00:00In just a few days, I had adapted to a life of luxury.
00:06The driver took me to and from work and to the hospital.
00:09I enjoyed the fresh air and beautiful views which gave me inspiration.
00:14Besides Albert the butler and Lynn the cook housekeeper, no one else resided in the mansion.
00:20I enjoyed living there and hoped to stay indefinitely.
00:24I hoped that Cameron and I would get along and, who knows, even fall in love as a real
00:28husband and wife.
00:29I felt silly for fantasizing about it, but in a place like this it was hard not to.
00:50Ma'am.
00:51Who are you?
00:58Mr. Kent, I'm...
01:01Sir, this is Miss Brenda Strong, your wife.
01:10Are you telling me that I'm married?
01:15Why didn't I know that I was married?
01:18You didn't know about the marriage arrangement?
01:20But Mr. Tripp, he... he told me... like, we were talking and he...
01:26Look at me.
01:43Get out.
01:44Sir, your father arranged...
01:48Don't make me repeat myself.
01:51I'll be in my study.
02:00I'm really sorry, madam.
02:03I was so sad because all my romantic dreams about Cameron Kent had come to naught.
02:09Don't worry about me.
02:10I'm...
02:11I'm gonna be okay.
02:15Excuse me.
02:19As I walked out with a suitcase of my things, my stomach tightened.
02:24What has I gotten myself into?
02:26Cameron didn't even know about our marriage.
02:29What a shame.
02:30I felt a deep sense of guilt for not reading the contract and did not know how to terminate it now.
02:36I had just walked away from the door when a familiar voice answered me.
02:41Where do you think you're going?
02:43Are you trying to breach our contract?
02:47Albert told me what happened.
02:49That's no reason for you to give up.
02:51We have a legal contract.
02:53No, no, I know.
02:55It's just... I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to breach anything willingly.
02:59It's just...
03:01Cameron hates me.
03:02Hatred?
03:04Is that the reason?
03:06Fine.
03:07So, give us back the compensation and leave.
03:12What...
03:14What kind of compensation are you talking about?
03:17According to the terms of our agreement,
03:19breaching the contract within the first three years obliges you to pay double the amount of money you received.
03:26It was written in the agreement in tiny letters.
03:34I don't have that amount of money.
03:36What am I supposed to do?
03:38Put in the effort and fight.
03:43You're a smart woman, Brenda.
03:45So you must know that dealing with a beauty like you is the hardest thing for a man.
03:57The lawyer walked away.
03:59I had to understand this by now.
04:01There was no way out.
04:03I couldn't afford to breach the contract,
04:06but I also couldn't ignore my grandmother's illness.
04:10So, even if Cameron hated me,
04:13I had to do everything in my power to stay.
04:17The following day, I made a plan.
04:20I would change my attitude and try to win Cameron over.
04:24I was already up to my neck in the situation,
04:27and the best thing I could do was make the most of it.
04:30That morning, Cameron came downstairs and seeing me, he became more serious.
04:35Alfred, do you know where is my...
04:40Hi, good morning.
04:42I made you some breakfast, so please enjoy.
04:47Why is she still here?
04:49I'm your wife now.
04:51Where else can I go if I'm not here?
04:54Maybe you don't know it, but we even have a real marriage certificate.
04:59Do you think I would care about that?
05:02But you cannot deny it.
05:05You are my husband.
05:07I'm your wife.
05:09Legally.
05:11It's true, sir.
05:13As far as I know, your father keeps your marriage certificate.
05:18Cameron got angry and frustrated by the situation.
05:22This is a marriage he did not want.
05:24So, he headed straight to his father to end this marriage.
05:28What brings you here today?
05:30I need my marriage certificate.
05:32I'm gonna get a divorce.
05:34Okay, no problem.
05:35Get a divorce that's your right.
05:37You know you're not my only son, Cameron, right?
05:39And if you don't get married this year...
05:41I know that.
05:42And you know what I am.
05:44Right.
05:45You know, maybe I shouldn't get a divorce right away.
05:50Trapped by his father in this contract marriage,
05:53Cameron could do nothing but continue to pretend.
05:56While at his house, Brenda is unaware she is about to receive a surprise from her past.
06:03From the moment she moved here, Brenda felt a connection to this house.
06:08She felt the presence of the child she had lost.
06:11As if this would be the house she would have wanted it to grow up in,
06:16with Cameron as the father.
06:18And then, she picked up that call.
06:27Hi, who are you looking for, little one?
06:30Daddy, is daddy home?
06:34Is this the child Brenda thought she had lost?
06:37Then, why is Cameron raising it?
06:40Could Cameron be the stranger who got her pregnant?
06:43Was it all a plan by Cameron's father to get him married?
06:47Will the truth about their past ever come out?
