All According to His Heart

Episode 1

Claire Swan is the last to arrive at a gathering, promising her colleagues she'll join them after work. Talk turns to a bet about a man and a woman—how three days supposedly turned into a joke. Someone brags he could win her over with a snap of his fingers, even offering to film it. Then the mood flips: congratulations are thrown at the winner, and a cold line lands—"We're over." A new wager is proposed, and word spreads fast that the boss's ex has split. The episode ends with a chase already underway.

Episode 2

A project with the Jingzhou government hits a snag, and Claire is told to rework the pricing and cooperation plan by morning. Meanwhile, her aunt has other plans—pushing a wealthy divorced man with a child, bragging that he even gifted her a designer bag. Claire refuses, but the aunt plays the debt card: she and the uncle raised her for ten years, so it's time to repay. Claire fires back that she won't quit, insisting she loves her work and would spend her whole life slaving for it. The aunt needles her—husband or boss, who matters more?

Episode 3

Claire stumbles out of an elevator on the wrong floor and apologizes to Niall Hart, praying he didn't overhear her earlier words. He asks pointedly whether she meant what she said about spending her life with him. She insists it was offhand, that she doesn't do affairs. He corrects her—he means marriage. Niall's family is pressuring him too: nearly thirty, unmarried, no partner in sight, his family issuing a death-order to find a wife this year. Niall proposes a mutually convenient marriage, telling Claire she's been good but simply unappreciated. She agrees.

Episode 4

Just like that, Claire is married. Niall reassures her she only needs to keep up appearances during their marriage—and more than that, she should simply do whatever makes her happy. He takes her to his place, since she'll be moving in; no, they won't live apart after marrying. When the aunt calls, furious about a skipped blind date and a fake photo Claire used to brush her off, Niall takes the phone himself and introduces himself as Claire's husband. He promises to handle every formality, including meeting both families. Quietly, he asks if the past years were hard on her.

Episode 5

Settling in, Claire admits she likes the place. Niall tells her to rest while he cooks, but she says she'd feel more comfortable still treating him as her boss. He takes that on himself—maybe he hasn't been a good enough husband yet—and asks for time. Then he leaves for a three-day trip and says he wants her to meet his family when he's back. Her ex calls, demanding to know why she blocked him; Claire ends it cleanly, telling him not to contact her again. A colleague announces she passed the interview at Claire's company.

Episode 6

Over dinner, a colleague gushes about how handsome the boss is—"the boss's beauty, the employee's glory." She presses Claire for gossip: is he dating, married, seeing anyone? Claire says she doesn't really know. Then the boss posts on his social feed, and everyone swoons over a beautiful silhouette, certain she's his perfect match. The office starts guessing who the woman he brought home really is—girlfriend, fiancée, or wife? One coworker leaps to his defense, insisting he's far too clean-cut for a casual fling. Claire stays conspicuously quiet through all of it.

Episode 7

Claire is pulled into a business dinner for the Zhong'an project, introduced to the gathered leaders as the company's young point of contact. She greets them and takes a drink, and someone presses her to toast a senior official again. Then Niall Hart walks in, and the room shifts. He notes he'd heard she was too busy to attend and had regretted it—so his showing up lands as no small statement. The dinner is suddenly about far more than the project, and Claire's position in it is anything but ordinary.

If you like a cold boss who's secretly been planning everything for years, this one's worth a binge—start it tonight.
