Pongket, a nearly forty-year-old diplomat, is forced into an arranged marriage with an unknown bride by his mother, setting off a series of complicated events!

One woman was perceived as a woman who only wanted a wealthy husband and his properties, so she became the surrogate mother of his children…
One man was perceived as a wicked man, escaping his own wedding, not caring about his family…
And another man who had to cover up for his friend, so he became a fake bridegroom, taking care of his best friend’s wife…

Amidst the misunderstandings, two children were the ones connecting three people together…

But everything changes when Pongket discovers that the mother of his children is actually Sakunthara, the woman he had been interested in before and had been searching for all this time!

Already a Mother, Not Quite a Wife

“Miss Thara, please be prepared. I’d like to blot your face a bit more. We only have a little time left before we have to go down,” the make-up artist told her after the door opened. Two young women came in to see her and picked up the nearby make-up cases to bring with them.


The young woman smiled at the make-up artists and walked straight over to the table, lowering herself down into a sitting position and angling her body so they could apply cosmetics to her face. The make-up artists took a few moments to add some finishing touches before the two of them helped to escort her out to wait at the upper landing of the stairs, which afforded a view of the guests down below.


Sakunthara raised her shoulders slightly. Her sash had been lifted and draped elegantly over her arm. Though she was as beautiful as the daughter of an ancient ruler, her heart raced. She watched the bridal procession pass gradually through each of the symbolic gold and silver gates.
