Contrôlant

She only wanted to live. He only needed a wife—on paper. But what started as a contract… is about to rewrite their hearts. After Rain Italy Cuervanue refuses to be sold off to an old man to pay her aunt’s debt, she’s thrown out of her own home. Desperate and alone, she flees to the only place that still holds her father’s memory, the beach house he gave her on her 18th birthday, only to find out it’s been sold. And not just to anyone. To Matthew Fuentavello, the youngest, powerful, and most feared CEO in the country, from a family known across Asia. To her shock, Matthew offers her a deal: Marry him for six months, a secret contract to fulfill his grandfather’s condition for taking full control of their empire. In return, she gets the beach house back. The catch? She must also work for him as his secretary. No one must know they’re married, except his family. Rain agrees with no choice left, never expecting that the man she married on paper… is the uncle of her cheating ex-boyfriend, the one who broke her heart with her own cousin. As they pretend by day and blur the lines by night, a dangerous chemistry starts to grow. Office rumors spark. Jealousy brews. And when the whispers get too loud, Matthew drops the biggest bomb—Rain isn’t just his secretary. She’s his wife. Just when Rain begins to believe in their stolen happiness, the past comes knocking. Her ex wants her back. Matthew’s ex, the woman who once rejected the deal Rain accepted, now wants him again. And Rain begins to wonder… Was she just a second option? Or is there something Matthew’s been hiding from the start… something real?

Kinakaya ni Isla Aguilar ang mabigat na hamon ng buhay. Nagtatrabaho sa araw, nag-aaral sa gabi para sa pangarap na mas maayos na buhay at makatulong sa gamutan ng bunsong kapatid na may Down Syndrome at butas sa puso. Sa gitna ng kanyang pagsusumikap, ang kanyang tanging pahinga ay ang lihim na talon malapit sa likod ng kanilang bahay, kung saan isang araw ay iniligtas siya ng isang guwapo at matipunong estranghero sa pag-aakalang siya ay nagpapatiwakal. Hindi niya inakalang ang estrangherong iyon ay si Johan Abraham Dela Torre, ang bagong CEO ng kumpanyang pinagtatrabahuhan niya na kilalang istrikto at malupit sa pamamalakad sa kumpanya, at mailap sa mga babae. Kaya’t laking gulat ni Isla nang bigla siyang alukin ng CEO ng kasal kapalit ng tulong para sa operasyon ng kanyang kapatid. May kundisyon ang kasunduan: walang pisikal na relasyon, sikreto ang kasal maliban sa pamilya ng lalaki, at isang taon lamang ang bisa. Habang tumatakbo ang mga araw, unti-unting nahuhulog ang loob nina Isla at Abe sa isa’t isa. Dahil sa angking galing at talino, si Isla ay naging isang asset ng kumpanya, at si Abe, sa kabila ng pagkukunwaring malamig at matigas, ay palihim na sinusuportahan si Isla sa kanyang pangarap. Ngunit paano kung may ibang babae na nagpupumilit maging parte ng buhay ni Abe at palaging minamaliit ng matapobreng ina ni Abe si Isla? Magagawa ba nilang ipaglaban ang pag-ibig sa kabila ng takot, sakit, at mga hadlang?
