Leah, the daughter of the Cruz family, appears to be a "fierce delicate flower" who throws money around in nightclubs and acts in a cynical way on the surface. In reality, she is a down-and-out heir whose power was seized by her stepfather. During a misunderstanding, Leah, fueled by alcohol, generously spent a large sum of money and "kept" Allen, the "bankrupt noble young master" — little did she know that this man whom she could pin against the wall and whose shirt she tore open was actually the person in power of the Smith family, a mafia clan. A misunderstanding about "keeping someone" kicks off: He can wear an apron and cook dinner, and when she is framed by her stepsister Lisa, he will press the muzzle of a gun against the forehead of the enemy. She once thought that he was a person in distress who needed her protection, but when she herself was in trouble, she discovered that the overwhelming power of the Smith family could be casually wielded by him — she thought she was the hunter, but she didn't know that from the moment she pinned him against the locker, he was willing to shed all his disguises just for her... Let's see how Leah makes a comeback from the "sugar mommy" to become the wife of the mafia boss, staging an ultimate love story between two powerful individuals where "You hide your power to protect my vulnerable part, and I shed my thorns to give you my sincere heart."

He denies being the masked man but insists his enemies are targeting her and demands she move in with him for protection. Why is the man who broke her heart now acting like her savior? And why does he seem... not entirely human? Can Ella trust him again—or is he hiding more than just a mask?

Iris and Benjamin were once the ultimate power couple—total relationship goals for everyone, and loaded to boot. They went from college sweethearts straight to tying the knot, and he even gave her a kidney to save her life, swearing he’d love her forever. But by their third year of marriage? Benjamin was hooking up with his mistress out in the open, no shame at all. Crushed and done with his nonsense, Iris set a "15-day countdown" and quietly planned her divorce and escape. But his pathetic lies and the mistress’s bold-faced disrespect pushed her over the edge—she lost the baby. Completely broken, she finally took off, all by herself. Benjamin had no clue how much he’d hurt her until she was gone. That’s when his brutal "redemption tour" started—you know, when someone messes up bad and then begs for forgiveness, but it’s already too late. He offered a reward worldwide to find her, but Iris outsmarted him at every turn. His career and reputation? Gone in a flash. Even after he dumped the mistress, got on his knees to beg for mercy, and took a knife for Iris (ending up seriously hurt), he couldn’t melt her cold heart. In the end, he just had to watch—lonely and full of regret—as she built a new, happy life. And that’s when he finally got it: "Belated love ain’t worth squat"—affection that shows up too late? It’s totally useless.

Little does she know, her fiancé is the very person she has already fallen for.
