Before the wedding, Ella Foster was schemed against by Andrew Evans's family; her own father leeched off her and sold her out cheap. On the run from the wedding, she'd rather throw herself at a stranger than let that family get away with it. Refusing to swallow the humiliation, Ella decisively calls off the engagement and flash-marries Ethan Grant. On the wedding day, Andrew throws a lavish banquet and uses bride price and fireworks to humiliate her. Her own parents sit at her ex-fiancé's table enjoying the feast, while the whole village laughs at her for being blind and choosing wrong—giving up an ex-fiancé set to become a junior exec at a listed company. But who knew? Ethan's parents—Mr. Grant and Mrs. Grant—blow their cover on the spot. They're not only Andrew's company bosses; they also bring a ten-million bride price to back her up and give her face.
