You don't need to tell us, but I am trying to figure out what could be the unique set of circumstances that made you overstay for 14 months.

Well I didn't really pay a fine. I had to put up 500 HKD for bail money, which I received back after the court hearing. I also asked the immigration prosecutor officer whether I would be banned or would have trouble with reentry if I should come back and he said no. So I guess everything is ok.
Wow, your story raised my pulse for a while! I can only imagine how nervous you felt waiting for your hearing.
Glad to hear it all worked out well.
