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

Meeting You

'Friend.' Laurie didn't expect the pain that hit her chest when Jiro asked her if she didn't consider him as a friend. The pain gripped her heart, made her chest prickly that every time she took a breath it was too painful to bear, her eyesight turned hazy and she had to fight for the urge not to blank out. 

"Are we friends?" She heard herself ask Jiro in a steady voice that sounded so unfamiliar in her own ears. 

"I asked you first," Jiro replied with a grim expression on his face. He was about to open his mouth to say something else when he got interrupted when the elevator door opened and a couple of men in black suits got in.
