The Wait That Failed

Clara Hayes was disappointed that Nolan Ashford didn't propose to her, so she took the initiative to marry someone else. Afterwards, Nolan hurriedly arrived, but proposed to postpone the proposal, the reason being to first invite Samantha Caldwell as the concubine. Clara finally realized that Nolan and Samantha's relationship was extraordinary. Later, after Samantha repeatedly provoked her and Nolan remained biased towards Samantha, she completely lost heart for Nolan and eventually left her hometown to marry Alexander Rutledge. Nolan regretted it and chased after her all the way, but it was too late.
