Episode 1

Dereck Norton managed the large Norton Group.

The Norton Group had a very large network of perfumeries and cosmetics called "Perfum's Paradise" with several stores spread across many countries.

A company internationally known for the most varied perfumes and cosmetics in the world market. High quality products and quite high prices.

Dereck ran the group with a large "iron" hand. The billionaire CEO was rigid in his decisions.

Dereck was a twenty-eight-year-old man, cold, ambitious, arrogant, and very authoritarian.

He was raised by his father Otto and lived in constant arguments with his brother Savio.

Dereck didn't like to be confronted. His word was the only thing his employees dared not contradict.

An extremely attractive and sensual man, endowed with a captivating beauty, Dereck left his mark wherever he went.

Everyone in the company feared him, only his brother Savio dared to contradict the CEO.

Since Savio was one of the company's shareholders, Dereck couldn't fire him even if he wanted to.

Marta Sulivan, mother of Dereck and Savio, had died in a car accident when Dereck was eighteen years old.

Marta's father, Luiz Sulivan, Dereck's grandfather, owned the Sulivan pharmacy chain, with several pharmacies spread across the country.

The old man had died a week ago from complications from heart surgery.

But before he died, Luiz Sulivan left a will with a very unusual rule. One of his grandsons would have to marry a woman old Sullivan had chosen to be entitled to his inheritance.

In financial terms, the two brothers loved money as if it were their only but most precious possession.

...----------------...

Evelyn Aguiar, twenty-eight years old, had been unemployed for more than three months. She worked tirelessly at a technology company and after almost three years, she was unfairly fired due to the envy of her co-workers.

Evelyn was the public relations manager at this company and performed her duties in an agile, responsible, and competent manner, and this made the other managers jealous of how she grew professionally without flattering anyone.

So, getting together, they plotted against her, causing Evelyn to be fired.

She lives with her twenty-three-year-old sister Micaela in a small two-bedroom house in a neighborhood in Sao Paulo.

Evelyn and Micaela are half-sisters on their father's side and were very close.

Evelyn's mother abandoned her after her birth, her father Gabriel Aguiar, raised his daughter and after a while met Micaela's mother.

The relationship between them was good, but the woman died years later from lung cancer.

From then on, Gabriel closed himself off from relationships, raising his daughters alone, educating them correctly, and working as a driver for Luiz Sulivan.

When Evelyn turned twenty-two, Gabriel died in an accident.

And since then, Evelyn took care of Micaela, with great effort, working to give her sister a better life.

Evelyn hated her mother, even though she had never heard anything about her. Evelyn despised her for abandoning her as a newborn.

But what Evelyn didn't know was that fate would bring many surprises to her life in the future.

Unexpectedly and forced, she will be forced to accept a proposal that was not in her plans.

What will happen to Evelyn Aguiar? That's what we'll see.
