Si Dianne Abrenica, isang dalagang probinsyana na walang karanasan sa pag-ibig, ay pumasok sa isang nakakabagbag-damdaming desisyon—ang maging surrogate mother ng pinakamayamang pamilya sa Davao, ang mga Manalo. Isang birhen at NBSB (No Boyfriend Since Birth), handa siyang isakripisyo ang lahat para sa kanyang kapatid na nangangailangan ng kidney transplant. Ang kontratang ito ang nagdala sa kanya sa isang mundo ng yaman at kapangyarihan, ngunit kasama rin nito ang masalimuot na emosyon at mga hamong hindi niya inaasahang mararanasan. Sa kabilang panig, si Drake Manalo, ang CEO ng Manalo Canning Food Industry, ay isang lalaking puno ng kahanga-hangang katangian—gwapo, matipuno, mayaman, at mapagmahal sa kanyang asawa. Nang pumasok si Dianne sa kanilang buhay, tila lahat ay naging maayos, hanggang sa isang trahedya ang biglang yumanig sa kanilang mundo. Ang biglaang pagkamatay ni Tiffany sa isang car accident ay nagdulot ng matinding sugat kay Drake. Sa panahong nagdadalamhati si Drake, andiyan si Dianne na naging sandigan at karamay nito. Dito, natutong magmahal si Dianne—hindi lamang sa sanggol na kanyang dinadala kundi pati na rin kay Drake, isang lalaking naging bahagi ng kanyang mga pangarap. Habang papalapit ang araw ng pagsilang, nahaharap si Dianne sa isang mahirap na desisyon. Ang kanilang kontrata ay malinaw—wala siyang karapatang kumonekta sa bata pagkatapos ng kanyang pagsilang. Ngunit paano niya maiiwan ang anak na kanyang minahal at itinuring na bahagi ng kanyang pagkatao? Paano niya haharapin ang mga damdaming namuo para kay Drake, isang lalaking bihag pa rin ng alaala ng kanyang yumaong asawa? Si Drake, isang lalaking unti-unting natutong muling buksan ang kanyang puso, at si Dianne, isang babaeng handang ipaglaban ang kanyang nararamdaman, ay sabay na naghahanap ng sagot sa tanong: Makakaya ba nilang buuin ang bagong buhay na nilikha ng sakripisyo, pagmamahal, at pag-asa?

After receiving the news that her husband had died during a mission, my sister-in-law collapsed from the shock. When she woke up, she'd lost her memory. She clung to my husband and refused to let go. Our husbands were twin brothers. The doctor said she couldn't be triggered, so my husband and mother-in-law sat me down and begged me to play along until she got over this. Every time I brought it up again, they shut me down. "This is only until she gets her memory back!" So I watched as my husband and his widowed sister-in-law eat, sleep, and live under the same roof. Even our daughter could only stand by and watch her cousin call him "Daddy". One day, my daughter spiked a high fever and wouldn't wake up. I begged my husband to take us to the hospital. Unexpectedly, his sister-in-law went berserk over it and threatened to kill herself. In the chaos, I was stabbed in the heart by the scissors she swung around. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back to the day my husband agreed to play the role of a substitute husband.

Panni never intended to steal her twin sister’s life. She only agreed to help with one simple favor—pretend to be Annie for a single meeting. But the moment she stepped into an elite private restaurant and faced Jinyan Lu, the cold, brilliant CEO of Lu Corporation, she realized nothing about this meeting was simple. Jinyan, still bound by his late grandmother’s dying wish to “find someone who will stay by your side,” had prepared a contract marriage proposal. He believed the woman sitting before him—Panni in disguise—was the one who had already agreed to the arrangement. Bound by fear, circumstance, and her sister’s disappearance, Panni reluctantly stepped into a life that wasn’t hers, signing a contract that would entangle her fate with a man who trusted no one. As she plays the role of the polished, confident twin, Panni struggles to hide her true identity while navigating the cold walls of the Lu family mansion, the scrutiny of the company board, and the unspoken expectations placed upon the future Mrs. Lu. But her biggest challenge is Jinyan Lu himself—distant yet unexpectedly protective, calculating yet quietly vulnerable. What begins as a practical arrangement slowly turns into a dangerous emotional territory neither can control. When Jinyan starts falling for the woman he believes is Annie, Panni is torn between duty and desire, truth and revival. Every moment she stays by his side deepens the lie… and the attachment. But secrets don’t stay buried forever. When the real twin retraces and hidden agendas threaten the fragile bond forming between them, Panni must decide whether to walk away—or fight for a love built on borrowed identity.
