Win My Husband Over to Find My Child

Witty FL x Adorkable ML + a cute bun + a talking 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!

A Quaint Wooden Hut Nestling Near the Shore

"Oh! Flowers!"

"For you, my love."

Leslie was surprised with an array of fresh flowers once Calix opened the backseat of the four-wheel-drive truck. Chuckles slipped out of her lips, earning a fond smile from him.

Taking one of the bouquets, Calix handed the flowers to Leslie with care. A sheepish smile hung on his lips as he uttered, "I hope to make tonight special and memorable for you."

A tint of pink blush colored Leslie's cheeks. She took the bouquet from Calix before bringing it closer to her face. The sweet fragrance rose to the tip of her nose, alleviating her nerves.

"Thank you, honey," Leslie's smile widened while her blush deepened, "I believe it'll be special and memorable for us both."

Calix let out a throaty chuckle. Dipping his head in, he pressed his lips on the corner of Leslie's. He was tempted to give her a deep kiss but, right now was not the suitable time.
