Because of her mother's carelessness, she ended up living in the countryside.
Less than a year after returning home, her elder sister got into trouble and secretly ran away to avoid blame. For the sake of his daughter and the family, her father threatened her adoptive parents and forced her to take the fall for her sister.
He was convinced that “she” had caused the death of his childhood sweetheart, the woman he had cherished above all others, so he used marriage to punish her. Little did he know, she wasn't the person he thought she was.
For the sake of her adoptive parents and to escape him, the gentle woman underwent a drastic change in personality.
She studied design, went into business, made friends...
She dazzled everyone.
He fell for her, but also realized she wasn't the person he should have hated.
Panicked, he meekly admitted his mistakes and offered her all his family’s wealth, begging her to stay.
