Side consort Wren enters the marquis' household alone. She gives birth to her first daughter, who recognizes Lady Jane Grove as her legal mother. Later, she gives birth to two sons. With Dowager Lady Grove's and the household head's approval, Wren gains privileges: owns private property and enters the ancestral hall. Lady Jane Grove is kind and sympathizes with the biological mother. Wren abides by her duties, securing a stable life between legal status and her children.
