[WARNING: SPG] Gwapo, playboy at malakas ang appeal. Iilan lang iyan sa mga katangian ng bilyonaryong si Kian Fuentavilla kaya napakaraming babaeng nagkakadarapa sa kanya—maliban kay Jhymea Madrigal. Isang dalagang manang kung manamit at madalas pang napagkakamalang lola at mambabarang. Panget si Jhymea, at aminado naman siya roon, pero para sa kanya ay may karapatan pa rin naman siyang mamili kaya inayawan niya si Kian na kahit mala-Adonis na ang datingan ay ubod naman ng yabang. Unang pagkikita pa lang ng dalawa ay nagkairingan na sila. Labis na dinibdib ni Jhymea na tinawag siyang ‘janitress’ at ‘ipis’ ng binata at ganun din si Kian sa kanya nang mapunit ang pwètan ng slacks nito dahil sa dalaga. Halos isumpa nila ang isa't isa hanggang napagdesisyunan ng kapatid ni Kian na si Nexie Fuentavilla na mag one-night stand silang dalawa. Kapalit nun ay ang impormasyong hinihingi ni Kian tungkol sa ex niyang si Tanya, at pera naman para kay Jhymea para mapauwi na niya sa bansa ang ina niyang OFW na kay tagal niyang ‘di nakasama. Dahil sa pagiging maloko ni Kian ay pinalabas niyang nabutas ang còndom na ginamit niya sa pakikipagtalik sa dalaga. Ilang linggo iyong iniyakan ni Jhymea kasi ang buong akala niya ay hindi na siya makaka-graduate, ngunit nahuli niya ang binata nung minsan ay may kausap ito sa telepono at inamin nito ang lahat. Doon ay naisip na gumanti ni Jhymea at pinalabas na totoong nabuntis nga siya ng binata. Nakarating ang tsismis na yun sa ina ni Kian na si Mrs. Anita Fuentavilla. Nagkukumahog na nagpaliwanag ang dalawa na hindi totoo ang lahat pero huli na kasi nagawan na sila ng kontrata ng ginang sa nalalapit nilang kasal. Matakasan kaya nila ang kapalarang nagsimula sa isang laro lamang? O mauuwi na ang lahat sa totoong pag-iibigan?
