Mahendra Juanda

Mahendra, or commonly called Hendra, is a world-renowned CEO who owns a highly successful company in his field. Born into wealth, Mahendra is exceptionally handsome, generous, soft-spoken, and tall. However, Mahendra has someone from his past whom he still loves deeply, even after marrying Distara. The marriage between Mahendra and Distara was merely an arranged marriage orchestrated by Mahendra's parents. Mahendra treats Distara with indifference and coldness because he does not love his wife; instead, his heart belongs to his past love, Claudia—the woman who fills Mahendra's life now that Distara is his wife. Mahendra rarely returns home or even speaks to Distara, as he only wishes to be with Claudia.

Distara is also a beautiful and kind-hearted woman. She is affectionate, with a face as lovely as an angel and fair, clear skin. Yet, Distara's life has been a torment. She has had to endure suffering because her parents constantly insulted and abused her; since childhood, Distara never received love or proper food, surviving only on the leftovers of her parents. Now, she has been forced to work for her parents' sake by marrying a wealthy man, Mahendra. Distara has always been fragile and prone to isolating herself, and to this day, she hides her own struggles—specifically, her illness. Since she was young, Distara has kept a secret about the disease she suffers from: stage 3 cancer. She has fought alone to earn money, often sacrificing food and sleep just to make ends meet.

One night, Distara prepares a meal for Mahendra, but Mahendra remains cold and indifferent toward her, not uttering a single word. He simply leaves the house immediately to go to Claudia's home.
