"Sometimes it's about remembering and never forgiving."

Jane Devold, the only daughter of the CEO of one of the most successful tech companies in the country, grew up to be a seemingly happy and spoiled young woman, despite her stuttering and fragile condition. 

However, her rich and elegant way of living ends in a heartbeat when her father goes missing, leaving Jane alone and with an enormous debt on her hands. 

That's when she reunites with Vernon Lin, her strange and intimidating senior from college, who claims to be the new owner of her father's company and promises to resolve her financial issues if she agrees to marry him.

His offer seems harmless, and Jane accepts his helping hand only to realize that Vernon's intentions are not so pure, and his personality is still miles away from that of a knight in shining armor.

But what really does feed Vernon's unhealthy obsession with Jane? Whether it's his desire for revenge, his own twisted way of teaching the spoiled young woman how the real life works, or unresolved complicated feelings, he still succeeds in turning Jane's life into a living hell.

Until he realizes that without her, his own life is hell, too.

Jane could almost feel her blood draining from her body. She was not scared or anxious but rather flustered, after all, the ribbon was still pretty much a secret and although it was a part of a rather old tradition, it was customary to not bring the topic of that little ceremony up until the moment of its execution.

The girl covered the ribbon with her pale hand and was about to shove it back inside her purse when Felicity snatched the ribbon with one swift motion and stretched it in front of her face, examining it with her curious eyes.

"Why do you have a ribbon in your purse? And what is it... embroidery? Since when are you a fan of handicrafts?"

Jane grabbed the ribbon and threw it inside the purse, closing it tightly as if afraid that it might escape on its own. She then shifted her guilty eyes to her boyfriend, whose face turned unexpectedly serious.
