After her parents died, a young girl was raised by the man she called uncle—and fell in love with him. Torn by scandal, he hired a fake fiancée to push her away. On her twenty-fourth birthday, she confessed her love, only to watch him leave with the imposter. Heartbroken, she joined a one-way space project he was overseeing.
