Six months into her pregnancy, Lila discovered that her boyfriend Ethan had been unfaithful and that they had never officially registered their marriage. He then drugged her, causing a miscarriage, tore up her manuscript, and kicked her out of the house. Jasper, the CEO of Novara, who had once been helped by the teenage Lila, secretly acquired Prisma to provide her with shelter and a contract marriage. After joining the company, Lila faced workplace bullying, slander, and sexual harassment from Ethan and his mistress, Chloe. Jasper came to her rescue on multiple occasions and consistently respected her independence. Ethan stole Lila’s work to enter a competition and falsely accused her of plagiarism. While suspended, Lila obtained irrefutable evidence from a recording made by her assistant and attended the awards ceremony under the alias of the mysterious designer Iris. On stage, Lila removed her mask to reveal her identity and used the byline and the recording to expose Ethan’s crimes. Richard immediately announced Ethan’s dismissal. Ethan was subsequently betrayed by Chloe and arrested, ending up in prison. Jasper proposed to her as equals beneath a wall of irises, and Lila accepted his true love, achieving a dual sense of fulfillment in both her self-worth and her romantic life.
