However, when her adored father falls gravely ill, she is determined to ensure his final days are filled with happiness. His dying wish? To witness her marriage to a man of his choosing. Yet Jasmine’s heart is already claimed by another—a servant, a pauper, someone her father would never deem suitable. Caught between loyalty to her father and her own desires, Jasmine strikes a desperate bargain with Julian, her father’s trusted confidant, unaware of his ulterior motives.

But as his mentor’s health declines, Julian faces the prospect of losing everything he has worked for, compelling him to pursue his inheritance by any means necessary. Even if it entails coercing a woman he despises into marriage,.
Jasmine, outspoken and defiant, is the thorn in his side, and he is cast as the villain in her narrative. Yet Julian resolves to make her his, employing every stratagem to sway her to his side.
