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. The second time they meet, Master Aren gets out of the car in front of Jocelyn's family and grabs her wrist. &quot; Do you think you can run away from me again?” Later, Mr. Brown announced that his future wife will be—Jocelyn.

Hearing Aren's voice through the blanket, Jocelyn's body stiffened for a moment.

Even if her breathing was really not getting irregular right now, and the irregularity of breathing reminded her of the suffocating feeling when Miles grabbed her neck, Jocelyn still clenched the blanket tightly, as if under the blanket, she was in a different world with Aren.

Before the redness on her face was completely gone, Jocelyn did not want to see Aren again.

Jocelyn shook her head and wanted to speak, but when she realized that she could not make a sound at this moment, she pulled the blanket down a little to reveal half of her face. She looked at Aren and then shook her head to indicate that she did not feel suffocated.

Jocelyn shifted her gaze to the door, hoping that Aren would understand her message and leave the room immediately.

Although Jocelyn could not speak, her eyes perfectly expressed what was on her mind.
