Serenity Carter and Nathaniel Parker were childhood sweethearts, and Nathaniel made a promise to marry Serenity after graduating. On the day of graduation, Serenity happily ran to the Civil Affairs Bureau wearing a wedding dress and holding a rose, only to find that it was just a game Nathaniel was playing to make wealthy girl Allison Westwood happy. In despair, Serenity gave roses to the worker Eric Brooks and expressed her willingness to marry him, unaware that Eric was actually the heir of the richest man.
