Capture A Husband: My Asian Mother's Quest

"What the fuck did you send over, Nicky?" Laurie is screaming over the phone at six fucking o'clock in the morning. "It has a note. And I believe that the message was clear." the name Nicky answered. "Well that's exactly, why I am asking!" she exclaimed angrily, glaring at the innocently looking red leather pill box, that is instantly recognizable as a famous jewelry brand, sitting on her kitchen counter, with a note that says - I heard you cry over a guy, here's a small gift to let you know that I'd marry you anytime. With the familiar scrawling penmanship in the white piece of paper, she would know who sent her the note, even without calling the guy on the phone. *** When the guy you confessed to rejected you, and your two exes came back running—declaring they would marry you any time, what would you do? Would you choose a familiar old love or the one that has your heart but doesn't want you? And to add to the chaos, her mother is on a mission to marry her nearing thirty-something ass to any man who breathes. What should a girl do in such a situation? Run away, of course! But then, how far can you run away until all the life's decisions you screwed up in the past caught up with you and you ended up with no choice but to face them. Welcome to Laurie’s adventure and just to be clear this is not a love story BUT a quest. [WARNING: Some chapters may contain mature R-18 content.] --- Book cover by Sendaline_16

Unexpected Meeting

^-^ 

She entered the side gate of the building that led to the small garden of the apartment. The house was very quiet. She remained standing in the middle of the living room as she scanned the whole room. 

She felt like she was gone for a long time from this apartment but now that she's here, the place looked exactly as she remembered when she left that she felt she didn't leave at all. Which was strange. 

She walked to the foot of the stairs and called Bella's name and didn't hear any reply. She wanted to check the second floor but she felt like she was invading private space since she no longer lived in the house. 

She checked her phone if Bella sent another message and saw none. She knew she's coming and would not leave the house without telling her. As she walked back to the living room, the tatami room caught her eyes. She hurriedly walked to it and took a peek inside for it happened that the door was ajar.
