"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.

Before proceeding any further, I took the box of tissue from the table beside me and gave it to Crystal. She took some to wipe her tears and blow her nose. I waited for her to calm down before I spoke again. Few minutes passed and finally, she was back to smiling.
"Feeling better?" I asked her.
"Yes. Sorry. I don't know why I suddenly cried."
"It's okay. No need to be sorry. And thank you for opening up to me."
"No. Thank YOU for listening."
"You know, Crystal. One thing I learned in life and from the books I've read before is that… we shouldn't worry too much about something that hasn't happened yet. There's thousands of possibilities, or even millions actually, and if we're to worry about them every single time, we'll be stressed out."
