Elias, broke and desperate to save his dying grandmother, is forced to marry a stranger at City Hall. That stranger is billionaire Dorian, who has searched for Elias for ten years and will destroy anyone who hurts him. But can their fake marriage survive the enemies circling them?
Oh my god! Call 911! The kid's bleeding! He hit his head! Get an ambulance, now! Grandma, look. I made this for you. When you get better, Kevin and I will get married.
You'll be there, right? Oh, Elias. I'm so sorry. Sir, the ICU bill is severely past due. If we don't receive payment, we'll have to halt the specialized treatments.
No, please! Don't stop! She'll be in pain! I understand, but this is a private facility. We need the payment to continue Oh, sweet Elias. Crying again? Serena, they're going to stop Grandpa's meds. I don't have the money.
Well, that's a shame. Medical debt is a bitch. But I could help you. I can pay the 200 grand to save her, but you should leave Kevin Harrow alone. Tomorrow, you go to City Hall and marry the guy I arranged for you. marry but I'm supposed to marry Kevin save grandpa or wait for Kevin Harrow

fiancee we closed for lunch at 1 30 if he's not here you'll have to reschedule he'll come he has to my grandma's waiting try calling him again honey the The number you have reached is out of service. Serena, why isn't he here?
You're going to City Hall today, Dorian. Or I swallow this entire bottle. Put the pills down, Mother. The groom ran away!
Ashworth Group is a laughingstock! Your father's trust fund requires you to be married by 30! Pick anyone, I don't care. Just get the certificate! Marriage isn't a board meeting.
I don't merge my life for PR. are read call the paramedics tell them to wait until I stop breathing mr. Ashworth please sir just agree fine I'll go what do I do grandpa still here what What a loser.
Please, marry me. My grandma is dying. Where did you get that mark? Let go, it hurts.

Mr. Ashcroft, but sir, there's a 24-hour waiting period in this state. Make a call. Bypass it, or I'll buy this entire building and fire everyone. Right away, sir. Just need you to sign these. Sign it. It's a prenup.
Prenup? What does that mean? It means I pay off all your grandma's medical bills, and you become my husband. No questions You'll pay? All of it? Every single penny. You'll never have to worry about money again.
Do you, Dorian Ashworth, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? I do. And do you, Elias Wren, take this man- I do! Yes, I do!
The rings, please. rings I don't have I didn't know we needed by the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and husband you may kiss the groom so mr. Ashworth I call me Dorian or if you behave I might let you call me something else okay
Okay, Dorian. I want to go to the hospital. Then I'll be off for now. Get in. I'm going with you. This is really bothering you, Mr. Ashcroft. Actually, I could just go by I told you. You belong to me now, little one. I take care of what's mine.
Mr. Ashcroft, we've prepared the top-tier suite for Mr. Wen. The concierge medical team is on standby 24-7. This place, it looks too expensive. How much is this?
Open an unlimited account for him. Best doctors, best meds. If he so much as sneezes, I want to know about it. Right away, sir.
I'll work really hard to pay you back. I can clean, I can cook. Listen to me, little one. You're my husband now.
You don't clean, you don't cook. and you certainly don't owe me a damn thing. Understand? Understand.
So, he's actually waiting at City Hall all day? That's hilarious. Kevin Harrow's out of town. He has no one.
When he crawls back to me begging, I'll own him. No. That's impossible.
What? Who is it? Dorian Ashburn? he married Dorian Ashworth what's the emergency Serena I told you I have a
meeting look at this your sweet innocent Elias just hit the jock pet Torrin Ashbroth are you kidding me a billionaire marrying a boy who can barely tie his own shoe here's it's a sham it's a real marriage certificate Kevin Harrow?
Relax. Guys like Ashworth don't marry for love. He probably needed a prop for some PR stunt. He's too naive, too broken.
He won't last a week in his world. They'll chew him up and spit him out. He has a point, Serena. The Ashworth estate is like a viper's nest.
You're right. He doesn't belong there. But why wait a week? I think the Ashworth staff needs to know exactly what kind of trash their boss brought
Hello? Is this the Ashworth State Manager? I have some concerning information about your new Room. Take a picture. It lasts longer. I wasn't... You're shaking. Are you scared of me? I'm scared I'm scared of everything. It's all so new. Don't be scared. As long as you're with me, no one can touch you.
Okay. Mr. Reed, is everything alright? The master is bringing his new husband home. More like a charity case. I just got off the phone with his sister. Turns out this Elias kid is mentally stunted.
A gold-diver who tricked Mr. Ashworth when he was desperate. Ew. A retard? In this house? Don't bother preparing the master suite for him. him. Put him in the guest room by the stairs. And don't waste your time treating him like royalty.
He won't be here long enough to matter. Is this your house? It's like a castle. It's our house now. Welcome home, sir. Reed, this is my husband, Elias. Ensure he is treated with the utmost respect. Of course, sir.
I have to take this. It's a board emergency. Reed will show you around. Go. I'll be fine. Hi. I'm Elias. Um, where is my room? Sarah, show him to the guest room. I have more important things to do.
I have to prep dinner for the master, Mr. Reed. Let Jessica do it. I'm busy organizing the wine cellar. Then he can wait here. Sit there. Don't touch anything. Did you set a plate for the new boy?
Mr. Reed said not to bother. If he's hungry, he can beg.
