The stranger was a CEO who was known to be a perfectionist and arrogant named Matthias. What actually happened? Why couldn't she remember anything that happened two years ago due to an accident? What was on her mind now was that she really hated Matthias because all her dreams were destroyed in an instant and she was trapped in a marriage that she didn't want.Meanwhile, Matthias deliberately sent the marriage certificate to Victoria so that his woman's engagement to another man would be canceled.

Matthias suspected that Victoria's accident was the result of evil deeds carried out by both families. Therefore, he decided to win Victoria's heart back even though Victoria hated him so much that she cursed him as the cruelest man who hindered her dreams. Because their relationship before the accident was very harmonious and they already loved each other.However, behind the hatred that was buried in Victoria's heart, every time she looked at the CEO's handsome face, she always wanted to cry. Who was Matthias's real identity? Then, why was Matthias so obsessed with her even though they had never met? In order to be free from her unwanted marriage and return to her boyfriend, she made a marriage contract with Matthias.
