The Bride’s Forbidden Guardian

About this drama

The source for this entry is a synopsis of 1,041 characters in six sentences, and four transcription facts come first: the platform joins clauses with one em dash, transcribed here as a comma; the four curly apostrophes, in company's, in groom's, and twice in Victoria's, are transcribed straight; the accented fiancé keeps its accent; and the title prints its apostrophe in Bride's as the curly mark, kept as printed in the title and in the first question below, while the body here transcribes it straight. What the source states: Victoria, the young CEO of the Sterling Group, is forced into a business-arranged marriage by her fiancé, Damian, and her stepmother, Elaine; the wedding is not about love but a power grab, the pen holding an electronic signature chip that hands Damian the company's voting rights the moment she signs; just as everyone waits for her to lower her head, Eva, her temporary bodyguard, publicly intercepts the spiked champagne, smashes the chip inside the pen, and exposes the groom's scheme to seize power; everyone assumes Eva is a low-level bodyguard hired for the occasion, but only she knows she was entrusted with protecting the CEO by Victoria's late mother through a red envelope, and that she holds the first clue to the truth behind the death of Victoria's father all those years ago; and Victoria is not a princess rescued by her bodyguard, she is the woman who, after being forced onto the wedding stage, single-handedly turned the ceremony into a boardroom trial. The premise is one forced bride turning her own wedding into a courtroom, and the source closes on that turn with the trial's outcome unwritten, so no ending is stated. Three catalog facts frame the entry. The run is thirty episodes, one of two entries at the shortest length.
