Jay, a cold and ruthless CEO, has built his life around discipline and control. His world revolves around work and his son, Taesan-a quiet, withdrawn child suffering from severe social anxiety. Despite Jay's efforts, no therapist has been able to break through Taesan's walls.
But everything changes when Taesan accidentally bumps into Jungwon, a young and vibrant child psychologist. Unlike with anyone else, Taesan doesn't shy away from Jungwon's touch, nor does he hesitate to respond to him. Jay's father, witnessing this rare interaction, sees an opportunity-one that Jay initially refuses to accept.
Forced by his father's ultimatum, Jay finds himself trapped in an unexpected deal: a contract marriage with Jungwon. His only goal? To help Taesan recover and reintegrate into the world. But as Jungwon's warmth seeps into their cold home, lines start to blur. Taesan isn't the only one changing-Jay, too, finds his heart softening, drawn to the man he was never supposed to fall for.
But can love bloom in a marriage built on a contract? And when the deal is over, will Jungwon stay, or will he walk away with the heart he never intended to steal?
