Limang taon na ang nakalipas mula nang talikuran ni Nica Mendoza ang lalaking minahal niya higit pa sa sariling buhay. Sa kapalit ng limang milyong piso—at isang pangakong ililigtas ang kanyang ina—iniwan niya si Rafael Watson, ang nag-iisang lalaking pinangarap niyang makasama habang-buhay. Ngunit ang kapalit ng kanyang sakripisyo ay hindi kapayapaan… kundi impiyernong walang tigil. Ngayo’y muli silang nagtagpo—ngunit hindi bilang magkasintahan, kundi bilang amo at kasambahay. Si Rafael, ang ngayon ay tinaguriang Cold Billionaire, ay walang ni katiting na init ng damdamin sa kanyang mga mata. Sa bawat titig, bawat utos, at bawat sarkastikong ngiti niya, ramdam ni Nica ang galit... ang hinanakit... at ang pagnanasang tila hindi nawala sa kabila ng taon. Sa loob ng apat na pader ng marangyang mansion, isang mapanganib na laro ng damdamin ang magsisimula. Isang larong puno ng pagsisisi, pagkakaila, at mga lihim na matagal nang ibinaon sa limot. Pero paano kung ang larong ito ay muling mag-alab—mas mainit, mas delikado, at mas makasalanan? Sa pagitan ng galit at pagnanasa, alin ang pipiliin—ang paglimot o ang muling pagtikim sa isang bawal na pagmamahalan?

Wracked with guilt, I honored her dying wish and married her husband. After the wedding, I sold my blood and even a kidney just to make ends meet, raising my stepdaughter with everything I had. Eventually, she fulfilled her dream of winning the Best Actress Award and was about to marry the richest man in the country. But just as I was preparing to give a speech at her wedding, I saw my best friend, who had been dead for over a decade.

The shock sent me into a cerebral hemorrhage. When I opened my eyes again, I had gone back to the day she drowned.
