and absolute control over everything around him. A year ago, he was involved in a serious accident that left him in a long coma. However, he secretly woke up and recovered without informing anyone. Choosing to pretend to be disabled, he remained in a wheelchair and made an agreement with his doctor and his right-hand man, Leo, to keep the truth hidden. From that position, he silently observed everyone around him, waiting for the right moment. Sarah is a young woman who was forced into marriage with him under pressure from her father, after her half-sister refused the marriage. She agreed unwillingly, without love or desire, and entered the mansion believing she was the wife of a man still unconscious. She was calm, intelligent, and simply did what she believed was her duty—unaware that the man she visited every day could see, hear, and think. During the first days, Sarah visited him constantly, speaking to him and taking care of him, while Max watched her with suspicion. At first, he believed she might have been sent to spy on him or harm him. Silence stretched between them—calculated glances, unspoken tension, and hidden caution—until the night he decided to break that silence.

Max, an extremely wealthy CEO, was involved in a violent accident that left him in a long coma. During his unconscious state, he was rushed into a marriage with Sarah—presented to the family as a sudden love match, though in reality it was a forced arrangement. After some time, doctors noticed slight movements in his fingers, and two days later it was announced that he had finally awakened. He appeared sitting in a wheelchair, claiming permanent paralysis and an inability to walk again, a story everyone accepted without question. In their first real encounter, Sarah entered his room carefully, and

Max is a man in his late twenties, a CEO surrounded by dark rumors that paint him as cold and ruthless. He is stubborn, emotionally distant, and feared by many. A car accident left him unable to walk, forcing him to use a wheelchair. He lost his wife on the day his son was born, and since then, he has locked his emotions away. His son Leo, a four-to-five-year-old boy, is quiet and cautious, unable to trust strangers easily. Max is not cruel to his son, but he does not know how to show affection after loss. Sarah is an orphan living alone in a small but warm house. She lost her parents in a car accident, and the shock caused her to lose her ability to speak. She was not born mute; silence became her reality after trauma. She communicates through writing, sign language, or her phone. Despite her quiet life, she has a kind heart and a strong sense of empathy. One day, while passing by an old laundry, Sarah noticed a small boy standing alone. She stopped in front of him, bent slightly, and wrote on a piece of paper, “What’s your name?” The boy hesitated, then softly answered, “Leo.” Sarah smiled and held out her hand. After a moment of hesitation, he followed her home. She took care of him for several days, offering food and safety, unaware that someone was searching for him. The story truly began that evening when someone knocked on Sarah’s door. She opened it to find a man sitting in a wheelchair. In a cold, calm voice, he said, “Good evening… May I come in for a moment? My car broke down nearby.” Sarah nodded and gestured for him to enter. As he came inside, Leo’s eyes widened. The man silently signaled him to stay calm, unnoticed by Sarah.

Max was a billionaire, a global CEO who built his empire from the ground up without relying on his wealthy family. Tall, broad-shouldered, and sharply featured, his cold eyes cut through anyone who dared look at him. The accident he survived a year ago left him permanently in a wheelchair, but it never weakened him. If anything, it made him colder, harder, and more intimidating. Even seated, Max felt like an unshakable mountain—unmoving, unreadable, and utterly merciless. Sarah, on the other hand, was a twenty-one-year-old girl with soft blond hair and beautiful green eyes that hid a lifetime of pain. She had grown up in an orphanage, and when her true family finally found her, they never accepted her. They loved Noor—the girl they adopted—while treating Sarah like a stranger. Noor constantly lied about her, accusing her of cruelty and misbehavior, and the family always believed the lies. When Noor hit a man with her car—killing him—she blamed Sarah, leading to Sarah being imprisoned for a crime she never committed. After months in prison, Sarah was released only to face a new nightmare: she was being forced to marry Max. Noor had been the one originally promised to him, but after Max’s accident left him unable to walk, Noor refused him immediately, calling him “damaged” and undeserving of her. Instead of blaming Noor, the family punished Sarah, pushing her into the marriage as if she were nothing more than a replaceable object. So Sarah found herself living in a massive mansion, in a separate room far from Max’s, married to a man who barely acknowledged her existence.

