Celeste meets the man again in an unexpected situation. She learned that he was Raff Alcantara, an excellent doctor who operated on her brother, and most of all, he was her boyfriend's uncle.

Otherwise, you'll be standing alone at the damn altar, waiting for the bride who ditched you for a wealthier man.
