Her only mistake, is to love the wrong person.

She's the daughter of a rich family. Her dad gave her love, beauty, money...and too arrogant a heart. She doesn't know the world as the dirty place it is. It's only good for her.

And that's why she fell in love with a nothing guy. A guy with no money, no ability, and not even decent respect to her.

She found his cold attitude toward her special, and she loved him with all she had until...

She found him in bed with her best friend.

He only kept her around for everything she has but her. She has no doubt that he would have left her if her best friend spends half the money she does on him.

Standing outside of the hotel room where her "beloved" fiance is having sex with her best friend, she stares at the text that lured her here from an unknown number, drowning in deep thoughts.

How did she end up like this?

"Heartbroken?" A tease rose beside her. She frowns, doesn't want to look up -- she knew who it was.

Her nemesis. A playboy from another rich family just like hers. The guy who is just as arrogant as her, plus humiliating her with all the chances he gets.

Just like now.

"Not gonna stay for the whole show?" He laughs when she turns and leaves, following her like the annoying jerk he is.

"Leave me alone!" She grunts at him, not in the mood.

"Don't even want to take revenge?" He doesn't care about her attitude at all, "I might be able to help."

"Help with what?!"

"You know why he's doing this, right? Because you got engaged with him, and he thinks he got you," He smirks, standing in her way, "your father's business is going to take a huge blow if you break up with him now."

She bites her lips, calming down now.

He is right.

"Marry me."

"What?!" She opens her eyes wide, staring at the man smirking at her. Saying the most sacred words, using the most taunting tone.

"I need a marriage to take over my old man's business," he shrugs, "and you need a new fiance to get out of your disgusting trouble."

Never in a million years has she imagined talking about marriage with the most annoying guy on earth, but...

"Contract marriage." She looks up like the proud princess she is, "It's just to help each other out!"

"Deal." He curves his lips.

God knows for how long has he been waiting for her, and how painful it has been for him to watch her loving the wrong person who doesn't deserve her.

Watching his prey stepping in his trap, he smiles gently as he hold out his hand to her: "This way then, my queen."
