Pressured to get married or lose her father's financial support to pay for her mother's medical bills, Joanna Baker, the illegitimate daughter of the Baker family, is devastated when her boyfriend chooses another woman over her on their wedding day. Joanna, feeling distraught, witnesses a man in a wheelchair proposing to his girlfriend at a restaurant. The girlfriend's rejection and subsequent insult for his disability left everyone stunned. Feeling a shared sense of betrayal, she approaches the man with a vengeful proposition. “Excuse me, sir. Your girlfriend dumped you, and my boyfriend chose another woman over me. Let's get married for six months and get revenge on them." What will Joanna do when she finds out the man she proposed marriage to was none other than Alexander King, the heir of the wealthiest family in NYC? He was also the cold CEO of King Multinational, with a hidden identity, Salvatore Black, whose name caused even presidents shiver? Has she just signed a deal with the devil?
Alex thought carefully and asked seriously, "If Logan were in a wheelchair after you two got together, would you have loved him the same or considered marrying him?"
He had a special reason for asking the question, hoping for Joanna's honesty.
She frowned, wondering about the reason for such a question, but she had an answer ready, so there was no point in overthinking it.
"Yes, I loved him for who he was. I didn't even know he was your brother, and I wouldn't have cared if he had any disabilities."
The kindness Logan showed her in the beginning left a lasting impression, leading her to love him unconditionally, regardless of any challenges he might face.
But he knew he was just an asshole, two-timing, and disrespecting women?
Something flickered in Alex's eyes, but Joanna couldn't quite grasp it before it vanished as he replied, "I understand."
His response seemed too brief for her liking, as she expected more questions that never came.
