His Auctioned Bride

Ella, who comes from a poor family, mistakenly ended up in an underground auction while trying to raise money for her mom's surgery and almost got sold as merchandise. She was bought by the mysterious rich businessman August for $10 million and forced to become his contracted wife. During the time they had to spend together, their relationship evolved from cold possession and control to a genuine emotional bond. However, Ella's ex-boyfriend William, desperate to win her back, teamed up with the jealous Amanda and rival Eric to set up a business trap, trying to ruin August's company. To protect August's hard work, Ella painfully lied, saying 'I never loved you,' and returned to William. In the end, August reconciled with Ella after learning the truth and together they exposed William and the others' schemes, leading the traitors to be taken away by the police for stealing trade secrets and other crimes. After everything, Ella not only held on to love but also regained her self-respect and a true marriage, transforming from a trampled victim into a cherished wife.
