SYNOPSIS

Scarlett River Dawn, at twenty-eight, has achieved her childhood dream of becoming a renowned pastry chef. Born into a sophisticated family of professors, with siblings who are also thriving, she is no stranger to success. Despite her accomplishments, she remains humble; her family's upbringing ensured her feet always stayed firmly on the ground. True to her middle name, she flows through life like a river.

Yet she harbors a secret desire that she cannot share out loud. Deep within, she carries a fear that keeps her emotionally guarded. So, she hides herself away locking into her own world while holding onto her strong yet fragile heart. But at times, her heart quivers in dull aches thinking how unfortunate fate can be!

Phoenix Lincoln Wyatt is a thirty-five-year-old architect and the owner of Phoenix Holdings Ltd. Coming from an aristocratic background, he embodies power, luxury, and intellectualism. A man of few words, he is largely oblivious to social circles, preferring the solitude of his work. However, as the eldest son, he is bound by filial duty and a family legacy he must uphold.

For five years, Phoenix has remained nonchalant regarding his personal life. Despite being betrothed at thirty against his will, he had once flatly opposed the arrangement in private and even quite firmly that outsiders don't know. Though he turned a blind eye to this matter while focusing on his career, his grandfather has now begun to demand he fulfill his obligations.

Scarlett and Phoenix walk different paths, each bound by their own destiny. While Phoenix struggles against the chains of family tradition, Scarlett finds herself reluctant to move past the feelings she has held since her early twenties. Phoenix oblivious to her feelings & existence in his personal life, as she navigates various marriage prospects, she still cannot erase the image of the one who truly holds her heart.

Follow their journey to know how these two souls find their way to one another in this slice-of-life, slow-burn love story.
