When Aurora Lin was taken into that gorgeous isolated manor on a rainy night, she thought her life had hit the bottom. Becoming the contractual lover of Kane Tanner, the cold, powerful, and unattainable head of the business empire, was the price she paid for her family's debt, and it was also a prison with no end. The manor is as luxurious as a palace, but as cold as a tomb. She is like a canary with broken wings, surviving under absolute control, and her only mission is to give birth to an heir. The birth of twins Alexander and Charlotte did not bring freedom, but instead bound her tighter to this cage. Hatred is the nourishment for her survival, and protecting her children is her only belief. In her eyes, Kane Tanner was an emotionless tyrant, a precision-operated machine, and the source of all her pain. Until a well-planned assassination, the bullet tore Kane's chest and accidentally shattered the indestructible ice shell. Kane, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, was no longer the unreachable controller. Aurora was forced to be the closest observer on his bedside, witnessing his fragility, pain, and even... The secrets about another woman named "Lin" revealed in the feverish whispers, as well as the deep-seated fear of betrayal within the family. A private diary discovered by accident revealed Kane's lonely and cold childhood; a late-night drug attack made her a helpless witness on the verge of his life and death; a vague "Thank you" and a tired "I'm afraid, too" were like ice picks, carving cracks in the high wall she built with hatred.
