Ava, forced by her adoptive parents to take the real daughter’s place and marry Sebastian, a terminally ill and disabled tyrannical tycoon. Outwardly, she is a castaway girl sacrificed by everyone, yet she is secretly the hidden founder of Aurora Labs, the world’s leading medical technology firm. She originally planned to leverage this marriage to uncover the truth behind her mother’s disappearance. However, on their wedding night, she discovers that Sebastian is being slowly poisoned by a traitor within his wealthy clan. Moreover, the car accident that crippled him three years ago is linked to the same illegal human experimentation operation that imprisoned her mother.
Bound together by this absurd forced substitute marriage, these two powerful individuals, both feigning vulnerability and lying in wait for their enemies to reveal themselves, evolve from wary rivals to allied partners bent on settling scores. Together, they unravel conspiracies involving the genuine and fake daughters of a wealthy household, internal power struggles within elite families, unlawful human experimentation and dark family secrets. In the end, they rewrite the rules governing the upper echelons of high society.
