The two leads were the absolute worst. Give me a story of the second couple.

Okay so firstly, your dad is going to forcefully transfer his company shares to you unless you get married. Fine. Just transfer them back. 3 minutes and the story is complete. You're welcome.
Other than that, these two people are so toxic they're made for each other. So that's nice. FL is headstrong and independent, or trying to be. Great. But she makes some seriously stupid decisions out of a total lack of situational awareness, and then rather than explain properly she just rages at ML.
He is worse. For someone who has been her secret fan for years, he has absolutely no confidence in her. She's an *sshole in how she speaks to him, but she's not wrong. He never trusted her in her career decisions, her skills, her judgement, or in her day to day life. He forces his way into her work out of jealousy and lack of trust, and then brings nothing of value.
Ribbon dude was pathetic and deliberately engineered awful encounters, but at least he had value in his work. All she did was help him once in passing YEARS ago. The level of obsessed he was in her is exactly why I hesitate before helping a stranger. The only reason ML was so triggered by him specifically is because he recoginsed all his behaviours. All the toxic CEO bullsh*t, engineering meet cutes and causing problems just to white knight in to solves those same problems. ML had already done them all and managed to wife her.
Crazypants actress is a whole different mess. By the time she pulled the stunt with the red dress she needed to be fired and handed a restraining order. If anyone is undeserving of the opportunities they are handed it's her. Girl needs therapy, and every one of them was a clown for letting her anywhere near FLs movie. I'm sorry but why the hell would FL think it makes sense to cast her as herself basically? You already know she's dangerous and wants to BE you, why feed the delusion by casting her as you in your own fanfic?
I liked the second couple, they were a mess but in a much healthier way. Even though her family were mental, they were still better as a whole than the main couple.
Seriously, this views like they ran out of story after about 6 episodes and just photocopied previous pages of the script. "Quit this job, I can give you whatever you want, you're only doing it so you can screw around" "F U I want to earn my career, not be handed it, and I am faithful to you even though I'm a d*ck about it" "Okay sorry hun, my bad, I'll trust you more and believe in you". And then just do that 5 more times.

The acting was fine. It wasn't their problem the story sucked. The music was fine too, though that main song was way overused (the usual issue). The story was awful.
