Paulina, the daughter of a wealthy businessman, faces pressure from her father to marry a man named Roy for business reasons. Her father believes that she needs a man to help manage the family companies, as he doesn't trust her to run the businesses alone. Despite Paulina's protests that she is capable of managing the companies herself, her father dismisses her abilities, telling her she needs a husband to handle the business world.

Paulina is torn because she is in love with her personal trainer, Irving, who respects her and believes in her capabilities. Her father disapproves of Irving, saying that if she chooses him, she will lose everything—her inheritance and any control of the family business. Paulina's mother, meanwhile, confesses that she too faced similar treatment from her own father and regrets not standing up for herself.

At a family dinner, Paulina makes her decision. Despite the threats from her father, she chooses Irving, declaring her love for him and her belief in her own abilities to start a new company. Her mother supports her decision, while her father remains opposed. In the end, Paulina and Irving leave together, planning to start a new life and build their own business, without the need for her parents' companies.

The story highlights themes of independence, empowerment, and standing up for love and personal values over wealth and family pressure.
