Jenine Ysabelle Guevarra, a simple Senior High School teacher at De La Salle University, had a conservative and old-fashioned approach to life. This led to her first boyfriend leaving her for a wealthy, sexy, and liberated woman. Since then, Jenine had become aloof with men and hadn't found a boyfriend until she reached the age of 32. For her, it was better to stay single than to get hurt again. Fate, however, had other plans. Jenine was assigned to teach the worst ABM section, where she met Huxley Baltimore, the younger brother of the man who had broken her heart. Huxley was handsome, rich, arrogant, rebellious, and a troublemaker, feared by everyone. At 20 years old, he hadn't finished Senior High because he kept dropping out of school. Even with his antics, he couldn't be expelled from the university because his family owned it. From the very first day in Huxley's class, Jenine experienced the headaches of unruly and noisy students. This was a tremendous challenge to her profession, and she wouldn't give up until she tamed these spoiled brats. However, Huxley challenged not just her profession but also her heart, manipulating her for his own game to get her fired from the university. Jenine was about to be kicked out, but Huxley intervened, saying, "I'd rather be expelled from here than lose such an outstanding teacher."
