family

Mario De Cruze is the "Ghost King" of Chicago, a ruthless billionaire and mafia boss driven by a singular childhood trauma: the massacre of his orphanage at the hands of the Red Blood (the Sanchez family). Unknown to Mario, he is actually Pablo Sanchez, the lost second son of the very monsters he seeks to destroy—sold into trafficking by the De Silva family to secure their own power. His cold world is disrupted by Desderia Davids, a brilliant, struggling law student working three jobs to survive. Desderia is fueled by her own quest for justice for her murdered best friend, Alice, unaware that Alice was a spy caught in the crossfire of Mario’s war. When Mario and Desderia collide, an intense, forbidden romance blooms. As they peel back the layers of a 20-year-old conspiracy, the truth emerges: Mario is a Sanchez, and his biological brother, Martin, was the one who ordered the orphanage fire. The tragedy culminates in a brutal siege at a limestone quarry. Realizing that their five-year-old daughter, Sabrina, will never be safe as long as the Sanchez legacy exists, Mario and Desderia make the ultimate sacrifice. They trigger a massive explosion, burying themselves and the core of the Sanchez leadership under a million tons of rock to ensure their daughter’s escape. Mario’s sister, Secilia, flees into the night with the young Sabrina, disappearing into the shadows of Europe.

When Lu Mian opens her eyes again, she's back - reborn with every memory, every scar, and a heart that's finally learned how to stay cold. This time, she won't waste her genius saving ungrateful hearts. This time, she'll live for herself, ignoring all those who caused her pain and were unworthy of her love.

The Synopsis "In the heart of Abeokuta, under the watchful shadow of Olumo Rock, Oluwafunmilayo and Babatunde began their journey with a wedding that promised a lifetime of joy. But as the years bled into seven, the celebratory drums fell silent. Five miscarriages and the biting whispers of family elders turned their home into a place of quiet grief.

For two years, the house was full of laughter, and Babatunde finally saw his 'joy doubled' in his daughter’s eyes. But in a single, shattering moment, the light of their home is extinguished. Left with nothing but a toddler's fading memories and a widow's heavy mantle, Funmilayo must navigate the treacherous waters of grief and survival in Ogun State. This is a story of a daughter who lost her father before she could truly know his face, a mother who fought the world to keep a miracle alive, and a legacy that refuses to be buried in the red earth of Yorubaland."

Three years ago, a man with no past arrived in Hado-gae. Seo Ji-won speaks little of himself, but his hands speak volumes. They prepare meals that taste like memories, they steady fishing boats in rough tides, and they have never once reached for anyone since he arrived. The villagers don't ask questions. They simply adore him, feed him, and let him be. Today, a woman with a broken future returns. Choi Ha-neul fled this coastal village fifteen years ago, chasing city dreams. Now those dreams have collapsed, and she's back—broke, embarrassed, and determined to rebuild. She opens a convenience store next to a quiet restaurant run by a man who makes her heart race and her curiosity burn. Their shops sit side by side. Their pasts sit like walls between them. He watches her struggle with modern failures while carrying ancient secrets. She watches him move through life like a man who has already lived several. Neither asks. Neither tells.

It just doesn't tell.

Jiang Yue’s mom marries Wei Nianzhan’s dad, and overnight two 18-year-old enemies are forced into the same house, the same strict final-year high school, and the same public spotlight. Jiang Yue is reckless, loud, and determined to never be the one who loses. Wei Nianzhan is controlled, high-ranking, and terrifyingly good at staying calm. At school they clash openly, turning classes, cliques, and rankings into a battlefield. At home the war turns quieter and more dangerous, because the walls are thin, the shared spaces are unavoidable, and every “family” moment feels like a trap. As rumors spread and jealousy is provoked on purpose, their hatred starts twisting into obsession. A fever night and other small cracks reveal that Wei’s control isn’t as perfect as it looks, and Jiang Yue begins to realize the person he’s fighting might be the only one who sees him clearly. What starts as sabotage becomes a secret they can’t name, then a mistake they can’t take back, and finally a choice neither of them is allowed to make. They try to survive with rules and denial, but the closer they get, the more everything around them tightens: parents who want a perfect blended family, teachers who watch every step, classmates who live for scandal, and futures that don’t leave room for “wrong” love. By the end, the truth detonates the family anyway, and one of them sacrifices a dream to keep them together. It’s a bittersweet happy ending: they choose each other, but they don’t get to keep the life they were promised.
