Synopsis
Enigmatic six-year-old aristocrat chooses emotionless engagement to Cárcel, whose obsession grows as he unravels her unsettling indifference.
Inés Valeztena de Perez, a prodigious six-year-old from an esteemed family, shocks everyone by choosing Cárcel Escalante de Esposa as her fiancé—a decision that defies all expectations given her prestigious background. While Cárcel believes her choice stems from genuine affection, he struggles to connect with her peculiarly detached demeanor and finds himself drawn to other relationships. Their unusual engagement takes a stranger turn when Cárcel discovers that Inés seems entirely indifferent to his transgressions, viewing their future marriage through a lens he cannot comprehend. This unsettling revelation begins to shift something fundamental between them, as Cárcel finds himself increasingly obsessed with understanding the enigmatic girl who chose him above all others. What lies beneath Inés' emotionless facade and her inexplicable decision forms the heart of this unconventional tale of engagement, where nothing is quite as it appears and every action carries hidden depths yet to be revealed.
Nobody understands why the brilliant six-year-old Inés Valeztena de Perez picked Cárcel Escalante de Esposa as her fiancé. Considering her family's high status, she could have easily married the crown prince and led an outstanding life as the empress. Cárcel grew up believing that Inés loved him deeply, despite her eerily emotionless demeanor and understated style. But, put in a difficult position against his will, he harbored no affection for such a dull person and instead turned to countless other women behind her back. Cárcel's whole reality crumbles when Inés catches him in the act—because she does not care whatsoever. She intends to turn a blind eye to his infidelity even after tying the knot, which leaves Cárcel in complete disbelief. Inés' indifference ignites a perverse desire inside Cárcel, and he abruptly loses interest in everyone else. However, there is a reason behind each of Inés' actions, and it all started when she took her own life for the very first time.
