That isn't fair," I said, my voice cracking. "I cannot marry someone I do not love, no matter how convenient it is for you. "I am not going to do it!" I was shivering with wrath. Madam Angelica sighed heavily, her expression intensifying. "You're being selfish, Anna," she said. "It's not just about you; it's about the entire family and the future. I understand you don't want to marry someone you don't love, but I need you to understand the importance of this decision." I was at a breaking point. I'd always been a polite girl, following what I was taught and never challenging my family's judgment. But this time, I was willing to fight for what I wanted. My joy was too precious to sacrifice for the sake of family responsibilities. "I won't do it," I shouted."I won't be part of this arranged marriage" I clutched my bag firmly and dashed off to work in rage. Anna is forced by her mom to marry a billionaire suitor Kevin Beyer in order to save her family from the debt her late father caused them. Her mother reluctantly approves of the marriage without caring about Anna's feelings, Anna was left with no other choice than to marry Kevin. Anna wondered how Johnny, her boyfriend, would feel when he heard about this and how she would cope with the rest of her life as the wife of a man she didn't love. She knew that this arrangement would be difficult, but she had no other choice. Would she ever find true love or happiness in this situation ? What did her lover do on hearing about this marriage?

Sa kagustuhang makatakas sa kamay ng mga hindi kilalang dumukot sa kanya ay nabundol siya ng sasakyan dahilan kung bakit naratay siya ng matagal sa Hospital. Ngunit sa kanyang pagising ay wala siyang maalala sa nakaraan maging ang kanyang pangalan. Halos mawalan na siya ng pag-asa sa sarili dahil sa malaking pinsala na natamo ng kanyang katawan. Kinupkop siya ni Carlos Montenegro ang lalaking nakabangga sa kanya inaalagaan siya nito, binihisan at binigyan ng pangalan. Lubos niyang hinangaan ang binata at hindi niya maikakailang may nararamdaman na siya para rito subalit unti-unti nang bumabalik ang kanyang alaala at patuloy siyang tinutugis ng kanyang nakaraan...nang kanyang mga nagawang kasalanan na kailangan niyang pagbayaran lalong lalo na sa binata. Hindi maatim ng kanyang konsensya kaya bago pa ang lahat ay inunahan niya na ito. Sa pamamagitan ng liham ay ipinagtapat niya ang Katotohan ng kanyang pagkatao at sa kanyang pagtalikod ng gabing iyon ay kasabay na rin doon ang paglimot sa binata. Hindi rin nakaligltas sa pandinig Kay Carlos ang pag-alis ni Rose. May parte sa puso niyang pigilan ang dalaga subalit nanaig parin ang galit at pagkasuklam niya rito. Para sa kanya walang karapatang mabuhay ang taong pumatay sa pinakamamahal niyang nobya na si Angelica at isinusumpa niyang magdurusa ito habang buhay subalit paano niya lalabanan ang damdaming iyon kung laging ipinapaalala sa kanya ang magandang imahe ng dalaga lalong lalo pa at dinadala nito sa sinapupunan ang nag-iisang maging tagapagmana ng kaniyang angkan.
