A Marriage on a Deadline: Miss Si's Alliance Plan

[Cool, accomplished heiress × devoted, single-minded young gentleman]

[Marriage first, love later + doting husband + sunny CEO + pregnancy escape + irresistible heartthrob + doctor]

She is a sought-after obstetrician and gynecologist at the Anderson Medical Center in M Country, cool and proud. He is a handsome, distinguished rising star in Haishi’s business world and president of the E·K Conglomerate.

When work brings her back to Haishi, her tycoon father orders her to marry by the end of the year. She also wants to uncover the truth behind her aunt’s murder, so she approaches him with a bid for a development project on an island as leverage.

“I’ll give you the development rights to the island. In return, you marry me.”

“I’ll marry you.”

She thinks he wants the island project, but he wants her.

“Our marriage will last a year. When we divorce, I’ll do my best to compensate you. Name whatever you want, and I’ll agree.”

Just as their feelings begin to deepen, his “her” returns to the country. Everyone says she is a substitute for “her,” when in fact “she” is the substitute.

“Didn’t you say you’d compensate me? All I want is you.”

“Did you marry me as a matter of convenience, or because you truly wanted to?”

After a scheme goes awry, she is overjoyed at the thought of seeing him, only to find photos of him in bed with someone else. Utterly disappointed, she leaves the country with her brother.

Four years later, she returns as the top doctor in her field, bringing an adorable little girl with her. On her very first day back, she runs into him.

“Is this... your daughter?”

“What kind of question is that, sir? The little girl I’m holding hands with is obviously my daughter. Whose else could she be, yours?”
