To avoid an arranged marriage, Anna runs away and is hit by the car of Harry, a wealthy widower with one child. Then Anna has a crazy idea; she asks Harry to marry her. Of course, Harry refuses, but Harry's little daughter likes Anna so much that Harry is forced to accept the fake relationship. Anna's sincerity towards the little girl has opened Harry's eyes, and their closeness makes them feel that they need each other. But who would have thought the man Anna had rejected was obsessed with her and held a grudge to get her back? They work together to destroy Anna and Harry.

Chapter 1 Ran Away From Home

A car was moving at a slow speed with a handsome man driving and an eight-year-old girl on her device beside him. Suddenly, a woman screamed and fell, causing the car to stop abruptly. "What happened, Dad?" Amelia asked, surprised. "It seems like I hit someone," Harry replied, a little nervous.

The two of them rushed out, and sure enough, a girl was lying right in front of Harry's car.

"Oh, Lord!" Amelia let out a muffled scream while covering her mouth. "Dad, is she dead?" Amelia asked innocently. Harry checked the unconscious girl; he placed his finger on the girl's nose, and she breathed a sigh of relief. "She just fainted."

"Then what, Dad?" Amelia asked, afraid. "We'll take her to the hospital." Harry said. The two of them took the girl to the hospital, where the doctor did an examination. Harry and his daughter waited anxiously.

Anna woke up in a typical hospital room and immediately noticed the strong smell of antiseptic. "Hospital?" she mumbled softly. She remembered what had happened to her instantly. The grandmother worried that Anna hadn't brought her boyfriend home, tried to match her with a stranger.

The man appeared to be acceptable both in terms of his physical health and his wealth. However, Anna felt uneasy under his intense gaze, which seemed to be suffocating her. As a result, she decided to leave immediately. But before she could take any action, a bright light suddenly appeared and blinded her. Shortly after, everything went dark.

Suddenly, the door to the room opened, and not long after, a man who Anna was sure was a doctor came in accompanied by two women in nurse uniforms.

"Good evening, Miss Joanna." The doctor said.

Anna looked at the doctor in a daze before finally saying, "Evening, doc. What happened to me?"

"You were unconscious after you fell when you were hit by the car," he explained, "so we will carry out another examination."

"Okay, Doc," Anna said. Immediately afterwards, the doctor and medical team carried out a detailed examination for 35 minutes. Anna was relieved when the doctor said there were no serious injuries. However, an MRI will still be carried out to ensure there are no internal injuries, especially on Anna's head.

"Doctor, who brought me here?" Anna asked when she saw the doctor getting ready to leave the room. She remembered that it was impossible to have reached the hospital alone after being hit.

"Oh, yes. They are at the front," answered the doctor. "They will come in shortly."

Anna nodded in agreement. But she felt a little dizzy and closed her eyes. She didn't notice a man and a cute little girl enter the room. Suddenly, a baritone voice startled her, causing her to open her eyes. The man asked, "Good evening, miss. How are you feeling now?"

Anna gazed at the two people standing in front of her, feeling disoriented. After a moment, she managed to speak. "I... um... my head is still spinning," she said. The man in front of her nodded sympathetically. "You should rest," he advised. "The doctor said you weren't seriously injured, just in shock." He handed her a bottle of water, and Anna gratefully took a drink. It was a stroke of luck, as she had been feeling quite thirsty.

"What's your name?" asked the petite girl. "I'm Amelia. This is my Dad, Harry." Anna looked at Amelia, who smiled. Unknowingly, Anna smiled back at the child. "I'm Joanna, call me Anna," she said. The child nodded.

Before handing over Anna's bag, Amelia suddenly hit herself on the forehead. "I almost forgot! Anna, these are your things," she said. Anna held back a laugh and replied, "Thank you, dear." Her gaze then moved back to Harry.

"Sorry, were you guys the ones who brought me here?" She asked. Harry, who had been silent until now, immediately nodded. "That's right, you were lying unconscious in front of my car. So, I immediately brought you here."

"That means you hit me," Anna said. "It wasn't on purpose because you suddenly passed while running," explained Harry. "Luckily, my car was slow so nothing serious happened."

Anna smiled awkwardly–feeling bad. With her escaping, how many people have been troubled? Of course, her family is now also panicking because they haven't found her, even though Anna is known as a brave girl. However, Anna suddenly got goosebumps when she remembered her grandmother. If she returned now, would that woman still force her into marriage? Additionally, the man she was betrothed to might seek revenge.

"Miss Anna, are you okay?" Harry asked, bringing Anna out of her reverie. Anna looked up and saw Harry and Amelia. Suddenly, a crazy idea popped into her head!

"My head feels so heavy. You have to take responsibility for hitting me," Anna said seriously.

The man assured her that he would be responsible for all her medical expenses and would request further examinations from the doctor.

Anna shook her head when Harry mentioned accountability. "I don't need to cover medical expenses," she said. "What do you mean by responsibility?" Harry looked confused.

Anna took a deep breath, mentally preparing herself, and then looked firmly at Harry. "Marry me," she said.

"What?" Harry was shocked and rounded his eyes.
