‎Mark was a young man who was from a wealthy family. His family was incredibly wealthy. But in all of his riches, Mark has one problem. He didn't find a woman he could truly trust.

‎One day, Mark tried to look for a woman to settle down with. Along the way, he discovered that each lady he met was after his money, and some just wanted to live a luxurious lifestyle. So Mark looked for a strategy. Mark decided to go into the town and act like a normal person who doesn't have money. So after Mark hid his identity, he went through looking for a job. There was a lady called Isabella. She lives with her parents. But Isabella didn't have peace of mind. Since her parents forced her to get married to a Famous and rich person, they began to introduce men to her. And those men do not actually love her for who she is. They love her because her family was also wealthy. So, because of that, she refused to associate with them, and her parents were very angry with her. And she said she needs someone who truly loves her and will take care of her for who she is.

‎Coincidentally, Isabella met Mark at a small community event. Mark's dressing was very simple, and there was nothing about him that suggested he was wealthy. After her conversation with Mark, she discovered he was different. He treated her with respect. He listened to her whenever she talked, and that is what Isabella wanted. She needed a man who would take care of her, respect her, not someone who would rule her and command her anyhow. Mark also admired Isabella because she didn't care about money or expensive things.
‎They get close to each other, and they like each other.

‎Isabella still has a misunderstanding with her parents. While they were shouting for her to go and get a man, she told them she had a man already. They were surprised. Her mother asked Who was that? Out of curiosity, Isabella said she would invite him over. After she invited him over, her parents mocked her and said she made the wrong choice. Despite their effort, she didn't give up on Mark because she knew there was something about Mark. He's a pure-hearted man. So her parents told her that if she got married to this man, they wouldn't support her in anything; she would be on her own. She stood beside him in everything and also encouraged him. This made Mark become more intimate with her and love her very much.

‎One evening, Mark decided to tell Isabella the truth. And so he took her to a beautiful house and handed her the keys. Isabella stared at him in confusion and asked, Mark, what is this? Mark answered, This is my house. He then revealed that he was not a poor man, as she thought. He's actually wealthy, and she was very shocked and angry at first. Why didn't you tell me? Mark told Isabella that he was looking for someone who could love him even when he had nothing. After Mark explained everything, she forgave him. Isabella told Mark that she would choose him even when he had nothing. Because there is something special about him. Mark was very happy, took Isabella to his parents, and they got married and lived a peaceful life.
