Ang kuwento ay umiikot sa isang simpleng babae na nagtatrabaho bilang warehouse helper sa isang kumpanya. Tahimik ang kanyang buhay hanggang sa biglang magkasakit ang kanyang ina at mangailangan ng agarang operasyon. Dahil kapos sa pera, napilitan siyang maghanap ng dagdag na pagkakakitaan. Labag man sa kalooban niya ay pumasok siya bilang Escort sa isang bar. Dito niya nakilala ang isang lalaki, handa siyang tulungan nito kapalit na kailangan niya rin itong tulungan dahil kailangan ng lalaki na may babaeng ipapakilala sa magulang niya bilang fiancee. Dahil kailangan daw munang maikasal ng lalake bago nito makuha ang mana mula sa magulang niya. Laking gulat ng pamilya ng lalaki nang malaman nila kung sino ang babaeng napiling pakasalan ng kanilang anak. Nadiskubre nilang ang babae ay biological daughter ng kanilang matagal nang karibal sa negosyo. Nalaman nilang pinaampon ang babae noong bata pa siya upang maitago ang kanyang tunay na identity at mailayo sa magulong mundo ng kapangyarihan at yaman. Nakita ng pamilya ng lalaki ang pagkakataon na gamitin ang babae laban sa kanilang karibal sa negosyo. Pinlano nilang ituloy ang kasal bilang bahagi ng kanilang corporate strategy, para mapabagsak ang pamilya ng babae. Habang tumatagal, ang dating kontrata ay nauwi sa tunay na pagmamahalan. Dalawang araw bago ang kasal, nalaman ng babae ang kanyang tunay na identity. Iniisip niya kung itutuloy pa ba ang kasal sa kabila ng kasinungalingan, o talikuran ang lahat upang protektahan ang sarili niya. Nang malaman ng lalaki ang tunay na plano ng kanyang mga magulang, tumutol siya rito. Handa siyang talikuran ang mana at labanan ang sariling pamilya para sa babaeng minahal niya. Sa gitna ng corporate rivalry, family politics, at personal betrayal, kailangang magdesisyon ang dalawa kung ang kanilang pagmamahalan ay sapat upang lampasan ang mga lihim at interes na bumabalot sa kanilang relasyon.

The night before my wedding, my mom got into a car accident—she needed a blood transfusion, fast. Her blood type was rare. Mine matched. I was pregnant, but I didn't think twice. I donated. While I was bleeding out, losing my baby, my fiancé, Joffrey Habsburg, and his brother—my so-called childhood friend—Mateo, were busy holding Nancy's hand during her cosmetic surgery. I begged Joffrey to save my mom. Only then did he bother to pick up a scalpel. When it was over, he said, "Surgery failed. She's gone." Two days later, I overheard Nancy purring through the door, wrapped around the Habsburg brothers. "Mateo really is a racer—he hit that old hag dead on. And Joffrey? You were amazing too, making sure she didn't survive the surgery. Thanks to you both, I got Lori's blood for my operation."

The 99th time Owen Anderson slides a ring onto my finger, his adopted sister, Monica Morgan, calls again. And just like that, for the 99th time, he ditches me at the altar to be with her, who's having another depressive episode. I'm fed up. I yell after him as he walks away, "Go ahead! Walk out on me, and I swear I'll marry someone else!" He doesn't even flinch. Instead, he snaps, "Can you stop being so unreasonable? We can get married anytime, but Monica's the only sister I've got." Then, he turns and walks away, leaving me standing there like a complete fool. What he doesn't realize is that this time, I mean it. Later, when he gets down on one knee for the 100th time, his older brother, Chris, slips an arm around my waist and says, "Sorry, Owen. She's your sister-in-law now."

At the underground auction house, tonight's grand finale was billed as a 'premium wolf pet'. Inside the cage, a male wolf knelt with a bite-prevention muzzle locked around his neck. He was clearly a prisoner, yet his eyes held no trace of submission when he lifted his head. Instead, he looked like he was judging every single person in the room. His gaze cut through the crowd and locked onto me. My heart stuttered as excitement flooded my system. I finally knew what true attraction felt like. A well-dressed man in the front row raised his paddle. "$100 million." Gasps erupted across the venue. It was an astronomical opening bid. I smiled and slowly raised my paddle too. My voice brought the hall to dead silence. "$500 million."

William Graham and Jasmine Spencer had been at odds since they were kids. But that year, fate played a trick on them—out of all the eligible matches in their circle, only the two of them were left. William swore he would rather die than marry Jasmine. That piqued her interest. She said, "Great. Then I guess I'm definitely marrying you. Go ahead and drop dead." On their wedding day, William humiliated her by releasing dozens of chickens at the ceremony. With a flat look, Jasmine picked one up and called it "Darling". Just like that, William lost all interest in the joke. He looked at the woman who insisted on marrying him and sneered. "You'll regret this." Three years into the marriage, Jasmine caught William cheating for the ninety-ninth time. It was only then that she finally understood— So this was the kind of regret William had meant.

Ethan smiled. “Nothing. I love hearing you say my name. It sounds so good to hear it from your mouth.” "Oh! You’re teasing me!” I pouted. “You’re mean. You know I’m in a weak state right now, but you take advantage of my situation and tease me.” "Helena Starr.” I stopped when he mentioned my full name. “Yes?” "Your name is appropriate for you since your blue eyes shine brightly like stars.” It was unexpected, so I bent my head and blushed again. “Oh, thank you.” If he kept saying sweet things like that, how could I survive?
