After the death of Jocelyn's mother, her father brings home his mistress who then becomes Jocelyn's stepmother. Gradually, she becomes the least favorite person in the family. Her stepmother is mean and her younger sister always bullies her, taking away everything that belongs to her. Meanwhile, the family business is on the verge of bankruptcy due to her father being a gambler and her stepmother and sister being spendthrifts. At this time, they receive an invitation from the Brown family to a bouquet that is intended for the young master of the Brown Family to choose his future fiancee. The news excites Jocelyn's family a lot because if Maria could marry into the Brown family, the family wouldn’t need to worry about money anymore! The stepmother says to Jocelyn, &quot; If your sister could attract Master Aren, even you, a motherless girl, would also be a beneficiary. By then, a lot of boys would fight to marry you to get into our family.” Father says to Jocelyn: &quot; Your sister is so beautiful, I think she will be Mrs. Brown! Maria, let me see your face, the face of the future Mrs. Brown!&quot; At the moment, Jocelyn is glad to be ignored by her family. She just wants to get away from this ridiculous wife-picking affair, but fate seems to be leading her towards… The first time they meet, Jocelyn has a one-night stand with Master Aren.

"Back then when your father's ex-wife was still alive, I was just a poor woman pregnant with you, but I was able to make your father fall in love with me and become Mrs. Wilson."

"Now you are just one step away from becoming Young Master Aren's wife. Don't you know what you should and shouldn't do now? How foolish!" Mrs. Wilson was only half a step away from Maria. Her eyes were glowing with ambition.

Looking at her mother who was normally tender and loving, Maria was shocked. She didn't expect her mother to have such a side.

"I get it!" Maria put down the things in her hand and fell into Mrs. Wilson's arms, sobbing. Her tears flowed down quickly and her anger dissipated a little. "Mother! I still want to punish her. I hate her to the core. Who knows if she will seduce Young Master Aren in the future. I can't allow my Master Aren to be stolen away by her!"

At the thought of Master Aren, a trace of fear flashed across Maria's face.
