Chapter 1
Maki Lim - The daughter of the most prominent business mogul in Asia - woke up to the sound of beeping machines and the sterile scent of antiseptic.
Her head throbbed, her vision blurry, and when she tried to sit up, a sharp pain lanced through her skull.
"Miss Lim, take it easy," a nurse gently instructed. "You've been unconscious for a few days."
Anong... ha, a few days? Bakit ako nasa ospital?
Before she could ask, a tall man in a sleek suit entered the room, his expression grave.
"Maki, I’m Attorney Valerio, your family’s legal counsel. You suffered a head injury and, unfortunately… you have amnesia."
Maki swallowed hard. "I… I don’t remember anything."
Attorney Valerio nodded.
"Then I need you to listen carefully. Your father’s will states that you must be married within the week to claim your inheritance. If you don’t, everything goes to your brother."
"Ano?! One week?!"
She barely had time to process the words before the door swung open and seven people—each with different expressions of hope, desperation, and something else she couldn’t place—stood before her.
"Maki," one of them pleaded. "Please… remember me."
She had seven days to find the truth.
Seven days to remember who she loved.
Seven days… to save her future and probably more than that.
