The Dying CEO and His Last Hope 39
Harold Thorpe, head of the Thorpe Group — a man who swore off desire — is doomed never to see New Year's Eve. He was born with a pure-yang constitution, a condition that will kill him by the end of the year. Then he discovers Julissa, a struggling college student and intern nurse, who carries the only pure-yin constitution in the world — the one thing that can cure him. To survive, Harold marries her. But when he learns that saving him will cost Julissa her life, a man who was never supposed to fall in love finds himself caught between his own survival and the woman he has come to love.
