Born as the sole heir to the powerful Stone clan, the female lead disguised herself as an ordinary office worker to experience a regular life. She soon fell in love with Sebastian, a wealthy heir from a prominent family.
At first, Sebastian doted on her deeply and stood by her side. But pressured by his family, he was drugged and ended up having a child with the scheming Isabella. From then on, he repeatedly hurt the female lead for the mother and child: he pushed her down the stairs, left her for dead after a car crash, used her as a hostage bait, and framed her to be committed to a mental hospital where she endured electric shock therapy.
Heartbroken beyond repair, she staged her own death in a fire and vanished. Later, she returned to her family under a new identity and took over as the clan leader.
She made a stunning appearance at her grand inauguration banquet. Sebastian, who once spurned her, fell apart on the spot. He abandoned his wife and child and chased after her frantically.
Holding solid evidence of all his past crimes, the female lead gradually brought down the Sterling Group. The scoundrel and the scheming woman finally reaped what they sowed. In the end, she ruled a thriving business empire and marched toward a brilliant future on her own.
