The premise is a forced-marriage setup with a gender twist. Arden, an orphan, is handed over by her cruel birth family to Leona, a reputedly disabled tycoon from the wealthy Carter Group, as a humiliation bargain. The wedding-day reveal — Leona has been faking a leg injury for eight years to guard against corporate rivals — turns the bride who was supposed to be the victim of the arrangement into the person with the most leverage in the room.
The series runs 45 episodes in English on YourChannel. The opening stretch covered by this page stays inside the forced marriage, the wedding-day reveal and the early retaliation against Arden's birth family. The later episodes move into Leona's scheming half-sister Nero and Arden's jealous half-sister Bellamy, who launch corporate sabotage, hired assault and plastic-surgery disguise; this page deliberately leaves that escalation to the show.
What the opening stretch builds is an alliance, not a romance between the two women. Each of them has been burned by family: Arden by the birth relatives who sold her off, Leona by the corporate rivals she has been hiding from. They grow close, share the secret of the fake disability, and start retaliating against Arden's birth family whose property-seizure and attempted-murder schemes fall apart one after another. The show treats their partnership as the engine of the plot.

Written from the opening arc. These are editorial impressions, not audience scores.
The show's cleanest trick is the wedding-day reveal. Leona being faking a disability for eight years reframes every scene that looked like pity as a performance, and turns the forced marriage setup into an alliance between two women who have both been used.
The opening stretch is built around Arden's birth family — property seizure, attempted murder — and the slow collapse of their schemes. The later half-sisters Nero and Bellamy escalate the conflict, but the engine is the partnership between the two women.
Best for viewers who like revenge dramas built on female alliance, fake-disability reveals, and corporate-family scheming, with a forced-marriage setup that twists immediately into a partnership. If you want a straight billionaire-bride romance rather than a female-led revenge structure, the show's opening arc is built around the two women uniting rather than around a conventional romantic lead.
