Kallie married Jake to repay a debt of gratitude, only to suffer three years of cold neglect, humiliation from his mistress Sarah, and cruelty from his mother Shirley. After being forcibly sterilized, she set three chances for Jake to protect her, and he failed every time. She earned her freedom with her rare restoration skills, paid off her debt, and discovered she was pregnant again. This time, she fought back. She took Jake, Sarah, and Shirley to church court. With evidence stacked against them, the marriage was annulled. Kallie walked free, her enemies jailed or exiled. She became the crown's restorer, raised her daughter Hope, and never looked back.
