Description：
On their wedding night, billionaire tech king Ethan Cross asks the worst possible question: **"Was it really your first time?"**
What he doesn't remember is that years ago, in a luxury karaoke lounge, **he was the man who took Rose Carter's virginity**—and the man who threw her away the very next morning.
Rose has never had the luxury of being sentimental. A former nightclub worker with seven younger sisters to support, she learns early that love is cheap, but money buys survival. So when fate throws Ethan back into her life—richer, colder, and still obsessed with purity—Rose makes a ruthless choice. If the world wants innocence, she'll sell it. She steps into the role of the perfect wife, hiding her past behind a sweet smile, a careful lie, and a marriage built on deception.
But Ethan is no fairytale prince. Beneath his polished image lies a controlling man with twisted desires, dangerous pride, and the power to ruin her with a word. What starts as a calculated transaction turns into a vicious game of manipulation, revenge, and desire—where divorce is only the beginning. Because Rose doesn't just want escape anymore. She wants wealth, freedom, and payback.
In a world where reputation is currency and marriage is war, how long can Rose keep winning before Ethan uncovers everything—and decides he wants her back for reasons far darker than love?
