed with relief and excitement, she celebrates this achievement with her best friend, Maya. They hit one of the city's hottest clubs for a night of drinks, dancing, and laughter. Where she met Charles Stone though she did not know who he was as at that time After several rounds of shots, Selene, a bit tipsy, stumbles right into a tall, strikingly handsome man with a commanding presence. The chemistry between them is instant, and Selene, in her drunken haze, finds herself caught up in the thrill of the moment. One thing leads to another, and she wakes up the next morning in a luxury hotel room with no sign of her hot stranger, not even a letter left by the bed. Though slightly embarrassed, she brushes it off as a one-night stand with a stranger in the big city, assuming she'll never see him again. Selene’s first day at Stones Technology begins with excitement but quickly turns into shock when she meets the CEO—Charles Stones, a man with a reputation for being ruthlessly business-focused, cold, and unapproachable. As he walks into the office, Selene’s world shatters. The man standing before her is none other than her mysterious one-night stand. Charles immediately gives her a cold, professional greeting, showing no sign of recognition or acknowledgment of what happened between them. Confused and humiliated, Selene tries to make sense of how she could have slept with her new boss, the CEO of the very company she was desperate to work for. As days go by, Charles maintains his icy demeanor, treating Selene like any other employee, but there’s undeniable tension between them. Despite his distant behavior at work, small moments—lingering glances, brief touches, and a flicker of something deeper in his eyes—suggest that the night wasn’t entirely meaningless. Selene struggles to keep things professional, but she can’t help but feel drawn to Charles. Meanwhile, rumors about his personal life circulate around the office, making Selene wonder if the man he showed her that night was the real him or a personality he took on to live a life that is not his for the moment. Eventually, a business trip forces them to spend more time together, and the cracks in Charles’ cold exterior begin to show. He’s not the heartless CEO everyone thinks he is. Beneath his carefully constructed image lies a man burdened by the pressures of running a global empire and personal losses that made him shut out emotional connections. Selene and Charles grow closer during the trip, but complications arise. Selene’s job is now at risk as office gossip spreads about her connection to the CEO. She’s forced to make a decision: should she confront Charles about their night together and risk ruining her career, or keep things professional and let go of whatever feelings she’s starting to develop for him? Things got further complicated when Charles' past popped out. The tension reaches a boiling point when Charles, unable to hide his feelings any longer, confesses that he felt something real with her that night but has been pushing her away out of fear. He’s been hurt before by people who used him for his wealth and power, and his name. Selene, realizing her own fears about vulnerability and opening up, admits she feels the same. They decide to give their relationship a chance, but on the condition that they keep their work and personal lives separate. However, there is someone who has a vendetta against Selene who seems to be biding her time, awaiting a crack so she can weasel her way in. Will said person successfully cause complications or will Selene and Charles love stand the test of time? Or like the famous words of Lance Armstrong, will Selene and Charles be able to over come their challenges and have a second go at their love and give it their all?

Mil would paint pretty lines on a blank canvas, for by the time the paint drips down and faids, time would have automatically healed her. Between this time she would ask herself, "Can't a woman love a man platonically? Or a woman love a woman romantically?" Mil's second year of high school with her friend Jabira was boring yet feasible. However, when one day she meets a classmate in a wedding and finds out their parents know each other, things start to take a turn! The only thing that doesn't change is Mil's and Jabira's humor... "If we were a comedic duo, what would our name be?" "Jabira... Mil.... Ja... il...Jail!" Silence mushroomed over the two.
