Their Christmas wedding is a lie.
Lee Jae-wook is a cold, ruthless CEO who sees love as a liability. Han Seo-yeon is a desperate barista with a family to save. Their contract is simple: a temporary, high-stakes marriage to secure his legacy and pay off her debts. It's a business deal with one rule: no emotions allowed.
But when his powerful, manipulative family launches a vicious attack, their perfect facade begins to crumble. A public lie becomes their only shield, a shared secret their only truth. The cold, calculated kisses turn surprisingly real, and the contract that was supposed to keep them safe begins to feel like a cage.
Now, with a war raging on all sides and a fragile love blooming in the wreckage, the Christmas countdown is no longer about a contract. It's a race against time to protect a life he wasn't supposed to want.
Can a love born of a lie survive the holidays, or will the secrets of his past destroy their future?
