Before the Kim-Manoban family, there were the Manobans and the Kims. Lisa Manoban was the reckless heiress sent to Seoul after one mistake too many. Jennie Kim was the academy's untouchable queen-perfect, respected, and impossible to impress. They were never supposed to get close. But between school chaos, stolen moments, and a love neither of them expected, Lisa and Jennie became each other's favorite problem. Until family, power, and an arranged engagement tore them apart.

A perfect birthday. A perfect family. A perfect day. Lisa, a high-ranking military officer, thought she could protect her wife Jennie and their twins, Ella and Leo, from anything.

As cities fall, governments disappear, and the infected spread like wildfire, Lisa must use every skill she has to keep her family alive. Together, they will face impossible choices, terrifying dangers, and the constant fear of losing the people they love most. In a world where survival is never guaranteed, one thing remains certain: They will fight for each other until the very end.

Jennie Kim has spent seven years proving herself worthy of leading her family's conglomerate, only to discover that the board won't hand it over until she demonstrates something she's never prioritized: a stable personal life. Desperate, she proposes a contractual marriage to Lisa Manoban, a self-made chef she's crossed paths with exactly enough times to know one thing: Lisa wants nothing from her. The arrangement is simple. A marriage built on rules. Just five years pretending to be the perfect couple. But somewhere between shared meals, quiet nights, arguments, and the life they accidentally built together, the lines they promised never to cross began to disappear. The problem is... some contracts have an expiration date. And sometimes, the hardest thing isn't falling in love; it's realizing you want more.

In the heart of Seoul, South Korea, power is currency-and love is a liability. Lisa Manoban is a chaebol heiress, a modern-day land baroness who owns half of Gangnam through inherited estates and corporate shares. Charming, dangerously playful, and always ten steps ahead-she lives for the thrill of business wars and harmless chaos. Jennie Kim is elegance wrapped in control. CEO of a rising luxury brand empire, sharp-tongued, composed, and allergic to unpredictability. She built her name without needing anyone. When a corporate merger forces them into a fake engagement contract to secure a billion-won land acquisition, sparks don't just fly- They explode. Now stuck living under one roof to convince investors and media that they're "madly in love," they must survive:

Jennie was supposed to married with his boyfriend but end up with one of her co worker

Lisa kept her feelings buried, until Jennie's new boyfriend hit the headlines. Finding out the same time as everyone else. Now she's left wondering... was it all lies, secrets, or something worse?

At Vesper Academy, a prestigious school for students with extraordinary abilities, Y/n Ashford arrives from London hoping for a fresh start. Instead, she somehow manages to attract trouble everywhere she goes. Whether it's annoying the student council, getting dragged into situations she never signed up for, or stumbling into mysteries that have absolutely nothing to do with her, Y/n has a strange talent for being exactly where she shouldn't be. And for some reason, that talent always seems to lead her back to the same people. The student council. As friendships grow and questions begin to surface, Y/n finds herself caught between ordinary school life and secrets hidden beneath it. "That student died years ago." "Then why is she standing right there?" At Vesper Academy, nothing is ever as simple as it seems.

Jennie Kim is a brilliant doctor - calm, composed, and completely uninterested in distractions. Her clinic runs like clockwork, her white coat is always crisp, and her heart? Completely off-limits. Then comes Lisa Manoban: chaotic, charming, and suspiciously accident-prone. One week it's a sore throat. The next, a bruised elbow from "tripping over nothing." Jennie is convinced Lisa's faking it. Lisa insists she's just following doctor's orders. But when Jennie finally confronts her about the weekly visits, Lisa just grins and says: "Well... you did tell me to come back if the symptoms got worse." Turns out, she wasn't talking about a cold - she was talking about a crush. Now Jennie has a problem. Because the patient she tried so hard to ignore might be the one person who makes her heartbeat skip for real. A slow-burn, feel-good rom-com filled with fake injuries, real feelings, and one very persistent patient who might just cure the doctor's cold heart.

In a ruthless corporate empire, overlooked assistant Lisa is trapped under the control of her cold, perfectionist boss, Jennie Kim. In a world where weakness is never tolerated, can they ever truly escape the roles they've been forced into?

Set in the elite and power-driven world of Regalia Prime University, the story follows Jennie Kim, the feared and untouchable student body president from an old-money dynasty, and Lalisa Manobal, a transfer scholar who enters the university with no legacy but an unshakable sense of composure. Jennie rules through control, intimidation, and calculated dominance, openly aware of her own dangerous tendencies. Lisa, in contrast, is observant, calm, and psychologically grounded-someone who does not try to change Jennie, but understands her. Ultimately, the story is a dark romance about power, consent, and restraint-not redemption, but choice. It explores a love that is not safe or gentle, yet deeply intentional, where destruction is always possible, but never chosen without reason.
