Gaining wealth and having everything you ever wanted at such a young age was not really heaven when you needed to deal with your past trauma and intense fear of abandonment by your loved ones. Because money might allow you to impress someone temporarily, but without commitment, the other person might suffer and leave. That was the case for Nathaniel Anderson (Niel), a narcissistic young billionaire who became the sole heir of his late grandfather's inheritance, making him richer than his own parents who abandoned him when he was just a baby. He had a long crush on Haylee Johnson, his classmate during high school. During senior year, she got into trouble and her mother chased her away from home. Being deeply in love with her, Niel rescued her and sheltered her, giving her everything he could, except for one, his love. He couldn't give his love to her for fear that she might one day abandon him. So, to make her stay, he gaslighted her unintentionally, making her thought that she would be an ungrateful person if she ever leaves him. However, being young and wild, Niel couldn't resist the temptation of having a good time and playing around with the other girls. He dated a lot of them, but nothing lasted, which convinced him even more, that the same thing would happen if he ever date Haylee. So, he decided strictly to not date her despite knowing that she loved him too. Would Haylee stay inside such a painful meaningless relationship and convinced Niel to commit to her? Or would she leave and find a better man for herself?
