DramaComedy

Lies, a 17-year-old student, is forced to marry Madun, an aging and wealthy man, as a way to repay her mother's debts. Her heart actually belongs to Jack, the son of a rich businessman from the same village, who now works in Jakarta. After giving up her rebellion, Lies finally agrees—with several conditions: the marriage must take place in the capital, and Madun has to comply with all her demands. Madun confidently agrees, clueless that Lies has already devised a cunning plan.
