Can one person be a prince and a pauper at the same time? Well, for Marcus this is possible. He struggles to get through college on his own by running different errands for his colleagues, even delivering condoms in an emergency and he travels by bike no matter how far he needs to go.
At the same time, Marcus is the heir of a tremendously rich family, who seeks to make him the CEO of the company. From an undermined, bullied boy he becomes a powerful, coveted heir. Marcus will thrive and become a well-respected CEO, but his past will catch up to him and his girlfriend will try to get him back.
Among all the plot twists and unexpected events, it’s curious to see whether, deep inside, Marcus is still the same pauper in love with Hailey and obedient to his colleagues or, if he finally overcame his insecurities and realized his true value.
Going from rags to riches is just a short path for Marcus, but what’s important is that he’s clever enough to not take everything for granted. I like how he bonded with his father and how he coped with his mother’s cheating and abandonment and even with his dad being a murderer. It showed his capability of understanding.

As he is sitting on a bench, he receives a call from one of his colleagues to deliver a package. Chris always bullied Marcus, but the boy still agreed to run the errand for him. All he has to do is deliver a package at Glorious Hotel International, Presidential Suite 1.
Marcus sighs upon seeing the address, he figures that he has to deliver some condoms to one of Chris’s friends, Warren. It must be like the ninth time he delivers to that boy, so he must have a sexually transmitted disease considering the number of girls he beds.
The boy easily gets passed the reception and takes the elevator to Warren’s suite. As expected, the guy opens the door, half naked, eager to take the condoms from Marcus. As the boy stays there with his hand outstretched, waiting for his payment, Warren mocks him.
