"If you’re given a chance to live once more, will you take it? Even if… it comes at a cost?" ________________ After working herself to death at a young age, Senara Lee woke up in her younger self. Thankful for a second chance, she made a promise that in this life, she would live for herself. While trying to rediscover her long-lost self, she befriended Kaiden Ma—a pro gamer she met online. What she didn’t know was that he was also the world-known handsome genius and the richest heir of the East. However, he had a little problem. One—he was way too grumpy; and two—he was mysophobic (hates touching). With his condition making it hard to find a partner, and his family pushing him for one, he made a deal with Senara to be his fake ‘girlfriend.’ And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game of fake relationship (with a twist) begins. As Senara journeyed through her second life, alongside Kaiden and their friends, the “Guardians of Fate” laid in wait. What would they do with this romance that wasn’t supposed to be? And what was the cost of this new life she was given? ______________________________ Don't forget to VOTE, COMMENT, and REVIEW Instagram / TiktTok: macy_bae_writes _____________ Please do not plagiarize this book or post it on different platforms.

I hardly managed to gulp down the food I just ate. Of all the times I could slip my tongue… it just had to be when we're alone together. Cold sweat started to trickle down my forehead. Oh my goodness. Please, Kaiden. Pay it no mind. I didn't mean to say it like that. Well, I'd love it if we marry someday but… I didn't want you to find out about it so soon. My heart wasn't ready yet. Please don't take it seriously.
I blinked a couple of times waiting for his reply. Kaiden's face was in total shock from what I just said. Maybe I should try explaining instead?
"Ahm, I—ah… I mean—"
"Pft! Ha-ha-ha! So you'd marry anyone who's good at cooking?" Kaiden laughed hard. "You better not or you might end up marrying all the chefs that you'll meet."
