What it's about

He was supposed to marry her stepsister. He chose her instead — and the fallout tears two families apart. A slow-burn romance with genuine emotional stakes.

Each of the 78 episodes lands on a turn, a reveal, or a confrontation designed to make you tap unlock just one more time. The first 6 episodes are free, and they're paced to hook you before the paywall kicks in.
