In the eighth year of our secret office marriage, Marvin lit up every LED screen in Ocean City, just to make his little assistant smile. Amidst the well-wishes from everyone, the assistant cheerfully handed out gifts to the entire office. I casually tossed my gift into the trash. The assistant immediately ran to Marvin's office, tears streaming down her face, to report me. Moments later, Marvin, furious, suspended me from my position. As I walked out of the company building, Marvin's voice echoed from the loudspeakers on the top floor. "Celebrating Wendy's successful completion of her work, the gift is ready!" Wendy—was the assistant's name. As I watched the crowd rush past me, I calmly cut all ties with Marvin. This hidden marriage had come to an end.

Ethan Hayes and I grew up together, but we ended up resenting each other for a lifetime. He blamed me for taking matters into my own hands, forcing his memories back, and causing his true love to jump off a building. I blamed him for going back on his word. He promised to love me forever, but after losing his memory, he fell for someone else. In the early stages of our ten-year marriage, we were as cold as strangers who knew each other too well. When I got diagnosed with ALS, everyone in town urged him to divorce me. He only carried me to a chapel, knelt among the burning candles for an entire day and night, and prayed for a miracle. On my deathbed, he held me through the night, his forehead against my cheek. "I've done my duty to you in this life," he whispered. "If there's a next one, I hope you don't make me remember. Just let me be with her." Tears slid down my face. I finally got it. I shouldn't have chained him down with our teenage love, dragging him through a whole life. When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the day I found Ethan. This time, I chose to let him be with his true love instead of waking his memories.

Masaya na at kuntento kahit naghihirap sa buhay ang dalagang si Janiya. Para sa kanya, lahat ay makakaya at malalagpasan niya basta't kasama niya ang kaisa-iss na lang niyang pamilya- ang Papa Crisanto niya. Pero paano kung isang araw, bigla na lang siyang iwan ng pinakamamahal niyang ama? Iniwan siya nito nang wala kahit maayos na paalam man lang. Iniwan siya nito nang walang kahit ano maliban sa isang pirasong papel kung saan nakasulat ang dalawang address ng mga lugar na hindi niya alam. Isa na roon ang lugar na tinawag nitong "Mansion de Castillejos". Doon umano nakatira ang matalik na kaibigang babae ng ama niya- si Yvonne. Ngunit nang marating na niya ang mansiyon, isang nakakagulat na rebelasyon ang sumampal sa kanya- dalawang taon na palang patay ang babaeng pakay niya. At ang tanging naiwan nito sa mansiyon ay ang katulong na si Gervacia at ang nag-iisa nitong anak na lalaki, si Strike Vicencio o "SV"- isang kilalang CEO hindi lang dahil sa kagwapuhang taglay nito kundi lalo na sa pagiging enigmatiko at misteryoso- na walang pagdadalawang-isip na inako ang pangangalaga sa kanya pansamantala habang hindi pa bumabalik ang ama niya. Ano ang nakatakdang mangyari sa pagsasama nila ng binata sa iisang bubong? At paano kung unti-unti ay makaramdam siya ng pagtatangi sa lalaki? Lalabanan ba niya ang sariling nararamdaman o ipaglalaban at gagawin niya ang lahat para maangkin ang supladong bilyonaryo, kahit na sampung taon ang agwat ng edad nila sa isa't-isa at nalalapit na rin itong ikasal sa iba?
