Story Guide
Episode 1
A decade-old fire opens the story. Trapped with an injured man, a young woman gives him her mother's ring, believing it will protect him. He gives his name: Leon. She is Sophie. Then everything goes dark.
Years later, Leon returns to West City, having lived abroad after the fire and faked a leg injury. He built Augusta Group from nothing, but the fire cost him his inheritance. Playing the cripple, he says, is the only way to make the mastermind drop their guard. The ring from that night is still in his hand, and he orders a search for its owner.
Episode 2
Leon arrives at his nephew Jasper's wedding at the West Royal Hotel, supposedly powerless after giving up his claim as heir. Then a video plays, exposing Jasper with Sophie's best friend. Sophie calls off the wedding on the spot.
Instead of walking away, she announces a change of plans and proposes to Leon, asking him to marry her. He accepts, and they exchange vows. As Jasper's new aunt, Sophie gets her revenge. Watching her, Leon finds himself intrigued by the woman who just upended his family's ceremony.
Episode 3
Jasper erupts, demanding to know how Sophie could propose to his uncle at their own wedding. He insists he never cheated. Sophie points out the man's last name is still Black, so she kept the family agreement.
When Jasper appeals to Leon as his elder, Leon answers that he is just a cripple, and he would be a fool to turn down a beautiful woman willing to marry him. Sophie tells Jasper to learn some manners and call her aunt now. Leon is amused; the pretty bride turns out to be a feisty wildcat.
Episode 4
The scandal spreads: the bride ditched the groom to marry his uncle. At home, her family fumes that the cripple never should have been invited, and someone vows to ship him back abroad for good.
Sophie, meanwhile, stays practical. She tells Leon she knows he is broke and in a wheelchair, but he is handsome and he stepped up, so she is in. Her one rule: no cheating. She even hands him cash, telling him a man needs money on him. Watching, someone notes the irony of the billionaire CEO of Augusta Group being kept by a woman.
Episode 5
Conner questions why Leon agreed to marry Sophie. Leon says Conner's displeasure is reason enough, and that after years of playing a destitute cripple, women usually run the other way. Sophie is special, he admits, but he wants to see how long she keeps up the act. Finding the truth about the fire remains the priority.
At home, Sophie's father rages that she humiliated the Bennett family by marrying a nobody. She fires back that Jasper cheated first, and she still married a Black. He throws her out, calling her a curse. Sophie leaves, mourning the ring she lost.
Episode 6
At an Augusta Properties showroom, Sophie asks to see floor plans for the smallest unit she can afford. A salesperson dismisses her instantly, sneering that she could not afford a broom closet and belongs nowhere near the elite community.
Sophie fires back that Augusta's reputation is built on more than money, and that real high society would never accept the tacky, overnight-rich attitude on display. The salesperson calls security to throw her out. Then a voice cuts through: nobody touches my wife.
Episode 7
Leon arrives and orders that the three rude staff never show their faces in West City again. Liam Carter, Augusta Properties' boss and Leon's friend, appears and apologizes to Sophie, revealing the company is his.
The salespeople realize too late who they insulted. Liam offers Sophie any property she chooses at fifty percent off as a gesture of goodwill. She does not hold back and picks the biggest one. Then Liam invites Leon to catch up, hinting there is more between these two than either is saying.
