32 parts Ongoing MatureRyyah Isidro had always dreamed of marrying the perfect man-the one she thought was destined for her. Reed Vanderbilt, a half-Filipino, half-Dutch heir to a business empire, was everything she imagined: stoic, emotionally distant, and rarely showing any sign of affection. The son of her father's best friend and business partner.
Once childhood sweethearts, both shared a bond that seemed unbreakable until Reed suddenly grew distant. For years, Ryyah tried to understand what had caused the rift, but it wasn't until a month before their marriage that Reed finally confessed the truth: he no longer insterest her. Worse, he was in love with someone else.
Devastated, Ryyah wanted to break free, but family obligations ties forced her to go through with the marriage. Just when a stranger named Lucius Hawthorne appeared. Lucius seemed determined to win Ryyah's attention and pull her away from the wreckage of her engagement. His efforts intensified, but ultimately, Ryyah remained bound by the political marriage she had agreed to.
Ryyah soon discovered that Reed had rekindled his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, creating a painful emotional distance between them. The more Reed pulled away, the more unbearable their marriage became for Ryyah.
But as Ryyah's heart turns colder, a chance encounter once more the mysterious and alluring guy, Lucius becomes her unexpected escape. Lucius, a man of wealth and dark allure, offers Ryyah the refuge and emotional support she's been craving during her darkest days. As their bond deepens, Ryyah finds herself drawn to him in a way she never felt with Reed.
But when Reed discovers their secret meetings, his anger erupts. For the first time, he realizes the gravity of losing the woman he never thought he needed until she was slipping away. But is it too late for him to fix what he's broken? As Ryyah prepares to file for divorce, Reed faces the toughest battle of his life: Can he convince her to stay before she walks away for good?
