In order to get news, Nit follows Pawee and his father to a psych ward, where she finds out that Pawee's mother is still alive and not dead like his father had announced to the media. Nit's mother, who is a nun, goes to the psych ward to see Pawee's mother often to talk to her, there Pawee's mother, who went crazy from Pawee's playboy father, begins to form a bond with Nit. Pawee is upset from the news about his mother still being alive (because it was supposed to be a secret) and begins to have a lot of misunderstandings with Nit, while his girlfriend Pen (who was really happy she wouldn't have a mother-in-law) is very upset at this secret. Ni, who is Nit's sister, is a mistress to Pen's father. Nit does not agree with her sister's actions and refuses to acknowledge this older man, but she cannot stand to leave her sister, who has a weak personality. After some time, Pawee's father is able to comfort Pawee's mother to go home. Pawee's mother hates Pen at first sight and forces Pawee to marry Nit. Will Pawee and Nit fall in love after being tied down together? How will their relationship be after all the twists and turns?

Reviews
rape is not romance.
I found it interesting there were three concurrent mistress arcs playing out inside; aftermath (ML's parents), resolving (SFL's parents) and current (main couple). And, please - This is a drama, visuals, and details matter. The moment the main couple legally married, the second female lead became the mistress, and her role began.With its ramped up vicious 'team second female lead' - Rape did nothing to move this story forward that a 'real-romantic-moment' wouldn't have done. Even, a drunken one-night-stand for the newlywed couple would have been easier to accept. The male lead does acknowledge he 'assaulted her' - Underwhelming, as that was.* Do notice, the word 'rape' was omitted (by the writer) and he didn't admit it to the female lead. Just, acquiesced an apology to his mistress and her toadies. This had all the elements for a crazy, socially dated, but fun character-driven series. But, that one moment of rape culture, voided it. Rape is not romance, and doesn't belong in the romance genre. Avoid.
*note: When responding to the second female lead and her minions screaming accusations of purposeful seduction for pregnancy:
FL: "I was sexually assaulted by him."
SFL & team: "minutes of FL shame throwing."
ML: "Pehn (SFL), I'm sorry." (underwhelming,)
