Celestia Quinn Vircacel came from a wealthy family. She had an almost perfect life, not until her father's new girlfriend came into their lives. Since then, her life was controlled and she was deprived of freedom.Her father became strict with her, thanks to the influence of his new woman. But that wasn't the worst part. She learned that her father arranged for her to marry someone she didn't know! She would never live her life being controlled like a robot, and she would never marry a man she did not love, let alone a complete stranger! Thus, she decided to run away. Unfortunately, her father learned about this and stopped her. He made a deal that if she would agree to sign the marriage contract, he would allow her to live her life away from their house; otherwise, she stays and lives with her father's controlling girlfriend for life. The proposition was like choosing between the devil and the deep blue sea, but she had to choose one and she chose freedom. Hence, she blindly signed the marriage contract and left the house.

a heavy burden that I carried for nine long years. It was hard to admit to myself that Carlos Sky never really loved me, despite all the efforts I made to win him over. I even tried to use the divorce and the company he owned, Sky Corporation, as a way to bargain for him to give me attention and love. But he remained indifferent, insensitive to my feelings and my desperate attempts to win him over. It was a moment of great sadness and disappointment when I realized that he never cared about me in the same way that I cared about him. After the divorce, I had time to reflect on what happened and finally realized that the so-called "love" I felt for Carlos Sky was one-sided. I had deluded myself for years, believing that he loved me, when in reality he never showed this feeling for me. The hardest thing was to admit to myself that I loved someone who never loved me back. It was painful to face the reality that all the time, effort, and energy I put into this relationship was for nothing. Learning to let go of this unrequited love and move on with my life was a difficult journey, but necessary for my own emotional health and well-being. Today, I look back with a mixture of sadness and relief. It was a difficult experience, but I also learned a lot about myself and the true meaning of love. I learned that true love is mutual, it involves reciprocity and respect. It is not something that can be forced or won through negotiations.