Max was a man whose presence alone set him apart from everyone else; tall, broad-shouldered, with a strong, athletic build and a calm voice that carried no warmth. His sharp gaze was enough to silence anyone, and his words were few, cold, and cutting, revealing nothing of what he hid behind that emotionless face. He was a global CEO, a billionaire who built himself from the ground up despite his family’s wealth, relying solely on his own strength and determination until he reached a position no one could rival. As for Sarah, she was a twenty-one-year-old girl with soft blond hair and green eyes as clear as spring when it awakens. Gentle at heart despite the harshness she endured, and despite all the lies thrown at her. She returned to her real family after years of being lost, but they never truly accepted her; they favored their adopted daughter, the one who grew up with them and filled their minds with stories that Sarah was cruel and harmful, when in truth Sarah had done nothing but try to survive quietly. Sarah grew up with a sharp mind and striking intelligence, excelling in her studies and graduating at the top of her class. She finished her university years quickly thanks to her ability to learn fast and stay focused. She thought her future was finally heading somewhere bright—until a single event shattered everything. The adopted daughter caused a fatal hit-and-run accident, then blamed Sarah for it. The family believed the lie, and Sarah was arrested and unjustly held for half a year. After her release, they didn’t give her a moment to breathe.

Max, a 27-year-old wealthy young man gifted with artistic talent since childhood, lost his sight in an accident one year ago, yet never abandoned his passion for painting, continuing to create from memory and feeling. His family forced him into marriage, and Sarah, a kind and innocent 19-year-old girl, became his wife. She tried to adapt to him and care for him despite their differences in personality. After a year of marriage, Max underwent surgery that restored his sight, but he hid it from everyone in order to silently observe Sarah. He wanted to know the truth: Was she loyal? Did she care for him out of genuine affection, or only out of duty? That day, he sat in the art room, watching her every move, savoring the tension and mystery surrounding their relationship. Sarah opened the door after returning from university and walked inside quietly. She passed by him with her usual soft smile, then stepped closer to look at the painting. Without meaning to, her hand brushed the edge of the still-wet paint, causing part of the artwork to smudge and a whole section of the background to blur. She froze for a moment, terrified, then gently set the canvas back in its place as if nothing had happened—she didn’t want to bother him. Max saw everything… and all he said to himself was, “She ruined my painting… and she didn’t say a word.”

Max was known across the lands as the Tyrant Emperor, a man who had never approached a woman nor allowed emotions to touch his life. At twenty-seven, he spent his years expanding his empire and working to unite the entire continent under his rule. His only concern was building a strong bloodline to continue his legacy, yet he had never found a woman worthy of becoming his wife or the mother of his heir. His presence alone—calm, cold, and commanding—made nations fear him without a single swing of his blade. Sarah, on the other hand, was the princess of the Leopard Kingdom; gentle in heart yet strong in spirit, with rare beauty carried in her mismatched eyes—one blue and one green—and her golden hair that shone like sunlight. Her royal bloodline possessed unique magic, and she herself could wield all elemental powers. Skilled with a sword and raised near the forest, she found comfort among the trees, where even wild animals were drawn to her calm nature as if she belonged among them. Everything began when Max decided to annex the Leopard Kingdom. He told his captain that he would offer them only two choices: surrender or war, fully aware that war would not be in their favor. While his army set up camp in the forest near the kingdom’s border, Sarah was there training with her sword, unaware of their presence. As Max walked through the trees with his captain, his sharp hearing caught the sound of a blade cutting through the air.

everything from others. He had a five-year-old son, extremely sensitive, who rejected every nanny no matter how kind or patient. The boy was attached only to his late mother, and anyone who tried to get close to him was quickly dismissed. Marx was looking for someone his son could trust and care for sincerely, and he had found no one suitable—except for an honest and caring young woman. Sarah, a 21-year-old orphan, was strong and independent despite her young age. She had grown up alone after losing her parents and was searching for a job after graduating from culinary school, but she hadn’t found a suitable opportunity. She was kind-hearted, playful, and bold, enjoying interacting with children no matter how difficult they were. These qualities made the boy accept her from the very first moment, and she became part of his daily life, which led Marx to decide to marry her for his son’s comfort. After the wedding, Marx remained cold and distant, acting as if Sarah’s presence was merely a duty to care for his child, while Sarah devoted herself to the boy with love and affection. The child grew happy with her, playing, eating, and smiling at her. Marx watched from afar, occasionally feeling unexpected warmth in his heart, but he never showed it, keeping his usual coldness, acknowledging only to himself that Sarah’s presence made his son happy—and that was all that mattered.

