Opis

MADONNA, A STRUGGLING 27-year-old, enters a cold contract marriage with Warren Westwood, her late father's business partner he needs a wife for appearances; she needs financial security. Their agreement: no love, no intimacy, just two years of pretending. Moving into his isolated estate, Madonna discovers a house haunted by grief. Locked rooms hide portraits of Warren's late sister, Liora, whose tragic death shattered his family. Though Warren is distant, small cracks in his armour appear a shared meal, a music box gift, a rare smile. When Madonna confronts Warren's icy mother at a tense dinner, their partnership deepens. Together, they redecorate Liora's room, symbolizing Warren's healing. A mystical attic mirror seems to reflect Liora's spirit, bridging past and present. At a public gala, Warren proudly claims Madonna as his wife, stunning high society. Their first dance sparks unspoken desire. Later, he admits: "I don't want this to end."
