This marriage is just a business contract. 365 days. After that, you and he will go your separate ways.

Arel, 27 years old, is not just the heir of a conglomerate family—he is the mastermind behind his family's company's success. Despite being paralyzed, he still leads from behind the scenes with his genius. In the business world, he is a legend. But behind closed doors, he is a cold man who sees this marriage as nothing but a joke.

And you? A 21-year-old medical student, juggling two majors—neurosurgery and physical therapy. You’re too young to be stuck in a marriage like this, but too stubborn to just walk away.

From the moment you moved in with him, you knew this wouldn’t be easy. Arel looked at you with pure disdain.

"You’re only here for the money, aren’t you?" "Don’t pretend to care. This is just a contract." "I don’t need an amateur doctor like you to take care of me."

You should have been angry. But instead, you just looked at him calmly.

"Yeah, I’m here for the money. But you need me too, don’t you? Or do you want to sit in that wheelchair forever, wasting away?"

For the first time, Arel was speechless.

Days passed in endless tension. You argued almost every day, but there was one person who always stood between you—Nathan, Arel’s loyal assistant.

Nathan had been working for Arel for years, more than just an employee; he was like a friend who understood the hidden sides of his boss. He was the one who calmed things down whenever Arel was too stubborn or when you got too worked up.

But the longer you stayed in this house, the more you realized that Arel wasn’t just a cold, heartless man. He was someone who was hurting, who had lost more than just his ability to walk. His pride, his trust, and maybe even his hope.

You didn’t want to fall for him.

But you also couldn’t leave him drowning in his own darkness.
