Contract of Deceit: The CEO's Fake Love

Leah signs a one-year contract marriage with cold, aloof CEO Locke to save her critically ill brother—playing the role of his nominal wife in exchange for life-saving surgery funds. They start as strangers, drawing strict boundaries: Rule Number One—no falling in love.But living under the same roof changes everything. Locke is silently moved by Leah's resilience and kindness, quietly clearing obstacles from her path and shielding her family, time and again standing up for her in public without hesitation. Leah, in turn, lets down her guard and falls for the man whose ice-cold exterior hides a fiercely warm heart.When a jealous rival exposes the truth behind their contract, Locke doesn't hesitate—he defies his family, walks away from a major business deal, and publicly defends Leah without a second thought. In the end, he tears up the contract himself and proposes with his true heart. From a marriage of convenience to a love built to last, they seal their forever with a grand wedding that the world witnesses.
