Win My Husband Over to Find My Child

Witty FL x Adorkable ML + a cute bun + a cute crochet fox ---------- After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Leslie Song has been single-handedly raising her precious little daughter Calliope. It’s a difficult life, but it’s a happy one. A freak accident puts an end to that. As Leslie lies dying on the road, watching Calliope breathe her last, she curses her helplessness. Calliope’s crochet fox seems to hear her. It opens its mouth and asks, “Do you want to see your daughter again? If so, follow me. Her soul has already left for another world.” Leslie agrees. That’s the last thing she remembers before losing consciousness. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself—or rather, her soul—standing beside her unconscious body on a hospital bed. “How is this supposed to help me find Calliope!” she exclaims. “This is not your body. Your body is dead. This is my original host, Charlene Li,” explains the toy fox. “You can possess her body to find Calliope, but if you do, you must finish her uncompleted mission for her.” “And what mission is that?” “To marry the second most eligible CEO in the city.” ‘This,’ Leslie concludes, ‘is a scam.’ But she has no other choice. ********** Meanwhile, the second most eligible bachelor in the city, Calix Xu, is patting himself on the back for thwarting his grandmother’s attempts to marry him off. After exhausting all of his tricks and excuses, he has resorted to marrying the comatose daughter of the Li family. Calix smiles, pleased with himself, "Aren't I smart? Grandmother can do nothing now." But… why is he seeing his newly-wedded wife hovering beside her own body? Before he can react, his wife—the moving one—floats towards him. "Husband! Help me find my child!" “Your child?” Calix asks weakly before doing the only reasonable thing he can do in such a situation. He faints. ---------- WSA 2024 entry!

She Was Bound to Be Surprised No Matter What

Leslie and Calix didn't talk much during their ride home. Both of them were exhausted from spending more energy than usual playing with the children. Yet, one could say none of them regretted going to the orphanage.

Leslie took a quick nap on the flight while Calix was still wide awake. He kept recalling every moment he spent with Leslie and Calliope earlier.

Really, he didn't expect to receive anything from the little one.

Calix handed the box storing Calliope's precious pebbles to Logan for safekeeping. It was placed together with the gifts presented by Director Li.

'Perhaps we can do something with the stones.'

Calix was reminded of the beautiful pebbles and seashells crafts done by Lucille for Amelia. His sister-in-law usually used them to make planters, accented decors and small jewelry.

Calix intended to talk about turning Calliope's pebbles into something with Leslie before proceeding with anything.