Max, a 28-year-old CEO, was a man of ice and power. He owned palaces, jets, and rare cars, yet his heart was broken since his wife’s death. He had twin boys, five years old, whom he loved more than life itself. But they never spoke, never smiled, and rejected every nanny who tried to care for them. More than ninety-nine nannies had quit because of them. All Max wanted was to hear his sons laugh again. Sarah, a 21-year-old orphan, graduated from a culinary school but couldn’t find work despite her talent. One afternoon, while eating ice cream at a small café, she felt two small hands tugging at her dress. She looked down to see twin boys with gentle faces and sad eyes pointing shyly at her dessert, as if they knew her. Realizing they were lost, Sarah bought them two bowls of ice cream and watched them eat with pure joy. Meanwhile, Max was frantically searching after his secretary, Alexander, reported that the twins had escaped. Using their tracking devices, he found them—smiling for the first time in years, sitting beside a young woman. At that moment, he made an unexpected decision: she would become part of their lives A few days later, Max married her without telling her the truth, pretending to be a simple working man. They lived in a small, quiet house away from the city. Every morning, he left, saying he was going to his “ordinary job.” Sarah never doubted him; she only saw a calm, mysterious man and cared for his twins as if they were her own.

Max, a successful businessman of twenty-eight years old, ran a huge video production company. Yet, he was as cold as ice. His words were few, his eyes frozen, never showing weakness or emotion. He was used to controlling everything, never allowing life to impose anything on him. Sarah, a twenty-year-old orphan girl, was breathtakingly beautiful, with soft blond hair and gray eyes that seemed to hold a hidden secret. Despite her beauty, she was poor and simple. She loved reading, playing music, and embroidery, finding in her handicrafts a small solace that eased the weight of loneliness. Marriage to Max was never her choice, but a fate forced upon her. Sarah moved into Max’s grand mansion, yet she never felt it was her home. They were married only in name; each had their own room, and he never approached her, so she remained a virgin despite the marriage. Life between them was silent, cold, and filled with invisible distances that neither of them crossed. On a rainy evening, Sarah was in the kitchen, slowly preparing dinner, the smell of hot soup filling the air.

Max, a powerful CEO and one of the wealthiest men in the world, a billionaire at twenty-eight, lived a life of strict discipline and cold detachment. His world had no room for affection or compromise. Cold as ice, quick to anger, he could not bear being forced into anything. To him, anyone who dared break his rules deserved his hatred, and his marriage was nothing but a forced deal that only deepened his disdain and rejection of those around him. As for Sarah, she was a twenty-year-old orphan, beautiful with her golden hair and gray eyes that drew every gaze. Despite her loneliness, she carried a heart that quietly longed to become a mother’s heart one day. Gentle and calm, she never raised her voice nor indulged in defiance, but she was not weak—her silent resolve allowed her to stand tall despite the pain. The story began with a medical mistake that changed their lives forever, when Sarah was accidentally inseminated with Max’s sperm. Once his mother learned of it, she forced her son into marrying Sarah, believing that scandal was unfit for their family name. Max never forgave the mistake and saw Sarah as a burden forced upon him. Three months into their marriage, Sarah lost the child due to her fragile health, which only fueled Max’s anger and deepened his hatred for her.

Max, thirty years old, is the CEO of one of the world’s largest companies. A cold man who cares for nothing but his five-year-old son, Leo. Despite his immense wealth and status as one of the most powerful businessmen alive, he remains distant and shows no emotions to anyone. Leo is his greatest secret—a child born out of wedlock who suddenly entered his life. Max doesn’t know who the boy’s mother is, yet Leo’s existence changed his world completely, making him guard the child with an icy, merciless heart toward everyone else. Sarah, twenty-one years old, is a poor young woman living in a small, old house made up of just one room, a living area, and a tiny kitchen. She has lost much in her life—including the baby that was stolen from her days after birth, a wound she still carries. Despite her pain, she is brave and hardworking, making a living cleaning tables and serving customers in a small café. Unaware of the truth, her life is about to turn upside down when fate places a strange boy in her path—one closer to her than she could ever imagine. The story begins when Sarah meets Leo at the café where she works. The mysterious child with sad eyes sat beside his father, Max, who was discussing business with his partners. Leo didn’t speak; instead, he wrote in a small notebook to express himself. Somehow, he was instantly drawn to Sarah in a way no one expected. While she was cleaning and serving, someone locked her inside the storage room. The boy was with her, and despite his young age and trauma that kept him from speaking, he helped her climb out of the window and wrote desperate words asking for help until his father rescued them. From that moment on, an unseen thread began to tie Sarah’s heart to the child—without her knowing he was the son she had lost. Sarah was quickly wiping tables as the café grew crowded, her eyes drifting toward the quiet boy who never let go of his notebook. She smiled kindly at him despite his coldness,
