DESCRIPTION: The Tanaka family, guardians of Asia's vastest fortune, are bound by a chilling generational trend: only one heir per generation. Jian Tanaka is that heir, his life overshadowed by the kidnapping of his betrothed, Hana, at the age of five. Years of longing culminate in a drunken one-night stand with a stranger, resulting in an unexpected pregnancy that seemingly fulfills the curse and derails his future. But was this a случайность (coincidence, accident, or chance)? CHARACTERISATION: Female Lead (Aiko): 26 years Background: Orphaned at a young age, experienced fleeting kindness with "Mama Jade," then suffered neglect and maltreatment in an adoptive home. This fostered resilience, a deep-seated fear of dependency, and a fierce desire to protect those she loves. Her past has made her independent, resourceful, and wary of trusting easily. Her pregnancy was a mistake, borne out of innocence and survival, carrying a weight of guilt she has tried to overcome in her new life. Personality: Strong-willed, determined, fiercely independent, deeply caring (especially towards William), with a hidden vulnerability stemming from her past. She is intelligent and has worked hard to build a stable life. Motivation: To provide a secure and loving life for William, ensuring he doesn't experience the hardships she did. Male Lead (Jian Tanaka): 31YRS Background: Sole heir to a vast Asian fortune, his life has been defined by the pressure of legacy and the unresolved trauma of his childhood sweetheart's kidnapping. He carries the weight of the family's "curse" and the immense expectations of his father. Personality: Reserved, serious, intelligent, burdened by responsibility and a hidden longing for a life unburdened by his family's history. He might appear aloof but possesses a capacity for deep connection that was briefly glimpsed during his encounter with the female lead. Motivation: To uphold his family's legacy, navigate the perceived "curse," and perhaps subconsciously, to find a connection that transcends his privileged but constrained existence. Zhang Tanaka (Jian's Father): Background: The powerful and respected patriarch of the Tanaka family. He has built and maintained their vast empire through shrewd business acumen and a strong will. He is deeply invested in the family's legacy and the continuation of the single-heir tradition. The disappearance of Hana deeply affected him and solidified his protective stance towards Jian and the family name. Personality: Refined, authoritative, often stoic, with a sharp intellect and a commanding presence. He prioritizes the family's reputation and future above all else and holds traditional views. He can be demanding and exert considerable pressure on Jian. Motivation: To ensure the Tanaka family's continued success and influence, to see Jian secure the lineage, and to protect the family from any scandal or threat. May Lin: Background: Comes from a wealthy family with established ties to the Tanaka family. She has known Jian for a significant period through these connections. Currently works in Human Resources for one of the Tanaka Group's companies and harbors a strong desire to solidify her position within their influential circle, with romantic intentions towards Jian as a means to amass greater wealth and power. Personality: Ambitious, calculating, and outwardly charming. She is adept at navigating social circles and presenting a favorable image. Beneath the surface lies a strategic mind focused on personal gain. She can be manipulative and possessive, viewing Jian as a valuable asset. Motivation: To increase her own wealth and status by aligning herself with the Tanaka family, ideally through a relationship with Jian. She sees Aiko as a potential obstacle if her connection to Jian were ever revealed. William: Personality: Intelligent, curious, and exceptionally caring for his age. He is Aiko's constant com Setting: Singapore: A vibrant, modern city-state known for its prosperity and strict social hierarchy. It serves as a backdrop where immense wealth exists alongside the struggles of those trying to build a life.
