Love Can’t be
Updated at Aug 21, 2026, 03:32
Everyone’s life looks perfect from the outside. People try their best not to look like what they are going through. However, fate always has a way of disrupting this chaotic peace. Esme and Devian were not left out. The celebrity chef Esme De-Brown has everything she could ever ask for, wealth, fame, beauty and skills. But it still couldn’t get her the love she always yearned for. And on a random day, her life is disrupted by a flight back home that sends leukemia and Devian Lexton her way. Devian Lexton is a young professor and billionaire heir to a wealthy empire, but under the influence of his mom who pilots her life, up to pushing him into being a priest. Their meeting doesn’t start off on a good track, but thanks to forced proximity of a doctor and his patient, lines begin to blur between their feelings towards each other. However, will a love that is forbidden by the society, threatened by Esme’s health and under the weight of long buried familial grudge survive?
