Angelique Sevilla is a 25-year-old receptionist at Casa Villa, the modest hotel owned by her gambling-addicted father. Her days are spent juggling work and hospital visits to care for her critically ill mother. To Angelique, life is dull, exhausting, and painfully predictable-until her father's recklessness shatters it completely. After losing a massive sum of money to a powerful business tycoon, Angelique's father makes an unforgivable decision: he offers his own daughter as payment for his debt. Geovan Beaumont is power in human form. At twenty-eight, he stands at the peak of the business world, owner of Eovan Companies, ruler of hotels and malls across the country and beyond. Wealth, influence, and control are second nature to him. Marriage, love, and emotions are weaknesses he has long discarded. But when a man indebted to him offers his daughter as a payment, he needed to make a decision. A debt. A daughter. A contract disguised as marriage. Join Angelique and Geovan's journey as they enter a loveless marriage. Their marriage is built on rules-no feelings, no expectations, no love. Angelique is meant to be nothing more than a name beside his, a debt settled. But as they're forced to share a life neither of them chose, lines begin to blur and walls start to crumble.

Started: 04/27/2021 Ended: 08/24/2021 Ang hirap palang tumanda. Ang hirap magbayad ng bills. Ang hirap suportahan ng pamilyang akala ay isang milyon ang suweldo mo. Ang hirap ngumiti sa nanay na mataas ang tingin sa'yo pero hindi ka kayang ipagtanggol. Ang hirap tabihan sa hapagkainan ng tatay na pinag-uubusan mo ng pera pero hindi ka maalala. Ang hirap mag-abot ng tulong sa kapatid na baon sa utang. Ang hirap intindihin ng hipag na nakakapagpa-rebond pa kahit kapos na kapos na. Ang hirap pakisamahan ng bunsong halos ilahad ang mga palad tuwing makikita ka. Ang hirap ngitian ng mga taong tanong nang tanong kung bakit hindi ka pa nakakapag-asawa. Ang hirap humarap sa mundong isasampal sa'yo na mag-isa ka. Tulong, bigay, utang. Isang iling mo lang, madamot ka na. Kasama mo sila kapag may maibibigay ka, pero hindi mo sila mahahanap kapag wala na. Ikaw ang kakayod, sila ang tutuka. Ikaw ang iiyak sa pagod, sila ang magtatamasa. Iyon ang summary ng buhay ko. Sobra-sobra ang naririnig na paghingi, kulang na kulang ang naririnig na pasasalamat. Sobra-sobra ang pagpapasensya, kulang na kulang ang natatanggap na pagpapahalaga. Sobra-sobra ang binabayaran, kulang na kulang sa kasiyahan. Kaya nang dumating sa buhay ko ang nag-iisang lalaking hindi ako nakita bilang naglalakad na alkansya, ang nag-iisang lalaking nakinig sa mahabang listahan ko ng problema, ang nag-iisang lalaking nagbigay sa akin ng kakaibang saya, ipinangako ko sa sarili na sa gitna ng hirap ng pagtanda, magtitiis ako basta't siya ang kasama. Kahit pa ang kapalit noon ay pagtalikod sa minahal na pamilya. Kahit pa ang kapalit noon ay paglaban sa mundong pinatatakbo ng kapangyarihan at pera. Kahit pa ang kapalit noon ay ang pagdurusa't pag-iisa. Siya ang ginhawa, pahinga, at kasiyahan ko. Dumating man ang araw na tanaw ko na ang dulo. Dumating man ang araw na wala na kaming sagot sa lahat ng bakit at paano. Dumating man ang araw na pareho na kaming talo.
