Emma and Susanna were both kidnapped as children, but were rescued by a passing cleaner, Ivy. With a kind heart, Ivy struggled to raise the two children. Emma grew up with a sense of gratitude, but when Susanna was found by her family at the age of 15, she saw her past as a dark chapter that she wanted to erase, including Emma and Ivy, who had witnessed her darkest moments, so that she could seamlessly become her family's celebrated heiress. She drugged Emma and tried to run her over, but Ivy arrived just in time to push Emma out of the way, sacrificing her life. Undeterred, Susanna hit Emma again with her car to ensure her death. In the nick of time, members of Emma's family found Emma and rushed her to the hospital, saving her life. Susanna always assumed Emma was just an ordinary person abandoned by her parents, unaware that she was actually the sole heiress to a conglomerate. After being found by her grandfather, Emma was groomed as the successor.
