She transferred schools thinking the worst that could happen was a few awkward introductions. Instead she met a handsome troublemaker who stole seats, sparked fights, and—without warning—saved her from a predator. Years later she is sensible, independent, and quietly proud of the life she’s built. He returns not as a reckless schoolboy but as a hard-edged CEO who remembers a single, painful rejection. He thinks he buried that feeling with distance and ambition. He was wrong. This is a story about a girl who learned to stand on her own and a man who finally understands what he lost. One confession, one refusal, and six years of silence left them with a debt neither knew how to repay. When fate drags them back into the same orbit, both must decide: fix what was broken, or walk away again. This time, neither will let pride win without a fight.
