Sa kalasingan, hindi niya inaasahang mawawala ang kanyang virginity sa isang one-night stand, at ang lalaking ito ay ang kanyang crush noong high school.

Hindi niya inakalang ang CEO ng kumpanya ay ang lalaking kumuha ng kanyang virginity at ang crush niya noong high school. Paano niya haharapin ang mapang-akit na kaniyang boss? Paano niya pipigilan ang pusong umibig, takot na masaktan at muling maranasan ang pag-iisa? Kakayanin niya bang manatili sa trabaho para sa kapakanan ng kaniyang pamilya?

For three agonizing years, my mother struggled with kidney failure. Finally, after all the waiting and the constant dialysis, she was next in line for a transplant. Hope seemed so close. But then, my husband, Zachary Levi, an esteemed nephrology professor, did the unforgivable. He surreptitiously gave his lover's mother the kidney that was intended for my mother. He said almost dismissively, "Ella's mother couldn't wait any longer. Your mother's been on dialysis for so long, she's not going to die anytime soon." Later, my mother passed away. I called Zachary one final time. Yet, it was a woman who answered. "Margaret, right? Zachary's in the shower. Is there something you need?" I stared at my mother's smile on the gravestone, and an overwhelming emptiness spread through me. "It's nothing. Just wanted to talk about the divorce."

He’s been in and out of mental hospitals so many times… “Please, come back. If you don’t, he might die!” I touched the scar on my forehead and gave a bitter smile. “But I’m no longer young or pretty.” She got on her knees and begged, “If you come back, I’ll give you ten million to help pay for your mom’s treatment, no matter what happens.” For my sick mom, I decided to return to Nigel Jefferson. “But now that I’m no longer pretty… would he still love me?”
