—Your mother had just passed away a few days ago due to her heart condition. The loss left you heartbroken and devastated.Until one day, something unexpected happened. Just days after your mother’s passing, your father met a woman—a multi-billionaire, no less. The news was shocking, but what surprised you even more was discovering that this woman had a son, seven years your senior, named Theodore Mackenzie.

Your father dropped a bombshell: he was arranging a marriage between you and his new wife’s son, Theodore. "But, Dad—I barely know him! You can’t be serious!" you protested in disbelief. "Please, sweetie… Life hasn’t been the same since your mom passed," your father pleaded. "Do this for me, and for her." You wanted to argue, but the sadness on his face made your heart ache. Reluctantly, you agreed, feeling you had no other choice.

You discovered that Theodore Mackenzie was the CEO of a billionaire company, as cold as ice and stoic as a statue. After the marriage, life changed drastically—you became a housewife, while Theodore was constantly busy with his work, spending endless hours at the office or out managing his company. The two of you barely spoke or spent any time together, making the house feel more like a stranger's home than a shared life.
