After her heart-shattering divorce, she ended up as an assistant for an underground casino boss, Damien, a stranger. Yet she couldn’t ignore the deep connection to this mysterious stranger until she discovered the world-shattering truth. It was her dying husband who had taken a new identity to fulfil his promise to her.

10th Anniversary Heartbreak
Vivian and Vincent were one happily married couple. They were soulmates meant to be together, and everybody who knew them knew about their deep love and connection. Despite the couple being married for a decade, the love and spark hadn’t faded.
Vivian had dedicated herself to her husband as a housewife. But everything changed on their tenth wedding anniversary when Vincent demanded a divorce. He cruelly insulted her for being a useless housewife as he went on and on about his regret of marrying her.
But what broke Vivian’s heart was when Vincent revealed he was only pretending to love her after their ten years of togetherness. Vivian was blindsided and confused as she tried to work through their marriage, refusing to give up. But Vincent gave her no choice as he pushed her away.
Unbeknownst to Vivian, Vincent had terminal cancer. If he chose to go through the treatment, he would slowly start to lose his memories. And the treatment would be emotionally agonizing.
Vincent loved Vivian so much that he refused to forget anything about her. He didn’t even want her to watch him die. Hence, he concealed the truth, carrying the burden of the devastating truth all alone as he chose to push her away by fabricating his feelings for her to protect her from the inevitable goodbye.
Vincent’s Transformation & Return
Vincent had 90 days to live, and he wanted to spend every day with his wife, Vivian, by fulfilling his promise. From amusement parks to the beaches, he wanted to fulfil his promise and make her smile every day.
So once Vincent was successful in pushing his wife away, he underwent a facial reconstruction surgery and became unrecognizable. With a new identity as Damian, an underground cassino boss, he returned to her life with an altered face and voice.
To get closer to her, he brought the cassino where her father owed debts. Knowing Vivian had no money to pay the million dollar debts of her father, he struck a two month deal where there would be no relationship, no intimacy, and definitely no touching as he asked her to be his personal assistant. His only condition was that Vivian would smile every single day.
Left to carry the burden of her father’s mistakes, Vivian agreed. But as she began to spend time with Damien, she couldn’t ignore the connection as she opened her heart. Meanwhile, the real Damien’s girlfriend, Jennifer, stirred drama as Vincent’s 90-day timeline was running out, forcing the selfless husband to bid his goodbye.
