Cinta sejati Samuel Dirja diam-diam mengenakan gaun pengantinku. Saat kami berkelahi, dia yang sedang hamil tidak sengaja terjatuh. Setelah dibawa ke rumah sakit, dokter mengatakan bahwa dia tidak akan bisa hamil lagi. Samuel yang murka pun mengirimkanku ke sebuah biara di luar negeri untuk menjadi biarawati. Setahun kemudian, Samuel datang menjemputku dari biara. Namun, saat dia mengetahui bahwa aku sudah kabur sejak lama dan sekarang menggendong seorang anak, dia memarahiku dengan mata memerah. "Kamu ingin menikah karena memiliki anak, atau kamu ingin menggunakan anak ini untuk menghina Shinta yang nggak bisa hamil?" Samuel tentu tidak tahu bahwa anak ini bukan anaknya. Selain itu, aku pun juga akan segera menikah.

he Heart Beneath the Thorn — A Modern Beauty and the Beast Retelling 💔 In a glittering city of fortunes and façades, The Heart Beneath the Thorn reimagines Beauty and the Beast through the broken glass of betrayal, redemption, and forbidden love. Emilia Grace, a fierce yet quietly bruised soul, is just trying to survive. Between juggling hospital shifts, family debts, and the ghosts of her past, she’s never had the luxury of dreaming. But fate has a cruel sense of humor when she’s assigned to care for Max Carter—the cold-hearted billionaire who once made her school years a waking nightmare. Max was the golden boy with the cruel smirk—the privileged heir with everything, except peace. Years later, a tragic accident leaves him scarred, not just physically but emotionally. Isolated and emotionally exiled, Max is now a man haunted by his past choices and a legacy wrapped in barbed wire. When Emilia walks back into his life, she's no longer the girl he mocked—she's the woman who might just be his undoing. Forced into each other’s orbit, what begins as a war of words slowly melts into lingering stares, late-night confessions, and an unraveling of everything they thought they knew. Max, the beast of her memories, begins to reveal the tender man beneath the mask—a man who collects poetry he never shares, who builds gardens no one sees, and who might have always loved the girl he couldn’t protect. But trust doesn’t bloom easily in thorn-covered soil. And when old enemies, buried secrets, and a scandalous inheritance come to light, Emilia must decide: can she love the man who once broke her, now that he’s the only one trying to piece her back together? A tale of enemies-to-lovers, second chances.
