Pond, the internationally renowned CEO of Thailand's largest company and a celebrated model known for his strikingly handsome features and sculpted physique, is often referred to as "The Perfect Man." He projects an image of effortless charm and success, a carefully constructed persona that hides a darker side. Seeking a new assistant, Pond encounters Phuwin, a charming, sassy, and self-assured young man with a mysterious past. Their professional relationship quickly blossoms into something more, exceeding both their expectations.
However, as their connection deepens, Pond's true nature begins to emerge. The sweet, attentive man Phuwin initially knew is replaced by a self-centered, abusive, and possessive individual. Pond's behavior becomes increasingly erratic and cruel, revealing a stark contrast to the public image he cultivates.
What makes this story particularly intriguing is Phuwin's reaction. Instead of shock or outrage, Phuwin displays a chilling calm, suggesting he may have known about Pond's true personality all along. This raises a crucial question: If Phuwin was aware of Pond's abusive tendencies, why did he choose to pursue a relationship with him? Was it a calculated risk, a game of power, or something else entirely? The story delves into the complexities of their relationship, exploring themes of manipulation, hidden motives, and the masks people wear to protect themselves or to control others. The narrative leaves the reader questioning the nature of love, deception, and the true meaning of "perfect."
