Tamsin hires blond college student Dorian to fake being her boyfriend, hoping to pull her suicidal brother Evander out of his office. Evander shows up—only for Dorian to confess to him on the spot and steal a kiss. Dorian is drawn to Evander at first sight, carrying fragments of a past life. As they grow closer, Dorian becomes Evander’s assistant, moves into his home, and protects him from Lucien’s hidden-camera trap. Lucien is the outsider who stole Evander’s life, company, and will to live. In the first life, Dorian approached Evander through a cold deal, and was shot dead while proposing; Evander later jumped from a rooftop. Tamsin’s weeping sent Dorian back. In this life, Dorian exposes Lucien, saves Evander’s company, and waits half a year by his hospital bed. Evander finally wakes, remembers everything, and answers the ring he never got to accept: “I do.”
