But the truth is—it’s all fake. It only takes one day to convince the people, friends, or family of her client that their son is truly married. After that, they immediately part ways.

Because once the contract ends, she vanishes like a bubble. That’s how Elswyth’s job ends. She’s known as Elly Mendoza—no one is allowed to know her real name. Everything changed when Elly met her new client: a wealthy man known as The Cold Heartless Men—Killian Rexander Morelli-Azaleano. The young men had no intention of ending their three-month contract as his girlfriend. But because of what she signed, Elly’s life becomes even more complicated. Killian begins searching for Elly’s true identity and real name—something Elly fears deeply. So even before the contract ends, she leaves and returns the payment. But this is where their game of hide-and-seek begins.
