Julian Winslow, the leader of the Winslow Conglomerate, appears gentle and refined on the outside, but is in fact scheming and cold-blooded.

Sam Hughes, an orphan abandoned by her family, is a social butterfly in high society, flitting among numerous men, yet never giving her heart away.

His encounter with her was a twist of fate, an inescapable destiny.

He married her, pampered her, and spoiled her. He meticulously plotted every step against her, exhausting all schemes and vowing to lock her by his side, even going so far as to use their child as bait to trap her.

Then came the night his first love and Sam were taken by the same kidnappers, and Julian had to choose.
He chose his first love.

Sam and her captors went over the edge of a cliff.

When he heard the news of her death, his gentle and refined face remained calm and composed, and he only said 2 words: "I know."

But did he? Did he really know what he had just lost — or what was coming next?

By the time the news of Shalma Hughes's pregnancy reached the Thorne Family of Eldoria—aside from the notification sent to the Old Eldoria Manor—Shalma was already in her seventh month. The Thorne Family made no official gesture, merely dispatching someone to Aethelgard to deliver some nutritional supplements, along with a few sets of baby clothes, pants, and shoes. Miss Laura, however, was absolutely thrilled upon hearing the news. She caught a red-eye flight, rushing straight from Eldoria to Aethelgard.
