Painful Love

Synopsis: In a marriage of cold convenience, Adrian Cole weds Selene Harlow, the beautiful and distant heiress to the powerful Harlow fortune. To the elite world of politicians and tycoons, Adrian is nothing but a "useless nobody," a penniless man tolerated only as a laughingstock and a pawn. Forced into the union by her family, Selene treats him with glacial contempt, echoing the open disdain of her iron-willed mother, Eleanor, and her dismissive father, Victor. Publicly humiliated and relegated to the shadows of the Harlow Corporation, Adrian endures the constant mockery, especially from Julian Black, a rival executive with a predatory interest in Selene and the company. Adrian bears it all with quiet restraint, his true nature hidden behind a mask of meekness. But beneath the surface, he is far more than he appears. Secretly, he commands a hidden power and respect, with loyal operatives referring to him as "Young Master" and awaiting his orders. The fragile peace shatters when subtle threats escalate into open warfare: a shattered heirloom, a violent ambush in an alley, and a near-fatal "accident" on the road. With each attack that Adrian effortlessly deflects, Selene's icy skepticism begins to thaw into burning curiosity. Who is this man she married? His calm authority in the face of danger and his quiet acts of protection clash with the image of the helpless man everyone scorns. As Julian Black's schemes grow more dangerous and desperate, Adrian is forced to let his carefully constructed facade begin to crack. The forgotten son-in-law can no longer remain in the shadows. He must choose between his vow to conceal his powerful past and the need to protect the wife who is slowly starting to see the formidable man hidden behind the ridicule.

"Come on, waiter," Tom taunted, his voice dripping with contempt. "You should lick it up while it's still cool," he added with a sly chuckle as his friends eagerly removed their phones to capture August’s humiliation for their amusement. August was devastated, the money he had been saving for the past eight months barely amounted to $180. How would he muster $800 to spare himself from this humiliating ordeal? Stooping that low to lick the liquor on the floor was an option he rather succumbed to death sooner than consider.  "Please, give me until tomorrow. I'll find a way to borrow the money and pay you back," August pleaded, desperation creeping into his voice. But Tom was not having it with him. “No waiter, everything starts and end today. If you are going to pay me the money then is going to be today and right now, or I will have to force you to lick up the liquor”. August's devastation intensified as he realized the gravity of the situation, this was not optional like Tom presented it the first time. His intentions were clear; he did not at all cared about the money all he wanted was to have August lick the floor for their amusement.
