Desired by the Mafia Don

10 episodes

A young girl named Ava, after enduring a tragic childhood of being betrayed by her mother, resiliently seeks a new life in New York. By a twist of fate, she interviews for a high-paying nanny job, only to discover that her employer is the family of Andrew, a mafia leader she had previously and accidentally collided with, and the person she is tasked to care for is Dalia, Andrew's treasured younger sister. The core of the story revolves around the spark-filled, intense relationship between Ava and Andrew. Initially, they are at odds; Andrew is overbearing, cold, and suffers from a severe touch aversion, yet he develops a fierce possessiveness toward Ava, who is unfazed by him. As they spend time together, Ava's strength and vulnerability gradually melt Andrew's icy heart. However, the dangers of the mafia world and internal family conspiracies—particularly a fatal threat from Andrew's uncle—force Andrew to stage a "betrayal" to protect Ava and his sister, pushing Ava away and causing her to leave with a heartbroken heart. After enduring a series of kidnaps, pursuits, life-or-death trials, and agonizing misunderstandings, the truth finally comes to light. When Andrew is critically injured while saving Ava and lies in a hospital bed, he finally confesses all his hidden motives. The story reaches its climax in a profound emotional resolution where the two untie their most painful knots, ready to rebuild trust and love amidst the ruins.
