He was a business emperor, legendary for his ruthlessness and cutthroat methods, a man who valued profit over family. When Fiona saved him, he promised her ten million dollars as a reward. But when the condition for the million dollars to arrive was that she marry him, Fiona suddenly responded, "I only wanted the ten million reward, not you!" "You risked your life to save me, and I, Gabriel Robinson, can only repay your kindness by giving you my life.” “You are forcing me, not proposing!” “Then will you marry me?”

"I don't do love. Ang pag-ibig ay tanda ng kahinaan. At hindi ako mahina. I am Olivia Reid!" Siya si Olivia Ried, palaban at mala-diyosa ang angking kagandahan; Kinaiinggitan ng mga kababaihan, kinababaliwan ng mga kalalakihan. Ngunit sa likod ng kanyang tapang at ganda ay may isang nakaraang pilit nyang tinatakasan. Ang nakaraan niyang iyon ang dahilan kung bakit isinumpa niya sa sariling hinding-hindi siya iibig kahit na kailan. Kaya naman kahit na marami ang nahuhumaling sa kanya, binabasted lamang niya ang mga ito. Ngunit isang lalaki ang mukhang hindi tinatalaban sa taglay niyang ganda. Si Gabriel Craig na umpisa pa lang ay halata na ang pagkadisgusto sa kanya. At isang malakas na sampal iyon sa pride ni Olivia Reid. Kaya ang plano niya:: Paibigin si Gabriel Craig at pagkatapos ay iwanang luhaan! Ngunit hawak ni Gabriel ang alas tungkol sa tunay niyang pagkatao. At iyon ang ginagamit nitong panakot para maging sunod-sunuran siya sa bawat naisin nito. Pero gaya nga ng mantra niya sa buhay; She is Olivia Reid. Matalino, madiskarte at hindi palulupig. Sa labanan ng talino at patusuhan, sino ang magwawagi? Si Olivia Reid na ginagamit ang taglay na kagandahan para makuha ang lahat ng gusto sa buhay? O si Gabriel Craig na nakakaalam ng kanyang kahinaan?

Sinimulan ni Ellara ang planong paglapit kay Gabriel kasabay ng pagtalikod sa kanyang tunay nakatauhan. From a rich, popular and happy go lucky girl.

Wherever Gabriel goes, Ellars is always beside her. Kahit na magmukhang desperada Ellara never leave his side. On Gabriel’s birthday, Ellara knew na talo na siya. To make things seems right. She acted the way she used to be. Pero may mga taong matalim ang dila lalo na sa ikakasira at ikakasakit ng damdamin ng iba. Nagkaroon ng pagkukumpara ang iba hanggang sa nadawit na ang pangalan ni Ellara kaya nararamdaman ng babae na dapat niyang ibangon ang kanyang dignidad. “Minsan na akong na talo. I won’t allow you again to defeat me.” Out of nowhere, as a random but smooth revenge in-announce ni Ellara na engage na siya sa anak ng isa sa pinakamayamang angkan sa italya na walang iba kundi si Hector Lombardi na isa sa guest of honor ng event. Agad umahon ang mga haka-haka, walang sino man ang nakakita sa binatang binanggit ni Ellara. Dahil ilang ulit man itong imbatahan wala itong pinaunlakan. Ngunit sa isang iglap dumating ang lalaki claiming Ellara as his fiancee. Nagbago lahat sa paligid kahit si Gabriel ay hindi makapaniwala.
